Perfect little beach cottage

Adoreable decor, great pieces to make the small space functional yet comfy! Outdoor shower was convenient for the 99.5 step walk from the beach. Felt at home here

Cute little cottage

Perfect location; only 99 steps to the beach. Great beach path. Small 1 “bedroom” cottage with a detached bedroom. The inside bedroom isn’t private but was great with my daughter. She slept on the daybed so we could easily talk but have our own space. We didn’t use the detached room. Comfortable but small.

Sweetest Little Cottage

Great Little Gem

Super cute place to get away! Being just a short walk from the beach meant being able to watch the sunrise across the water. The main cottage is quite small, so don't pack a lot of stuff! However, the quaintness makes up it! The separate bedroom was a perfect oasis away from the kids, while being close enough to not be removed. We had a mishap with a lock, but management was super responsive and had the situation resolved in no time. The kitchen came super stocked with everything needed to prepare meals. The only negative thing about this place I can think of is a broom would have been nice to keep up with the inevitable beach vacation sand.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved this little cottage. It had everything we needed for just the two of us. Only one downfall was that the washer was broken. The staff did offer to bring more towels if we needed it though.

Great Tybee Cottage

Small, very clean and cozy. It is really only 99 steps to the beach. I will go out on a limb and say it is probably the best cottage on Tybee. We will definitely look for this one again when we visit Tybee.

Cute and Quirky Beach Cottage

Cozy cottage with fun and beachy vibe. Rental was small but had efficient use of space with separate guest room in backyard. Loved the well equipped kitchen and especially the short walk to the lovely beach. Small but private yard with nice high boy seating table for drinks or cards.

What an amazing location!

I took my mom here as a retirement present. The cottage is cute as a button and very cozy. Our first day was very relaxing with warm and sunny weather - being steps from the beach we were able to move back and forth with ease. Even with cooler, windy weather the next couple of days the cottage made a great Basecamp. I'd definitely come back.

Hot visit to Tybee

Washer & dryer didn't work. A/C couldn't keep up with the hot weather, nighttime was the worst trying to sleep and it wasn't cool enough for comfort. Tried to call after hr. maintenance number, didn't connect or take a message. That was frustrating, but overall, we had a good time. Cottage is very cute.

Small cottage so close to the beach was a wonderful find

If I had to find something negative to say, I couldn't. This cottage was perfect. Very cute knick knacks that weren't small child friendly but pick them up and you're good. Cottage is so close to The beach! Much better than a hotel room.

Fantastic Beach Option

The Old Love Cottage is exactly as marketed - small, charming, so close to the beach that it cannot be beat. We appreciated the location so much and had a fantastic time. It's definitely a very tight fit for five people given that there is only one real bedroom, and that room is in a different building! However we felt that the description was very thorough and we knew what we were getting into. The only reason I am not giving it five stars is because the cottage needs, and deserves, a little TLC. Given the price point, some upgrades in terms of the stove, washer dryer, outdoor shower, and kitchen items is needed. But, again, the location is the best you will find on Tybee. Walking distance to restaurants and shops, 150 steps to the best, least crowded, beach area on the island, and two parking spaces... Absolutely perfect.

New love for old love

The location was amazing, the beach was less crowded than other spots, the walk to the beach was easy and beautiful. The house is rustic but charming in its own beachy way. The bed in the guest house is a queen not a king. Nice place for a couple as someone else remarked. The AC worked well and in the Georgia heat it was needed. We had a few issues and there was no follow up from the rental agency but some of the issues self resolved so wasn’t a problem. The other issues we didn’t report but the washer does not rinse cycle and the tub drains slow. Not deal breakers for us. For the price and location it is worth the stay.
