More Mini Mermaid Getaways

beach bikesIt’s busy time for Tybee Island vacation rentals and that means lots of guests staying a week or longer back to back.  Maybe it’s not convenient for you to stay an entire week, but most places require you to book 5-7 nights at a time.  What do you do?  Well, thanks to the growing interest in our little barrier island we sometimes have two nights open here or three nights available there, which means more options for you!  Just give us a call when you’ve got a couple of days for a getaway and say, “Give me some more Mini Mermaid Getaways!”  These are also great for last minute, spur-of-the-moment road trips to the beach, too!
