About this property

Watch the ships from your private balcony overlooking the beach!| By Southern Belle Tybee

When you need a Tybee Island vacation, Shipwatch 24A is a great choice. This vacation home is perfectly sized for smaller parties, and it provides everything you need to enjoy your time on the island. Booking Shipwatch 24A gives you access to an oceanside experience and amenities galore.

Find Your Home Away From Home at Shipwatch 24A
As soon as you walk into our Tybee vacation rentals, the relaxation begins. With its soft cream and blue decor, Shipwatch 24A instantly provides a serene and beachy vibe. Through the front door you will find a spacious open floor plan living room filled with natural light. Large glass doors provide a beautiful view of the sparkling ocean and swaying palm trees. In the living room, a roomy couch and cozy armchairs are the perfect spot to kick back and relax with your loved ones.

The living room flows into a kitchen and dining area that seats four people. You can easily chat with friends or family in the living room while you cook a nice dinner or whip up a quick breakfast. The fully equipped kitchen lets you dine in whenever you want to save a little money or skip the wait at a restaurant. If you aren't in the mood to eat at the four-seater dining table, walk out onto the balcony where a bar provides space for an oceanside dining experience. Aptly named, Shipwatch 24A offers fantastic views of the ocean where you can watch the enormous cargo ships coming to port in Savannah.

The balcony connects to both the living room and the main bedroom. In the main bedroom, you can unwind on the queen sized bed while enjoying another ocean view. This restful room has its own en-suite bathroom with a shower and tub, making it ideal for people who want a little privacy on their vacation. The second bedroom is located off the main living space, and it has two single beds situated within it. This bedroom also gets its own bath, which has a tub and shower within it.

Our Tybee Vacation Rentals Provide a Wide Range of Amenities
To ensure you have the best possible stay at our Tybee vacation homes, we make sure you have a lot of great amenities to enjoy. We start by offering all our guests peace of mind. Shipwatch 24A will be professionally cleaned and disinfected before you even arrive. With self check-in and a keypad door lock, you and your guests can arrive at whatever time is convenient for you.

The condo community at Lighthouse Point offers great amenities for your vacation enjoyment. Walk along the private boardwalk to reach the ocean, or enjoy a freshwater swim at the two on site (not heated) swimming pools and kiddie pool. You will also has access to the community's tennis courts, sun deck, and shared gas and charcoal grills, so there are plenty of fun things to do outside. During the colder months, or if you just feel like a change of scenery, you can also check out the Southern Belle guest exclusive heated pool located at 19 Silver Ave.

Shipwatch 24A provides plenty of amenities for a home-like experience as well. Fresh towels, linens, bedding, and pillows let you easily unwind in a cozy setting. We include soap, shampoo, hair dryers, irons, and laundry machines, so you don't have to pack your whole bathroom and closet for your vacation. In the kitchen, you have access to all the cooking basics. The fully equipped kitchen includes a refrigerator, stove, oven, microwave, and dishwasher. We also provide clean dishes, pots, utensils, and other essentials.

In addition to the helpful amenities, we also give you the amenities you need to relax. Wifi makes it easy to stay connected to others or even get some work done, and the television lets you catch up on your favorite shows.

Relax on the Peaceful North Tip of Tybee Island
Of course one of the biggest perks of our vacation rentals Tybee Island is their location. Shipwatch 24A is situated right on the northern tip of Tybee Island. North Beach has a reputation for being the most laid back side of the island. This all-natural spot is great for searching for shells, learning to surf, or trying to spot dolphins. Though this location is certainly peaceful, there are still plenty of things to do. You can visit Fort Screven, check out the Tybee Island Marine Science Center, or go to the Tybee Island Light Station. Shipwatch 24A is also right by Huc A Poos, Gerald's Pig and Shrimp, and some other iconic Tybee Island restaurants.

When you are in the mood to explore a little more, there are plenty of great things to do just a short bike ride away. Both Mid Beach and South Beach have plenty of fun things to do. Walk down to the Tybee Pier to fish or rent a kayak to check out the island's saltwater marshes. Tybee Island is filled with charming shops, tasty restaurants, and fun bars. Consider going to the historic Sugar Shack for a sweet treat, or grab some fresh seafood at Sting Ray's Seafood. If you like nightlife, there are plenty of great spots to get a drink, like Doc's Bar and Tybee Time. You can enjoy live music at spots like Rock House and The Sand Bar.

Finally, don't forget that Tybee Island is just a quick drive away from Savannah. You can easily go check out famous Savannah festivals, parades, and other events. The town is also a great area to explore historic Victorian architecture, cutting-edge art galleries, and high-end dining. Many people enjoy a quick day trip to Savannah before coming back to their Tybee vacation homes to relax.

Nice little getaway for two people

Property was good for us (two people). It was close to the water and the views were enjoyable. Enjoyed watching the ships come and go from the port. The condo could use some updates (i.e. kitchen, and bathrooms). Overall was a good value. We enjoyed Tybee Island. Much to offer on the island. And close to Savannah.

Great View/So-so Condo

The overall property’s location and proximity to restaurants and shops is very good. The resort didn’t offer much in terms of recreation other than the three pools and tennis courts. The pools were not heated and the water was too cold to swim. The resort offered another optional pool that was heated however it wasn’t on the property and was 20 minutes away. Overall the condo while decorated in a fun and beachy vibe had a lot of problems related to items such as doors that creaked, wouldn’t close and stuck when trying to open. We were on the first floor and every morning the people above us woke us up due to poor construction. You shouldn’t hear people walking, talking or running the faucets. The dishwasher would come out of its cavity when opened and nearly fall to the floor. That needs immediate attention. The microwave had rust around the opening and it chipped off a part of the rusted metal. Both bathrooms need to be updated and all kitchen appliances need replacing except the refrigerator which is new. Clutter in all the closets and under the bed is unnecessary. Overall I wouldn’t stay here again even though the view is beautiful! broke off and

Shipwatch

Great place to stay! Loved the condo, location, sheets, quietness. The rugs in living area need replacing; otherwise it was really nice. Parking was great, but not covered. When hurricane was coming, we asked for a covered area for car, but none was available. I will probably go back and stay there again.

Beautiful view!!!

Million dollar view. Bathrooms really need to be updates, especially the showers and toilets. Mattresses need to be replaced. King set especially. Love the floors. I would pay more for an updated unit. One flight of stairs is my limit. We so enjoyed the binoculars for the balcony. What a thoughtful touch. Also SPECIAL THANKS TO Staff who took our call at 930 p.m. and guided us in to our location.

Pleasant stay and would recommend especially if you want the “quieter” area of Tybee. Easy access to the beach. Pool and resort pool both very nice. Not much in walking distance from the unit. Very comfortable and clean. Would be nice if they had some beach chairs and beach towels in the condo to use. Very nice stay.

Great place!

I loved our balcony and view of the dunes and ocean. Very comfortable place with everything we needed. The door code was very annoying and kept locking us out, the property managers wouldn't provide us with a key so we just left the place unlocked. Otherwise, great place to stay near a quiet beach.

Clean and comfortable condo

We came to Tybee for a quick getaway, and this was a perfect place to relax, watch the sunrise and sunset, and just a short walk over the dunes to the beach. The unit was clean, comfortable and well laid out. The Southern Belle property management team was quick to respond to any questions and efficient with check-in instructions, etc. Would stay here again!
