About this property

Happiness Bay: Saint George Island Waterfront Luxury

  • Saint George Island may be the best-kept secret in Florida. It's unspoiled natural beauty and laid-back vibe make it ideal for people who want to unplug and unwind. No high rises, stoplights, street lights, or billboards. On our end of this 26-mile-long barrier island, there's only one road. We're on the Apalachicola Bay side, but the Gulf beach is across the street, with private beach access for our guests. You can watch the sunrise on the beach, and sunsets from our private dock or hot tub. Many of Saint George Island's vacation rentals are large homes that rent only by the week. We designed Happiness Bay Studio for two people, for any length of stay, so you can make a quick escape to Saint George whenever your schedule allows. The space is designed for luxury and convenience. The kitchenette has a mini fridge/freezer, microwave, toaster oven, toaster, double hot plate, coffee pot, with coffee, oil, and spices. This is a ground-floor studio apartment with private entrance and self check-in via digital lock. The hosts occupy the second and third floors of the home.

Such a beautiful and comfortable property! We loved going out on the dock each morning to fish and enjoy our coffee! We sat out on the porch to read and relax - it is back off road and so private! Size is just perfect for two people. This was not our first stay at Happiness Bay and I’m positive it won’t be our last!

This beach is great! The unit is as shown in the photos—small, perfect for two people. It has everything you need, but I would recommend adding a rack, hooks or something to hang wet towels and bathing suits. Maybe outside the side door? I would love to relax outside, but the bugs and mosquitos make it difficult to enjoy it.

Beach & Bay

Great location! On the bay but a quick walk to the beach. The SGI State Park was amazing. The place was nice for the 2 nights we stayed. Wish we would have stayed longer to explore the island more and had more time on the beach, which by the way was empty! Great for relaxing.

Very quiet, good for nature viewing. Space for two adults quite adequate, charmingly decorated, toaster oven and microwave but no stove top…one of the best locations on St George Island.

Happiness Bay getaway

This property was exactly as described and was perfect for a quick retreat to SGI. It had all the kitchen essentials, was very clean and we enjoyed the dock and close proximity to the beach. Daniel and Salem were very welcoming and friendly. We would certainly stay at this property again!
