Lighthouse Inn Bed & Breakfast — Hotel in Tybee Island

My husband and I were very disappointed with our visit. The pictures online do not match what you experience in person. The property outside is very run down. Yard is not kept up, lawn is overgrown, exterior lawn lightening broken. The front porch was dirty with cobwebs on everything. The side porch furniture was dirty and rotting. There was dog feces on the sidewalk by the patio you had to walk to on the way to your car. The Inn is located in a run down neighborhood. As soon as you enter the Inn you are hit with a very old musty smell. The room was extremely small for the price. The bed advertised was a queen size but it was not. It was not comfortable. The other furniture in room was very old and uncomfortable. The cold and hot water did not work well. The outlet by the bed did not work. Once we checked in we never saw the owner again. The whole place had an overall spooky feeling. We were booked for two nights and we had to leave early after the first night because I was ill. I know the policy states no refunds for early departure but I feel an illness should be accommodated for a refund...

10 out of 5 stars!!!!! Best romantic anniversary getaway EVER!!! The new owner Pam, was the absolute perfect hostess. She expertly walked the very difficult line of being accommodating and gracious but not intrusive. The house was immaculate and beautifully appointed the location to the beach was fantastic, a 30 second bike ride! Everything you need is there, bikes, water, beach towels, beach chairs, evening snacks and wine, and breakfast was phenomenal.

It was our anniversary and we came back to the room to a mini gourmet cake that said happy anniversary! So nice and delicious! One morning we asked if we could eat breakfast outside by the pool, and before we knew she set up our breakfast outside waiting for us! And at the last minute we decided to have our anniversary dinner at the house, Pam quickly got our table set complete with candles, just above and beyond! We loved staying at the lighthouse bed and breakfast and having Pam as a perfect hostess made us love tybee island again, we have already made plans to Return this summer!

My husband and I decided on a spontaneous visit to Tybee Island this past weekend. It is one of our favorite places. I found The Lighthouse Inn through Trip Advisor. We stayed in the Blue Room. It was a lovely room and the accommodations were comfortable and relaxing. It was a quick walk to the North end of the beach and the neighborhood was very peaceful. ||Susie is an excellent host and we really enjoyed talking to her. She fixed a great breakfast both mornings. We love just good, normal breakfast food and that's what we got. Very good coffee too!||Susie told us a lot of stories about the island and we found that we actually had some things in common. She was there when we needed her but we felt totally at home and like we were the only ones there at other times. That is exactly what we were hoping for. ||This will definitely be our go-to place when we visit Tybee. Visit soon! You won't be...
