Welcome to Tybee Retreat; a RARE find on the island as it provides the opportunity to rent 1,2,3 or all 4 condos! Located just 1 block from the beach with direct beach access via a non-busy street where you can enjoy one of the most sought after beaches on Island! This home includes a working elevator so it is handicap accessible; No stairs are necessary for full access to the property.
Located on the South end of Tybee Island just steps away to the 19th Street beach access. This extremely desirable location has the perks of being where all of the action is (STEPS from the beach and a SHORT walk to the island's amenities such as shops, restaurants, and bars) but is tucked away on a private drive to provide privacy and serenity for your beach vacation.

Tybee Retreat's condo#1 offers an open concept living space that is tastefully decorated and fully equipped with all of the comforts of home. The comfortably furnished living space gives way to the covered patio that features a teak dining table and chairs, perfect for enjoying the ocean breeze. Come and enjoy!

Hard to find Handicapped accessible unit!!!

Condo was as described, very accessible with an elevator to our floor. Fully stocked with towels and kitchen items to cook with if staying in to eat breakfast or dinner. Parking under unit was deep enough for two cars and a 6 seater golf cart. Had one small request needed for the handicapped tenant and the request was handled promptly within an hour. Very close proximity to beach, shops, Tybee Pier, and restaurants. (Go across the road to Pier 16 to eat! You won’t be disappointed.).

Easter Trip

Great time!!!

Even though the weather did not cooperate, the weekend was GREAT! The condo was very clean and the perfect size for us! The location was great too, just far enough from all the congestion. Check in and out was easy. We usually make about three trips to Tybee every year and usually stay at the same beachfront facility everytime. We are already planning our next trip and staying at Tybee Retreat will be our first choice from now on!

Worked for us

The condo was as advertised. Things were clean and in working order except for the TVs. There was no cable service. Extra toilet paper and paper towel would have been nice, but it was stated in the writeup to bring extra. Overall, we enjoy the location, price and amount of room.

Tybee 2023

The property was great. Very spacious for a family of 5 w/an infant. The location to the beach was perfect - less than a block walk (3 min walk). The owner was great with communication. Was able to answer questions very quickly. You could walk anywhere for food, shopping and activities. The listing is exactly what you should expect. We will def be back.

This property was in a great location. The only issue was you hear everything that goes on in the unit above. There is no sound proofing. Also the front bedroom was 10 degrees warmer than the rest of the unit. This room would benefit from some blackout curtains since you see all the lights outside even when the blinds are closed.

Perfect

This condo was exactly as listed. The house was clean and tidy except the floors needed to be ran over with a mop. The pipes under the sink were not connected causing water to come up through the floor boards. I reached out to the host, who responded immediately. Everything else was great! I highly recommend.

Family Labor Day at Tybee Island

The property was in good condition.It was clean. It was a short walk to the beach.There were a few things that were disappointing. The 3rd bedroom had no TV. The kitchen cookware was somewhat limited. No sheetpans for baking. The guests in the unit above us were extremely noisy during our entire stay. There was bumping and thumping on the floor upstairs that we heard all during the day and night. We bumped on the ceiling with the broom handle to try to let them know the noise was disturbing us.. but it did not stop.

Nice but could be excellent

The location was ideal. We stayed on the lower level and our friends stayed upstairs. Perfect combination of closeness and privacy. We wished we had been a bit more organized earlier and rented out the entire building. The elevator was very useful for moving in with luggage, groceries, and guests with compromised mobility. There were a couple of issues with the furnishings. The living room television was not connected to the internet and was therefore not operable. The ottoman/coffee table was very worn and damaged. There was a portion of the frame missing, as if it had been removed after it split or was chewed by a dog (?). The kitchen had most everything we needed, and the cabinets had helpful labels telling us where things belonged. The showers had good water pressure and plenty of hot water. The laundry facilities were terrific, but only one detergent pod was provided. Likewise, only one dishwasher tablet was provided. The beds were adequate. The linens and pillows were pretty mediocre. By far the thing that would’ve made our stay better would be a renter’s guide. Important contact information was posted, but nothing about trash pickup, recycling, how to operate televisions, etc. I appreciated that there were no stringent rules about cleaning procedures for check out (properties that expect guests to extensively clean while charging an exorbitant fee for housekeeping are a pet peeve of mine), but some details about how to best enjoy our stay would be nice.
