About this property

Lovely retro island studio

Enjoy a memorable visit when you stay in this unique place. This unit is a retired retro hair salon, with Marilyn Monroe and Elvis showcased, & retro mid-century design, that has been newly renovated into a vacation studio with it's retro essence remaining. We're located exactly between Tybee Island Beach and downtown Savannah, 10 minutes each way. Making it ideal to visit both easily. Your kitchenette provides enough for you to enjoy whatever your liking. It has a retro fridge, a cooking combo oven, griddle & coffee pot, also retro, & retro mini blender. Condiments are provided. The faucet is set up with an under counter water filter system. No need for water bottles. There is plenty of storage under the bed & also baskets. A dresser & cabinet for unpacked items, a hanging rack with hangers is provided along with a stream iron. A stool for short people like me, a cabinet for bathroom items & a shower shaving stool - it's easiest to use placing it close to the curtain. Also a small first aid kit but if more is needed just ask. Plus a fire extinguisher, of course. Our neighborhood is very quiet & close to all popular locations, grocery, Bank, bars, restaurants, shopping, nail salons, CBD/THC store, post office, dentist, urgent care, liquor stores & all can realistically be walked to. Except for Walmart, it's a 3-5 minute drive. Anything needed, we're available, just text or call, our #'s given in check-in instructions. Sorry no pets.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Perfect Island Getaway

Everything here was just perfect, anything you could ever think of needing was already there ready for us. On top of that, the check in and out process was very simple. If you’re looking to visit Savannah, or Wilmington island itself, look no further than here

This little studio had everything we needed and enough space for 2 adults to fit comfortably. We truly enjoyed our stay. The bed was incredibly comfortable. Made it hard to get out of to start our day. Our hosts were great and made us feel welcomed. It was just a 17 minute drive to Tybee beach. The beach atmosphere was calm, quiet and beautiful. We saw lots of dolphins. It was amazing! We had a great time and would definitely book this studio again!

If you're a couple wishing to stay in a quiet place equidistant to the beach or downtown Savannah, this location is ideal. It's within walking distance of restaurants and stores in Wilmington Island's commercial district.The Retro Island Studio apartment is thoughtfully decorated for a unique experience. The room, toilet area and shower are all very small, but comfortable.

The perfect, cozy spot for my wife and I to celebrate our 1-year anniversary! This little spot has everything you need for a comfortable stay and is just a short drive to Tybee Beach and downtown Savannah. Definitely check out Friendship Coffee for amazing food and coffee! Host was very attentive and responded quickly to any correspondence. Check-in was a breeze, as was checking out.

This unit was all we needed for our short trip. The hosts were very polite and not invasive. The ceiling fan and light fixture made a huge difference in the July heat! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and would book again.

Cozy Clean & Convenient

This was great for me. Fine dining to pub food, watching the sunset over Turners Creek from a little pub beside shrimp boats to having coffee in a rocker outside the apartment while beautiful birds take turns at the bird feeder...this place provided me with some of my favorite experiences. I highly recommend this little jewel in a cool community!

Perfect

My husband and I wanted to take a mini vacation not far from home. This unique property was perfect. Clean, quiet area and the decor is absolutely adorable. Owners were sweet and quick to respond with any questions we had. The location of this property was a short drive to downtown Savannah and to Tybee Island. Will definitely rent from again.
