About this property

Desirable Southend. 5BR. Dipping Pool! NO Cleaning Fee!

New Tybee STVR regulations restrict our home to 12 adults (16+ years old). Maximum, with children, is 16 guests.

Casa Oceano Rio is the ultimate Tybee vacation rental. Located at the convergence of the Atlantic Ocean and Tybee's Back River it is less than a block to 5 miles of one of the best beaches on the east coast. It is also less than a block walk (250 yds) to the secluded and protected Back River beach which offers a quieter and more tranquil environment. Perfext for sunsets!

We renovated the 1st floor and restored original 'bath house' from 1929. 1st floor has 2 large BR, 2 baths, including laundry facilities. 2nd floor has kitchen, living room, dining room, 2 BR, and 1 1/2 baths. 3rd floor is the open floor plan primary bedroom suite with large bathroom with dual sinks and a large walk in slate shower. Spiral staircase provides access to the roof top deck for a panoramic view of the island and the most amazing sunsets.

This private residence features a 12 person dipping pool that is ideal for relaxing after a day at the beach or on the water. This home offers all the toys for an unforgettable beach vacation including beach carts, beach chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards, beach toys and a large cooler on wheels. No need to pack up all this stuff and bring it with you.

This home is in Tybee's popular southend area. It is off the main thoroughfares but within walking distance of Tybee's main shopping, restaurant and nightlife district.

Great place to vacation with multiple families and friends. Especially kid friendly as the kids like the privacy of staying downstairs with their own bedrooms and baths, while the adults like the quiet of being upstairs. This is a family home in a quiet neighborhood and the rental party must be 25 years old.

For your safety, there are 4 external cameras (24/7) to monitor both driveways and entrances to both gates providing access to the home. No cameras on pool or decks. No audio recording and there are NO internal cameras.

Great trip!
The house was wonderful, exactly what we needed! Location was so close to the beach and they provided everything we could possibly need. Jane the property manager was amazing and very prompt at returning my call. We stay at different properties a lot, but this will definitely be one we use again!

Great Location, Great House
An amazing amount, almost too much, cookware and appliances. Air conditioning was great, we had to turn down the pre-sets. The pool was a nice way to cool off. Still, the South Beach location is the main attraction since we spent one year on the North Beach before finding SB. It's so close to both the SB, Tybee Creek and the main fishing pier/shop area. Having 4 parking spots was luxury. The garage was well stocked with beach wagons, beach and surf toys. A problem with electricity was solved immediately by the caretakers. Drinks on the rooftop at sunset!

Great House
My family and I rent out a beach house every year at different beaches. This was hands down my favorite place. We had 11 people; ages ranging from 5 to 80 years old. The bedrooms were spaced out perfectly that everyone had there own area. The house had every accommodation you would want or need. The only thing that you need to bring is a beach towel. The added touches with decor and all the provisions with the house; beach chair's umbrella's; wagons; beach toys; flash lights down to the insect repellent were greatly appreciated.The distance to the beach and quaint area was amazing. The owner's, the host; Jane and her husband were awesome. Any questions regarding the house were answered quickly. No reason to stay at another beach house, this is definitely the one. Best vacation ever!

Great family beach vacation
We planned a big family vacation and had a wonderful time at this property! The house is huge and offers many large, comfortable beds and separate rooms to accommodate separate families. We cooked almost all meals at the house and had every utensil and appliance we needed. The house is also well-stocked with all the beach gear you’ll need so you can leave all that at home! The only thing I would change is for the WiFi at the home to work better; it didn’t reach throughout the house and even where it reached, it was too weak to even work on the TVs in the home.

August Stay
This place was nice! Short walk to the beach was great. Beds were super comfortable. The property manager was very helpful. The full size washer and dryer was nice but they were stacked and it was difficult to reach the dryer, we had to use a step stool. The shower in the downstairs was a little weird. The knob to turn the water on and off was so high that my short family members could not reach it.

About the host

Hosted by Jane Hall

Host profile image
This home was our family residence for 17 years. We raised our 2 sons here and we are now empty nesters. We have moved back into the house in the off season and it's only available from Memorial Weekend through Labor Day as we travel. We are happy to share our little slice of heaven with others.

Why they chose this property

Willie bought this property and the public shower houses back in the 80s and built his dream home around it. He maintained the integrity of the shower houses and the original tile is still in the first floor bathrooms today. He loves everything about the water (sailing, fishing, boating, etc.) and it was his dream to live at the beach. He then built our home around the shower houses and the rest is history.

What makes this property unique

Just an ideal location. Close to back river and ocean, but also within walking distance to the Pier and the Strand.
