We liked the idea we could walk most anywhere. Food very reasonable,must visit the "Breakfast Club" for breakfast! :) One of our favorite places was The Tybee Tyme bar...very friendly,interesting people work there. and Spanky's for lunch/ supper. There's much to do..or do nothing! So many other places to patronize..we just didn't have the time. Our stay at the Hotel Tybee was just perfect..clean,comfortable friendly people. Can't say enough good about Tybee Island. and for something to do, twelve miles away is Awesome Savannah. or take the Dolphin watch tour.

Room tip: we liked being a little higher up.. could see more (only 4 floors)

What a great review!!! It covers a lot of what I share with our arriving guests in my welcome letter. All guests that book directly with the hotel will receive a welcome email and an attachment "Things To Do" letter. As I state in the letter, it is only one person's suggestions /advice (mine), so what appeals to me or my family may not exactly be a perfect fit for everyone. Guests that are booked with us through a third party can email me directly, I'm more than happy to send them a copy separately. Thank you so much for staying with us and taking time to share your experience on TripAdvisor.

Until next time...safe travels.

I had a bad taste after calling twice to make reservations but they were "too busy" to assist me and took my number to call me back but they never did. I ended up booking online.
It was off-season (end of Sept) and my sister and I spend the same for this dinky place as when we took a nice 4 day cruise. The shower space was tiny because the curtain rod was placed too far in and the toilet paper holder was ill placed and not convenient to reach. The electrical outlet in the center of the beds was in a lamp but must have been stripped because my charger kept falling out and wouldn't charge my phone.
On a good note the beds/pillows were comfortable and the staff I ran across in person were friendly but I'm still not convinced I'd stay here again - or at least not for the price!

Thank you for visiting Tybee Island, staying with us and sharing your experience on TripAdvisor. I genuinely appreciate all your feedback. We will be addressing both the curved shower rod placement and the toilet paper location when we upgrade our guest bathrooms starting in November. We are excited to be installing new tiled floors, tub surrounds and free standing vanities. I'm glad you got a good night's sleep, enjoyed our bedding and the service provided by my team. I really hope you will come back and experience all our progress.

Until next time...safe travels.

We are here for my husband's Vietnam troop reunion. We were here in 2012 for the same purpose. Was delighted to see the changes and updates that have taken place since our last visit. There are new beds and pillows that are absolutely wonderful! There is a nice size television in the room. The rooms are quite spacious also. The staff at the restaurant have been very good, but would like to give a shout out to our waitress we had for our Saturday night banquet. I don't remember her name, but I think she was originally from Ohio and we are from Michigan,two BIG rivals, and she took my husband and friends teasing with a great sense of humor. There are several small restaurants within walking distance of the hotel as well as souvenir shops. The only negative that I have and it is a small one, is that our second day here we were not given clean bath towels. The used ones were removed and not replaced, so we ended up having to use hand towels after our shower( didn't notice they weren't there until it was too late). The next day we had bath towels but not any hand towels. The rest of our stay towels were all there. We would not hesitate to come back, and hopefully we will be able to.

Room tip: If you want ocean view, ask for a room on the 3rd or 4th floor. Oceanside rooms on levels 1&2 are view of the dunes and parking lot.

We absolutely LOVED hosting your husband's reunion conference. It was a real honor to welcome everyone back to Tybee Island. Thank you for taking time to share your experience on TripAdvisor. My team and I were excited for everyone's arrival and to share all our progress. All the attendees raved about their stay and are looking forward to your next Tybee Island reunion. God bless you, your husband and all the brave soldiers he served with. There is not a day that goes by where we don't appreciate all they did for our country. All gave some and some gave all.

Looking forward to your next reunion. Until then...safe travels.

We arrived a bit early for check in, hopeful that our room was ready after a long day of driving, the lady at the desk gave us a parking pass and told us to come back at 4pm. I understood this because that is their published check in time, but when I came back at 4:05 there was a very long line and we had to wait in line for over a half an hour! Just wish that they could have called me when the room was ready to avoid that mess!
The hotel appears that it has had some new finishes recently. Our room was okay, however I was a bit disappointed to find that our balcony with the ocean view was also overlooking a public parking lot/beach access in between the hotel and beach. It was extremely busy on Sunday afternoon when we got there. This hotel is very close to the pier as well. We saw several people openly drinking alcohol and visibly drunk, in the parking lot and pier, not exactly a family friendly atmosphere for my children! I had never been to Tybee Island and doubt that I will go back. Overall, the downtown portion of the island seemed pretty run down and filthy.

Thank you for staying with us and for posting a review on TripAdvisor. I appreciate all your feedback regarding the check-in process. My team and I do our absolute best to accommodate early check-ins. If a guest's room is ready, we check our guests in immediately. If the room is not ready, we issue a complimentary parking pass and encourage guests to use the pool or beach. As you mentioned, there is a long thin parking lot between the hotel and beach. Surprisingly, it has been there for almost 100 years. For first time guests, we encourage them to go to our website click on the "Rooms" page, scroll down and click on one of the ocean view virtual tours. It allows you to experience the room virtually and walk out on the balcony. The large trucks that you see off the balcony to the right would not normally be there. We were hosting a large Hollywood movie production at the time and they were shooting on the beach that day. I really appreciate you mentioning your experience with intoxicated visitors and appearance of our downtown area. On a daily basis, our island hosts thousands of vacationers from all over the world. As you can imagine, our visitors come from all walks of life. Since we purchased the hotel two years ago, I've learned that different times of the year attracts completely different visitors. "When" you come to Tybee Island (including the specific days of the week) significantly influences your overall experience. I have no doubt that if you were staying mid-week this time of year, that you would have a COMPLETELY different opinion/experience. I dare say you would completely fall in love with every aspect of Tybee Island. It's similar to attending an Orlando amusement park during a peak season weekend (park is dirty, it is Tarzan hot, guests spend an hour or more in line to get on a single ride, etc.) and non-peak period (park is spotless, cool and literally no lines to get on a ride). The two experiences at the same park are polar opposites and leave visitors with two different experiences. I encourage any guests to reach out to me directly if they have questions or concerns about an upcoming visit. I'm always here to help.

Hope you'll come back and give Tybee Island another shot. Until then...safe travels.

Thank you so much for vacationing on Tybee Island, staying with us and sharing your experience on TripAdvisor. I'm so happy you loved your stay. We have worked tirelessly for two years to get to this point. The re-inventing of Hotel Tybee has become a genuine labor of love for my entire team. I'll certainly pass your praise along to each of them. Our guests reviews mean the world to and are very motivating. Our official check-in is at 4pm. On a daily basis we check our guests in early "if" their room is available. Otherwise we will issue a complimentary parking pass. Arriving guests can use the pool or beach until their room is ready. I'm glad you and your husband have found Hotel Tybee and our island as your "special getaway". We'll look forward to your next visit.

Until next time...safe travels.
