Once that happened, they emailed me the rental agreement and some various information for checking in. I emailed the agreement, but you can also fax or mail. Checking in was a breeze. We stopped by at the lady there had enveloped our key and was about to leave, but she gave it to us. She was very nice! Our condo was easy to find and in the PERFECT location... totally beachfront. For the price, it was a very good deal. I also liked it wasn't too far down the island. We were on the second floor, which wasn't bad at all. Our condo was pretty clean, but the floors turned our feet black so I think they may have had a little dirt leftover. The kitchen was stocked with utensils and dishes for some minor cooking. I would recommend this company, but I wasn't 100% impressed. See below for pros and cons! Pros: LOCATION, friendly staff, the beachfront view, lots of space Cons: Dirty floor, little flying bug infestation (wasn't really bothersome, just annoying), big trash can overflowing right next to steps, no tv in the bedrooms, tv in living room with few channels, and not enough towels (we have six for four people)

Our condo in The Vue had a beautiful balcony view of the pools and ocean. For the price, it was a very good deal. The Deck (onsite restaurant) was great; we dined there multiple times. I also liked the property wasn't too far down the island, a 1+ mile walk to either the lighthouse or pier in either direction. We were on the third floor, which was great. Our condo was pretty clean, the beds were comfortable. We did have to request linens for the pull-out sofa bed. The kitchen was stocked with utensils and dishes for some minor cooking. I would recommend this company!

The house was very clean and well maintained. The location was nice, quiet and peaceful and the pool is a perfect size for a larger group. We always rent a golf cart from Tybee Golf carts, right around the corner, and it's so easy to get to the beach/around the island. (Highly recommend) We needed to contact Tybee Cottages a couple times throughout our stay and they were very quick to respond and were so helpful. We look forward to staying at wild palms again.

Easy in and easy out - np problems at all. Tybee of course is awesome! We loved staying at 1923 By the Sea in April! It's one of the last remaining Butler to the Beach Tybee lots with a beautiful 1923 historic cottage that is as if time stood still. If you enjoy history and the craftmanship of homes built a 100 years ago you will love this cottage with its wide L shaped porch and working sinks in each bedroom. The location was perfectly situated between 12th and 13th streets for beach access for while the home is on the beach, direct access is limited due to the dunes and with chairs and such its much easier to simply use the public beach walkovers. The beach at these streets is awesome and very limited parking so crowds are non-existant. I cannot say enough about this rental company and their homes. We will be back!

That's a hard thing to find on a 4th of July beach trip. The room was on the 3rd floor and was clean an had full kitchen with a blender. can you say pina colada? The beach was clean and the most exciting part was dolphins were continuously out in the water playing the entire time. A nice bonus was that with our stay we received a free dolphin tour and a free kayak adventure. And the dolphin tour actually went right by where we were staying because that's the best place to see the dolphins. The pool was clean and the guys running the pool are very friendly and had a table full of pool toys to loan out. We will definitely return. The mattress on the bed is very hard but that is a personal preference that we like our mattress to be softer. Great vacation location close to good restaurant.

If I could give Tybee Vacation Rentals zero stars for the Atlantic Ocean 8 complex, I would…read more We paid $2,000 for a weekend stay and arrived at 1 AM after a long day of travel, only to walk into a place with FOUR cockroaches scattered around, one of which was still alive. That alone should have been enough to leave, but it got worse. The toilet had literal poop residue from the previous guest (and the photos I'm posting are AFTER multiple flushes, so no, it's not because someone was still there), there was hair in the bed, a toenail on the floor and the overall cleanliness was unacceptable. We ended up stripping the beds and using our own sheets (we travel a lot) because we didn't trust anything in the unit. There were bugs everywhere. I lifted a pillow on the couch and a spider came crawling out. It felt dirty and neglected, not at all what you expect when paying that kind of money for a vacation rental. When I called to report everything, I didn't hear back for HOURS. When they finally responded, they told me any compensation would have to be discussed after checkout. After checkout, of course, no one has responded. No accountability, no follow-up, nothing. The only thing they initially offered was to send a housekeeper... at 1 PM the next day. By then, we had already cleaned everything ourselves because we had no choice. To make things even more uncomfortable, the owner approached us on the balcony about a remote that had fallen off. It might have been minor, but combined with everything else, it felt invasive, like we were being watched the entire time. The ONLY redeeming quality is the ocean view. That's it. Between the bugs, the filth, the lack of response, and the uncomfortable interactions, this was one of the worst rental experiences I've had. I would absolutely not stay here again and would strongly caution anyone considering it.

The video and photos of the house was exactly as it appeared. My adult kids said - mom, you did good. This place is sweet. Hahaha. This was my first air bnb rental. The home had so many beautiful decorations ! Very well done ! Everything was clean ! The patio had nice furniture with comfortable cushions. We spent most mornings and evenings on the patio! Many details were considered. The kitchen had everything ! Including a milkshake machine. We made some twice. It was fun and great dessert ! The bikes in the garage were used multiple times to tour the island. The walk to the beach was convenient the beach was perfect. It was a short walk to the pier. The coffee table has a book on Tybee island. It was very informative! The pool was in perfect working order and well heated. It was used a few times during our stay while the outside temps were in the high 60's and low 70's Tips - we brought our own foil and parchment paper. They helped for lining baking pans and easy clean up. We brought extra garbage bags - which we did not use. We brought extra toilet paper and used one roll. We brought our own beach chairs but didn't need them as there were some in the garage. Bring extra shampoo and conditioner. There were small bottles of each in each bathroom, but not enough for everyone. The team at southern belle was very helpful. They checked in on us the first day to insure all was good. It was excellent !!! Looking forward to coming back ! This place was great and well worth the money.

One of our favorite features was the back porch overlooking the marsh. It was peaceful, offered great views, and surprisingly wasn't too buggy, making it a perfect place to relax in the evenings. We rented a golf cart and it was absolutely worth it. It made getting around the island easy and fun, and we were able to visit all of the beaches without any hassle. Overall, this was a wonderful place to stay, and we'd happily stay here on our next trip to Tybee Island!

There are many cottages to choose from and they are all beautifully decorated and immaculately clean.

They check in with you by text to make sure everything is going well and the few times we've had a question or needed help with something, they have responded right away. We stayed in the Cantaloupe cottage this past weekend and we enjoyed it some much that we hated to leave. If you are thinking about visiting Tybee Island, these are the folks you need to be renting from, trust me.
