Cozy, Comfortable, and Clean!

We enjoyed our seven night stay at the Octopus Lair last month. We found the accommodations to be perfect for myself and my husband. Wonderful location close to beach and grocery store. So relaxing rocking on the screened in porch, listening to the morning birds and enjoying the evening sunsets. Cathy responded quickly to any questions we had and the check in/check out was super easy. The washer and dryer on site were very handy as were the beach chairs. Loved watching the bike path activity and experiencing the Tybee Island vibe! Our first visit won’t be our last!

Wonderful

From booking to check out it all went well. The owner was very on top of everything with her descriptions of the property and any extras I had questions about. It located perfect on the block as far as traffic and ease of coming and going. It’s close to everything but not too close to get all the noise. I would rent this property again!

Cathy the owner is truly amazing and this is a great walk to things close by even the beach!This year we got to see two ospreys perching up in the trees on the property, what a sight to see!This is very clean, just our size and again, Cathy the owner amazing and friendly, close to things in walking distance. Great place to stay and visit for a while and even make a friend or two! I would highly recommend.We look forward to returning again on our next visit there.

Anniversary Weekend

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. We loved the short walk to the beach and into the town. The screened in porch was a plus, especially to enjoy a glass of wine in the evening. The only negative issue was the guests that were supposed to move in downstairs apartment on Friday, were given our code for the lockbox. They tried to contact Cathy, but unfortunately were unable to. I spent about a half an hour trying to help them. They ended up leaving and had another rental already in the works. It was definitely an odd situation. Otherwise, everything was exactly as stated Cathy was wonderful and contacted us immediately when we reached out to her. We would definitely stay at this location again and would recommend it to family and friends.

Sometimes you just gotta dance in the rain

The room was fantastic and although it’s a fair walk from a lot of the restaurants, that just means it is a lot quieter at night and it allows you to just sit on the porch and relax (without pests bothering you because it’s screened in!). Unfortunately me and my spouse went during some nasty weather, but at least we were in an absolutely lovely place!

Amazing oasis getaway

The owner of this property is very sweet, connects with you and thorough. Great communication with any questions I had, the place was very clean, convenient to the beach ( a walk away). All pictures and descriptions are exactly that. The atmosphere was that of the beaches and ocean which added to the atmosphere for me of being on vacation. I really enjoyed a sleep number bed ~ smiles~. I am sure to come again, but for much longer next time, and this was my first of many to enjoy in the future.

Snared by the Lair

Online listing details spot on. Very clean, with eclectic decorations and comfortable furniture. Located on a "bike path" street with very little vehicular traffic. West facing screened porch was icing on a very colorful cake! Convenient to beaches, restaurants, and shops. Honestly, our departure came way too soon. We hope someday soon to return!

Perfect location, clean, quiet getaway!

We stayed five nights at the Octopus Lair and it did not disappoint! It was extremely clean and inviting and a great price! We had everything we needed for our beach vacation. The location was perfect! Almost everything we wanted to do was a bike ride away and renting bikes was easy and a really fun way to see the island. We got an Uber for the dolphin tour and to spend the day in Savannah, but other than that, we were able to walk or bike everywhere! We came home each evening to a quiet, clean place and slept like babies! Thanks for sharing this beautiful spot in the world!

Pre High Season Retreat

We enjoyed the location in dynamics to the downtown area and the beach and went for lots of walks. The firepit and the front screened in porch with a good view were very relaxing. The bed was comfortable, the kitchen appliances were newer and the free on site laundry room was definitely a blessing. Savanna was only 20 minutes away and was beautiful. You'll enjoy it.
