Fall Getaway

Beautiful home with lots of room. Had some problems with the internet and the hot tub, but the property managers took care of these. Loved the porches. Not a great view of the ocean but still a great house.

Great place w/ tons of room, but make sure you have a beach cart with wheels...

Very nice place with a ton of room, great for entertaining, and in a perfect mid-island location. But be prepared: it's a little harder than you would expect to get to the beach, because the nearest boardwalks (including one that is pictured on the website) are either on adjacent private property (whose owner yelled at us when we tried to use it) and/or only go about a third of the way & dump you into the middle of dunes, so we ended up having to walk out to Butler & then back down either 10th or 11th to use the public access points on those streets. Not the end of the world, but definitely a little annoying given the somewhat misleading pic on the site & the statement in the property description that "beach access is only 20 yards away." Nonetheless, this is still a very nice spot, and as long as you know what you're getting into, we would still recommend it highly, especially for a larger family or group.

Siblings Weekend

Eight adults gathered from out of state for a long weekend. There was plenty of space for us, the property was clean, and check-in and check-out were both easy and convenient. We loved all the different areas we could sit and gather comfortably, plenty of seating. A few disappointments: The Wi-Fi didn’t work for the duration of our stay. The property management company was responsive and sent someone out, but it was never resolved. The hot tub finally reached its peak temperature on the morning of our departure, which we had set it to 48 hours prior. My assumption is it had been turned off for some time (we stayed in the off-season) and turned on in preparation for our arrival, but it didn’t have time to fully heat up in that time. That, paired with the whirlpool tub marked with a sign that it didn’t work, were a big disappointment given the chilly, windy, rainy February weather. The cornhole boards were there and we wanted to set them up in the garage, but alas, no bags to be found. All in all a huge property that can serve a large group, but best to make sure the amenities advertised are in fact available and operable.

Great beach house

This house was a great home base for our beach bachelorette party! Take note that they do not allow decorations on the walls or windows (something I didn’t realize until the week of the event). The boardwalk to the beach connects to the backyard which was amazing. The common area was a great space for hanging out with a group of 10. The only other thing we would have liked to have would be an outdoor shower - but overall a great experience!

The Great Driftaway

The Driftaway was a great local getaway for our family. The house had everything we needed especially the amount of space and Jacuzzi. The small issue we had with the garage panel was addressed in a timely manner by management and we appreciated it. We look forward to returning this summer.

Great House for a Big Group

Very Spacious and great Decks (views are limited). Only drawback, the board walk to the beach is not very long you have to walk through the dunes on a path, shoes are required, there were a lot of little briar balls

Plenty of room

The house had lots of room to spread out and it was very clean. There were lots of things to do, hot tub, ping pong and corn hole. The only thing I felt was missing was a few kitchen basics. Often times places have saran wrap, some spices, maybe a little olive oil. It was fine since we didn't do much cooking this time. All pots, pans, bowls, tupperware etc. We're provided..

Beautiful home near beach

The house comfortably held our family of 11. It was well stocked with plenty of dishes and bath towels. The walk to the beach was partially on wooden walkway but then you had to walk through the dunes. It would be nice if the walkway went all the way to the beach like other properties.

Space is great. Shower heads need changed. No cable or satellite TV, which we did not know when we rented. We called and were told we had to use our own Netflix or other program. We do not have those so no news/weather etc. but on our phone. Description says 50 feet to beach - not correct. The walkway is only partial and does not extend as the others do. Ice and water in frigid need work. Screened in porches are nice but very, very hot for June. Too hot for the kids to play out in. Large stain on comforter in double bedroom. We wasted it. All was clean except master toilet.

Mixed review

On the plus side the house has lots of space, large kitchen and eating area and living room. The porches are big and lovely and the neighborhood is quiet. The proximity to the beach is great. On the negative side there is nothing stocked in the kitchen but one salt shaker. The master bath exhaust didn’t work which made the bath and bedroom full of steam. All the linens were the rental kind, nothing luxurious or even nice. The worst was how dirty the tile floors were and there was nothing to clean them with. The management company did send housekeeping over to clean them. She did a nice job and her many mop heads were black! Needless to say, that should have been done before we arrived and dirties our socks. While the bedroom downstairs is very large there is no closet or storage space there. We were not able to connect to WiFi all week, which was very inconvenient. So, renter beware!

We came to Tybee on our annual motorcycle ride. we picked Tybee this year because none of us had been here before. We are 10 bikers from the age of 55 to 81 and we had a great time. the Driftaway property was very nice and just a short walk over the dunes to the beach. The community was very nice and welcoming.

Gorgeous house, amazing beach - absolutely perfect.

Came down for a bachelor/bachelorette weekend and this house was perfect. A walk from the beach and Tybee’s little strip - we were only able to coordinate our schedules on St. Patrick’s Day weekend and Driftaway was a perfect respite from the madness in Savannah.
