Tybee Cottages – Cozy & Fun

Published by Tybee Concierge under Places to Stay, Vacation Rentals on Tybee Island

 One of the charms of Tybee Island is that fact that there are many historic cottages still left over from the early days. Tybee’s history dates back to the 1700’s when Gen. James Edward Oglethorpe built a lookout tower to watch for the Spanish who were in Florida. But it wasn’t until the late 1800’s that Tybee came into its own as a “resort” and fun vacation destination. D.G. Purse convinced the railroad to build a track from Savannah to Tybee and the rich began coming out to frolic, fish, and have fun. They began to build themselves small “cottage” type homes to stay in when they visited, saving costs in staying at hotels and boarding houses. These cottages took on an architecture all their own that can now only be found here on the East Coast.

The cottages are usually built up off the ground, have shallow-hipped roofs, deep porches all around, made of heart-pine (a kind of wood termites do not like) and faced the East to take advantage of the ocean breezes. They are charming, historic, cozy and delightful.

Some years back, a Tybee islander, Jane Coslick, began refurbishing the cottages, remodeling them on the inside to have the modern amenities, and painting them bright and fun colors, making them whimsical and charming. Her work has been featured in magazines and books.

Tybee Vacation Rentals has a myriad of these wonderful cottages for your vacation stay. With names like Sea Biscuit, Surf Puppy, Chimney Pot, and Endless Summer to name a few, the cottages provide a “fairyland” type stay on the Island. Go to our website: www.tybeevacationrentals.com and take a look at some of these lovely cottages, then book one for a truly delightful experience. Or call 877.468.1654.

Published by Tybee Concierge under Uncategorized

In their efforts to stay on top of the newest technology and ideas in the Vacation Rental Management Industry, Tybee Vacation Rentals will be sending employees to The Leaders Conference in Orlando, Florida. The participants will learn about best practices as well as challenges in the Vacation Rental industry; marketing campaigns that get the phone ringing; what they should know about social media; and more. TVR prides itself on keeping abreast of the latest research in their field to assist their owners in receiving as many rentals as possible, and to assist their guests with the best possible experiences in renting at Tybee.

Amy Gaster, one of the co-owners of TVR, will be attending with her staff, underscoring the importance of management participating in the same training sessions as the staff. “That way,” said Ms. Gaster, “we’ll be on the same page and we can come back and discuss together what practices we can use in our office.”

TVR sends their staff to several conferences a year, keeping sharp their already stellar services. As one participant said, “we go and sharpen our axes to retain our edge in the industry.”

For information on renting from TVR, call 877.468.1654 or go to www.tybeevacationrentals.com .
