“Should have stayed additional days @ DeSoto B&B”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 December 2011

Our first trip to Tybee Island and with so many accomadations to select from, I couldn't be any happier than the DeSoto B&B. The room was perfect. We stayed in the Atlantic and had a small view of the Atlantic Ocean, and woke up to the beautful Sun Rising (we had the curtain open) and got up, and walked to the beach. We stayed there 12/6/11 and the weather was perfect.
Debbie prepared an amazing breakfast for my husband and I the next morning, and she was wonderful. A local of the ISLAND and she had so many interesting "Tybee Time" events to share with us. When we return to Tybee, we will certainly stay at the Desoto. Hands Down!

Room Tip: The Atlantic is facing the Ocean, however the B&B is not beach front so there is only a small ar...

“Greaty Location, great breakfast, not so good rooms”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 December 2011

I and my wife with two adult kids stayed at DeSoto Bed & Breakfast "Nautilus Suite". It is spacious and comfortable with old style southern decor. Bathroom was nice, clean and modern. But the suite had a musty smell. It may be due to the fact that suite is not centrally air conditioned (has a potable AC units) yet widows are sealed shut and can not be opened. It took a while before room ac unit could reduce humidity which in turn reduced musty smell. There was no view of the sea at all. But the beach is only about 50 feet and one can walk barefoot to the beach. The Beach itself is very pretty with white sand.
The Breakfast were very well done. The service was just marvelous. The breakfast cook is a very cheerful woman who treated us as like family. The Breakfast alone is worth the visit.
We could stay for one night only. Next time we will stay longer.

Bottomline - It was a good value, barefoot walking to beach, great breakfast and we will go back.

“A much needed rest and I succeeded”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 September 2011

Atlanta can be grueling and sometimes you just have to get away. Not too far or not too expensive, but you want the best accomadations. This way when you get back to the city you dont want to scream at the sight of your boss! Desoto Beach Bed and Breakfast was perfect. I needed some alone time and that is what I got, but I also got breakfast on the patio every morning with some of the best coffee I've ever had. After breakfast a much needed nap on the hammock with a cool breeze on a summer day. At 5:00pm after walking back less than one minute from the beach, I was greeted with my choice of red or white wine, and an assorment of cheeses. This allowed me to meet others staying in the bed and breakfast, and get some great ideas on how to plan the rest of my stay. I was thrilled that I chose a great place to stay, and saddened when my vacation came to an end. If you are looking for fun, or just relaxtion this is the place to stay. I plan on making this a bi-annual trip. The only thing is would change is upgrading the bedding.

“Felt like home away from home.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 August 2011

I want to acknoldge the girls at the front desk for being super helpful. I called several times to ask questions and they never seemed irritated with me, they were very pleasant and gave great directions. The properly really is on the beach. Took us about 20 seconds to walk to the beach from the front door of the house. We checked in late and by the morning we were awakened by the delicious smell of coffee and breakfast. Debra was our wonderful, friendly, "make you feel right at home" housekeeper. She made breakfast (and eggs to order) for everyone staying in the house Saturday and Sunday morning, and then left us freshly baked cookies for the rest of the afternoon. She is not only a great cook, but quite a gem for this establishment. If it werent for her our experience would have been quite different. We will definetly be back!! Thank you for a wodnerful experience, our first time on Tybee!

Room Tip: We stayed in the smaller (queen bed) room of the B&B, we didnt have an ocean view but there was...
