Nice property

Very nice spot for two couples, or even a small family of 4. Property was clean and the location was perfect. There’s beach access right outside your front door. Would stay again.

Much needed get away

The best part was having a view from each of the three outdoor spaces. I believe my Undercover favorite feature was having a washer and dryer in the house and not to mention just a few steps to the beach, no car required.

Close to the beach

The best part of this place is the location. It’s a little on the small side but is cute. There was a little bit of a pest issue which was communicated to the host. Overall, it was a great stay!

Thank you for your feedback and leaving 5a 2nd Street a review! The location is so close to the beach! We are happy you enjoyed our cute home. Thank you for letting us know about the pests and being so understanding. We have routine pest control but being on an island can make it touch to be 100% pest free. We hope you come back soon!

Perfect location on Tybee Island

While this property could use some serious updating, it was comfortable for four adults. Its location was also perfect to the beach and local attractions. While the unit has guest parking, the beach entrance is also available to other beach goers where constant car and foot traffic occurs at all hours. While pet friendly, there is limited space for them outside.

Thank you, Michael for your review of 5a 2nd Street. We are happy that the beach traffic did not get in the way of you having a memorable time in Tybee Island. If you ever stay again at 5A 2nd Street there is a really nice size park a short walk from this home that would make for a great dog walk. They also have a fenced dog park on the north side of the island that is a short drive.

Tybee

Great place to stay right on the beach. It was clean, easy to get to, and we enjoyed it. The only issue we had was the dryer/washer but it was addressed quickly. We wish there was a slicker/shower outside to wash sand off before going inside but we would used water buckets to remove as much as possible. Would stay again

Overall was so so. Advertising as pet friendly should include somewhere for them to do there business, nowhere onsite or close, had to take dogs to park. Trees and bush’s by back deck are very overgrown. Back deck needs attention, nails sticking up everywhere, courtyard area needs a lot of attention, overgrown and uninviting. Floors were dirty from the time we got there, feet were black very quickly. Would help with some of the floor dirty issues if there was someplace to rinse of sand before going back inside. Nowhere to store any beach stuff without dragging it through the house to back deck area, or leaving out front and hoping it’s still there. Sliding patio doors need attention, very difficult to open and close. Overpriced for what you get, needs updating.

relaxing

Our stay was a spur of the moment decision. The condo inside was clean, organized and nice. The outside of the units all together is not very appealing. I understand the other units are ran by a different company. The location is prime and why we chose this unit. We did have to reach out to property management and they got back to us immediately. I would stay here again.

Check-in process and communication with the management company was very easy. Management responded promptly to my questions. The property was clean but could use some updates and repairs. The kitchen was well stocked with dishware and utensils we needed. The location was close to the beach however, the access on our street was closed due to erosion. We had to walk around the block to get to the beach, it would have been nice to know that before we booked. The back deck was ok but we didn’t use it due to the AC fan being so loud and right off the deck. The view of the dunes and ocean were nice form the front 2nd story balcony.

Thank you for your kind words regarding our team and their care regarding you and your reservation. We unfortunately are not made aware when the City of Tybee chooses to work on the ongoing erosion issues until said construction begins. We will definitely take a look at that AC fan to see if we can adjust the volume on that for future guests, thank you for letting us know. Please consider us for your next stay on Tybee Island!

First Time on Tybee

The location to the beach is perfect. House could use some updates, dryer doesn’t dry towels so if you want to do laundry dry in smaller loads, and the silverware was only service for 4. You will need to bring ALL things for cooking if you want to cook at home . Pots and pans are provided. We did use the grill out back a few times and it worked perfectly. Jacuzzi in the master takes up a lot of unused space and was not utilized by us. Outdoors of property definitely needs some care, especially in the back yard. Inside of property was clean. Parking for two vehicles was perfect. I did email the property manager a few times and heard back immediately and had any questions answered.

2nd Ave vs 2nd Street

Had a difficult time finding the rental as we turned onto 2nd ave vs 2nd street. When we called the office as we were lost, they were very helpful in explaining what we did wrong. Had a wonderful time and loved sitting out on the balcony overlooking the ocean.!! We would definitely come again!

For true beach lovers....

The proximity to the beach can’t be beat! We were lucky to have beach weather everyday of our stay and this place was ideal for that! With a one year old along (so many toys and accessories!) a longer walk to the beach and back home again would have been brutal. This was ideal. The place is clean and comfy and when we called because the grill wouldn’t start they sent a nice guy with a full propane tank that morning. Very nice!
