Awesome Home!!!

Suwanee GA

Overall Comment

This home is very comfortable and met all of our needs while on Tybee Island. It is a very short walk to the beach and the pool is awesome. It is just the right size to relax with the kids. The kitchen is easy to work in and stocked pretty well for us to cook meals. Awesome Home!

Fantastic stay!

Evanston IL

We loved our stay in this adorable, clean cottage. Plenty of room for 5 of us, comfy and a five minute walk to the beach. Pool was small but nice and very refreshing in the August GA heat. We would definitely stay here again. Only “complaint” would be to include more beach towels.

Quiet cottage

Gloucester VA

The home was just as shown and described and worked just fine for our family. Super easy walk to the beach. The pool was not very clean (lots of debris). And there was water damage in the master bathroom on the wall behind the toilet.

Cottage with Everything!

This spacious home is close to the ocean, the park, and has everything you need for a very comfortable stay. The pool was so lovely in August and the deck was comfortable and spacious. The layout of the home was comfortable with a very spacious living room and kitchen. Beds were also very comfortable. My husband very much enjoyed the tv options and our kids watched a couple movies on the Disney channel. We love Tybee and have visited for over 2 decades. We have used Tybee Cottages every year and can't say enough good things about Jim and his excellent customer service.

Perfect Family Vacation

Millersburg OH

This was our first trip to Tybee Island with our whole family, including our dog. Almost Heaven was the perfect fit for our family and our furry family member. We were within walking distance of the beach, the park, shops, and more. Since 2020 has been a strange year we were thankful for the private pool and grill- as they got a lot of use. We definitely needed a break and it was the perfect place to relax and unwind. We will return and we hope to stay at Almost Heaven again! We loved working with Jim and Tybee Cottages. Excellent customer service and care!

Love "Almost Heaven"!

Decatur GA

Our family stayed here last year and knew this would become our "regular" place. Layout of the house is perfect and we love the pool. The central location and proximity to the beach are big pluses. We rented bikes both this summer and last and really enjoyed touring Tybee in the evenings.

Almost Heaven

We have vacationed every year on Tybee Island. This is our favorite place. It is a very short walk to the best part of Tybee Island beach. The house was very clean with plenty of room in both the kitchen and living area. The property management was very responsive to any questions we had and made our stay “top notch.”

It Felt Like Home

Jefferson GA

We love Tybee Island and have had our family vacations there for 14 years. Our kids have never known a summer without a trip. This was our first experience with Tybee Cottages and I was very happy with Jim and Almost Heaven! We have stayed in condos, big houses, and cottages on North, South, and Mid Island throughout our years. My husband and I both agreed that this was the first place we've ever stayed in that just felt like home. It was cozy and had every kitchen item I needed to make dinners for my family and even a birthday cake! The teenagers each had their own space and I got to see all 4 of my kids-ages 10-22-play together in the pool at the same time! That did this momma's heart good! The location to the beach was ideal. The crosswalk across Butler assured us that we could always get back and forth quickly. We ride bikes everywhere we go on the island and even walked quite a bit, too! Mid lsland is the perfect location to grab a Tybee Time daiquiri from the pier or a pizza from our favorite pizza place, Huc-a-Poos. You can get everywhere easily. We would definitely like to use Tybee Cottages again! Thank you to the owners of Almost Heaven for creating such a relaxing family home!
