Great relaxing getaway for my husband and 2 kiddos. Easy access to the beach and pool was perfect for what we wanted. Beach bum cottage had everything we needed, clean, and great location. We rented a golf cart from the property manager, and that was a fun added bonus to our stay on the island. We will be back!

This location was excellent, the beach was right across the street and a short walk over the dune boardwalk. The cottage was clean and bright. The kitchen was well supplied. The downtown area was just a 20 minute walk. The area was very quiet, not much traffic at all.

Great stay

Beach Bum is one of the few smaller places in St George, perfect for 2-4 people. Steps away from the beach, refreshing pool, and very cute neighborhood. Good communication with the manager too.

Our stay was perfect. Not a huge house, but perfect size for what we were looking for. We spent more time across the street at the beach! So close and easy to set up our beach spot and come home for lunch, or a dip in the pool!! ♥️
