Great beach trip!

This was our first time at Tybee and we had a great time. We loved Toes in the Sand! It is everything you need for your beach trip. Close to the beach and on the quieter side of Tybee. We would love to come again.

Great pet friendly house within 2 blocks to beach and Resturant’s

Great place. We had 3 kids and a dog. 14,12,10 and 100lb goldendoodle. We live at the jersey shore and this place is great. Shower needs to be raised and drain needs to drain faster. We would return. Go to Geralds for bbq and Huck-a-poos for inexpensive food (nachos are banging)and craft beer.

Needs love

This property is not very well stocked. It shows a fireplace in the photos and although that is not listed as an amenity when it is in the photo you expect that to be a functioning item which was very disappointing. The reclining sofa did not close properly on the left-hand side and there’s no dishwasher which was not listed but it’s expected for this price point. Also the listing says $20 for the pet fee when actually it is $20 per night per pet which is also very misleading

Worth every penny!

This house was in a central location only a few blocks from the beach and restaurants. The home was very clean upon arrival & just as pictured! They have a pet area downstairs which was convenient in those early morning and late nights. The property manager called to check on us during our stay. We had the best time at toes in the sand and can’t wait to return!

First Time on Tybee

We absolutely enjoyed out stay at this property. Our dogs go everywhere with us and finding this perfect pet friendly property made our trip even more special. The dog run was great! We loved sitting out on the deck in the mornings and in the evenings. It felt as if we were sitting up in a tree house! The house was perfect for our stay. It was a great location just a short walk to the beach, shopping and restaurants. It was very clean and had everything we needed during our stay.

We don’t want to leave 🤣

Very convenient location, we really enjoyed the shaded deck. There are two swings under the deck that were a big hit for my neice! We slept 5 people very comfortably. Only suggestion would be to be make sure you don’t spray any water on concrete because when it’s wet it gets very slippery. Loved the decor and enjoyed reading about the owners. Great place to stay with or without your pets. We really appreciated the fenced section for our pup! Would definitely recommend!

January/February 2020 Stay

We had a wonderful experience staying at Toes in the Sand! We also highly recommend Tybee Vacation Rentals! We stayed for six weeks, it’s perfect for long-term or short stay rental. It’s very tastefully decorated and there is a wonderful amount of smart storage. It is less than a quarter-mile to the beach. It’s mid island so a very easy walk/bike ride to the lighthouse area at North Beach or the pier area at South Beach. Reviews from years past mention a smell in the washer and an uncomfortable bed in the master bedroom. Those issues have been taken care of. The deck is large and gets a nice amount of sun, with a nice big, clean grill to cook on. It’s great to have a carport and the stairs to the cottage are covered. The outdoor shower is adjacent to the carport, has a seat and many hooks. It also has a long hose that can be used for rinsing bikes, beach chairs etc. It was very comfortable for four adults but might be tight for six. We highly recommend this cute beach cottage!!

Very nice place. Really close to the beach! It was far from the strip and pier though.

I was impressed with the stay. Only wish that it had more rest rooms. Very nice place. Really close to the beach! It was far from the strip and pier though. The one restroom is the only negative thing it has. I will return only if my spouse and I are the only occupants.

April 2018 Stay

This was our fourth trip to Tybee but our first time staying in a house on the island. We had a great stay at Toes in the Sand. Its a very nice little house, perfect for our family of four with a quick little walk to the beach and convenient to grocery stores and the highway. The dog run was a nice addition but I wish it wasn't advertised as a "fenced in yard" since its about a 5x15 foot dog lot and we had been excited about not having to worry about the kids playing in the yard. Everything we needed as far as paper products and dishes were present though, which was nice. The only other minor complaint is the fact that the door was keyless entry which means you can't dead bolt or lock it from the inside which led to me chasing my 18 month old son (he's a little wild) down the back stairs of the house every single time I looked away, about 73 times in total. But overall we really enjoyed ourselves and were lucky to get to spend a week in this beautiful little home away from home.
