Where you'll be
Description
The main living area is on the second level, where you’ll be greeted by a grand, screened-in porch with ample lounge seating. It’s the ideal spot to enjoy a morning cup of coffee or share a meal at the outdoor dining table with seating for 6. The queen-sized swing bed is a fantastic feature of the porch, allowing guests to slip into vacation mode on Tybee Time easily. Through the front door, the classic feel of the original wood paneling extends across the living area, dining area, and kitchen walls and ceiling. The living room features a couch, extra seating, a wall-mounted smart TV, and a beautiful decorative fireplace. The dining area has seating for 6. The fully equipped kitchen makes preparing vacation meals a breeze with an oven, stovetop, dishwasher, refrigerator, and microwave.
Four of the bedrooms are located on the second floor as well. The primary bedroom, just off the main living area, features a king-sized bed, a flat-screen TV, and direct access to the outdoor deck through sliding glass doors. There is an adjoining bathroom with a shower and tub combination. Down the hallway are the remaining 3 bedrooms. The second primary bedroom can be accessed either through its own private entrance directly from the screened-in porch or Bedroom 4. The second Primary Bedroom has a queen bed and ensuite bathroom with a walk-in shower. Bedroom 3 has a king-sized bed, a wall-mounted flat-screen TV, and access to the hall bathroom. The hall bathroom features a shower and tub combination. Bedroom 4 has a queen bed. Bedroom 5, located on the lower level, is outfitted with a plush queen bed.
Head downstairs to the garage, where there is a ping pong table for hours of fun. There is a full-size washer and dryer, and an additional bathroom with a changing room and shower just off the garage, perfect for a quick change before a day at the beach. Wash off the sand after a day at the beach with an outdoor enclosed shower. Take the fun outdoors for a dip in the pool, backyard barbeque with a relaxing picnic area with a picnic table, lounge chairs, and even an outdoor hammock.
Caretta Cottage has parking for up to 3 vehicles. (Two cars in the driveway, and one in the garage.) The driveway is small, and large trucks or oversized vehicles may not fit. Pay-to-park spaces are available on the street for additional parking.

Caretta Cottage was a nice place to stay. Great location. Less than 1 block from the beach and a safe place to bike. Grocery store was 4 blocks away. Lots of interior space, but we spent most of our time on the beautiful, huge porch. Wi-fi was spotty. The garage doors are only accessible from the inside. It is Not handicap accessible, though one bathroom has a shower with a small curb, and there’s a walk-in shower in the basement (but that was using steps). My bad knees struggled up the steps, but it was worth it to stay there. We had an overall enjoyable time.

Great property. Good location to shopping, not far from the pier and just a short walk to the beach.

The location of this house was perfect! The public beach access was half a block away and the beach itself in that location was not super busy so you didn’t have to go far to pick a good spot. The house itself is older and could use some updates but the spacious screened porch was a highlight. One of the showers and the kitchen faucet took some getting used to - they initially sprayed everywhere if you weren’t careful. The AC was nice and cold and there were fans in all the rooms so we were able to stay cool even in the high summer heat and humidity.
