2nd house back from the beach, wraparound porches with water and sunsets views!

This lovely single family home is located just one house back from Tybee Island’s Back River beach and is a wonderful place to relax with family and friends. Enjoy sea breezes from spacious wraparound porches, views of Little Tybee Island and beautiful sunsets. Access to the beach is only a few feet away! Tucked away from crowds in a quiet residential neighborhood, the cottage is only a short stroll from the larger oceanfront beach, restaurants, shops, and the parade route.
The house is very bright and open, with cheerful colors, an abundance of windows, and views of the water. Sliding glass doors in every single room, except the dining room, lead to 10' deep wraparound porches. With over 1,300 square feet of outdoor living space, there are multiple sitting and dining areas on the porches, including a coveted top floor hammock! The best place to clean up after a long day of fun in the sun is in the outdoor shower, which has hot and cold water and is conveniently located next to the gate to the beach.
The fishing pier can be a little busy on weekends during peak season, but privacy fences and mature trees, including a beautiful old oak in the front yard, help make the house feel secluded. As one guest put it, it's like you are in a large tree house!
While staying here it is a treat to watch beautiful sunsets over the water from the porches (especially in the winter), walk out the side gate to the beach a few short steps away, relax in a chair on the sand or stroll around the front beach to see the action, kayak across the river to Little Tybee Island (a paradise in itself!), be close to restaurants and shopping but far away from the crowds, watch dolphins play in the river... the list goes on!
Neighborhood: This end of the island is the best... Somewhat undiscovered part of the beach in a residential neighborhood, with commercial activity near enough to walk to (by beach or road). It is also a very convenient spot to nose your boat up to the beach, have friends hop on board and take off to explore the surrounding waterways and uninhabited islands.
Getting around: It’s fun to tour the island on bikes, golf carts, and kayaks (guests either rent or bring their own).
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. There's a private balcony. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a Smart television is provided for your entertainment. The bathroom with a shower/tub combination features a jetted bathtub and a hair dryer.
Take in the views from a garden and make use of amenities such as barbecue grills and bike storage.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

Great Home
The home was beautiful! We really enjoyed all of the outdoor spaces. We had a small family reunion, and the house suited our needs perfectly. We loved the location of the property, as it was very close to the beach and downtown area. It’s very walkable. We loved our trip, and Susan was fabulous!

Interesting Stay
Our annual girls weekend was one to remember. We were hit with outerbands of Hurricane Helene and lost power for a day and a half. Susan was in touch the whole time checking on us and providing water, flashlight and chilled wine. We were very fortunate to have minial impact and wre able to enjoy the rest of the beautiful weekend. The house was described. We loved the various outdoor seating areas, the living room with plenty of seating for the 9 of us and the proximity to the beach.

Perfect Getaway on Tybee!
We loved our stay on Tybee Island! This was our first trip to Tybee and I'm sure it won't be our last. The house was perfect for our family. I always look for the "4 C's" when going on beach vacations...Clean, Comfortable, Cool, and Close. This spot had all of those. Steps to the creek-side beach and an 8-10 minute walk from the ocean-side beach...less than 10 to the main area with shops and restaurants and such. The house itself was the perfect beach-style house. Lots of light with plenty of room for everyone to spread out. Plus, there was almost as much room outside on the porches as there was on the inside. We ended up using the dining room table for a puzzle and eating outside on the porch for dinners and inside at the kitchen bar and breakfast table for other meals. Communication with the owner was fantastic (we had no concerns during our stay, but she checked in anyway and I'm sure would have been right on top of any issues we might have had). Really, just a beautiful house at a beautiful beach!

Relaxing
We visited Tybee while my daughters was at SCAD summer program. We enjoyed time with my husband's two brothers, wives and teenage children. We all truly relaxed and enjoyed the home, beach and biking. The location is spectacular!! and the home is beautiful and welcoming!! We cooked, had family dinners and enjoyed family games. Lasting memories were made. We are planning our next get a way to Tybee with hopes that the Anna Mia Cottage is available.

Tybee Vacation House
This was a very nice property and a close walk to the beach. The home is beautiful, with large rooms and plenty of space. The home was fully stocked with plates, cups, silverware, pans, etc. There were also beach chairs, umbrellas, kayaks, and other items we were able to use. The host stayed in communication and contacted us prior to arrival. The only thing to keep in mind is we learned you cannot have people park on the grass or unpaved driveway (we had family staying elsewhere park their for going to the beach). Nor are you allowed to have many guests over. The host did communicate about these items with us and was easy to talk with. I would recommend staying here.

Tybee Beach House
We came in for our son and his wife's baby shower in Savanah. It was a perfect get away for my wife and I, her 2 sisters and brother, his wife and our other son. Quite an eclectic group. We had plenty of space to be together or apart. We played ping pong, walked the beach, grilled burgers, at at the Wylde and did a puzzle (Thanks Susan). We will be back.

Great property close to the beach with convenient beach access and fishing pier. Beautiful porches with a great breeze and view of the water and sunsets. Plenty of room for everyone to spread out. Nice bathrooms and bedrooms. More noise from the side beach access and the construction on the property in front of us than we anticipated. Stove/oven was slow to cook. Would stay here again.

The house was fabulous. Great location to everything especially the beach. Susan was kind and quick to respond. The house had everything you would need for a few people or a large group. The porch was our favorite spot. One of the nicest rentals I have stayed in and the house was also extremely clean.

Great stay for whole family!
We needed a 5-bedroom house for our family to attend a funeral with very little time to book one. Found this comfortable house that perfectly fit the bill. The ocean proximity was a nice bonus and the little ones loved the stash of beach toys. Comfortable, clean with lots of shady porches, it suited our needs perfectly. Susan could not have been a kinder or more attentive hostess. Looking forward to our next stay there - minus the funeral of course!

Anna Mia is a fabulous house and was the perfect place for our family of 11. The family room and kitchen are very large and everyone was able to be together here or spread out in one of the many seating areas on the magnificent porches. Susan was an awesome host and answered lots of questions about the area and gave great tips. We would definitely stay here again.
