As seen on HGTV - TRULY AN OCEANFRONT PARADISE

Aside from the initial hiccup (which was resolved), everything about our stay was wonderful! The place is beautiful, clean, and relaxing! The walk to the beach was not far... the walk up the stairs is another story! Ha! Lots of stairs but the views make it worth the climb. We will definitely book here again when we return to Tybee.

Fabulous views and nice in populated beach on the quiet end of the island. Must be aware of the three flights of stairs! Not at all a problem for us but could be for some. Unable to get the WiFi at first and no response from the owner when attempting to contact her. Luckily we eventually figured it out- not as described in the directions btw. Also never got the tv in the main room working- not that it mattered with nature’s fabulous show from the porch! Overall a great experience.

Would have loved to seen the place right after HGTV updates. I am tough to get a 5 out of no matter where. We were just ahead of Hurricane Hermine and really debated whether to go or to wait a day. I contacted the Tybee Police Department to get their take on the situation and decided to go on down. Only experienced some moderate to high winds & rain the night we arrived and the next day as the Hurricane traveled north. We took advantage of the weather to catch up on some naps & rest. Once it was gone, we couldn't have asked for better weather Had a little tough time locating the property which is not the owners fault, she answered my call and showed great patience while staying on the phone with us until we found the property. Locating the lock box containing the gate card key for the gate was also difficult for us, but we found it. Unit is on the third floor which can only be accessed by climbing stairs. No elevator. It was not a problem for us since we relaxed on the beach all day and needed the exercise! Very manageable.

The building is built on pilings which provides covered parking. The parking space is best suited for a mid-size to small car. Other parking is out by the pool and is sufficient for larger vehicles.

Once inside, the place was as advertised. Nicely decorated just as one would expect of a beach property. Probably, too decorated for our liking but nonetheless, we did not want nor need for anything. The place was clean. Yes, the fridge and pantry had some things that should probably be removed but not my place and therefore would not dispose of myself. Beds and furniture, inside and out, were comfy. Flat screen TV's are in the bedrooms & living room. The television programing is ABC, CBS, NBC, ESPN but not the fullest spectrum of programming.

This place has one of the best views of the beach & ocean of many places we have rented in the past. The walking distance to the beach is not bad and it takes you too a large beach even when on high tide. A couple times per day we were visited by a dozen or more dolphins cruising the coast line. Another nice thing is the privacy. Even though you are in a larger complex, this property is virtually protected from other people looking inside the place, except from the beach and that is far enough that it maintains the privacy.

We would consider this property again in the future. Thank you, to the owners. We enjoyed the stay.

A nice relaxing week at Tybee , enjoyed sitting back on the porch watching the ships come and go and then walking the beach at sunset ! This is the best ocean view condo that we've stayed at. : )

Cons:

Our check-in was botched, because I never received an email with any information regarding parking pass, key code for door, etc, which led to confusion on my part and trying to check in at the wrong place, which leads to instant panic that you've been scammed. Once that was straightened out, we got into the condo fine. The directions/process for obtaining the gate card are weird and confusing. As the reviewer before me said, it's the second light pole. Also, our first full day there, we entered the pool area and were approached by a young girl (very friendly) who asked to see our pool passes. That was the first time we heard anything about pool passes. I showed her the gate key, and she allowed us to stay, but apparently there are specific pool passes required that were not provided. The refrigerator door (as the previous reviewer also said) was completely loaded full with other people's stuff like mayo, jelly, butter, sauces, etc., and it just seemed gross and as if we were in someone else's house. That stuff needs to GO, and the cleaning company needs to be asked to clean out the fridge if it's not cleaned out by guests. Also, I didn't notice any smoke detectors in the condo, but I may have overlooked something?? The wireless password was incorrect as provided, and only by reading someone else's review was I able to get the correct password (all lower case!!) I had to request check-out time and procedures. Some of this stuff would so easily be remedied by providing written information and having a few things typed out and left on the back of the door or on the fridge door or somewhere for all guests.

Pros:

Once we got past all of the minor glitches, the condo is beautiful and uniquely decorated. It's comfortable and pretty. The deck furniture is nice, and there is an awesome telescope on the deck. I could read the names of boats out at sea. The access to the beach from this unit is perfect. The beach is gorgeous and huge. There are tons of shells toward the North point. The pools are large and not over crowded. The beds are comfortable. There are tons of board games in the closets, and we made good use of those. The kitchen is well stocked, although you desperately need a scrubber sponge for the kitchen. Nothing to clean pots and pans with but a kitchen washcloth. The keyless entry is very nice for not having to keep up with keys. The condo is in close proximity to lots of fun places. Tybee Island is amazing, and this condo is very nice!
