By Anonymous U, Posted: 07/10/2024A great, unexpected location!
Our family has visited Tybee Island many times, usually staying mid-island or south-island, so this part of Tybee was new to us. This comfortable house is on a quiet street and has a beautiful view of a tidal creek. We walked to the river each evening to watch the sunset and look for dolphins. We got bikes for the first time and that was a fun way to explore Tybee. There are cute shops and good restaurants an easy walk from the house. We'll be back!The North end has so much going for it and you can see the whole area by bike in minutes! We are so happy you loved Stella Maris as much as we do! It is such a comfortable and cute cottage. Please do come back because we would love to have you again!

We just recently stayed at Stella Maris for my birthday week. If you stayed here in the past then you have not stayed here. Totally updated with beautiful colors and amenities. Sitting on the porch with a breeze looking out over the marsh turns even a hard day at work into bliss. Plenty of space for two families to enjoy. Multiple access points make for an easy walk or bike ride to the beach. Something for everyone and lots of space for quality family time. Can’t wait to enjoy this gem again!It sounds like you love Stella Maris as much as we do! We are so happy you enjoyed the spacious has and gorgeous marsh views! Please come stay again at Stella Maris again soon!

Thank you Stella Maris! What a charming spot. Our 2 families, 8 in total were very comfortable. Porch is a gem. Watched birds hunting in the marsh from the kitchen table while drinking my morning cup of coffee. Hucapoos a 2 block walk , watching ships, and fishing at Polk Street Beach was a plus too. We will definitely stay here again.We agree! Stella Maris is absolutely a hidden gem on Tybee Island. We are so happy you enjoyed your stay and would love to have you again in the future!
