Great Location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have been coming to Tybee and staying at this house for several years now. You can’t beat the location. The house is perfect size for 8 adults. However, they do need to replace mattresses in a few of the bedrooms,and living room furniture. They are quite worn out, and the living room furniture only seats about 5 adults.

Vitamin Sea for the WIN

The house is gorgeous and spacious. Great location, close to beach, restaurants and shops. Only suggestions would be to update the beds, provide more towels (washcloths and hand towels) in bathrooms and perhaps a bigger water heater. If more than one shower being used at once, water is lukewarm. We loved the outside decks with seating and the open concept on third floor.
