This property is located in a secluded and gated part of the island and right on the beach with spectacular views of the gulf and the wildlife. The kitchen is very well stocked. Much more like a home kitchen. We were able to make Thanksgiving dinner with ease. The rooms are very well insulated so we didn’t disturb anyone’s sleep even with six adults in the house. The host was responsive and easy to work with. We had no issues.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and loved this location!!
This was our first-time experiencing St George Island; we had no idea of what to expect. But were pleasantly pleased as this house was a perfectly fit for our family. Being so close to the beautiful beach and our private pool only steps away... we felt we were in paradise!
Although this house showed some age, the spacious living quarters, well equipped kitchen and large area for family time activities made for a perfect vacation! This location provides the privacy and seclusion we were looking for with groceries and some restaurants a short drive away. The Plantation area is beautiful!
No complaints here but do wish there were more eating choices as restaurants are limited. Thankfully this house was well equipped to allow us the room and utensils to cook many of our own meals in house. Which only created more family time of being together. A bit pricey, ... but overall, well worth it! Property manager, Stephanie, was easy to communicate with and provided answers to all our questions! We are already talking of a return trip!

Not sure where to start! This vacation was tremendous. There were a total of 12 family members staying for the week ranging in ages from 4 to 57. The house was clean, very spacious, well stocked with kitchen ware, grill equipment, etc. The location of this property is incredible. Being on the well maintained Plantation is so worth the money. We rented bicycles, kayaks and a jet ski and had the time of our lives. The unbelievable sunsets every night from “The Cut” which is a short walk down the beach, were incredible! We had professional family pictures taken from there one evening and they turned out so beautiful!
The beach in front of the property is basically all yours. Very private feel! The pool was so great to have especially in the evenings!
The property manager, Stephanie Hendrix, was in close contact throughout the process and made sure everything was in proper order before and during the stay. I highly recommend this property if you are looking for a relaxing, private and wonderful vacation. We definitely want to go back in the future!!

Wonderful week for 8 friends in a great property. Plenty of room and beautiful views. Pool was spotless and each bedroom has a private bath. Only wish there had been an elevator…lots of steps!

The house is very comfortable. The kitchen is very well quipped. The beds were very comfortable. The house provided beach towels which is a help when you fly. The pool is a nice size.
The Plantation is a great place to stay on the island.

The house was very clean and had recliners, which I loved. Very rarely have comfortable chairs in beach rentals. Short walk to beach and the weather was beautiful all week. Enjoyed the stay at this house with my family, plenty of room for everyone.

The property is amazing and the beaches are beautiful. We had a really great time!
My only complaint is for the price, I felt it should have been a little more well kept. There was what looked like mold on the vents inside and the pool was cracked in several places.
But we still had a great time and you can't beat the location!

Great Home for Family Vacation
My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Pirate’s Booty! The home is spacious and well stocked. Great amenities such as a toilet on the ground floor (which was perfect for the kids using the pool), beach towels, a high chair and more! We had great communication with the property manager as well. We would definitely stay here again!

Great spot on a quiet street! It was spacious and each room had a full bathroom. It was one of the only houses in the area on the beach with its own pool. We visited during Feb, so didn’t get to use the pool but it was large. The house came well stocked with kitchen supplies and beach accessories (chairs, etc). We hope to return again in the future!

My family and I (7 adults) stayed at this property for a week and it was perfect for us. The location, space, pool, views, and proximity to the cut were exactly what we wanted. Plus there was plenty of space to have snacks and a coffee bar without crowding up in the kitchen.
Speaking of coffee - the Keurig at this place is amazing! The home also had a high chair and a pack-n-play for those who need it, and several beach/pool toys (uncommon!). The owner also provided dedicated beach towels (uncommon!!) and allowed outdoor smoking (uncommon!!)
The property was very clean, available on time, and all correspondence with the owner was seamless. She even left us a hand-written card thanking us for choosing to stay there. How thoughtful! You enter the home from the ground level and take stairs to the main floor where there's the kitchen and living space (with porch access), one bedroom, and a bathroom. The second floor has four bedrooms and bathrooms, two of which have access to another porch. SO MUCH SPACE!! There's also a dedicated toiler outside the pool area for extra convenience.
I guess I can see how some prior reviewers might have been disappointed in some aspects of the home, but it really didn't make sense to us.
- The pool was very clean and in perfect working order - the tiles are showing their age and it may be on the update or upgrade list in the next few years but it was perfect for us.
- The boardwalk was fine. No loose boards, no exposed nails, no issues whatsoever.
- The vegetation around the boardwalk is just life on the SGI. It provides nice shade for the pool, keeps the temperature cooler, protects the dunes, and offers habitat for birds and frogs. Even so, it was well maintained and not "overgrown."
The only (minor) critique anyone had was that the beds squeaked if you toss and turn in your sleep and they were a little hard. Even with that said, we all slept well.
BOTTOM LINE: we will stay here again without hesitation!

Read some negative reviews that were not what we experienced. The home was clean the kitchen had everything needed, the decking was in good repair, the pool was sparkling, views spectacular. Stephanie is a great host/manager. We didn’t need her and she didn’t bother us. Been going to the island since 1969 (they built the first bridge in ‘65) and this was one of the family’s best of times.

I can only assume that most of the folks who have criticized this property have either never stayed in a VRBO home (or rental property in general) or have never been to or appreciate all-things-St. George Island or both. The house is lovely... it was clean and fully stocked. Yes, the path to the beach is surrounded by vegetation (welcome to St. George) and no, the hot tub didn't work (but it's not actually a hot tub). Stephanie was great and I would not hesitate to stay here again.

Pirates Booty was an awesome place for our family/ friends fall break vacation. During the pandemic, this place gave us the privacy and distance needed with none of the sacrifice. The house is a bit older but met every need. Steps from the house to the pool to the beach! We will be back!
