It’s been 7 years since we went on the beach trip to Tybee Island that was so much fun. Since summer is here, I thought you’d enjoy a peek at Mary Kay Andrews Breeze Inn again. It will get you in the mood for a beach trip for sure. Please note, the giveaway was long ago, this is not a current post!
******************************************
I hope you are not tired of seeing these beach cottages on Tybee Island, because I warned you I took lots of pics. They are too beautiful not to share! One of the cottages that our group stayed in on Tybee Island with Mermaid Cottages was The Breeze Inn, another of Mary Kay Andrews beach cottages. It’s such a beauty with an old style beach feel, just as you’d expect from a 60’s beach resort. That’s the feel some of these cottages have. I love the nostalgia created on Tybee and it truly is a fun getaway. I can’t wait to go back!
The Breeze Inn. Doesn’t this pic just make you smile?
Inside is a welcoming beach cottage chock full of vintage goodness.
Bookcases filled with books and slipcovered chairs.
The living room is a happy mix of coral, blues, and greens. Those cute vintage shutters make the space so quaint. Check out those lamps, too cute.
An old fashioned ceiling fan.
Living room looking towards the dining area. Check out the sailfish over the TV.
Fish chest by the front door.
Looking into one room with a daybed.
Turquoise daybed.
Charming white planked walls going upstairs.
Right out back is a cute screened porch with an old green glider and vintage rattan furniture. I love this mix and the SEA sign.
The Sea, what a great place to relax.
The pink fridge was fun.
The whole screened porch.
One of the bedrooms.
And bathroom
Upstairs, is a room with 3 twin beds and it has such a cute feel with red, white, and blue Americana.
Love this, can’t you see 3 little ones in here?
The master in shades of blue and white.
Love all those shuttered windows.
Armoire with old suitcases.
This little hallway goes to the master bath inside the bedroom.
Very cute and quaint in shades of soft blue and white. Look at that bird holding the toilet paper roll.
A cute little ducky.
Treasures from the sea on those vintage sconces.
A cute desk with old typewriter and above is Mary Kay’s book covers framed.
A Breeze Inn vignette.
Downstairs bath.
I love the old watering cans and pails she has collected.
A warning for guests…Careful you’ll end up in my novel.
The kitchen with white cabinets and lime green walls. You know I love this!
And that big ole’ cast iron sink makes me smile too.
Such a cute kitchen with the vintage red signs.
A lovely wall.
Vintage curtains too probably made from an old tablecloth.
We sure loved gathering in here and seeing all the cottages up close. The 4 Pike Road, AL ladies stayed in this cottage and they loved it. I can see why. It’s so charming and adorable.
Tybee is just the best! MK’s cottage is SO adorable!
I would love some time in the sun with my feet in the sand! I am so tired of snow and cold weather.
Love the vintage feel of the cottages, and my son and his family live in Savannah.I have been wanting to go visit.
I love the beach and the cottages, but I’m very fair skinned and can’t stay out all day. So, there’s Savannah. Perfect.
The beach! I’ve been dreaming about these Mermaid cottages for a long time now.
I’ve visited Tybee a hundred times…in my mind. I just live reading and looking at all of the fun to be had there. I can see myself at every location. Thanks so much for the chance. My fingers and toes are crossed!
The sand and beach really. Love the sound of the ocean especially at night.
My husband and I went to Tybee Island for our honeymoon in 2010. We loved it! We took our bikes and went kayaking. Being from Maryland I had never heard of Tybee Island until I started reading Mary Kay Andrews’ wonderful books. We were enchanted by the homeyness and laid-back atmosphere of the island. We’re hoping to go back next year for our fifth anniversary!
The ocean air.
The sea food.
The calm.
The lack of responsibility.
The away-ness.
Do I have to choose one!
Oh my, what fun and funky cottages! Love the kitsch, the porchs everything about them! Aw to have the opportunity to relax, unwind and see it all. I am a lover of architechture and water and history. This could quite possibly be my favorite place. What a gift it is you give. This prize can mean the world to the recipient. Bless you!
It looks lovely. I would love to stay there with my 3 sisters!
I love love love the vintage look, color scheme and it looks like a great place to curl up with a MK Andrews novel, so I would have to time my visit with her next book release. Tybee has the beach and nearby Savannah. What’s not to love!
It has been awhile since I was at Tybee, but I loved the feeling of being back in a simpler, more relaxing time.
I love MK’s desk w/ the antique typewriter, phone & fan…the ideas must just flow! The whole atmosphere is conducive to relaxing. You can’t leave there without feeling rejuvenated.
Staying “on location’ for one of MK Andrew’s books sounds like so much fun! Especially with my four sisters!
I love Tybee. I live in Savannah so to stay there is like having a staycation which is sometimes the best kind of get-a-way!!!!!
I have walked by the Breeze Inn soooooo many times and have wondered how it looked inside…..I felt like I had been there. That pink refrigerator is so cool! Thanks for the great pics!
Started reading MK Andrew’s books after seeing her cottage in Better Homes and Gardens a few years back. Tybee Island is now on my bucket list! Sea Breeze Inn is my favorite of all the Mermaid Cottages! I also follow Rhoda’s blog at Southernhospitality. Both amazing women!
To simply exhale………….
I love the light and air of Tybee Island and the seafood!
