Goodbread House B&B

Really nice location. And the french toast was out of this world!

The Goodbread House is a bed and breakfast right in the center of Historic St. Marys. Good restaurants and a great bar are within easy strolling distance. The Cumberland Island ferry dock is also nearby. The "suites" (bedroom and huge bathroom) are named after famous lovers (Rhett and Scarlett, etc.) and decorated accordingly with antiques. The innkeeper, Mardja, is friendly and helpful. The breakfast was rich and delicious. Third stay there.

This was a great experience in a beautiful quaint village. The owner was very friendly and made sure all needs were met. I would recommend this place to my friends.

The house was well appointed clean and quiet. A bit musty as is to be expected in an older seacoast home. Very convienent to Cumberland Island ferry but you do have to request breakfast to be prepared much earlier than they are accustomed to. We missed ours in our anxiety over getting to the ferry on time.

The Goodbread House provided a comfortable stay in an excellent location. The owner and staff are fantastic people. We look forward to visiting again.

As a launch point for Cumberland Island, this B&B is fine, but with microwave-reheated breakfasts, very kitchy/dusty decor, and a creepy mannequin looking down on the front walk from the third floor, this felt really expensive for mediocrity.

breakfasts were great. host was attentive. room a little fusty. bathroom not up to expectation.

The Goodbread House B&B was the perfect place to celebrate our anniversary. We stayed in the "Guinevere and Lancelot" Suite and couldn't have been more pleased with the decor and furnishings. Lots of room in the bathroom. It even had a fireplace. The upstairs porch was right off our room which was so convenient and we enjoyed sitting out there in the evening and snacking on the delicious goodies provided by the inn. Our breakfast was at 8:00 a.m. and was absolutely delicious. Very friendly innkeeper and housekeeper and so accomodating. We felt as though we had known them for a long time. We would definitely stay here again. St. Mary's is a beautiful town. Thank you for a great stay.

A true hidden gem. Veranda with swing and sitting room were great focal points to meet other guests. The breakfast was out0of-this-world good. Interesting town (even if you don't plan to visit Cumberland Island).

Mardja, our hostess, was very nice, and tried to accommodate our needs. The house and decor were lovely, and exceptionally clean. We were delighted that their was no musty smell that is often found in an old house.

My husband and I had the opportunity to stay at the Goodbread house the weekend of 05/20-05/22/11. We made reservations online and everything was done for us from dining certificates to ferry reservations by Marja. We were greeted by Marja and she was wonderful and outgoing. The house appeared at first to be a little to many antiques, but after sitting in it and experiencing the old house it became charming. Our room was the Lancelot and Genevierre. It was very clean and large. The bathroom was fantastic.. We slept very well and enjoyed the veranda outside our room with the great swings overlooking the downtown street. Marja even let us bring our own coffee from home and use a coffee pot in the kitchenette each morning. We enjoyed breakfast each morning and cake in the evening. We will definitely come back for the Romance Package. We brought our bikes with us and rode all over the city. We recommend the Silver Star Steakhouse, ribeye dinner!!! Thank you Marja...

A quite lovely house is a quite lovely town. Quiet and peaceful. Met other quests who were very friendly and social.

We came to Cumberland Island intending to camp but the camp reservations were full. So rather than an ordinary boring hotel experience - we found the Goodbread Bed & Breakfast online - the online reservation process was easy and informative. The pictures were a great representation. Our stay was wonderful! The room was darling- down to every lil detail. The staff was friendly, helpful and accommodating. Couldn't have asked for anything better!

The Goodbread House is an excellent value and at a great location for those going to Cumberland Island. Mardja is an excellent hostess and does a great job attending to her guests' needs.

We were in transit going home to Canada from Florida and found the Goodbread house a perfect place to stop. We certainly will comeback.

Breakfast was very good and filling. The decor was charming, full of antiques. Hospitality was friendly and professional. Lots of accommodations such as a small kitchen and refrigerator to keep food and drinks cold. Plenty of coffee, tea, snacks, and drinks. It was a wonderful stay.

Upon arrival we were greeted by the owner and inn keeper, Mardja, who is just a delightful lady and so knowledgeable about the area. We felt "at home" from the start. She was most helpful to us in all aspects of our visit purpose. The rooms are decorated with theme art and period pieces that depict the "Hollywood and poetic lovers" for which they are named. Breakfast was a wonderful experience - we are looking forward to our return visit and staying in another "special couples'" room.

Mardja and her staff went above and beyond to make our stay special. We felt at home and very comfortable.

We spent 3 nights at the Goodbread House. Although the owner was away, all the staff we met were extremely friendly and helpful. The location is excellent and the rooms were very spacious and comfortable. We appreciated the refrigerator and microwave. The breakfasts were too heavy and rich for our tastes, but that is a personal preference.

This was our second visit to Goodbread House during the Holiday season (2009 + 2010). The house is beautifully decorated, the hostess is charming. Ms. Gray prepares marvelous breakfast feasts and we have always enjoyed the other guests.

My wife and I enjoyed the room, breakfast, atmosphere, and hospitality. We had a great time. We will stay there again.

It was a delightful place to stay. The breakfasts were outstanding. Diane dealt with many unexpected situations in a gracious and competent manner. Enjoyed the other guests and the community as a whole.

I really had a wonderful experience staying at this Bed and Breakfast Inn. They have gone out of their way to make my stay a pleasant one. Friendly staff! When I told them I was deaf in advance, they made sure that they had everything written down for me. This is a good place to stay. I would recommend this place in a heartbeat.

A great location in St. Marys with all that the village has to offer within easy walking distance. We parked our vehicle on Saturday and did not drive it again until we departed on Monday. The rooms were very large and very nicely appointed with all of the unique characteristics of a home built in the 1870s. Everything was completely functional but not so new as to lose the sense that you are staying in an old home. The staff was amazing and extremely dedicated to meeting any reasonable request. Meals were phenominal and getting to visit with Mardja was a wonderful experience. This is only our sixth B & B stay, but it was more than I expected for the rates we paid. Overall, a great experience in a truly wonderful location.

This B&B was not as nice as most we have experienced. When we arrived, the front porch was covered with boxes for Holiday decorating & the housekeeper showed us to our room. The room was very crowed & cluttered. The bed covers had stains. The bath towels were old & worn. There was no hair dryer available. In the morning, we had to "announce" our presence to the innkeeper as the dining room was totally dark. She seemed very unhappy with her situation as an innkeeper. We will not be going there again!

We were pleased to find the Goodbread still in business after staying here four times in the 1990's with different owners. Its still a great location (easy walk to restaurants and the ferry to Cumberland Island), comfortable, with great food and service, but in the Guinevere-Lancelot room our mattress was worn and tired (sleepy hollow) and there were way too may knick knacks cluttering surfaces. Unfortunately the first night the complimentary red wine in the decanter was past prime. I'm sure these items will be resolved by the time you visit!

Mardja was a total pleasure to deal with. She made all the arrangements for our outing on Cumberland from tickets to boxed lunch which was exceptional. The rooms were warm and well decorated and perfectly maintained. I would not even consider another B&B in the area. This is my second stay and there will be more.

Quaint setting, great location - Super Breakfast - Loved the "theme" rooms

The Inn is tastefully decorated with 'Old World Charm'. The Suites are themed for Hollywood 'on-screen' Couples: Bogie & Bacall, Rhett & Scarlett and have just the right touches of memorabelia. The ambiance of a fireplace in the room is romantic. The hostess prepares delicious breakfast: sausage casseroles, fruit parfaits, muffins. Afternoon refreshments also include home-made cakes & cookies, fruit and candy. The town has quaint shops & a park by the water complete with benches and swings. St. Mary's, The perfect place to getaway for: a romantic weekend !!

At only 2 blocks from the Cumberland Island ferry dock, the Goodbread House B&B is well situated. It is within the historic area, close to shops, restaurants,and other attractions such as the museum. Mardja is a very accommodating hostess, as is Allison, her housekeeper. Delicious, well-presented breakfasts and afternoon wine, coffee, and treats included items that allowed me to keep to my diabetic diet. A beautiful, gracious experience!

Only spent one night but will be back for the weekend. Beautiful decorating and very large rooms all done in romantic famous couples theme. Free wine, sodas, cookies. Friendly people and walking distance to downtown.

It was a great little vacation, friendly people, wonderful food. Thank you to everyone who made our stay a great experience at the Goodbread House. Sonia, Liz & Kirsten
