The cottage was perfect for a Tybee Island getaway. It was peaceful, relaxing, and had easy access to the beach. The quiet surroundings made it a great place to unwind, while still being convenient to everything Tybee has to offer. I would definitely recommend this cottage to anyone looking for a relaxing beach stay!

Gorgeous little cottage that was as very clean. The host was very responsive throughout the entire stay, and we loved being mid-island and a close bike ride to wherever we went. We will be back!

Thank you for the wonderful review. It's great to hear the cottage was clean, the mid-island location and bike access suited you, and our responsiveness helped. We look forward to welcoming you back.

The cottage was nice, the wifi unfortunately wasn't so good. That wouldn't have mattered much except that it rained a good bit of the time we were there. One very important factor in planning your vacation is, if you're not going to be inside, was that you have to pay for parking everywhere, except at the venue you're are staying at! Which can really eat into your vacation expenses you've planned for. Our cottage was right on the beach, but we had no beach access. We had to locate a area to pay to park for beach access.

This property was exactly what we were looking for! A nice, quiet place to stay that is close to the beach and amenities! Would definitely stay again!!
Perfect quaint cottage. 5 min walk to beach just around the corner via the board walk.Quiet neighborhood, felt safe, clean, crisp linens, absorbent towels, great water pressure. FYI, no dishwasher or beach towels. There were 2x beach chairs. A drip coffee maker, so bring some coffee filters. Highly recommend for a couple or group of 4 in that there is just one bathroom. Enjoy Tybee Island!

Thank you for the thoughtful review! We’re glad you enjoyed the cottage’s location, quiet feel, cleanliness, crisp linens, absorbent towels, and water pressure. Appreciate the helpful notes about no dishwasher or beach towels, the two beach chairs, and the drip coffee maker needing filters — we’ll update the listing and guest guide to make those details clearer. Thanks for recommending us for couples or small groups, and we hope to host you again on Tybee Island!

Great access to beach, and wonderful location on the island. Central to everything. Having pool access was a plus. Management was very responsive to needs. We will definitely be back!

Thank you for the 5-star review! Glad the beach access, central island location, and pool were a plus—and that our team was responsive. We’d love to host you again at Lucky Savannah. - The Lucky Team
We had a fantastic stay! This cottage was perfect for our family. It’s has a great beach cottage feel! So close to the beach. Can’t wait to plan our next trip:)
We come yearly but this is the first time staying away from south end of the beach. We enjoyed the house and location. We love staying on Tybee before school lets out.
This is the perfect location if you want to go to tybee with just your family. The cottage is perfectly located for access to the beach and the IGA (grocery store). It is well appointed with everything you need.
The cottage is small, but comfortable. It was perfect for our family with three kids. It’s close to restaurants and easy walking distance to the beach.
Wlll keep this on our list of perfect getaways that make a short vacation seem long. Convenient location to all the fun stuff happening on Tybee Island. Close to the beach. Cozy, comfy and clean.
Wow, we loved this place! The cottage was the perfect spot for our family of four! I loved the beachy backdrop, and it was well-stocked with the necessary kitchen and bath items! Such an amazing time, we hope to go back! We highly recommend this spot to anyone visiting Tybee Island looking for a comfortable, cozy stay!
We found the house to be charming with all the amenities we needed and even it just having 1 bathroom was not a problem for our family of 4. Our favorite part was the 3 minute walk to the beach! The beds were comfortable, the living room as well, and we appreciated the nicely stocked kitchen.
