NEW PRIVATE HEATED POOL! STEPS TO THE BEACH! 360-DEGREE VIEWS!

THIRST N-HOWL ~ MULTIPLE LIVING SPACES! PERFECT LARGE FAMILY VACATION HOME! SLEEPS 15!

Thirst-N-Howl is a fun, lively Tybee vacation rental that will have you wanting for nothing during your stay. Perfectly situated in Tybee's popular Back River area where the Atlantic Ocean and Tybee River meet, the location offers the best of both worlds. Go a block in one direction and you are on one of the best beaches on the East Coast for frolicking in the waves. Go a block in the other direction to the secluded and protected Tybee River beach which offers a quieter and more tranquil environment. You are also a short walk to restaurants and good times like sunset margaritas at AJ's Dockside or taking a kayak or SUP board for a launch at "Alley 3".
This well-appointed home was built in 1980 and was the private residence of one of the biggest builders on the island.
- 1st floor has access to a spacious, private pool that sits under the shade of live oaks and palms with enough deck chairs for relaxing. Also on the 1st floor, 1 full bath, laundry facilities, and a large foyer area to prepare for the beach and a nice outdoor shower.
- 2nd floor includes living room, kitchen, dining room, 1 BR, and 1 full bath. A relaxing screened-in porch that runs the length of the home is a perfect place for an after dinner card game or to steal a quiet moment to read.
- 3rd floor features a second living room with a huge comfy couch and large TV perfect for family gatherings. Also included is 1 BR with a full bath en suite, a sleeping porch with plenty of beds for all kids, and the master bedroom suite with large bathroom which has dual sinks, a walk-in tiled shower and a spa tub. .
- 4th floor: A staircase takes you to a crow’s nest with fold out futon for additional sleeping near the stars. Make cocktails at the bar and take them out to the spacious roof top deck for 360-degree panoramic view of the south end of the island and the most amazing sunsets.
Regardless of your vacation plans, you will rest easy at 1806 Chatham and enjoy all of the comforts of home and then some, including plenty of parking for your whole crew piled into that larger truck or extended van—very important on a small island!
There are truly very few Tybee homes with all of the luxuries that this home provides and if your party happens to be too large for this home to facilitate, the home beautiful home right next door (*1804 Chatham Ave.) is also available for rent through Tybee Beach Vacation Rentals and HomeAway - VRBO.
Book your trip soon because this gem is new to the market and once it's discovered it will likely be hard to find an opening!

This was a wonderful home for our group of 9! We loved the location, the pool, and all the amenities in the home. We did bring 2 32” TVs due to the bedrooms not having TVs which I had checked on. We also brought our Keurig, and you may want to bring a nice frying pan if you plan to cook. But the house was great with very comfy beds and amazing ceiling fans. The temperature in the house was great! The front porch, pool and roof top porch were awesome!

Family Get Together

We loved it! The house is wonderful. We hosted dinners, swimming, drinks on the rooftop, and all slept very well in the accommodations. The kitchen could use some oven mitts but has all the ammenities you could possibly need to entertain. We enjoyed chilling on the couches on multiple levels. We enjoyed eating on the outdoor covered porch. All of it's great. It does only two bathrooms for the master bedroom and two bedrooms on second floor, but it doesn't matter as there is so much space for everyone. Thank you so much! Simple walk to everything! Would love to stay there again.

Great location and neighborhood

Many pro’s to the location including walking distance to beach and shopping. The swimming pool and rooftop deck were fun for all. Con’s: No room darkening rooms, literally had my 7 month old granddaughter in the master closet for darkness. If you’re not an early riser don’t plan on sleeping in. All beds were soft except one which I took 👍 I notified the leasing office about termites I found so hopefully they addressed that as I got quite a few bites from them. I would still recommend this house as all of us enjoyed the many levels of the home and opinions offered.

Great house and location!

The house was perfect for our group - two primary bedrooms for two couples, a guest room for a teen, and what we called the “hall of beds” for 3 younger kids. It was nice that that room had curtain separation for privacy, but I didn’t love that the primary bedroom connected to that had glass doors going to both the living space and the hall of beds. It limited which couple felt comfortable enough to stay in that room since the curtain was movable on the kid side. Other than that we LOVED the porch, the rooftop, and the pool space. The location was amazing and made for such an easy walk to the beach but also to nearby restaurants. We would definitely choose to stay here again!

Amazing Accomodations in a Beautiful Location!

We enjoyed our stay here immensely. We found ourselves mostly exploring the many levels and enjoying time spent around the property. A couple day and night trips out to the beach were easy. Would be great to have a beach wagon at the property to make it easier to haul. My only suggestion. Otherwise property is as advertised and perfectly accomodated our big group.

Fantastic roof top

Really enjoyed this stay. Great pool area, front porch, and roof top. 2 living areas that were comfy. I would not try to sleep 14 adults here as 5 of the beds are somewhat rickety bunks but the very comfy couch made up for those who weren’t comfortable on a triple bunk bed. Would stay again!

Amazing house

This property is one of the few with its own private pool. The deck on top provided some awesome night time views although not really a direct view of the bay or the ocean, but there are some areas where you can see both from up there. Fully stocked kitchen. Huge master and master bath. Bring laundry detergent so you can wash your towels. We really can’t say anything bad about it. It’s a beautiful place!

Beautiful house!

We stayed at Thirst’nHowl with our 5 adult kids and really enjoyed our week here. The house is nicely decorated, spacious, comfortable, very well stocked with kitchen supplies, books, games, and linens, towels, etc. There are lots of great rooms and spaces to hang out, a great pool, but our favorite was the roof deck for watching the sun set. The pictures on VRBO didn’t do it justice- the views are spectacular! Also very close to a gorgeous beach and easy drive to lovely Savannah. Thank you for a wonderful week!

Beautiful house, great location, super clean

We had a great time with our family at this house. It’s located within walking distance to restaurants and a stone’s throw to the beach. The house has plenty of space for the entire family plus guests. Our 3 families each had their own space but also a lot of community areas to hang out. Property is well taken care of and very clean. I was surprised at how comfortable the beds were and slept better there than at home. When we return to tybee, this will be our place.

First Family Vacation with Children, Spouses and Grandchildren

This was a great property for what we wanted. The pool and the location were the most important parts of this property being outstanding. The lower level was the entrance to the property with a touch pad to unlock. The back door to the pool had an alarm that we were able to set to tell us if any of the younger children went out the door. The washer and dryer were also downstairs a big plus. The Garage had a refrigerator Freezer that was very important. The house had umbrellas and toys for the beach which was only 2 short blocks away. A full bath down stairs. The main level has the kitchen, dining room, full bath and bedroom with a daybed and Queen Bed. There is a hide-a-bed in the LR that we didn't use. Great porch attached to the living room and kitchen with overhead fans and comfortable seating and table. Kitchen is well stocked for most needs. 2nd floor is another living room area that worked great since the Adults and children used the that TV for games. This level has the master suite with a king bed and attached full size bathroom. Very nice. There is another bedroom with an attached full bathroom. There is an area of 2 very nice bunk beds for the kids that are accessible from the master bedroom or the 2nd floor living room area. This also has a full size bed that has a curtain dividing the the bunk area from the bed. Sadly this is a draw back due to the privacy factor for a young couple that used that room or area. This was the reason for a 3 star rating of Accuracy of online listing. The 2nd floor living area has a great conversational area and was very welcoming. The 3rd level takes you to the 360 degree deck. There is a small room with a futon type couch, bar and small frig. We didn't use the room at all but loved the deck and the furniture that was on the deck. During the day a bit warm but at night the breeze made it very nice. The listing had a grill listed. With our group of 15 we could not easily go out, so a grill was another important factor. We tried to start the grill and it only had one burner working. I called the property manager and was able to get another grill sent over very quickly. It was brand new and worked well. The tank they gave me was empty but we were able to switch it out with the non working grill and then exchange the empty one for a new one. Property Mgr said they would reimburse me. The location makes a golf cart not necessary to rent. Great Property for a large group!

Awesome house

The property was very clean. It slept 13 comfortably with room to spare. The only rule I wish was different was the cleaning out of food products and supplies. It would have been nice to have a few more kitchen basics or at least leave our left overs that didnt spoil for others. This may have been an option but was scared to leave things behind and get fined. Overall, an excellent proximity to the beach ( around 3 minute walk) and great customer service. Our AC wasn't cooling appropriately and a quick phone call set it back correctly within minutes.

Beautiful family beach escape!

Our families needed a beach escape to a beautiful location, and that is what we got at the Thirst n Howl! The open layout of the house, including the unbelievable roof deck and the pool deck, made having 5 families under one roof actually quite tolerable and pleasant! We had a blast and have memories for years to come. The beds were comfy, the linens were fluffy, kitchen stocked with all your cooking needs, and the pre-arranged groceries from IGA worked like a charm. We walked into a house full of food as if it were home. The large kitchen table was awesome for the kids, and the roof deck was perfect for sunsets and stargazing. Proximity to beach and main strip were perfect. We’d absolutely stay here again!
