About this house rental

Just 100 yards from the beach, and right in the center of Tybee Island, The Blue Crab House is exactly where you want to be to enjoy all that this bustling beach town has to offer. The kitchen has been recently renovated, with ample parking for four cars, there is a fenced-in backyard, a hot tub, and a heated salt water pool (***please see notes on heating the pool), all private and at your disposal. Once you park, you can walk anywhere--so put away the car keys, everything you need for a great beach vacation is at your fingertips!

This is a Single Family House...don't let the two doors throw you! It is an old-time beach solution to coming home sandy; direct access to one of the bathroom showers from the outside. There is also an outdoor shower in the back. But make no mistake, this is a stand alone, single family house that will be completely private for you should you choose our place.

***If you are joining us during a cooler month, the pool heater brings the temperature up but it does not make the water hot. Please understand that water can be made about 20 degrees over the average ambient temperature, and that it can only get to about 85 degrees at its warmest. This is a lot better than 40 degrees, believe me, but the water is not hot. There is the hot tub for that!

On the Subject of Golf Carts: We have no problem with you renting one if you are able, but as the house is on the beach side of Butler/Highway 80, you can't always rent a golf cart from the local renters. This is because there are specific rules about where you can cross on Butler given traffic and season. However, as you as so close to everything, and especial close to the beach, we hope this won't be an issue.

The home was perfect locations, steps from the ocean. The pool was ideal with just enough shade to make it the ideal spot during the heat of the day. The house had everything we needed and was clean. Beds were comfortable - can't wait to come back!

We loved the location. An easy walk down to the ocean, over to the store, or into town. On the beach, a stroll to the pier was easy - be sure to bring a bucket to collect shells. We loved the pool and hot tub at the house!!! All the amenities needed were provided!

After staying on Tybee last week at a different rental, this was a breath of fresh air. The CLEAN heated pool & hot tub were just what we needed. Safe & maintained after a previous weekend with a dirty hot tub that we never got to use because the host was so unconcerned abt its maintenance & never finished putting the chemicals in. We never would have wasted 3 nights had we been wise to the state of things there. Now we'll know who we can count on if we wish to return. Thank you for preserving that getaway spirit! We were abt to go back home rejuvenated. Thank you for the care you put in. It matters & we see it. Much love!

Awesome property, awesome location. Jack is a superb host that was able to answer all of my questions in a timely manner. Had zero issues with the house. Very clean and neat. Backyard/pool area is great! Highly recommend staying at this property.

The pictures of the ‘Crab House’ weren’t exactly accurate. Although the house was very clean, and well kept (pool and hot tub included), the accommodations do not match with the occupancy we brought. We had 6 people…4 adults and 2 teens. The pictures of the second bath does not do it justice…and justice not in a good way. The second bathroom is extremely small. The shower was made for a hobbit/midget/elf. I’ve never used a shower in which I were unable to even move (bending down is next to impossible for a regular sized adult. This bathroom is really a half bath. Also, the house is rather dated. Jack the owner seems like a great guy. My only suggestion to him would be to do a renovation to the home. Definitely renovate that second bath (a real shower would go a long way for comfort), update the cabinetry, new carpet in the bedrooms, and new blankets/comforter…just a thought. As for the location, it’s on a corner lot right on the main strip…there were a couple of “drunks stumbling by” that was a tad worrisome, and comical at the same time. The walk to the beach isn’t too bad…5 mins tops. That was a plus. All in all, it wasn’t a bad stay. The amenities were nice…pool, hot tub, fire pit, backyard with seating for picnicking. October weather in Tybee was really pleasant, and the crowds were nonexistent. The surf was too rough though (bummer). Trips to Savannah for sightseeing was also a plus! That was less than 30 mins away. All in all, it was a good getaway. We had fun.

What a perfect location for our girls trip! House was a 5 minute walk to the beach and a 10-15 minute walk to the pier and shops. Really great gathering spaces at the house - both an inside dining table and outside table by the pool -where we all could sit comfortably. We loved having a backyard with pool! It was the perfect size for relaxing in! Unfortunately the hot tub was not working when we were there - but it did not ruin our trip by any means. I would highly recommend this house and cant wait to go back!

Our annual girl's trip of 7 friends (from across the US) spent three nights at the Crab House on Tybee Island (a location new to us in every way!), and we had a great time. The house is in an excellent central spot that feels walkable to any place you'd want to see (even the lighthouse if you're into a little workout). You can't beat the convenience of the grocery store across the street. We used both the hot tub and the pool, which were clean and ready to go when we arrived. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed to make dinner one night-- some starter spices, plenty of pots and pans and dishes, etc. The house may cater a bit more to a family, given the bunk beds and sleeper chair, and I suppose the bathrooms may be a bit tight for seven women to get ready in, but we did know that going in since it was in another review and was still "doable". "Captain Jack" is a super cool host and you'll have a great time.
