Beautiful, comfortable home with great amenities, bikes, beach chairs and equipment. Walking distance to the beach, shops and restaurants. Loved the outdoor shower and pool lounge area. Hosts very responsive with quick communications, and also very gracious with us accidentally breaking a candle holder. My first visit to beautiful Tybee, highly recommend!

Property is beautiful and very spacious. Has a ton of character and lots of nice touches. The heated pool is small but immaculate, and the kitchen is very well equipped. YMMV with the beds and pillows, but only in the way you'd expect from a short-term rental. Easy walk to the beach and a cute neighborhood.

Wonderful house in an extremely convenient location! Easy walk or bike ride to the ocean, the back river and restaurants. Lots of room in a very well appointed beach cottage! The owner was available for any questions and kept me informed of all the amenities. I am looking forward to booking this cottage again in the future! My friends and I had so much fun there!!

This was our second year coming on spring break and this house was perfect again! Everything we needed for our family of five (three kids under 10). We got some cold windy weather but that did not stop anyone from swimming in the heated pool or playing all the great games stocked in the house. Will be back next year!

This is a great vacation home! We had eight people and there was plenty of sleeping room for all of us. It is within walking distance to the beach, fishing, shopping, and restaurants. It is decorated so cute and has an ocean/beach vibe that is so cool that much of the time we just stayed on the property. Owners were always responsive and helpful as were the neighbors. Definitely recommend this property!
