About this property

Only 2 blocks from the beach, this unique rental home is the perfect get-a-way. Enjoy peaceful, quiet nights, in this residential atmosphere. The ocean breeze will completely relax you on the large upstairs screened in porch under the massive oak trees.

We own and maintain this gorgeous vacation home and stay there often. It is well maintained and has just been recently updated with new appliances, new tile floors downstairs and completely painted inside. The house is fully furnished and the kitchen has everything you need.

The upstairs features two large bedrooms, one with a king size bed and the other with a pillow top queen size bed. Both bedrooms have HD TV as does the large family room upstairs that opens up into the kitchen with an entrance onto the screened in porch. Our kitchen offers everything you need if you prefer to cook, including a new gas grill on the porch. There is a full size bathroom with a tub/shower upstairs.

Downstairs has another family room with HD TV so adults and children can each have their privacy. There is a third large bedroom with a double bed and a twin bunk on top, as well as a full bathroom and laundry room. The couch downstairs is a convertable queen size bed as well.

Tybee Island was originally called, the 'Savannah Beach' and for good reason. It's only 15-20 minutes from downtown Savannah. You can enjoy the beach all summer long or tour the island on the Tybee Shuttle. Our home is less than five minutes to the nearest boat ramp, shopping, and plenty of restaurants with fresh local seafood. If you can't bring your boat, there are plenty of fishing charters available. There's no way you won't enjoy your stay. Our home is a 3 minute walk to the beach with the beautiful sand dunes.

You should make definite plans to venture into beautiful Historic Savannah. River Street is an absolute must with shopping and award winning cuisine. There you can watch some of the worlds largest container ships sail right by you on the Savannah River literally only hundreds of feet away. Experience Savannah through the Trolley Tours, Ghost Tours and visit the many National Historic Monuments.

Second stay, still love it!

This property is perfect for our family. Two blocks from the 7th street beach entrance but still very quiet and peaceful. We’ll be back again next year!

Grad week

This is a very nice quaint cottage, as we call them in New England, easy access to everything on Tybee. The Beach is very close and a very clean one. The area of Tybee we were on is very quiet and relaxing.

Excellent Stay!

My family of 6 were thrilled with our stay here. The owner was very responsive. The house had everything we needed and is in a great location. We loved the porch for hanging out, nice yard, outdoor shower and it was a short walk to the beach. Close to lots of food, shops and a quick drive to Savannah. We loved it and would stay here again.

Perfect Tybee House for Our Family

We enjoyed our stay in this clean and comfortable family home. The main living area with two large bedrooms is upstairs, so probably best for school age, if kids are coming. I loved the beautiful trees In front and back. I would definitely rent here again.

Wonderful place to stay!

My visit to Tybee Island turned out to be a great experience. This beautiful home is within walking distance from the beach, and a nice short ride to Savannah. The house is very comfortable and owners keep it clean. The porch is an excellent place to have breakfast or playing cards in the evening. I highly recommend this house; hope next time I'll stay for more days!

Close to the beach!

This home is well maintained and absolutely charming. Plenty of room for four and the corner lot was huge & beautiful. We spent most of our time on the screened in patio/deck. It's in a fantastic location. Just steps away from the beach and a quick golf cart ride to lots of restaurants. We'd for sure stay again!!!

Perfect location for a vacation!!

This home has an absolutely perfect location! It is just a short walk's distance from the beach. There are a few diners and cafés close by that are unique to Tybee Island. When you walk in the house, you instantly feel at home. The beds are super comfy and it has a full size kitchen if you feel like cooking during your stay. Perfect for families or couples looking to have an easy and relaxing vacation!
