Very close to the beach and restaurants! Very clean and plenty of space for family gathering. Would definitely stay again!

Our running group had a great stay at this place for the Tybee Runfest. It was so close to the start line, great view, and clean
Only minor problem- couldn’t get some doors to close on the inside and outside of place

6 bedrooms, 6 employees. When you are retreating for work purposes, you don't really always want to share a room with colleagues. This was the perfect space at a fair price.

This trip allowed 4 sisters, living in different states, to come together and visit for the weekend. I can’t say enough positive things about this rental! It was in a great location, so very comfortable, and beautifully decorated! Thank you so much for a positive experience!

Great location - so relaxing being able to sip your coffee on the balcony watching the sun come up, and hearing the surf - we had six women staying in both units, it was great having the two connected. Lots of space and close to resturants and steps to the beach; can run back for lunch or a drink. This was on office trip and just what we all needed!!

AS ALWAYS IT WAS A GREAT WEEK AT TYBEE. OCEANVIEW PENTHOUSE IS A WONDERFUL RENTAL PROPERTY AND GAVE OUR FAMILY OF 9 PLENTY OF ROOM TO SPREAD OUT AND ENJOY BEING TOGETHER BUT WITH PLENTY OF ROOM FOR PRIVACY ALSO. WE ENJOYED BEING THERE FOR THE SECOND YEAR IN A ROW AND WILL DEFINITELY RENT AGAIN IN THE FUTURE.
4.6
The condo worked great for my group. Finding the entrance was a little challenging at first even with the extra detailed instructions. The street is more like an alley which can throw you off. The inside was wonderful and so close to the beach.
4.6
Overall, the stay was good. However, we had our elders who are 70’s and 81. They have low iron and were cold. The thermostat was regulated to not heat above 71 which was far too cool for them. They were miserable until we resorted to turning the ovens on and leaving on to heat the common areas. Similarly, the hot water didn’t support having a full family needing to shower back to back.
4.6
After trying to find it which can be confusing and frustrating everything was great. The location is walking distance to everything, the view of the ocean breathtaking and the stay was extremely over the top worth it. My friends and family and I are already planning to come back next year.
4.6
We enjoyed our stay. We had a small family trip for a wedding and everything went according to plan! Definitely will rent again.
4.6
Overall, we had a great stay. There were a few issues with one shower not working at all, and neither bathtub plugged so that the kids could take a bath. Aside from that, the apartment was very spacious and our group was very comfortable. We had 10 people in our group, so having 2 kitchens, living spaces, and dining areas was great! Having 4 available bathrooms was also very convenient! The property is across the street from the 18th Street pier and included beach chairs, toys, and a wagon to transport to and from the water. The balconies were wonderful for having coffee in the morning and sitting out in the evening. We really had a great time during our stay at Tybee Island.

Successful Family Vacation
There were 10 of us and ages ranged from 12 to 67. We all had a wonderful time!! The property was beautiful, the beach was perfect, and the property manager was so very easy to work with!

Great vacation trip the view not quite as promised
Overall we had a great vacation trip, and this condo was very nice, in spite of the lack of updates lol it is still of very good quality and spacious. Floorplan is a little awkward but not bad. Bedrooms and bathrooms small, but again all quite nice.
The view is a bit exaggerated, your view is to the right side, so yes you can sort of see the ocean from the distance. But not as great of a view as we hoped or certainly not what you see in the pictures online.
Property again is very nice but one of the bedroom ceiling fans does not work, air-conditioning is limited to 72°, but overall again a very nice trip, a very nice home, it is a very short walk to the beach, and love that it is within walking distance to shopping, restaurants, bars etc.
4.6
This was a perfect property for our group to stay while in Tybee. We had all the amenities required. The check in/check out process was super easy as well! There was a water main issue that was communicated well at the beginning of the stay and was promptly fixed.

We were so impressed with this rental. It was very clean, very spacious, and the perfect layout for a large group. It is located within walking distance of so many restaurants and shops. We will definitely be renting this VRBO again. If I could give it more than 5 stars I would.

I’m going to try and be as fair and straightforward as possible. We went to Tybee for a Christmas get together with our adult children(4) and grandchildren (4). There was enough space for everyone and the beds were comfortable except for the master bed in 301 which had a plastic mattress cover and made a horrible noise with every move you made. Everything was pretty clean except the floors. Our babies feet were filthy the entire time and the sand and grit was yucky. Also, I think it’s a little deceptive to call this condo “luxury” and there are no ocean views. We enjoyed being together as a family but will not be back to this condo.

Communication with property manager was fine but we had a difficult time looking for the house. I know we rode around the area for more than 15 minutes and we passed by it numerous times. I feel like since check in time is after 4 pm there should’ve been someone there to greet us especially if we were traveling for a long distance and seemed worried that we couldn’t find the place; when we called the prpty mgr to get clarification of the location he was very short tempered and before he hung up the phone on me, he stated “we will find it when we find it”….. grant it, it was after 11pm when I called him but his customer service could have been better. Other than that my family and I was satisfied.

Nice stay, very close to beach
The property was very clean and was a nice place. It was very close to the beach access and the beach wasn’t too crowded there either. It was also close enough to several restaurants etc to grab a bite while at the beach if you don’t want to pack a lunch. The property manager responded quickly to concerns and addressed quickly (there were a few problems with the elevator for the building). It would be nice if the house was equipped with a digital keypad for entry vs using a regular key system, but not a huge deal. Overall, it was a nice place to stay and I would stay here again for sure if visiting Tybee.
4.6
The whole family loved Tybee Island and the condo. The condo was nicely laid out, very clean with everything you might need on your vacation. It was just a short walk to the beach and many shops near the pier. My children all said it was one of the best vacations we had all had together. I just had one criticism. There was a rectangular dining table that had no protection around the four corners. We had a two year old that ran into one of the corners and cut her face. If you have little ones you would need to be careful.

Great experience in a great vacation home. Clean, great location and we couldn’t ask for a better place to spend our very large family adventure. Only thing we would like have had was a grill especially since so many of the restaurants closed early or couldn’t accommodate a party as large as ours.

Sweaty Sleeping, but great penthouse set up
This was the first time in many years that all of my extended family and ours were able to vacation together. I really don't have much negative to say other than the HVAC was a big issue for us. We rented a penthouse because the family is large and paid penthouse pricing. When I pay this amount for a rental property I expect to be able to control the temperature myself. I'm an able bodied working adult and am quite capable of deciding for myself what I want the thermostat to be set at. Though everything else about this condo was great, I will not rent here again because it's impossible to fall asleep at night when the temp has risen to 76 degrees inside and takes until 3am wish to start cooling back down. In addition, my initial communication with the lady at the management company was not good. She was short and rude. Once there, and asking to go on in when the cleaning lady had finished, I called to ask if we could go on in a few minutes early, and this time she was much better and polite. If you are looking for a lot of space, well maintained rental, close to the beach, this is your place......as long as you don't mind sweating while you sleep :-/

Family time is a great time!
This is where we stayed last year and it is perfect for our family and to the beach! The master bed in 302 needs a new mattress, my sister in law says it’s lumpy and uncomfortable...that’s the only complaint! My husband and I slept very well in 301 master bed. We truly love this place and look forward to next year!

The house was good and spacious. But customer service was pathetic and they cheated me. From the beginning they were rude. They had one glass dinning table and it started cracking inside for some reason. We have not done any damage. It may be because of heat or aging. They forced me to pay full price for the old dinning table and labor cost. Hopeless and beware of charges

Beautiful Condo, No Ocean View
Our family rented 2 condos and we loved the -- they were spacious, comfortable, and clean. The king sized bed we used had a VERY bad mattress -- my husband was miserable and we had to buy a mattress pad for him, which only helped a little. His side of the bed sagged so bad he could barely stay in the bed.
The other issue: photos show an ocean view from the condo, which we did not have. This is misleading, because the condo faces an alley, not the ocean. But it IS very close to the beach.
We weren't crazy about the island itself, but the water was warm and inviting and local people were nice. Restaurants were generally awful.
4.6
Beautiful space with a few correctable issues.
The combination of Unit 301 and Unit 302 was great and easy to navigate. The flooring was beautiful. There was very little view of the ocean, though. The pocket doors were a nightmare. No one-even the younger travelers-were able to get them to close completely. The white double doors in Unit 301 was impossible to close. There weren't even any door knobs on the room side of the door! How on earth could anyone close the door? The tub in Unit 302 would not hold water for anyone to take a bath. The walk-in showers were great.There was a huge lump in the middle of the Master Suite bedroom in Unit 301. The blinds in the bedrooms were of no use. As soon as the sun rose the rooms became too bright for sleep. A set of drapes to pull over windows or better blinds would be a good idea. The ease of access to the shops, restaurants and the pier was great.

Reviewer Comments:
We rented both #301 and #302 over the Fourth of July week and we enjoyed our stay.
The good things about this property:
*Location- We were literally steps from the beach. Restaurants, shops and the pier were in walking distance.
*Size - We were a large family of 15 and this provided more than enough space for all of us.
*Well appointed kitchen - there were plenty of dishes for all of us and enough pots and pans to allow us to cook several meals.
*The elevators were a blessing when it came to bringing up groceries and gear.
*Master bath had enormous showers.
*For the fourth of July fireworks, we were able to see everything from the condo without having to trek out to the beach.
The things we found challenging:
*The doors were a pain! None of them closed properly, especially the pocket doors. This was a huge inconvenience because we were a large party and some people were night owls while others were early-to-bed-early-to-rise types. With the doors not closing, noise was a huge factor for sleeping.
*The blinds were semi-transparent... why have them? In the morning the light would come streaming in and hits you straight in the eyes (unless you bring an eye mask, which alas I did not bring.)
*Air conditioning was uneven. It would be cold as the Arctic in the living room but hot in the master bedroom.
*Bed was too soft for me; you would sink into the body impressions of previous guests. There was also a bump in the middle. This might be just me though... my husband thought the bed was comfortable and had no complaints.
Overall, despite the challenges we still had a good time. Again, the location of this place was ideal for us and that balanced out some of the challenges.
