Pile your Christmas presents under the fruit trees and make your holiday season the most memorable ever. Memories at the Beach circa 1950 is a fully renovated cottage that faces East and is hidden behind a canopy of grapefruit , orange, fig and lime trees.
This mid-century, all-electric home has been restored using the “reduce, reuse and recyle” concepts. The owners were as green as possible, as evidenced by the Energy Star high efficiency washer, dryer, refrigerator and the bamboo blinds.
All the rooms have ceiling fans to circulate the air inside and all light bulbs are CFL.
It does have an outdoor shower ( solar powered) and enclosed, making it a real luxury for rinsing off beach sand and saltwater before heading inside!
The original 1950’s bathroom is still Mamie Eisenhower pink, which was the color of choice for the women of the 1950’s. The second bathroom is a large walk in shower with a rain forest shower head. Our guests truly love this shower.
Memories at the Beach is the beach home of a wonderful couple from Tennessee who discovered Tybee a few years ago . This beach haven reminded them of the shore towns they had visited as children.
The home is a summary of the owners’ love of the ocean, coastal south and the wonderful memories they have from trips to the beach.
It’s their desire to share their cottage with others who need a peaceful retreat and a place to rejuvenate and create Memories at the Beach with their family and friends.
Pile your Christmas presents under the fruit trees and celebrate a very Merry Christmas with a little sand added in for good measure. Enjoy cottage charm and coastal calm with Mermaid Cottages.
