Great location close to beach

Excellent overall. Close to the beach and shops. Quiet street. House is well represented in the photos. Only 2 minor quips: 1) wifi was in and out intermittently, and 2) the separation between the bathroom and sleeping area is not a real wall, so sound travels :). Not a big deal, but you better know and like the people you're traveling with!

Splendid Summer Surfside!

I'll start this off with, I am not a "beach person", but this trip was to introduce my twins to the beach for the first time to see how they liked it. We had a BLAST! A big part of that great time was due to the great accommodations at Surfside Beacon, especially its distance from the beach. Pat was great to communicate with, and the studio itself is super cozy. They even let me add my younger brother to the reservation pretty last minute with no hassle, so I'm really hoping we can go back next year to stay again.

Tybee

We enjoyed our rental with a few buts; the bed wasn’t comfortable, the bathroom sink doesn’t drain, there are more than 10 stairs and the toilet doesn’t flush properly. It’s a more dated property but was clean and the owners very pleasant.

We had a beautiful time in a wonderful spot. Loved it- the tiki shower and corn hole game added to it but nothing beats the closeness to the beach, palm trees and locusts to chase every worry from your mind!!

Short getaway

This was our 1st trip to Tybee Island. What a beautiful little town and beach. We had a studio apartment which was perfect for 2 people. It had all the amenities needed, sheets, towels, paper towels, day shower washing soap. Will be going back. It was perfect.

Fun place to stay

This place was in a great location and very clean. It has a fun beach vibe decor and perfect size. From the place there is a beach access within a block, and the neighborhood was fun to explore. It is also a very short drive to other beach access points and places to eat.
