About this property
Comfy, Cozy Beach Apartment for Two with Adjustable King Bed!!!
DOWNSTAIRS / The tastefully-decorated newly-renovated, beach-chic apartment has a complete kitchen with stainless appliances. A small round dinette table with four chairs rounds out the kitchen area. It is combined with the attractive living area that features a fold down couch that can sleep one adult or two small children, making it a good fit for a small family. Two barrel chairs are made for relaxing, reading or watching the flat screen television, which has DVD capability.
The bedroom accommodates an adjustable mattress King bed. The large sliding mirrored-door closet provides plenty of space for clothing and personal items and holds a suitcase stand and ironing board.
The front screened porch has two comfortable metal chairs with a small table that are just right for a relaxing finish to your day in the sun.
Out back, just off the bedroom door, is a nice concrete patio with a turquoise metal table and two matching chairs.
Inside a Mitsubishi overhead heat pump unit provides plenty of heat during cold months and plenty of cold air conditioning in the summer. To help move air around on those particularly hot days, a floor fan is provided for your convenience.
This apartment is just right for a couple. However, it can accommodate one teenager or perhaps two small children or one other average-sized adult on the fold down sofa. With only 450' floor space it can be close quarters for anymore than two, but close friends and family sometimes don't mind sharing space.
The upstairs apartment may also be rented to allow for plenty of room for family and friends.
On the south facing wall is a beautiful ocean life mural designed and painted by world renowned artist Mary Jane Volkmann who was assisted by owner Cathy J. Sakas. On the front of the cottage under the eave just under the roof, the sassy Octopus watches over her Lair.
Our IN SEASON rates range from $90 on weeknights to $120 on weekends with a two-night minimum, plus hotel/motel taxes & fees (see rates). Discounted weekly and monthly rentals are also available.
Enjoy Tybee’s sand, waves and sun from your own comfortable, adorable, affordable, beach-chic yet tastefully-decorated cottage apartment that has all the amenities! You'll just love it!
IF THIS APARTMENT IS ALREADY RESERVED FOR THE DATES YOU WANT, PLEASE RESERVE THE UPSTAIRS APARTMENT LISTED AS PROPERTY # 474746.

About the host
Hosted by Cathy J. Sakas
Cathy Sakas is a well-known regional coastal naturalist specializing in tropical and sub-tropical marine and terrestrial habitats. In other words, she loves the nature of the southeast coast and thinks the barrier islands of Georgia are the most beautiful in the world! After landing in Savannah in 1970 to attend Georgia Southern University Armstrong Campus, Cathy eventually ended up on Tybee in the early 90's and rented the downstairs of the house that she would later name Cottage of the Octopus Lair. Cathy's landlady had told her that she would never sell the house, but after a year of seeing how much Cathy enjoyed and cared for the cottage, the landlady wanted her to have it. As soon as Cathy purchased the Lair she surprised her former landlady with a dozen red roses in appreciation. A few years before purchasing the Lair on a trip to Africa Cathy met world-class award-winning artist Mary Jane Volkmann and they stayed close friends from then on even though a half a world apart. In 2005 Mary Jane moved her family from Namibia back to the US to Gainesville, Florida and very soon thereafter came to visit Cathy on Tybee. Mary Jane took one look at the Lair's south facing wall and the wheels began to turn. Over the Fourth of July week of 2005 Cathy and Mary Jane spent seven days from sun up to sun down working from scaffolding to draw and paint the coquettish fish, sassy octopus, impish seahorse and magnificent pink jelly creating the landmark ocean life mural that adorns the south-facing wall. A local television station documented the progress each evening on their news broadcast. Cathy and Mary Jane's next mural is the north facing wall so stay tuned for that event!
Why they chose this property
When I first rented the Lair I immediately saw the potential it had. I just loved the coziness of it and the layout. As soon I bought it I made renovations and added my own personal touches using the beauty of nature. I enjoy the outdoors so much that the upstairs screened front porch literally became my office. I wrote the scripts for my two natural history series, Coastal Naturalist, for Georgia Public Television on that porch in the rocking chairs and have written several more papers and programs there too. For years Little Green Herons raised their chicks in a nest in the top of one of the palms and I watched their progress each day until they fledged. How wonderful to see them venture out on the long fronds and then finally take their first unsteady flights!
What makes this property unique
Living on Tybee has been such a great joy. I like to run and walk and since the beach is only a few minutes from my doorstep I take advantage of it. There is nothing like taking a walk in the morning to see the sun rise like a bright orange ball out of that great expanse of ocean. I appreciate all that nature has to offer and seeing the stars reflected in the ocean's surface and the moon rise out of the ocean are pretty spectacular events too. Of course the pelicans flying just above the waves is a phenomenal sight to see and watching ghost crabs scurry into their burrows in the dunes is always intriguing. I love eating at the restaurants on Tybee because most have open-air seating, so I can continue enjoying nature while I dine in comfort.
