Just this year, we have started handling rentals and offering a very competitive fee for our property management services. If you plan a visit to St. Simons Island or the Golden Isles area, I hope you will give us the opportunity to arrange your lodging or if you own a rental property in Glynn County we would like to discuss our service with you. Our office is located in the heart of the Village Area on St. Simons Island, and is a great location for visitors and tourists to the area.

 

I hope to hear from you! 

Only 41 hotels and 17 restaurants in the United States met Mobil’s criteria to earn the coveted five-star standard this year and only 125 hotels made the four-star mark. The Lodge at Sea Island located on St. Simons Island and the Georgian Room restaurant at The Cloister both were awarded 5 stars in the 2008 Mobil Travel Guild ranking. In addition The Cloister Hotel and the new Spa at Sea Island were honored with a 4-star rating for this year.

 

Three other facilities in the Golden Isles earned 3-star ratings: The King and Prince Beach and Golf Resort on St. Simons Island, the Jekyll Island Club Hotel on Jekyll Island and the Lodge on Little St. Simons Island.

The Golden Isles of GA is definitely a premier destination and I personally hope you will look me up at Beachcomber Properties in the heart of the Village on St. Simons Island when you visit. 

Certainly I do not have a crystal ball or a prophet on staff, but do firmly believe that we have reached the “bottom” of the real estate pricing. If you have been holding back and waiting for the perfect time to purchase a home, don’t wait any longer. Allow me to repeat: “Take advantage of the price reductions and the abundance of wonderful inventory and do it NOW.” I feel I would be negligent if I did not communicate this to you as I feel very strongly that the best time to buy real estate is today. 

 

Please contact me if you have any questions or need my assistance.

I recently read an article in USA Today about the frequent incidence of bedbug invasion! The problem, according to the article, is due to an increase in cheap air travel to exotic locations where this pest wasn't eliminated and also the ban on pesticides like DDT which were effective and had longer lasting effect on the little buggers. Also, the name bedbugs is really a misnomer as they can live it cracks and crevices on the floor, behind picture frames and in your clothing in addition to your mattress and bed linens. Now that I have completely and utterly grossed you out, some tips for not getting them in the first place follow:

In this day of blinking lights and animated Santas and such, perhaps we would all find a return to the 1800's a special experience to remember.

On Friday, 11/30/07 and Saturday, 12/1/07, Christmas on the Old Plantation will offer us a glimpse into Christmas as it was celebrated during the 1850's on a Southern rice plantation.
