Stayed Jun 15, 2024Cathy was an awesome host! We were so close to the beach just a 5 min or less walk. The beach was really beautiful and really big (enough for me to do my daily runs!) The Octupus Lair will always hold a special place in our hearts because we got engaged on the beach 6/19/24 during our stay. it was absolutely perfect. The bed was super comfy and the futon was perfect for daily naps. The TV had a roku. There was a cute little backyard with a brand new outdoor patio set! There's a hose to wash off your feet after the beach right in the front and the parking is safe for your vehicles off the road. The washer and dryer were a great perk so i didn't have to pack as many gym clothes. 10/10 are going back (if she would have us!) -Amanda and Billy

Stayed Jul 23, 2022We actually rented both floors of this property and enjoyed our stay in this very cute cottage. Owner definitely did a great job supplying us with extra towels, linens and cleaning supplies. The place was very clean. It needs updated electrical outlets and the existing recepticals are worn. Also could use ceiling fans and tv in bedrooms.

Stayed May 13, 2026We had a lovely stay. Proximity to the beach is great, exactly as advertised. We were missing some basic housekeeping items and it was addressed immediately by the host.

Stayed Oct 23, 2025Our host communicated wonderfully. She even gave us tips and information about Tybee Island. Cathy is the BEST! The Octopus Lair was charming, cute and comfy. The kitchen had everything we needed to make dinner a few nights. We had plenty of spare bath and beach towels, blankets and more! We loved this place. All the comforts of home. We will definitely return!

Stayed Jun 22, 2025This place was quaint and in a perfect location on the island. We thoroughly enjoyed our time!My only complaint would be that the futon needs upgraded for better comfort and the shower needed some TLC.

Stayed May 19, 2025We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Octopus’s Lair. It was clean, comfortable, and welcoming. We loved that we were able to walk everywhere we wanted to go - the beach, restaurants, stores, the big pier, Back River Beach, etc. We’d stay there again.

Stayed May 12, 2025Fantastic little place with everything you need for a beach property. Nice full kitchen and cozy bedroom and bathroom. Served perfectly as a home base as we explored this neat little island. Short walk to the beach and even shorter walk to the market that had everything that we needed to cook. Would definitely stay here again.

Stayed Dec 28, 2024Emphasis on both nice, and little. If you’re looking for space, this is not the place for you. But if you’re looking for a nice place, nicely laid out, great kitchen for its size, in a great location, you can’t go wrong with this place. Close enough to the restaurants, beach and fun, but not so close that there are crazy crowds/noise. Great communication, easy check in and out too. Would definitely stay again

Stayed Nov 1, 2024Upon arrival at our booking we found another renter in the apartment. We tried reaching the host by phone, text, email, and through the VRBO inbox service once we realized we could not access the space we rented, with no response.
