Olive Way 106

I love this house, I have been renting it for at least 6 years for three and 1/2 weeks at a time. I have been through change of ownership and actually know the neighbors. Over the years, during my stay the washer/dryer have been replaced and the refrigerator. It is NOW TIME FOR STOVE TO BE REPLACED. I do a lot of cooking during my stay, the top of stove only has one eye that works consistently and the oven has issues as welll, the heating element is partially burnt out. Stove needs replacing.

Manager's Response

had a great getaway weekend with girlfriends! The rental was very nice, clean and in a great location.

We had a wonderful Christmas vacation on the Island.

My family and I visited St. Simons for Labor Day weekend this year and this is where we stayed. Everything was perfect. We loved it!

Loved the area and small town feel. Restaurants were great. (Southern Soul was the best barbeque we ever had.)The house had lots of room. We did have an infestation of mosquitos, some bugs & think if the landscaping were taken care of a little better and having it spraying for insects may help. (Grass cut, shrubbery cut, back porch cleaned) Stove broke, but maintenace came quickly and fixed it. Gas grill would be nice to have instead of the charcoal. Plasticware for smaller children instead of all glassware. Loved the location, the space, the parking was fabulous and the furniture was very comfortable. Thank you for such a pleasant group of people to rent from in the office at Real Escapes. They were so easy to work with, love the laid back feel, and all the personel were very nice. I want to rent from them from now on. Thank you so much!

The house was in pretty good condition and the walk to the beach was not bad at all. Nice floor plan and the porches were great. The kitchen was a little small and the stove didn't work. There are only two regular burners. When we called about it, we were told someone had to come over a "trouble shoot" it before they would contact a repair person. We managed to wiggle it around and get it working but the stove should really be replaced. The rental agency was very nice and easy to work with. This unit has extra parking because it's on the end. Lots of traffic on that street as there are only a few ways to get back to Wood Ave. Overall very nice. We enjoyed our stay.

I have been staying at this house for three weeks every year for the past seven years. Real estate properties has always helped me anytime Ive called and needed something Jan especially has always been a great help . I will say in the seven years Ive been coming nothing much has changed in the house the furniture is all the same no updates have been made . The house is always clean and appreciate that . I do feel like however its time for an upgrade maybe a new couch ?

It was a lovely property however we had two people with knee issues. I didn't realize that the main living area was on second floor. We made it work! Kitchen area was nice. The outside patio off the main area was perfect for our morning coffee! Living area only had an L shape sofa and 1 Adirondack chair. Could have used another comfy side chair.

rented for two of my children and their families for their brothers wedding weekend. it was 1 block from my home so whas in perfect location.

The condo was inviting, clean and charming. Loved all the balconies, close to the beach and everything. Delightful!

We had a great time at this home. It was a short walk to the beach and was nice and roomy. The kitchen was well equipped. The beds were comfortable and the lcommon areas were great.

I had a great time in this house. Certainly very spacious. The outdoor spaces could use some cleaning. They were a little musty and dusty. But after taking a day to clean that, I really enjoyed the house! Quiet and close to the beach!

We have stayed at this property for the last 2 winters (6 weeks each). It is a very spacious unit allowing numerous rounds of friends and family to visit comfortalbly and with maximus privacy. Two bedrooms on first floor, 2 on 3rd floor. The location is perfect; only five minute walk to the beach so hopping out of bed and enjoying a sunrise each day is a pleasure. The screened in porch on the second floor is great, as is the large deck.

The unit is very dated but adequate. It's a beach house and does not insist on perfect housekeeping. Carpets, upholtered furniture and heavy bedspreads sould be deep cleaned or replaced. Arrangement and quality of furniture in the living room could be more accommodating. Bedroom TV's should be upgraded. Stove in kitchen definitely needs to be replaced. A house that sleeps 8 people needs a good working cooktop and only 2 burners are working adequately. Otherwise the kitchen is well appointed. Screens on a few more windows would be nice when air conditioning is unnecessary. Zoned heating works well. Privacy shades or curtains in the bedrooms would be appreciated.

Though we see many upgrades that would increase the value and enjoyment of this property, overall it is a winner. Location - location - location!!

We had a great stay at 106 Olive Way. The condo is very clean and had a great atmosphere. Plenty of room with all the bedrooms. Great location and a very pleasant short walk to the beach.

Very good accommodations for out of town relatives..good location well maintained.

This property was perfect for our group. There were 5 of us on different schedules. We had plenty of room and the the location was perfect.

Rental was very clean was exactly as stated on their website only 2 or 3 minute walk to beach,nice deck,plenty of room and very easy access to everything

Great location and lay out for multiple families. I feel like the owner needs to reduce the number of dishes in the cabinets so that there is more room to store food and such but that's a minor issue. The internet was out about half of our time there, which was a much larger issue. I understand that the problem is Comcast but it might be time to change providers, if possible.
On the positive side, there were tons of towels and such, which was fabulous. I also love having a washer / dryer, particularly at the beach.

It was a wonderful experience. The management staff was particularly attentive to our needs, and friendly.

Loved the location. Easy walk to the beach

This was our third year to spend February on St. Simon's Island and our first time at 106 Olive Way. The location is wonderful - a five minute walk to the beach. The condo was spacious enough for us to host numerous friends who visited us while we were here. On arrival, we had a few minor issues that were taken care of promptly and cheerfully by Real Escapes. The property decor and furnishing are dated and worn but entirely adequate. We plan to return to the same unit next year.

This was a perfect accommodation for part of our family from the Midwest who rarely get to the beach.Plenty of room and great location.

Good Experience

One of our favorites, great family house.

The people at Real Escapes are always wonderful to deal with. They make checking in and out very easy and whatever question I have about the property, they answer it

Our vacation rental experience was excellent!! The rental was very clean when we arrived and was very spacious! It was perfect for a girls get away trip!! We would definitely recommend this rental to friends and family!

Fabulous property! Perfect for a group of girls!

We had several families that came down and we rented 2 homes. The families who stayed in this home were so astounded by how nice it was. We liked it so much we have already reserved for next year.

Enjoyed our stay and loved the location.

Perfect layout for 2-3 families. Has all needed amenities. Great location. Don't miss the Southern Soul Barbeque.

the property behind this unit is rented to spring breakers in March. It can be quite noisy during this month.

Great long weekend.

Rather than guests in a hotel, we felt like welcomed family members in this great condo. It was so well equipped and organized. There were labels on every shelf in every room. It was very helpful to have a place for everything and everything in its place. We always knew where to return items. The owners left beach equipment, kitchen staples (oil, salt, sugar, etc.), books, toys, and so much more. It was a unique and lovely experience. We look forward to returning.

We had a great time and the extras the condo had (a few beach towels, chairs and cart to take to the beach) were so very helpful! We did find a few roaches in the kitchen, but we know that is to be expected at the beach. We hope to return soon!

The was the best kept up property and cleanest we have stayed in on the Island. We have used Real Escapes three times with very good success. It is a good company and we are confident that our stay and reservation will always be top notch.

Upon arriving we found the carpets in need of cleaning. There were spots on the 3rd floor carpets , stairs and on the blue carpet downstairs, very noticeable. Other than the carpets, the place was spotless. Noise levels from the condo behind were unbearable in March-they were students who played in the frisbee tournaments. This prompted us to call the police 3 different times after being awakened out of sleep in the middle of the the month of February it was quiet and peaceful and relaxing. Overall, the condo was very good, sunny and airy and had everything we needed in the kitchen for cooking.May want to get a new mattress in the upstairs master bedroom,it sinks in the middle. Real Escapes staff was most helpful in solving all of the issues we had. They are a great company to work with and rent through..
