About this house rental

Due to its location on a point, large lot, 180-degree tidal creek views, away from the road on a private drive and peaceful setting, guests have said staying at "Serenity" is like "staying on your own island". Short 6-7 minute walk to Tybee's most remote beach. Easy walk to Tybee's famous Huc-a-Poos as well as several other restaurants and coffee shops. Perfect location for guests looking to be within a short walk to the Wedding Chapel. Naturalists and Birders love it. If you want to relax, experience a gorgeous view with great breezes, yet still be close to the beach, this is your perfect place.

A well-known Tybee home offered for the first time as a vacation rental in 2018. The home has been completely renovated and tastefully decorated with granite counter tops, stainless steel appliances, fans in every bedroom with a Jacuzzi tub in the master bath. For guests seeking a peaceful retreat during the cooler months, we also have a fireplace.

At the end of our private drive, there is a pedestrian light for easy access to shops, restaurants and the beach. To get to our home from Tybee Road on the private drive, you pass several houses and lots, so you don't have to worry about traffic. We also have one of the larger lots on Tybee, so a great and safe area for kids to play with plenty of parking.

Once guests arrive, they will enjoy sitting on our decks to enjoy fresh, cool breezes and the best creek and marsh views on Tybee. The stars at night light up the sky. The home sits on a point, so extremely private. When our friends see the view, they say "wow"!

In regard to the home itself, the great room off the kitchen has a 180-degree view of the creeks and marshes, high ceilings with three French doors that open up to breezes from the balcony and deck.

In addition to comfortable outside furniture, there is a restored teak table on the deck for outside dining and a Weber gas grill. To further enjoy the breezes, we added a hammock on the deck and a swinging porch swing. We also have indoor and outdoor games, books, beach chairs and a beach cart available for our guests. There is a ping pong table downstairs.

We have three bedrooms with queen beds and a queen sofa bed in the great room. We have an extra foam top for the sofa bed for added comfort. Several guests also asked for an extra bed in the reading nook off the master bedroom for children who want to be close to mom and dad. Therefore, we added a high-end Milliard Diplomat moveable foldable twin bed there as well.

Since Tybee is a small island, biking is popular. Tim's bike shop is a 3 minute walk away. There is also a kayak place a short 2 minute walk to rent kayaks or take a kayak tour. Due to Tybee rule and the home's secluded location, golf carts cannot be used, yet, Tybee is a small island.

If you interested in staying on the south end of the island, our other home is VRBO 460288 "Stargazer". It also has a 4.9 out of 5.0 rating from more than 140 reviews. It doesn't have the marsh views, yet it an historic Tybee cottage, four houses from the ocean.

We had a wonderful family vacation at Serenity, which is a well deserved name. The home is clean and comfortable with a great open kitchen that we enjoyed cooking dinner in every night. The large kitchen table inside and outside on the deck was perfect for us, a group of 7 adults. The large covered porch was our favorite because of the wonderful breeze and beautiful views! We had to contact the owner once and he was quick to respond and answer our question. We will definitely return to Serenity for another vacation.

Home was beautiful and well maintained. Home was well stocked with towels and kitchen supplies. Beds very comfortable! My family enjoyed relaxing and reading and playing games on the deck and the beautiful marsh. Perfect for our teenagers and dogs as well. Short walk to the beaches, coffee, and pizza! Host was extremely responsive to any needs and makes you feel welcomed. Definitely want to stay again soon.

My friends and I came to Tybee Island to celebrate a milestone birthday. We wanted the beach, sun and a nice view. We got all that we had hoped for and more by staying at Mike’s place “Serenity”. The space was clean, check-in was easy and they had some bags of popcorn for us to enjoy. The deck was a favorite in the mornings and evenings. It was so peaceful having coffee and listening to the birds. We enjoyed dinner in one night and made burgers on the grill. It was a short walk to the beach and we appreciated that there were beach chairs to use. Serenity was the perfect getaway to relax and celebrate with friends! I would highly recommend this place!

Property was in immaculate condition and extremely clean. The pantry is full of all kind of goodies…. Keurig pods in a couple of flavors, TP, paper towels, shampoo and body wash, detergent for the washer and dishwasher. Comfortable beds and nice cool air conditioning. We practically lived on the back deck overlooking the most spectacular view of the marsh while enjoying the music from the Pyle Bluetooth speakers and sipping on our favorite beverages. Right across the street you have shopping and 3 restaurants to choose from – and the walk to the beach takes about 7 mins. Oh, and did I mention the ping pong table in the basement ??? What fun ! We all agreed that next time we come to Tybee, we will be staying right here.

I met a couple of friends in Savannah for a quick weekend trip and we settled on this listing because we were looking for a quiet deck to catch up and enjoy the view. This house was just what the Dr ordered. Close to the beach, walking distance to food and night life and the perfect deck for private girl talk and wine! We barely left this spot all weekend! I packed little more than my camera equipment and I’m glad I did. So many stunning photos of various birds and a pair of swimming raccoons! The host was attentive and communicated with me every step of the way from booking to departure. I knew he was available while giving us distance to enjoy the home privately. The house was exactly as pictured/described and clean. We are already planning a return trip with the husbands! Thanks again for making this a trip to remember!

The house was exactly as described - it was clean, very comfortable and a great size. The kitchen had everything we needed, and more! The views over the marsh were beautiful and it was amazing to watch all of the birds so close to the house (wood stork, ibis, herons, egrets, osprey, warblers, bluebirds etc). It was very relaxing sitting out on the deck. Having part of the deck covered and uncovered worked out great - cover from the occasional rain, or sit out and enjoy the sun! The location was great - an easy, short walk to one of the beaches, 3 good restaurants (we tried all 3) and some really cute shops! Mike, the owner, answered any of our texts in a timely manner and was very helpful. We did spend a day in Savannah - it’s a beautiful city with lot of historical charm! If we are back in Tybee, we would definitely want to stay back at Mike’s house!

The location was ideal for a peaceful retreat and yet it was close to the beach, restaurants, and shops. The porch offered a beautiful sunset overlooking the marsh each evening. The house and bed were comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked. We lacked nothing and loved our time on Tybee island and in Savannah.

My wife and I loved staying for a week at Mike's home on Tybee Island in the middle of the winter. The house was huge and the extra bedrooms and bathroom came in handy when we had another couple stay over one night. The home is well-stocked with everything you need...way more than any other vacation home we've rented. The location up against the marsh and further away from the road made this an ideal, peaceful location for us. Mike is an excellent communicator and made sure we had every key piece of information before our trip, and thanked us for choosing his home before we left. We were very impressed with Mike's professionalism and kindness. Tybee and nearby Savannah were a perfect escape from Pittsburgh's winter, albeit for just a week. Though the highs ranged from the lower 40s to lower 60s during our stay, every day way bright and sunny. We walked on the sparsely occupied beaches daily, took a walking tour of Savannah (using the company Mike suggested), spent a morning in Bonaventure Cemetery and got to know Tybee and Savannah pretty well. We enjoyed one awesome meal after another and really loved the area. If you're thinking of taking a trip to Tybee/Savannah, stay here. You won't be disappointed. Brian and Christine.
