We really enjoyed this eclectic beach house, and loved waking up the ocean and beach right out the back door. The house is large, well stocked, and had more than enough spaced for my husband, our two girls, and my in-laws. It is a short walk to a few excellent restaurants, and we were able to get an uber easily to go to downtown Savannah for a day trip.
The home is deceptively large inside. Normally pictures on websites make the spaces seem bigger, that was the opposite here. We have a number of family members and we never felt like we were crowded or needed more space. the location is very easy to find and has great beach access.
The property was better than expected. Very close to the beach. Could see dolphins jumping out of the water from the deck. It had everything we needed. I would stay there again!
Amazing location. Dated decor, but who cares, you spend all your time enjoying the spectacular beach. The house is accessible except for the bathrooms, which need grab bars. Property management was responsive and super helpful.
A great time was had for our family!! Plenty of room for our family ,including 2 toddlers.This is the second year we have stayed at this property.The kitchen is totally stocked with anything that you may need,for we have some great cooks in our family.The house is clean enough,but could use more of a thorough cleaning .Really nice to have a big laundry room with an extra refrigerator.Hopefully it will be available to us next yearđ
Pros-plenty of space for large family, great location, not crowded beach
Cons- not near enough silverware, downstairs shower was not useable due to cracked floor, needs more bathroom towels
The house was great, right on the beach & within about a mile walking distance to restaurants and shops. The house is very spacious with plenty of room for 10 women. Having more cozy furniture in the living room would have been nice, but we spent most of our time at the table and out on the balcony. Would recommend this rental to others.
This location was perfect! Our group of eight friends was very comfortable. We enjoyed being able to enjoy the view from the covered porch when we came off the beach. We particularly enjoyed seeing the various ships coming and going. The house was very roomy and had everything we needed. When we discovered leaking from the ac unit, the property management had someone on site within a few hours. I do feel the downstairs could use a bit more attention as there was evidence in the ceiling of past water leaks. All in all, it was a great house and we would stay again.
Very spacious, well maintained home in a superb location. This house can accommodate a lot of people, as such the only minor gripe was that the kitchen needed bigger frying pans. Making breakfast was a challenge. Ocean Front Rentals were fabulous to work with. Highly recommend this home.
We enjoyed our our stay at the Bella Luna property. Cost of stay was primarily to house located directly on the beach. Could not ask for a better location. Positives- interior was clean, fresh quality towels, all appliances worked. Negatives- all furniture was worn & dated, exterior messy (beer cans & liquor bottles left on ground), landscaping not kept up, Overall the condition of our surroundings didn't keep us having a enjoyable week.
The ocean view from the home is spectacular. Definitely an old home and we noticed some roaches. @propertynmanger please address that issue. Overall it is good. Thanks
Overall, we hung out on the deck. Beautiful location where we could enjoy the beach from the deck or a close walk. The place has very uncomfortable furniture and the bed mattresses were all pretty hard. It needs a thorough cleaning, dusting the ceiling fans mostly. We really loved the kitchen but the burners don't all work nor the microwave. We enjoyed ourselves on the deck. Please get rid of that wicker furniture that all 6 of us couldn't sit on for long. Great place, though. Just needs updating!!
Bella Luna was a lovely home with a few issues. The location is fabulous, close to the beach, restaurants & shopping. Only a few changes would make this home an absolute 5 star stay. First, the living room furniture needs replaced. Uncomfortable, old & not enough seating. for everyone. Second, the carpet in the main floor bedroom needs replaced. Stained & dirty. The rest of the house, (flooring), is laminate & is easily kept clean. The overall house was clean, roomy & a great vacation spot. Despite the above issues, we would definitely rent this house again!!!
The house has a great view and big rooms. Weird smell in master toilet space.
Appliances are too dated and kitchen equipment is understocked and unorganized. The kitchen refrigerator didn't cook properly nor have a filter fresh to use. No blender. Lack of pots and pans.
Not enough porch furniture for seating. Uncomfortable mattresses.
The cleaner came at 9:30 looking in the windows, with us already having a. Unusually early 10 am checkout this made it more stressful.
Having to pick up and drop off physical keys is highly inconvenient. Get a lockbox onsite. And provide beach towels and chairs, just charge more if stolen.
The views/location from the house are wonderful. However, I had multiple issues with the property management. First, they tried to have me sign a 3rd party outside contract, which is against VRBO's policies and contradicted some of their policies on VRBO (stricter cancellation policy, age requirements, etc). Second, I had asked for an early check in, which was wonderful that they offered, however when I went to confirm they told me it was an extra $114 which they did not initially tell me and am also not sure is allowed on based on VRBO's policies. Third, we arrived at the house only to find that one of the twin mattresses listed online was missing- so we reached out to the property manager on VRBO without ANY response. We had to have a guest sleep on a couch (not a pull out couch even) the entire stay because we could not contact the property management.
Also, the house itself is completely empty of what I would consider basic necessities. No salt/pepper, cooking sprays, 1 tiny thing of soap/dishwasher pods, etc. We tried to walk to the market on the island to get more cleaning supplies, only to find out they do not sell any dishwashing liquid/pods- so bring EVERY little detail you will need for the stay, salt and all.
Overall, the location was wonderful and we had a great stay, but you can definitely tell this is just one of many properties this company manages and be prepared to be treated like just another number to them.
3 of the bedrooms are perfect for adults. The other two bedroom on the first floor are more suited for children or young teens. The open-floor plan upstairs is wonderful with plenty of room for eating and lounging.Beach access is amazing - private path as close to the water as possible. Property managers are extremely helpful. They responded immediately to any questions we had.
This house is in an amazing location. The interior is spacious. We had 4 generations all together and the layout worked perfectly. Tybee Island is a hidden gem.
The house is spacious, comfortable and in a beautiful location. The layout downstairs is a little quirky, but we liked it. We had no problems with the state of the furniture, as some reviews have said (and I'm a stickler for that sort of thing). It's a beach house. So, we didn't expect fine leather furniture. It was clean and comfortable.
The rental staff was great. They reached out to us before the trip and were very helpful.
