Tybee Pirate Weekend

We enjoyed our stay at the Pelican. The condo is exactly as pictured, there were no surprises. I imagine as the condo is updated the rates will go up. The host was quick to respond to my questions. When we were not Pirating, I spent most of my time on the balcony enjoying the view! If you kayak this is the perfect place to do so.

Didn’t disclose

We did not stay. When we first arrived, the apartment was not clean. There were food crumbs on the floor, etc. There were several trash items under the bed and dead roaches on the floor There was a musty smell, rundown furniture, and no toilet paper when we arrived. Worst of all, there was no disclosure that it was Orange Crush weekend. It was like a Police State. There was no way that we could get on and off the island to visit Savannah. We thought that Jimmy should refund part of our money since we did not stay there. He refused.

Just Chillin

The location is great for both trips into Savannah and other area islands. Tybee beaches are a short drive away but be prepared to pay for parking everywhere on Tybee. We had lots of downtime and really enjoyed the covered deck and watching the birds on Chimney Creek.

No Dock disclosed or Clean porch furniture

Half the reason for staying on the water is to use the outdoors. However, the “dock” was destroyed and not mentioned, the grill was filthy, the porch has a nice view but all the furniture needs replacing as these were beyond disgusting. Dead bugs inside bathroom floor clearly took everything for us to finish our stay. Place could be a nice property but needs lots of attention.

Relaxing Stay

Clean, relaxing place to stay. I fished from the dock and also watched the shore birds hunting for crabs as the tide went out. I would stay here again.

Good island getaway

I apologize to the owner for taking so long to post a review. He was definitely a great host. Loved watching the tide go in and out of the creek. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars was because of the pet hair. He posts that they accepts pets, so it could be more of a "me" problem, but I did have to clean the hair off the seating areas. We would stay there again. Thanks!

Old South on the Backwater

This was a perfect place for us to get away for a quiet change of pace. Tybee Island is for the most part still old Georgia, and the cottage is no different. It was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. For us, it was great, and we would stay there again.

Comfy stay

We enjoyed the spaciousness of the upstairs apartment and great back deck over looking the inlet, lots of sitting area, couches, dining room, 2 bathrooms, and large screen TV. We could have used more cooking accessories like coffee filters, better pans, and condiments, and maybe more TP, but the ocean breezes and access to the inlet were great! Bring a kayak!

Cute condo

Condo was in a great location to travel to the beach or to Savannah for a girls weekend trip. Lots of local restaurants nearby on Tybee and about a 25 minute drive to downtown Savannah. It was clean and roomier than it looks online. Had to call the owner for a question about the shower (user error in trying to operate) and he was responsive and helpful. Fyi, you pull the handle out to turn water on. Would stay again.

Cute and spacious getaway between Tybee and Savannah

The apartment is very spacious and nicely decorated. We liked the style of of furniture. The bed is OK but the mattres is a bit old. The terrace and deck are beautiful; equipped with deck-chairs, a table, and a barbecue. Overall, the apartment is very clean. The floor seems not to be swiped in a while - all our feet or socks where dirty after a short period of time. The kitchen has everything we needed (the fridge is loud and a bit annoying).

About the host

Hosted by Jimmy Edwards

Welcome to Tybee Island! I am a proud native Savannah-ian! Savannah and Tybee Island have grown and changed a lot over the years, all for the better! When I was a kid, they called this Savannah Beach! When my mom was younger, they held dances on the pavilion, which has since burned and has now been replaced by the Tybee Pier and Pavilion. Savannah was established in 1733, so there is much history to be found in our beautiful downtown too! I am continuing the family tradition with my wife and two sons (8 and 17 months) by ensuring they enjoy the benefits of coastal living too. The photo of me and my son were taken on the Back River at Tybee.

Why they chose this property

We purchased this property as a second home and investment property in 2004. We began renting the Tybee Island Pelican Drive house last year (2013) with great success and have expanded that to both downstairs units this year. This house is used by our family, and we enjoy it quite a bit. I hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

What makes this property unique

The Pelican house is true Tybee living at its best. The house is backed by Chimney Creek, a tidal creek. The creek has six feet of water at high tide and goes completely dry at low tide, exhibiting the extreme tide changes that we experience at Tybee. You can fish and crab out of your back door or just enjoy the sun on the secluded floating dock. Out of the front door, you have the beautiful marsh and coastal winds 24 hours a day.
