Perfect Tybee Island location

Julianne has been one of the best hosts I have encountered in my 20 years of VRBO vacations. She went out of her way to adjust check in and out times to accomodate our flight schedule! The house was perfect with everything we needed for our week in Tybee/Sananbah.

Loved this home!

Loved staying at house 203! Wonderful location that allowed us a very short walk to the beach and a short walk to the shops and restaurants. The kids enjoyed the outdoor shower which was great to rinse off at after the beach and then jumping in the pool! The beds were the MOST comfortable beds we have ever had away from home! Thanks for sharing this little slice of heaven with us!

Wonderful trip!

We had a fabulous trip in this home-we love Tybee and come every year and decided to try out a new home with a pool and it was so worth it with littles. Our kiddos can’t stand the humidity at the beach for too long so it was nice to have pool days and our oldest two could even stand in the pool. The beds were soft and our kids loved the bunk beds and having their own room! Perfect floors for kiddos as well. We had an amazing time and the host when accommodated a later check out time which was super nice. We listened to records and had the best time.

Backyard pool and a block away from beach.

Property is a short walk to the beach. We went in mid May and we had the beach to ourselves during the week. The pool was perfect for our 4 year old daughter who did not want to get out of it all week. Pleasantly surprised with the walk to the pier and the restaurants in that area. All around a great spot for a family vacation.

Great time at Tybee!

It was our first time vacationing in the South and we had such a wonderful time. The location was PERFECT! It was a short walk to the beach and the local grocery store. We did rent a car to travel into Savannah. The home was clean and we had everything that we needed. The pool was the icing on the cake! It was well-maintained and we were in it multiple times a day in between visits to the beach. I highly recommend staying at this location!

Recharge with the girls

Overall, the stay was great. Location absolutely perfect as it’s walking distance to whatever you may need on the island. Julianne communicated very well with us as we did have a few issues arise. Beds were very comfortable and we all really enjoyed the outside shower after full days at the beach. The pool was nice and warm. The entire patio area is very inviting with all of the plants in the seating. I would certainly return for weekend trip with close friends.

Tastefully Modern

The property was a very modern yet still cozy house. The description and photos were accurate and not misleading. I enjoyed the pool and just sitting on the patio watching all of the birds. It is a short bike ride to many hot spots in the area. Very short walk to the local grocery store and even to the beach. The host had great communication and check in and out was very easy. Would love to stay again. You have a really cool record collection there.

Tybee Island Beach getaway

This house was perfect! Our family of five loved it!!! The rooms/beds were great, especially the master bed, my husband said it was one of the best night sleeps ever. The bunk room was absolutely perfect for my three children. The pool, the pool was the star of the show! We expected to get to the beach everyday, but the waters were rough and we had four consecutive days of double red flags (not swimmable), and boy, the pool saved our vacation! The water was refreshing, actually cooler than our pool up north, but it felt perfect for the GA heat! And we had a lot of fun! The location was centrally located, since it’s a small island, it was good for us. The host was beyond amazing! We had one slight hiccup upon arrival, but she walked us through it and was beyond communicative! She goes above and beyond with providing items at the house for her guests! stars for this house and host!!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

About the host

Hosted by Julianne

Host profile image
Our family shares responsibility for the house. We love Tybee!

Why they chose this property

The house was a small, cinder block home that was transformed into a unique, modernist cottage with a pool.

What makes this property unique

We love to all get together, open up the garage doors on to the sun porch, turn up the music, and hang by the pool. With the walled in pool, you feel like you have your own secret hideaway.
