Unique Retreat w/ Classic Beach Charm + Ocean Views

Welcome to 1 Shirley Road, one of Tybee Island’s most iconic original homes. This charming 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath coastal retreat offers unbeatable ocean views and is just steps from the beach. Blending classic beach cottage charm with modern comforts, it’s perfect for families or friends seeking an authentic Tybee getaway.

Step outside to find not one, but multiple decks designed for coastal living. A downstairs covered deck offers a shaded spot to enjoy your morning coffee or unwind with a good book, while the upstairs open deck is perfect for taking in the panoramic views of the Atlantic Ocean.

Inside, you’ll be greeted by original wood-paneled walls, a multi-level layout, and a relaxed, beachy atmosphere that captures the true spirit of Tybee. With multiple living areas spread across the levels, there’s plenty of space for everyone to unwind. The home also features a fully equipped kitchen with all the essentials for preparing meals, plus a dining area where your group can gather for family-style dinners, game nights, or morning coffee before hitting the beach.

The primary bedroom features a queen bed and a private half bath. The second bedroom includes a queen bed, and third bedroom offers two twin beds, both conveniently located near a shared full bathroom. Upstairs, you’ll find a second full bathroom and an additional living area with a futon sleeper, perfect for extra guests or a cozy reading spot with elevated views.

Located in Mid Beach, you’re minutes from Tybee Island Light Station & Museum, Fort Screven, and the Tybee Pier and Pavilion. Enjoy fishing, live music, kayaking, paddleboarding, or dolphin cruises. Nearby dining spots like The Deck, Fannies on the Beach, and The Crab Shack offer fresh seafood and island vibes—all a short drive or bike ride away.

Book your stay at 1 Shirley Road today and experience the true spirit of Tybee Island!
