As a beachside retreat, Tybee Island brings together old and new – clapboard cottages and Bermuda- precisely that soft blend of natural marshes and Atlantic shoreline, modest history and seaside playground that makes Tybee a celebrated family vacation destination. At the south end of the island, the pier and pavilion stretches into the Atlantic, tempting people watchers and fishermen intent on capturing the ‘fish story’ catch of the day. And the authentically refurbished lighthouse and five-acre grounds and outbuildings remind us of her role in guiding mariners to the Savannah River for nearly 300 years. It is precisely that soft blend of natural marshes and Atlantic shoreline, modest history and seaside playground that makes Tybee a celebrated family vacation destination.Locals can’t compete with crimson sunsets, wading herons or silky sand dunes; but they roll out dining hospitality, shopping convenience and fun modes of transportation. You’ll find casual waterside restaurants and loftier southern inn-style fare, with fried green tomatoes every bit as popular as delicious servings of fresh fish. You’ll want to join the line-up at The Breakfast Club for mouth-watering omelets and southern grits. Wander to shops and galleries, along the marshes and shoreline in a fun, open air Tybee Cruiser. They’re eco-friendly, electric transportation to liven your tour around the island– but be sure to make a reservation.
Just 18 miles and 20 minutes away, Savannah offers a virtual silver platter of Southern heritage, arts, entertainment and exceptional dining. Gather family and friends and plan a lovely day of exploring cobblestone streets, shaded historic squares and parlor-room hospitality! Be sure to include the City Market for a remarkable mix of artist lofts, musical entertainment, boutique shopping and more.

Only oceanfront hotel on Tybee Island. Direct beach access with oceanfront pool sundeck and game room. Free continental breakfast and WIFI. Voted best place to stay 7 years in a row. Beautifully re-modeled rooms and a heated and cooled pool depending on the weather.
The hotel and room was basic and nice. The breakfast was perfect for my husband and me. My only complaint is my husband had his cellphone stolen out of the room when we went to dinner with friends. We traced his cellphone at an employees house. We put a note on the door of their house to return the phone or call the police. The cellphone returned to the hotel 2 days later.

Rented a "Small King" room. When you walk in, the bed is 3-4 feet from the door. There was no closet. The only sitting room was the bed or at the small wood table that had 2 wood chairs. The air conditioner is on the wall too high to reach controls w/o standing on chair.

The DeSoto Beach Vacation Properties is comprised of a Bed & Breakfast with 3 units, and 3 Garden Suites, and 15 other units thru out the Tybee Island area, most with full kitchens and beach access.
Had a good stay in the Tybee Suite. Took my wife for Mothers Day. Liked the home feel with a nice breakfast and wine and cheese in the evenings. Lovely view of the beach on a nice deck. Room is a bit dated, but adequate. Front desk clerks were friendly and helpful.

Twenty minutes from Savannah, a several minute stroll from the beach and two blocks from the Tybee lighthouse. Tybee Island Inn captures the beach casual essence of Tybee with style. Sleep Your Seashore Fantasy in king and queen guest rooms inspired by the sea- Mermaid, Dolphin, Lighthouse, Sea Cabin, Captains Quarters, Savannah Beach and Sunset all with private baths, air conditioning and cable TV. Other amenities include private decks, gardens, gazebo and bike rental.
This was by far the worst experience we have ever had. No hot water for the shower, breakfast’s were so unhealthy. No eggs, just mound of dough with berries and syrup. When we complained about the lack of hot water the first night, owners said we should have called them, which we did. The second night, we got back late and took a shower, again problem not solved. All I can say is stay away not only from this property but the entire island! NO CHARM HERE!!

New just added wonderful Pool that is Heated/Cooled. You will step back in time upon entering this spacious historic Tybee raised cottage originally built in 1910. Transformed into The Georgianne Inn during 1921, this beach home has undergone many changes but has never lost the sense of nostalgia it evokes. Situated just 3 houses back from the sand and surf, this estate will give you a sense of how things used to be on Tybee Island. Even though The Georgianne Inn is nestled in a quiet residential neighborhood, it is close to downtown Tybee and the stunning Pier and Pavilion. No need to drive for great dining, it’s just a quick walk to a wide variety of restaurants, attractions and nightlife.
We loved it here. Everything was just perfect. The staff, the room, the grounds, pool, just everything. Located near shops, restaurants, beach was just around the corner. Highly recommend sitting on swing!

My family and I stayed in one of the condos offered by this hotel. The place was clean and nice, and close to the beach which was very convenient. The only downfall is the parking. It’s a very small space in which it seems to have way too many cars allowed for parking. On a slow day, you’re usually just dealing with a tight space. On a busy day, it’s almost impossible to pull in or out with the placement of the other cars. If you have anything more than a sedan, you’ll be running into some problems.

Welcome to our 1950s beach-style inn, within walking distance to shops, restaurants, attractions, the pier—and just over 200 steps to the water’s edge. We offer 20 unique rooms—from our famous Penthouse Suite to the Honeymoon Red Room Suite. All rooms include complimentary continental breakfast and free Wi-Fi.
Booked this hotel on line with booking.com based on travel guide which described the rooms as a “hoot”! We weren’t laughing when we got there Owners were down right rude on arrival . Room was dirty, cracked tiles in the bathroom, rotting sink unit, dirty toilet. We had a red heart shaped hut tub! We didn’t know this when booking. A hoot? No! Just dirty ! The brown plastic steps leading into it didn’t help! There was just one bulb in the room coming from a lamp. The three bulbs in the overhead fan light were all missing . When we complained to the owners and asked for a hairdryer we were told they weren’t there because people stole these from the room ! We were given a hairdryer and told maintenance would have to sort out the light bulb problem the next day. The lady did give me some light bulbs but I told her, just by looking at them they wouldn’t fit, and they didn’t . Maybe the light bulb problem was deliberate so you couldn’t see the dirty room! It was a rip off and not a cheap one at $262.00 Don’t go! These owners don’t care :have no pride and won’t do anything to improve this property as proved by the state of it!

The Royal Palm Motel is a small family owned and operated motel that is located one block from the ocean on Tybee Island. It is an old, but well maintained property. We like for our guests to be informed that the rooms are "nothing fancy", but are clean and comfortable. All of our rooms include a fridge, microwave, mini coffee pot, bathroom, TV with cable, and air conditioning. We have a 20'X40' swimming pool. We strive to maintain a family style atmosphere, so we do not allow parties, loud music, or overcrowding of rooms. Parking is free, but limited to one vehicle per room.We have a 48 hour cancellation policy. We have a 2 night minimum for reservations any time and a 3 night minimum during holiday periods.Sorry, but pets are not allowed in the rooms or on the beach on Tybee Island.
We stayed here for a night while in the area - love love love this little motel! The retro vibe was super cool. Room was clean and comfortable. The pool was on the roadside, but nice and as relaxing as it could be due to location. Well staffed and we felt safe - a great value for the price! Walking distance to the beach and many other nearby points of interest. Highly recommend! We will be back :)
