Weekend with Friends

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house had everything we needed and was just a very short walk to the beach. It was great that each bedroom had it's own bathroom.

Great stay at a Beautiful Historic Tybee Cottage

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: I had a wonderful stay at Tenth on Tybee. Its a newly renovated Tybee beach cottage in every sense of the word, with new bathrooms and new kitchen but retains much of the old charm of a historic cottage found on Tybee. The location could not be better as its just one house away from the beach walk over on 10th street, one of the best beach spots on Tybee. I liked it so much I booked it again before I left for another trip in the Spring. Cannot wait to return!

Another Great Stay at Tenth on Tybee

Rating Details: 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: My kids, ages 14 and 18, and I stayed at Tenth on Tybee for a week in April and had such a blast. I grew up in Savannah and live now (sadly) in LA and know the Tybee beach at Tenth is one of the best and this house is one house away from the beach crossover. While its location is truly the best, the house itself is a renovated time-capsule with great beds, kitchen and baths all modernized yet retaining the 1930's Tybee charm. Cannot rate this any higher than perfect. We will be back!

Family Getaway

Property was awesome. Wonderful renovation of a traditional Tybee beach house. Everything you need is on site. The large wraparound screened porch was perfect for late afternoon naps. One house off beach access. I did email the property manager, Tybee Cottages, the week before our trip and never got a reply. I ended up chatting online with VRBO and had my question answered. This is only complaint. Would book this house again in a heartbeat.

Classic Beach Charm

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: This is a large, beautifully appointed beach home, one house away from the beach. The kitchen has everything you'd need, and opens to a dining area, living room and the fabulous wraparound screened porch. There is plenty of comfy furniture for hanging out - comfy sofas, tables and chairs inside and out, and wicker outdoor seating, good lighting. The beach was clean, lovely and fairly empty - perfect for a jog, run, or walk. We were using only two bedrooms and there were two more, each with ensuite bathroom, screened windows, ceiling fans and pretty finishes. Drive to and from Savannah and airports is quick and easy. Most restaurants were closed on Tuesday. Loved Salt Island Fish & Beer (the best), Tybean Coffee, Bubba Gumbo, climbed Lighthouse. There's an IGA in walking distance, and many restaurants and bars are fairly close (the more bar crowd places). Def plannning to return!

Nice updated clean cottage steps away from beach

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Hard to beat this location, as it's on the east side of Butler Avenue, and the boardwalk to the beach is literally steps away. Also an easy short walk to the small grocery store on the island. The house itself has been recently renovated and it was perfect for our crew (4 adults, 2 kids). All 4 bedrooms have clean newly updated en suite full bathrooms, so everyone has their own space. The 4th bedroom is on the bottom floor off the carport/breezeway and next to the laundry room, but it's probably ideal for older kids/teenagers. It also came in handy for taking cover during tornado warnings since we were there for Hurricane Helene! I was pleasantly surprised how fully stocked the kitchen was. It has everything you need. Huge wraparound screen porch where we ate a low country boil dinner one night. My only complaints were the dirty/stained rugs in the living room/bedrooms and one of the wicker sofas on the porch was broken and needs replacing. Overall, would highly recommend and would definitely stay there again.

Great family house right near the beach

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: House was perfect in regards to space. My family, along with my sister's family stayed at the home for a family vacation. Location of the house was great, it is on the beach side so there is no crossing the street to get to the beach. There are 3 bedrooms upstairs and one bedroom right off the garage. My husband took the bedroom off the garage because we didn't want any of the kids down there so if you have more than 2 kids and 4 adults be aware of that as that room is secluded from the rest of the house. The beds were all super comfy and firm. Bathrooms were great as well as the water pressure. All kitchen appliances worked perfectly and there were plenty of plates and glasses to accommodate 2 families. The outdoor porch is fully screened in including the floor to keep bugs from slipping through the cracks between wooden floorboards which was amazing. The only issue we had was finding the lockbox and the fact that the there was a wasp nest near the front stairs. One of the kids as well as my sister's husband was stung going down through the porch.

Great beach house

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: Well-appointed house that is close to the beach. Have rented here before and both times it was a great experience. No beach towels are provided - not a big deal, but it is helpful to know ahead of time.

Amazing!

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 had such a lovely time in this home! Our first visit to Tybee was simply AMAZING and it was great due to the great experience we had here. The location was perfect. The house had SO much room to spread out in and the pictures of the covered porch just don’t do it justice. We will definitely be back and would live to stay here again.

Awesome beach cottage at Tybee

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: This was our family's first time on Tybee and we loved it! The house is amazing, with all the amenities we needed but still had that cozy beach cottage vibe. The owners have done a great job renovating this amazing home, from the ship lap walls to the super comfy beds. Our family had 3 generations with us and the house was perfect for all- everything is close enough to walk to, especially the beach access. We loved the huge screened porch and the covered area underneath was perfect for storing and cleaning our fishing and kayaking gear. We would love to come back when the weather is warmer to have more beach time (it was cold and windy in April when we were here) but we still enjoyed hanging out here and taking several day trips into Savannah.

Clean, cheerful and an ideal location.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than 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 really enjoyed our stay at 12th on Tybee. The house was just like the photos. Very clean and comfortable. The proximity to the beach is fantastic. I didn’t see any beach towels - perhaps they mentioned that in the write up but I didn’t know. So, bring beach towels. Also, there is permit parking which we didn’t realize and got a ticket!
