We stayed to celebrate our anniversary and it was a great little place to visit Tybee Island for a couple days. Great host and super clean place! Thanks!
My husband and I loved staying here! Ann is a wonderful host and has thought of everything! She was very helpful with suggestions on things to do and where to eat and they were all spot on. She answered us immediately when we had questions! Our favorite part was the close, private access to the beach. Ann, thank you for everything and we will certainly be returning soon!
Perfect little spot in Tybee that is walking distance to everything. Clean and quiet, and Ann was so helpful with recommendations in the area. Would stay again
Booked this for my parents and they loved the location. They were secluded enough to enjoy the peace and quiet on the beach but close enough to also enjoy the shops and restaurants without traveling anymore. Definitely recommend
We visited Tybee for a quick Anniversary weekend get-away. Ann was such a gracious and accommodating hostess! She had a welcome basket set out and the condo was so lovely and comfortable. We would 100% stay here again!
Ann was an outstanding host! Communication was great and the unit was so nice and convenient. Very clean, comfortable, and cozy. The beach and the town of Tybee were beautiful, my wife and I had a great time visiting and were very happy with Tybee Sunshine.
From the moment we walked in, we felt so relaxed and welcome! The bed was comfortable. It was just a short walk right to the ocean. We loved the outdoor shower and everything was very CLEAN! If you're looking for a small, perfectly curated place to get away, you found it!
This place was exactly as described in the picture. It's very quiet. A very nice walk to the beach. It was a very short stroll through the dunes. Ann has been the best host! A thoughtful gift basket was a very sweet gift. She was very knowledgeable of you have any questions about Tybee, food suggestions, or anything like that. We really loved this place and we will be back.
Ann was supper helpful with great communication. She even had a goodie basket and wine for us since it was our anniversary. House was just as described. My wife loved the bed and pillows. She usually has trouble sleeping on most beds, but got a great light sleep on this one. The beach was a short walk through the dunes. Would definitely recommend this for your stay and Tybee.
Ann delivered in all areas! My husband and I visited for a long weekend to celebrate my 50th birthday and she even had decorations, snacks and champagne for us! Everything was so nice and clean! We were just steps to the beach which was very private! We really loved the outdoor shower after a long day at the beach! This sweet oasis will not disappoint! I can’t wait to go back!
What an amazing location - literally 50 steps to a prime location on the beach. Ann is an angel and puts the super in superhost. We will be back! She thinks of all the little things and knows everything about the island, so any recommendation is just an ask away. We couldn't have asked for a better experience from start to finish!
The place was very lovely with everything we needed. Very quiet friendly neighborhood and kind friendly neighbors. Beach access was as advertised with about 20 steps to the dunes and little further to the beach. Very quiet serene beach. We are locals from SC and needed a quick easy get-away. And this was perfectly it. Ann was very responsive and generous. We will be back.
We booked last minute and were fortunate to land at this spot. Very thoughtful host and the space was so fresh and accommodating. For a studio rental it delivers. Full kitchen, stocked fridge, snacks, beach chairs and a grill. Short walk through the dunes to the beach. My wife uses a cane and made the trek with relative ease.
We spent our honeymoon at Tybee Sunshine. The town and community is quiet, respectful, easy to get around. We walked everywhere. We had our own private walk way to the beach. The room was perfect for two and so inviting. We had a wonderful and comfortable stay. We had no idea when booking we would be staying in the middle of a historic district. Do rich with history! We loved learning about it all. Ann the host was quick to answer any questions we had and had a beautiful basket filled with goodies for us to share to celebrate our marriage! We will defy go back and if your looking for a slow paced relaxing getaway then book here for your next trip!

About the host
Hosted by Ann Carroll
I love sharing this little slice of Tybee with my guests! I've lived in the unit upstairs, above Tybee Sunshine since 1989 and I got very lucky finding such a cool, quiet part of the beach back then. A few years ago I renovated the ground level to craft a one bedroom apartment, Tybee Sunshine. It's fun to have guests at Tybee Sunshine and whether I meet them or not, I love helping them find the places on the island that the locals know and love, as well as making sure they don't miss the unique-to-Tybee activities!
Why they chose this property
Back when I moved to Tybee in 1989 and bought Tybee Soulshine, Tybee was a sleepy little island with only 300 year round residents. I loved Tybee Soulshine because it was on the beach and off the beaten path. Fast forward to today and the rest of the island has gotten much more populated and touristy (although still a quirky throw back of the island. Given that, I am now even happier to be in this quiet neighborhood. The best part... is that the island is only 3 miles long and one mile wide, so you can still be a part of the fun (if you want) but sleep with peace & quiet!
What makes this property unique
Walk across the private beach access to dip your toes in the water while you watch the sunrise! Because the beach access is private, the beautiful beach at Tybee Sunshine is unpopulated and quiet! The decor is bright and happy and I've made sure that everything a guest might need is included!
