Big Wave | Private Pool Optional Heat, Hot Tub
Go "Big Wave" and go Home! Big Wave is a Tybee vacation home that checks off every box to satisfy your perfect beach vacation home desires. This pristine vacation home was built with guests in mind with top-end amenities, including a gourmet kitchen, a sparkling pool, a screened-in porch, hot tub, a fenced yard, and a covered, screened entertainment area with an all-ages entertainment area for guests to enjoy.
Enter this beautiful home on the second floor through the spacious screened-in porch that is ready for enjoying the Tybee breezes with rocking chairs, a porch swing, and an outdoor dining table. Once inside, you will find the wide-open floor plan living, dining, and kitchen areas. The ample open space has a dining table for 8, occasional seating, and a cozy sofa as well as counter seating at the large center island. The center island will become the hub of activity for all the guests to gather around. The fully equipped kitchen includes quartz countertops with all stainless steel appliances, including a gas range, double ovens, and two dishwashers to clean up a breeze. Just off the kitchen, there is a large laundry room and a butler's pantry. This main floor of the home also includes a half bathroom and the first-floor primary suite.
There are two King suites in this home. Bedroom 1, on the main level, is furnished with a King size bed and has a large flat-screen TV. This room has access to the screened main level porch and a private screened porch, perfect for enjoying morning coffee or tea. The ensuite bathroom has dual vanities with quartz countertops and a large custom walk-in shower with dual shower heads and glass tile accents. Up the stairs, the third floor is home to three bedrooms and a bonus kids loft. Bedroom 2, the second King suite, mimics the main-floor bedroom with a king-size bed, ensuite bathroom with dual vanities, and a large walk-in shower. Bedroom 3 is furnished with a Queen size bed and a flat-screen TV and features a writing desk nook and an ensuite bathroom with a tub and shower combination. Bedroom 4 has two twin beds and connects with the bonus kids' loft area with built-in twin bunk beds and a flat-screen TV with a video game console and lots of board games to enjoy. The shared guest bathroom on this level has a tub and shower combination.
The spiral staircase from the second-floor living area takes you down to the ground floor. Once Outside, catch all the "Big Wave" action in the beautiful inground pool with waterfall feature. The fun continues in the screened porch entertainment area under the house. Challenge your guests to a game of ping-pong or corn hole, catch all the action on the large flat-screen TV and chill out at the bar for ultimate relaxation. Take a dip in the hot tub in the evenings to unwind from the day. There is a mini-fridge for beverages and a gas grill for cookouts, and an enclosed outdoor shower for rinsing off after a day at the beach. The private fenced backyard includes a beautiful pool and patio, as well as a green space for kids to run safely.
The home has WiFi and parking for up to four vehicles. Guests can choose to add optional pool heat for an additional cost (not available in January or February). The home is less than ½ mile to the Tybee Pier and Pavilion and all the shops and restaurants, about a six-minute walk. And only a block away from Alley 3, Tybee's public boat ramp, which is an excellent spot for launching kayaks to explore our waterways and marshes. This home is not pet-friendly.

Big Wave was perfect for our annual beach vacation with friends and family! Plenty of space for everyone in the home- close to the beach and
a great walkable location to shops and restaurants!
We were in town for a week...the house is in a great location off the main drag! Close to everything on the island and only a short drive to Savannah. The house was very clean, the pool and hot tub were great. Everything made for a very enjoyable visit.
Big Wave was great for our family trip. We enjoyed cooking meals together and the screened in porch was wonderful. Although the weather wasn’t quite
Warm enough, we couldn’t resist the pool.
It poured buckets the whole weekend and we had a blast. Left the place only for brief forays to find food. A great porch to play games on with the family and watch the rain. Close enough to restaurants to walk. Would definitely stay again when we could see the beach
Overall very happy with my stay. One issue, upon arrival the pool was dirty and had to call to have it cleaned. Also they charge for pool heating and still the pool was not heated very much. Had to call and still the maintenance was not able to increase temperature.
Overall we had a really wonderful experience! The house is in a great location within easy walking distance to both the beaches and the main strip, on a quiet street, beautifully decorated, and has plenty of space for a crowd. Only two very minor issues; the pool wasn't clean when we arrived, but we knew this would be the case as the prop mngr called to inform us their vacuum broke prior to our arrival. The grill also ran out of gas the first time we tried to use it, but they brought us a replacement tank the next morning. Other than that, the only other thing worth noting is there was only a bare minimum of bath towels provided, and the floors were rather sandy upon arrival. Otherwise we really enjoyed our stay and will definitely be booking again!
Tybee Vacation Rentals manages this property for the home owners and they weren't great to deal with. We didn't have hot water the first day. They told us that its b/c the hot water heater is located outside and takes minutes to make its way to the showers, but we had two different maintenance guys out and the second one who arrived while we were there told us there was a definite issue. On the second day, the shower in the master bath upstairs simply wouldn't turn on. I communicated with Tybee Vacation Rentals several times. They sent out a maintenance guy who was completely baffled and didn't know how to fix it and said they'd have to send a plumber. Despite repeated follow-ups with Tybee Vacation Rentals, they never sent a plumber and we didn't have use of the shower for the remainder of the trip. When I called after the trip to complain about the lack of service, they explained that there's two handles in the shower and we must have not been using the right one. Which is not true and at all and is completely condescending. They refused to give us any reimbursement for the stay other than return of the $100 service fee. With 8 people staying in the house, loss of one of the showers was less than ideal. And Tybee Vacation Rentals are not helpful nor do they apparently care for return business as they wouldn't do any refund (other than the $100).
Perfect location, lots of room, loved the double dishwasher, and was thrilled it was right in between the big beach with waves..yet also next to the calm inlet for the little ones to swim in.
We chose this property to enjoy Tybee Island and have a girls weekend. The location was great with a short walk to the beach.
The heated pool was amazing and the perfect temp. There are some small things that need to change like, the toilet seat was broken in the master, the floors needed to be clean a little more, and there was lights out throughout the house. But overall we would recommend this home.
This is a beautiful house and was just right for our family of 9 (parents, teens, and young adults).
