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.

We really enjoyed our mini vacation stay at #11 13th Street. It was everything a beach house…read moreshould be. It was a very warm and comfortable home. We loved the rustic and beach atmosphere that this home offered. While some enjoyed laying in the hammock, others playing cards at the tables inside and outside. We all enjoyed the beach and appreciated that is was a 200 feet walk to go play. Our group was mixed with some from WA, some from NV, and other native to GA., true to say we all greatly enjoyed our stay. As we arrived and we're settling in, a staff member from the office stopped in to drop off a pan, it was requested from two of seniors of our group, to have a bath mat for the shower. They were concerned about slipping. The staff went out and bought two new bath mats and dropped them off at the beach house. It was most appreciated and will be part of why we will return. Because we were so relaxed and enjoying our stay, we forgot our day to check out. The cleaning lady came by and we quickly jumped into action, with her, to help clean up. Kathy was the most, sincere, friendly person and made us feel good about forgetting about check out . We completely appreciated her understanding and friendly attitude. Tybee Vacation Rentals is very blessed to have her as one of their employees. She is a true GEM. In short, if you want super fancy, this may not be for you, but if you truly appreciate what a real beach is, if you truly appreciate what it is to relax, this is the perfect home for you to stay. It is with little regret, that I did not take pictures. But, my thoughts were focused spending quality time with family. But I will share a little beach time with you.

This review is about 3 17th st, South Beach ocean condos- unit 7…read more I am writing this review in full honesty, as the place was not exactly what I had expected. To start, the reviews said good things, only bad thing was that the beds were "not good." I thought, how bad could they REALLY be ? Now. When i tell you these beds were bad, that is solely an understatement. The pullout couch bed is probably equivalent to sleeping on concrete. There are weird bumps in it, and the mattress is about a half inch thick. However, the main bedroom, that bed was hard as bricks- but doable. I called twice, the tybee vacation rentals and they sent an EZ bed, sort of like a raised air mattress. Ok- turns out it was broken. Deflated throughout the night. Finally we called again, they sent another one no problem. I had to call for more sheets and a woman answered the phone laughing , and acted like I was inconveniencing her job. I said hello? is this tybee beach vacation rentals and she goes ya ? And demeaning told me the sheets would be over that they weren't done cleaning. Very rude and HORRIBLE customer service. No reason anyone should be answering the phone like that. So after the bed situation was figured out, we came to find dirty dishes in the cabinets. Ok- no problem, we just went out and bought plastic silverware and cups. We come back one night after dinner, and find that someone had parked in our spot. We waited outside for TWO HOURS! We had no where to park, called tybee vacation rentals, knocked on doors, and the police and tybee beach vacation rentals didn't seem to have a care in the world and told us we would "just have to wait until they come back." ARE YOU KIDDING! That's when we knew this place was a joke. They don't take anything serious. Lastly, I would just like to say that this place is absolutely not ADA accessible. There are three annoying flights of stairs to go up- no elevator and you have to lug everything up. There is a back door that swings open if it's not locked, and overall, the place was as nice as it was displayed to be. Place was older, furniture gross and run down. Not comfortable at all. Couldn't even sit outside because there is a wasp nest in one of the chairs. Overall, I would never book this place and , and for the price, absolutely not. The only good thing was how close we were to the beach. Nothing else. Don't book this place, spend a few hundred more and get a nicer place and a rental company that actually cares about how things are kept.

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 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.

There were two couples in our group, and the home had plenty of space for everyone to spread out comfortably. The house was full of character, especially the beautiful vintage floors, which were such a unique touch. We also appreciated the higher-end appliances and well-equipped kitchen. 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!
