Island Bliss | Charming Cottage, Pool + Garden!

Everything was great my sons and I loved it. Thank you

Great place away from the action but close enough to still enjoy it. Highly recommended

We booked this rental month in advance and they nicely took our money until we had crossed the cancelation deadline. A few days before our actual travel dates an agent called and said the property was uninhabitable. We were switched to a different property that was much larger, but run down and in a bad location right by the main road. The pool was not maintained, we had to deal with endless car noise and never ending issues with a half broken house. Beware!ca

We had a fantastic time at this charming cottage that truly felt like a getaway to the islands. Its perfect, tranquil location right on the bike path made exploring Tybee Island a breeze. We can't wait to visit again on our next trip to the Savannah area!

Great house, so much fun! The only slightly tricky part was getting into driveway/ parking spot and backing out without hitting neighbors trash cans etc. Such a bright and fun island house!

Pros: This is an adorable property. It is just a few blocks from north beach. There were enough paper towels and dish detergent for the week. Pool was small, but comfortable. Very nice outdoor shower. Cons: There was no salt or pepper (not a problem, but worth knowing). The entry has a solid archway which is a little low (spouse is 6'4 & occasionally hit his head). Also, the front door is secure, but the deck door to the pool needs the lock and/or the whole door replaced. It is a french door and the lock is identical to several at my house, so it was not user error. They have done a quick fix of a latch which does not work well, either. I did not feel my belongings were secure. For the price, this is not acceptable, as the fence around the property is not a security fence.

The property was great, it was as advertised. We were very comfortable. I'd stay again, except that it lacked all the basics for the beach and pool. No beach towels, no pool towels, and no beach chairs. I've stayed at many such properties, and you don't always get an umbrella, boogie boards, and bikes but you often do! Having no beach towels and beach chairs at a beach house? Come on!!! Having no pool towels for the pool?!?!?! As a result we could not use the pool or go to the beach until we had purchased some overpriced towels at the local tourist trap, and rented beach chairs. Really it's just so obvious it's hard to believe.

The description and pictures do this property well. We loved the flexibility of either going to the beach or staying in and swimming in the pool. It turned out to be a vacation saver when the man 'o war came in on day 3. (No fun at the beach with them around!) Perfect size for the two of us for the 4-5 days we were there and a great jumping off point to explore Savannah as well. Two not as positive comments: 1) Directions were off by 1 turn on the way in and we circled the property for ~ 40 minutes before calling and having someone talk us into it. Map programs do not have the location of the address correct. 2) The loft bedroom (sleeps two) was hot! It did cool down after dark / around 10 pm but the place needs to have a fan that can be placed in the loft to make that space usable in summer.

We enjoyed our stay! The kitchen had everything we needed. Everything was very clean and organized. We only had two issues. This might be related to the time of year we stayed. The pool was a little dirty from the surrounding plants even after skimming the pool multiple times. And there was a lot of construction going on around the block until late at night.

The location was great. The house had everything we needed to have a comfortable stay and the cats living around the house were a delightful addition.
