This property was amazing! Everything as listed. Marlyn was a great go to person and very responsive with all my questions. I would highly recommend staying here!

We had some trouble the first day, when we arrived the pool was dirty and looked like it hadn’t been cleaned in weeks. Marlyn was great with communication and kept us up to date on when the pool guy would be there to clean it. The house was clean for the most part, but the tables still had crumbs on them and there was hair in the sink/shower drains. The pots and pans are bent and not well taken care of, so they work properly on the stove. There was also food found on some of the clean dishes. The outside games, a lounge chair, the wagon were all broken. Everything was very frustrating at first, but the house is very nice and we enjoyed our stay.

Our family stayed for a week and had a great time. The house was well decorated and had all that we needed. After hours on the beach we all enjoyed taking a dip in the pool. The pool was awesome. I won’t rent another beach house with out a pool from now on. The proximity to the beach was nice and they had great beach equipment and a wagon to make the walk so easy. Had a great time. The hostess was great too

We stayed here for a bachelorette party and it is a perfect house in a great location. Very quiet because it is about a 15 minute walk to restaurants, which we enjoyed. It is only a 5 minute walk to the beach, with all the beach gear you need provided. Marlyn is a great host and quickly fixed a small pool issue when we checked in. Highly recommend this house to any group looking for a great beach stay!

This was a great house to stay for our trip. We were only 30 mins for downtown savannah and able to relax in a beautiful beach town. It was the best of both worlds!! The home was beautiful and the hot tub was great. We loves the color changing lights!

Everything about the home was super nice! Great space and the pool was perfect! We did add the pool heat as it was a bit chilly and windy during our stay and the process was super easy! Marlyn was very easy to communicate with as well! Unfortunately the swivel chairs were broken when we arrived and some stains on the furniture from past guests, but when we let Marlyn know, she let us know it was on her list to replace them! Otherwise everything was great and we had a great trip! Close to the beach and good walking distance from restaurants on Tybee! We also were able to get Uber’s into Savannah when we needed to!

Had a wonderful experience with this property. The house was clean and well maintained with gorgeous upgrades. The location was great with most places just a short walk even for a 5 year old. The owner was extremely responsive and provided great service. The pool was clean and well maintained. With the addition of heat, we were able to use it into the evening even in February. I truly Cannot recommend this location highly enough. You won’t be disappointed.

This was the perfect place to stay for a girls getaway! The house was extremely clean with all the appliances and tableware needed. We did notice some markings on the wall on check in and we let the owners know. They were very quick to reply to our concern. We had a tough time getting Ubers from Tybee to Savannah but once we did it was about a 15-20 minute ride. The house is within walking distance to the beach but there is also beach parking if you want to drive. We utilized the pool/spa hot tub which was perfect for a relaxing day by the pool. Bathrooms were well stocked with toilet paper and towels/washcloths for both the beach and pool. Overall it was a great place and we would definitely book again!

Hakuna Matata
We had an amazing experience at this property. Everything was clean, fresh, organized and beachy! The layout was perfect for me and my kids. We loved having the private pool to use. When we go back to Tybee, we will definitely stay here again. It was a top notch beach house.

Slice of Heaven!
This property was EXACTLY like the photos! Absolutely gorgeous. The owner was so easy to communicate and the beach was a 3 minute walk. We had the best time in this beautiful home. You can tell that families have stayed previously as there are some marks and stains on the furniture but overall it was amazing!

What a beautiful home!! Updated, modern, and plenty of room to host 2 families with kids. This was the nicest house we had ever stayed in, but more importantly, the cleanest as well. I can't say enough about the owner. She was in constant communication with us and handled every challenge that was thrown her way. This house offers the perfect sized pool, which is shaded in the afternoon sun, and a short 5 minute walk to the public beach access just up the road. She even provides a wagon to help haul all the beach goodies she provides.
What a great, relaxing week we had. We would definitely recommend staying here. We LOVE Tybee and will continue our tradition of summer visits here to the island.

Very clean property. Owner easy to talk to and good communication. 5-10 walk to beach.

This is not a DIY flip listing. The owners have created a fantastic place to lodge up to 12 people who are looking for a good time in a subdued neighborhood two blocks from an awesome beach. Everything promised in the listing is delivered. Tybee Island is super chill and great for small children.
As for fit and finish, this house is a Lexus. No shortcuts to upfitting, furniture or amenities. High-end appliances (K-cup coffee maker in the fridge!?!). And our grandchildren were overjoyed with the pool, the toys, the games, their bedrooms.
My only warning is, if you have difficulty with step climbing, it is a bit challenging to negotiate the interior stairs from eating / entertainment space to bedrooms (up) or ground level. (down). Steep, tight turns are involved. Otherwise, a superb location and property on Tybee.

Amazing place for a family vacation!
The house has a bright and new fresh feeling as soon as you enter. It was my family of four with my parents (6 total). It never felt crowded and the location was awesome. Very close to the beach and restaurants. House had all the things you need to feel comfortable and ready to relax. We definitely did not want to leave! The heated pool and sauna was an amazing extra for my kids after a long day or walking or at the beach. I would definitely stay at this place again no question!

Great get away
This house is even nicer than the pictures. It is well appointed and comfortable. I was pleasantly surprised at how much was provided for the pool and beach. The beach was only 2 blocks away. The pool was wonderful! Small, but more than enough. We had a cool weekend, so the heated pool saved the day! We rented a golf cart and easily made it to the pier, surf shops and the Sugar Shack. Would definitely stay here again!

Island oasis
The home was perfectly equip with every comfort of home. Kitchen has everything you need to cook or bring in and eat on the Lovely large island. Beds were very comfortable and living space spacious enough for a family of 5 to spread out easily but still gather for family time fun. The private heated pool and spa was a lovely way to relax despite cold weather. Short distance to beach and local resteraunts. Thank you for sharing your home!
