About this house rental
The Idler offers guests an excellent retreat for a family beach vacation or weekend get-a-way on Tybee Island. Located on a large corner lot only two blocks to the nearest beach access, this home is an excellent option for families or couples who desire to take a break and stay idle and relax on Tybee time.
From the entryway on the ground level, a wide staircase greets you and takes you to the main level just up the stairs. This home's open floor plan living area is bright and inviting with lots of windows, comfortable furnishings including a sleeper sofa and a large Smart TV. There is a dining area with a table that seats 4. Just off the living area is a large screened-in porch that is an extension of the living space, complete with a dining table for six and conversational seating. The fully equipped kitchen is open to the dining area with a center island ready to take on your favorite vacation meals.
Both bedrooms have a Queen size bed. There is a large flat-screen TV in one of the bedrooms. The two guest bedrooms share a full bathroom on this level. Downstairs is a full-size washer and dryer, and a second full bathroom with a walk-in shower. Outdoors there is a gas grill, basketball goal, and a fire pit to enjoy.
This cozy Tybee mid-island home is just a short two-block walk to the beach and a short stroll to Tybee's Memorial Park, which offers tennis, basketball, sand volleyball courts, and an island-themed playground. The Idler is on Second Avenue, Tybee Island's dedicated bike path, so be sure to bring your bicycles or plan on renting them while visiting. Touring on two wheels is the best way to see all of Tybee!

We had a great stay at the Idler with our family and my daughter’s dog! The house itself was plenty of room for 4 adults and could have easily accommodated more. The bedrooms were all comfortable with ample closet space. The kitchen was very well equipped with everything you need to make meals. Living room had plenty of space for everyone to spread out and relax. Really loved the enclosed porch with a dining table, comfy chairs and couch along with a ceiling fan! The house is in a nice neighborhood that was great for walking our pup. We were also in walking distance to Salt Island Restaurant and some other bars and Sugar Shack for ice cream. Lastly we were a 3 minute walk to the 2nd street beach entrance to the mid beach area. Even on Saturday and Sunday that section of the beach wasn’t crowded. The distance to the beach made it perfect for those that wanted to head back from beach early or to grab lunch and then head back to beach. Our only criticism would be that the WiFi isn’t strong, as seems the case on the island, so if you plan to do remote work you will want to have a hotspot. If we come back to Tybee we will be back at the Idler!

If you plan on spending most of your time on the beach, this house is perfect! 3 minute walk to the beach and several restaurants and 3 ice cream shops. I loved that this wasn’t as crowded as the rest of the island.
I love Tybee Vacation Rentals! They are polite and tried to be accommodating.
I didn’t give this as many stars because the house really showed it’s age. Check in was at 4. They got there at 2 to clean and do maintenance—not enough time to get it all done. I had issues with the dishwasher. I was given a GC and paper plates, utensils, and cups. The dishwasher wasn’t fixed and I ended up washing dishes by hand my last night there. I wouldn’t plan on cooking because the kitchen is bare bones. Plan on eating out and reheating left overs. There is no proper master suite. All the bedrooms share one bathroom. The second bathroom is downstairs. The upstairs bathroom shows it’s age.
I will say we loved the outdoor space! We spent lots of time on the time covered porch upstairs.
