XO Tybee is a classic "raised cottage." At one time, this style of home was found all over the island. Today, these unaltered cottages are few and far between - caught between the charm of the past and the needs of modern life. XO Tybee was purchased in 2020 from the family who built it in 1930 and over the course of an entire year, was fully and meticulously restored, updated and modernized without sacrificing it's soul and historic appeal.
Inside and out, you'll find many references to the lives lived and the stories and some belongings from the those lucky enough to have called this cottage a home over the past 90 years. When there was a choice to buy new or restore, every effort was taken to maintain that precious fabric of memories, which is why you'll find we saved the snap of a spring and the squeak of a screen door as it opens and closes but you'll also find, all the convenience of brand new central air conditioning, high-speed internet, modern baths and appliances and much, much, more.
Stays for up to 8 guests
Three of our four bedrooms are on the upper, main floor. All three enjoy beautiful light, and have a screened door leading directly onto the screened porch. Two of these bedrooms feature king beds, while the third is a “bunk room” with two twins. (not bunk beds.) The main bedroom has a decadent en-suite bath featuring a cast-iron claw-foot soaking tub. The second King bedroom shares a full-bath with the Living Room and Bunk Room.
On the ground floor, a detached,self-contained "garden suite" features a Queen Bedroom/flex space with a 3rd full bath with tub/shower combo. Covering the entire western wall of the suite is another of the murals by Dana Richardson. Just outside is a private, outdoor shower perfect for a luxurious rinse after a long day on the sand.
Steps to the Beach. There's simply no substitute for a good location. XO Tybee is half a block to the beach, just walk out the door and turn left to the Beach Crossover. It's an easy walk to the Tybee Pier but not so close to be bothered by traffic, noise, crowds or congestion.

Steps to the Beach. There's simply no substitute for a good location. XO Tybee is half a block to the beach, just walk out the door and turn left to the Beach Crossover. It's an easy walk to the Tybee Pier but not so close to be bothered by traffic, noise, crowds or congestion.
Rain or shine, we’ve got you covered. Downstairs in the enclosed, private garden level, you can chill with a glass of wine on one of the stools or hanging chairs in the beach-bar area or walk around the corner to a cushioned lounge area to view a movie on the 120-inch outdoor movie screen under the breeze created by multiple ceiling fans.
Upstairs, the wrap-around, screened porch offers a variety of spaces from a single rocker to a cozy conversation area, there's even a larger group seating area and an outdoor dining area for 8 or more.
A short walk to shopping and restaurants. The home is conveniently located half a block away from the island's only grocery store and within walking distance of most of Tybee’s shopping and dining options.
For the chef… The well-appointed kitchen features new, premium KitchenAid appliances. There’s also a gas grill on the back deck.
For the friends of the chef…There’s indoor space for dining at the expansive island and adjacent table. On the screened porch is a large, salvaged wood table where all can dine together in the cool breezes under the eaves.
Gather around the fire. Stargaze and create wonderful memories as you sit around the backyard fire pit. One fire wood kit is included with your stay. Additional bundles are available for purchase.•
Bring your bikes or rent a beach cruiser (contact us for a recommendation) to enjoy the many bike lanes and paths across the island and along the beach.
Get away from your getaway. Historic Savannah, Georgia, the charming Southern escape, is a short 25-minute drive away.
Off-street parking for 3 vehicles. Street parking should you need it, is available and can be paid for using the kiosk across the street or via the Park TYB app.
Wash. Dry. Wash. Dry. Few people get excited about doing laundry on vacation but, if the need arises (or you are that person) there are two sets of washers and dryers on the garden level. The set in the covered area is perfect for washing beach towels and anything that tends to collect sand. The state-of-the-art set in the garden level suite has a built-in detergent dispenser (there’s not much you can say to make a washer/dryer exciting).

The garden level suite features the largest of three murals in the home. This 12 footer was painted in place by local artist Dana Richardson. The QUEEN SUITE on the garden level features a self-contained apartment with a mini-kitchen, full bath with tub/shower combo. Enjoy it as retreat or use it as a detached 4th bedroom. The kitchen window flips up to create an indoor/outdoor bar—just one of the many places to relax in the spacious, covered lower level.
The en-suite bath in the main bedroom features Dana Richardson’s homage to a classic southern porch. Each of the three bedrooms on the main level has a door that leads directly onto the wrap-around screened porch. Whether you’re looking for a spot to dine, read, relax, or chat you’ll find plenty of room to spread out and catch the ocean breeze.
The mural in the shower in the shared bath captures the timeless splendor of a perfect day at the beach. XO Tybee is roughly 150 yards from the beach walk at the end of the 11th Street. Beach towels and chairs are included with your rental. There’s also an outdoor shower to rinse away the sand and sunscreen after your day at the beach.
