The home on Tybee Island GA exceeded our expectations on every dimension. Easy walk to the beach, beautifully decorated, excellently equipped kitchen and luxurious linens. The pool and spa were excellently maintained by the pool staff and the owner could not have been more responsive to a question. My wife and I as well as our guests enjoyed having our coffee on the screened porch as the sun rose, a cocktail in the spa in the evening as well as the dart board and corn hole games. Tybee Island is and intends to be a reminder of how family beach vacations were enjoyed generations ago. I certainly hope Tybee Island wins the battle to keep its historic nature!

Great for a group trip!

We stayed here for a bachelorette party and it is a perfect house in a great location. Very quiet because it is about a 15 minute walk to restaurants, which we enjoyed. It is only a 5 minute walk to the beach, with all the beach gear you need provided. Marlyn is a great host and quickly fixed a small pool issue when we checked in. Highly recommend this house to any group looking for a great beach stay!

Well done house and pool!

Our family stayed for a week and had a great time. The house was well decorated and had all that we needed. After hours on the beach we all enjoyed taking a dip in the pool. The pool was awesome. I won’t rent another beach house with out a pool from now on. The proximity to the beach was nice and they had great beach equipment and a wagon to make the walk so easy. Had a great time. The hostess was great too

Nice spring vacation

Nicely updated home with plenty of space for a family of 4. Our children enjoyed the pool and hot tub. Only one can be heated at a time, which took a little to figure out, but Marlyn was very responsive and adjusted as we needed. A beach umbrella was not present when we arrived but again Marlyn was very responsive and had one delivered within hours. The home was relatively clean but needed some general upkeep/coat of paint. The location was nice, an easy walk to the beach!

Tybee girl's trip

The house is amazing and only about a 3 minute walk to the beach. I love that it has a pool with heated spa. It rained on us most of the weekend, but the house was so nice and cozy, so we actually enjoyed staying in. Marlyn was a very accommodating host and when we arrived, the key pad battery was low. I contacted her about it and she had someone deliver batteries to the front door within 1 hour. Great house, great host, and great weekend! grweekend!

Great Bachelorette Spot

We rented this house for a bachelorette trip and it was perfect! The rooms were spacious for adults and located steps away from beach access. I would recommend renting a golf cart to get around the island. About 30-40 minutes from Savannah depending on traffic, so it was the perfect day trip. There are a lot of ants and ant hills around the property, and they did get inside every night by the kitchen sink. Be aware as we had a girl who was allergic. Otherwise, this house and trip were a blast!

Wonderful stay

Our vacation was wonderful! The house was great! Lots of space and plenty of towels. We were grateful for the beach equipment too--very handy if you're flying and can't bring your own. The outdoor shower didn't work which was the only issue. The pool was fantastic and the hot tub which starts automatically every day is the only prompt we needed to take advantage! The beach is about a three minute walk even with littles in tow. The property manager texted back every time we reached out--super fast too. We would definitely book again.

We enjoyed our stay (6adults and one toddler)! The bedrooms were upstairs with family space and Kitchen on the main level and outdoor games and beach gear on the ground/pool level. The kitchen had everything you needed plus a few extras! Property was within walking distance of the beach and downtown. Pool and hot tub were and other screened in porches created a lot of amazing outdoor space.The three bathrooms were spacious and airy.There are lots of stairs on this property and it was set up (and baby gates were included) so you could restrict toddlers. This property has been updated and is cute. Some areas could use a deep clean.I would stay here again if traveling to Tybee with a larger group!

Overall enjoyed our stay

We had some trouble the first day, when we arrived the pool was dirty and looked like it hadn’t been cleaned in weeks. Marlyn was great with communication and kept us up to date on when the pool guy would be there to clean it. The house was clean for the most part, but the tables still had crumbs on them and there was hair in the sink/shower drains. The pots and pans are bent and not well taken care of, so they work properly on the stove. There was also food found on some of the clean dishes. The outside games, a lounge chair, the wagon were all broken. Everything was very frustrating at first, but the house is very nice and we enjoyed our stay.
