Welcome to Island Sand Dollar!

A 3BR/2BA cozy, one-level beach cottage that sleeps up to 9 total guests, Island Sand Dollar is updated and offers 'Beachfront' views at 'Across the Street' pricing!

In addition to the best Gulf views, the living room offers additional sleeping with a Queen size sleeper sofa and a large, flat screen TV and DVD player. Just beyond the living room is a well-equipped kitchen with stainless steel appliances and granite countertops, and laundry closet with full size washer/dryer.

The West side Master bedroom has a comfortable King-sized bed with large, flat screen TV, Gulf views and a sliding door that opens onto the beachside sundeck. This bedroom also has an en-suite bathroom with tiled shower.

On the opposite end of the home are two more bedrooms and a full bathroom w/ combination tub/shower. The bunk bedroom has a twin-over-full bunkbed and the Queen bedroom has a TV, Gulf views and a sliding door that opens onto the sundeck. The beachside sundeck is a great place to take in the Gulf view during the day and to count the endless stars at night.

After a day at the beach, rinse off in the hot/cold enclosed outdoor shower and settle into the shaded lounge area underneath the house with lazy hammock and additional seating, a great place to get out of the sun but still enjoy the Gulf breeze.

Beach access is directly across the street via a sandy beach path. Less than a 20 second walk finds your toes in the sand! If surf fishing, be sure to bring your catch back for grilling. We have a fish cleaning sink w/ hose and park-style charcoal grill for your convenience.

Sorry, we no longer allow pets.

Beds: 1 King, 1 Queen, 1 Triple bunkbed (1Twin/1Double), 1 Queen sleeper sofa

The property was great. Even though across the street, you could still see the water from the porch

We had a great time on our first trip to St George Island. And we enjoyed our stay at Island Sand Dollar very much. The House was very nice and accommodating for our family. We loved being able to watch the dolphins each morning and afternoon whether from the front porch or on the beach which was only steps away from the house.

Amazing location steps to the beach

The location of this property was just amazing! Steps from the beach and ocean views when you wake up! The property was clean and was well stocked for a VRBO. I would stay here again and I would also recommend to others. There are steps, so if you're not able to use steps this could be a difficult property.

Perfect size, perfect location, great value

My family of 5 includes three young children. The house was perfect for our family size, and we loved the easy beach access! The kitchen was great, the beds and furniture were comfortable, and the hammock below the house was a huge hit. It felt so homey that my kids didn't want to leave! We would absolutely stay here again and recommend it to anyone looking for a great house at a great value on St. George Island.

Lovely, clean first tier home

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Island Sand Dollar was the 11th home we’ve rented on SGI, and easily one of our favorites. We immediately noticed upon arrival how clean the home was—much cleaner than most we’ve rented. The decor is lovely, and the home was configured nicely four our family of four. We loved sitting on the newly re-decked porch to watch the sun set and the convenient beach access trail just across the street from the driveway. The kitchen is so well stocked, we were surprised. Overall, we loved this home and will likely rent it again.

Great Stay at Island Sand Dollar - Summer 2016

Don - We had a GREAT stay at Island Sand Dollar (ISD) this summer (14 nights!!). Your house is great! Access to the beach is quick and easy, which is one reason we chose ISD! We especially enjoyed the area under the house with the hammock and sitting area.....a great place to sit, enjoy the breeze and read a book!! The kids loved the outdoor shower!! No complaints, but if I did have one suggestion, it would be to provide some additional cooking items, e.g. a basic oven cookie sheet and a large casserole dish. Again, thanks for allowing us to rent your home and thanks again for a great two weeks!

Paradise

This is our second stay at Island Sand Dollar and it's as perfect as it was our last visit. The house is so comfortable, has everything you could possibly need and is an oasis of peace and quiet. You can sit on the porch, watching the waves, birds and breeze and find peace in your soul. The bed is so comfortable, the livingroom is the perfect place to recline on the comfy sofas and read or gaze out the windows, this truly is a place of recharging your batteries. We were delayed by the hurricane that hit our area and Jamie was wonderful working with us to make our time here work, can't thank you and the property owners enough for that. We will be coming back to Island Sand Dollar again and again and again, a home away from home.

weather alerts

Lindsey was particularly kind, courteous and friendly! Despite the weather, I thoroughly enjoyed my birthday stay on the island--my favorite place to be! (And this house is next door to the one I regularly rented and leased from a friend for many years. I love the location. The shower head in the master bathroom was wonderful and therapeutic to my back and neck. I loved the decor and openness of the living area. A couple suggestions: Since the view is restricted by houses and vegetation, pruning the tops of the shrub next to the palm (beautifully kept) would help. The heat seems to blow almost constantly even tho it's set on auto and it feels colder than the temp as if a fan is blowing on you.
