About this house rental

The Tybee Island Strand Cottages Historic District is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and includes 18 cottages and walkways dating back to the early 1900s. Built-in 1925 and nestled among palm trees and majestic oaks, Twelve Palms Cottage is one of the original Strand cottages. Constructed on raised brick piers Twelve Palms Cottage features a hipped roof, hardwood floors, 10’ ceilings, a clawfoot tub, tongue-and-groove walls and ceilings, and a stunning large wrap-around screen porch with room and seating for reading, visiting, and dining - all while enjoying the Tybee breeze.

Purchased by new owners in March of 2022, the property has undergone major renovations under the supervision of acclaimed designer and preservationist Jane Coslick. Jane’s touch can be seen throughout the home from her soothing white color palette infused with pops of pink and citron to her selection of fun and eclectic handcrafted Stray Dog lighting. Enjoy the newly restored original tongue-and-groove walls and ceiling, fresh paint, six new custom-built beds, new mattresses, new TVs, new flooring in the kitchen and downstairs, new furniture, and a new HVAC system. Off-street parking for four regular-sized autos [2 x 2 stacked] and plenty of outdoor space for entertaining.

Located on the prized “Beachside of Butler” with partial ocean views Twelve Palms Cottage is the third house from the beach with an easy stroll over the boardwalk to the ocean, two blocks from downtown and one block from the grocery store. The living/dining room features plenty of seating including overstuffed matching sofas and club chairs, a dining table for 8, and a 55” smart TV. There are five bedrooms each with its own smart TV and ample linens. Three of the bedrooms are on the main floor along with the living/dining room, kitchen, and wrap-around porch. Bedroom 1 features a king bed with ocean views and a private bathroom. Bedrooms 2 and 3 feature queen beds, each with their own private access to the wrap-around porch and share a jack-in-jill bathroom. Bedrooms 4 and 5 are located along the downstairs open-air hallway which is accessed from screen porch stairs just outside the kitchen. Bedroom 4 has two queen beds, and the adjoining Bedroom 5 has three twin beds. Across the open-air hallway are two classic Tybee Island open-air showers, each with its own changing room and sink plus a shared lavatory. A washer and dryer are also found on the ground floor. This charming vintage beach house is the perfect home away from home for your friends and family.

Loved having the entire family together so close to the beach. Beds were very comfortable. One suggestion, one of the showers needs to have a handicap bar for those who have disabilities

Twelve palms cottage was such a beautiful cottage to stay in for our girls trip! It was clean with plenty of room for our 12 guests. The highlights were the beachside decor, pool, amazing wrap around porch with so much room to lounge, and the proximity to the beach. We were able to drive into Savannah multiple times as well to enjoy the city. If you're planning to stay for a prolonged time, be prepared to buy some essentials like tinfoil, TP, garbage bags as the home wasn't stocked with these things.

Let me start by saying this place far exceeded my expectations! The decor, screened in wrap around porch, pool, beds, bedding, and with beach just steps away, I was in beach vibe heaven for the 3 days we stayed. It is the perfect place and location on Tybee. I own a house built in 1920 and I believe this one was built in 1925, so it was absolutely charming and so much character. I would certainly stay here again if back to Tybee. This was a trip intended for my son and 4 friends for their senior year spring break. They had the downstairs area to themselves which was perfect for them as they are night owls and they had the best time playing cornhole which was provided. There were also several board games available. Although unseasonably chilly this particular weekend, it was just perfect to sit by the pool and get some sun. Everything is a short walk, couple blocks to all the food and shopping on south beach. I highly recommend Huckappos pizza on north beach and ask for the buffalo chicken pizza! On a side note, we did go to putt putt at Bogeys and got eaten alive by some type of insects because they have swampy water around the holes. Bring bug spray! My son is requiring oral steroids for the amount on bites he ensued. Couple things to note and recommendations…there wasn’t any soap or sponge in kitchen if you did want to wash anything by hand. Also could not find oven mitts. And they do not provide the little shampoo/conditioners nor did I see a blow dryer. Fantastic place!

We booked this house last minute after our other VRBO fell through, and it could not have worked out better! There was plenty of room for the 12 of us and having the pool was so nice. The beach access was right there, and it was just a quick walk to the downtown area. We had a great time in Tybee!

Beautiful accommodations for my family and extended family. My 3 kids loved having the downstairs area almost like a separate house. House sits super close to the beach and walking distance to the IGA and several restaurants and shops. House was tastefully appointed for a comfortable stay. Everything you need for a beach day or prepping a seafood feast was available.
