About this property

Best Of Both Worlds ~~Tybee Island~Historic Savannah

An Absolute "Gem"...This home is truly remarkable! What it lacks in fancy upgrades, it makes up in charm! It is the perfect Savannah getaway. Ideally located in a family friendly neighborhood, you can access downtown 'Historic Savannah' or the beautiful beaches of Tybee in less than 15 minutes. It is the perfect place for peace and relaxation or it will serve you well after a long day of touring and shopping!
This property has a great floor plan with 2 bedrooms ~ walk in closets, 2 full baths, living room, family room, bright sunny kitchen with dining nook. There is a full size washer/ dryer. Kitchen is well equipped with cooking utensils, plates, silverware etc. we provide 4 beach chairs, an umbrella, and a cooler for beach use... Eliminates you having to pay beach rentals!!!!
When not at the beach, you will want to head into Savannah!
Savannah is such a popular destination spot due to its variety! You can visit "Historic Savannah" ... There are multiple tours offered. You can sign up or do your own mobile friendly self-guided tour at your own pace! Tybee Island is extremely popular with Captain Mike's Dolphin Tours, the Tybee Museum, and the amazing Tybee Lighthouse. Tybee presents 'Movies in the Park' monthly in the summer months. Labor Day at the beach is filled with sun and fun ending with fireworks from the pier!
This is our private retreat when we stay in Savannah! We would love to share it with you. There is such 'good energy' in this house. It is simple, cozy, and affordable! We look forward to having you as our guests!

Great Location

Cheryl was extremely nice and let us check in early. The check in/ out process was easy and straight forward. The house was very clean and had everything we needed and more. The location was great- a very quiet neighborhood and a short drive both to Savannah and Tybee Island. We would all definitely stay there again.

Cozy home in good location

This home was cozy and good location right between Savannah and Tybee. Pros: Location, clean, comfortable, cozy. Cons: lack of necessities. There wasn’t much toilet paper, no sugar/honey/ketchup/ or condiments. Other than could have been more necessities, it was a great stay! The place was very comfortable and cozy

Great stay, beautiful property!

Here for my Brothers wedding and New Years. The property was very spacious for my husband, myself, and my teen. 2b 2bath and a backyard we never used, but it was beautiful to look at. The property had everything we would definitely recommend and would stay again.

Retirement celebration

The house and neighborhood were exactly as described. We were celebrating our recent retirement with another couple, and wanted to see both Historic Savannah and the surrounding islands. Wilmington Island was less than a half hour away from everything we wanted to see. Would definitely stay here again.

We love the South! We chose this wonderful house due to its location. In minutes we can be at the beach, shopping, dining or on Historic River Street. This house is very peaceful and truly restores balance in our lives. It is very simple, yet it meets all of our needs. We love the feeling we get when we spend time there.
