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.
I LOVE Tybee Island. My husband and I used to visit a lot and stay near the lighthouse on the north end of the island. I love to watch the shrimp boats dock in the inlet at night while I sit on the deck and have a glass of wine and read. No visit to Tybee is complete without a trip to the Breakfast Club. Love that place.
Mary Kay paints the picture of a laid back, small beach town that is relaxing! I’ve lived in the suburbs of Atlanta my whole life and NEVER been to Savannah or Tybee! I’d love to visit Tybee!
Love the Breeze Inn
How wonderful would this be??!!! PICK ME, PICK ME !! Thanks for the chance to win this dream escape.
Oh, my! I feel the sand, smell the sea, and feel relaxed just looking at the pictures of the wonderful cottage. Thank you and Diane for making this available to one of us – I’m already envious of whomever is chosen! By the way, MKA, I’m delighted to keep hearing about your writing; we are not-so-patiently awaiting your next book.
The beach brings me back to a feeling of serenity and hope. I can solve all my problems while ignoring those people who annoy me. The warm sun, sand between my toes and the smell of suntan oil can make everything right with the world. These cottages are my fantasy come to life and Mary Kay’s books take me to a world I would love to inhabit at times (those antique shops, a world of people who appreciate old things…)
Being a Georgia girl, I love Tybee! My first visit was to the 4-H camp and since then this has been one of my favorite destinations. The beach is great and you can’t beat breakfast at the Breakfast Club and watching the sunset at Dockside.
Well,I’ve never been to Tybee Island but have always wanted to visit,but I do know its on the out skirts of Savannah and I do love Savannah
Looks so relaxing. Love the beach. 🙂
I have only visited Tybee Island for a day visit, and I fell in love with it. I love the sense of community and how laid back and easy going life is there. I have always wanted to visit there longer. I would love to win this and. E able to take my two girls.
Well I just want to go place warm! I’m from Maryland and it’s been a hard winter. I love Georgia, but have never been to the coast. Always Atlanta. Peggy
I’ve never been to Tybee Island, but any place on the Atlantic Ocean is super in my book!! I love the pictures from the Inns…they make you want ot stay there!!
It would be a dream come true to win! Mary Kay Andrews is my favorite author. Over the past year I have been a caregiver for my 82 year old mother in law. She loves to read but couldn’t get out to get any new books so I brought over all my MKA books. She adored them and it became an instant bons for us discussing all her books. She just passed away 3 weeks ago and it would be wonderful to win in memory of her.
Oh I can just taste it. In the middle of winter here in Montana and I am dreaming of the beach. Would be such an incredible girls getaway. I could bring together friends from different places and see them all at once. No matter who wins they will be so happy!
absolutely adore the colorful cottages and the sumptuous scents out on tybee. nothing like living in your flip-flops and feeling right at home! thank you for sharing a little bit of the island with us across the country1
i adore those colorful cottages. my favorite interiors are the conversation heart colors and the whimsical feel. can’t wait to shed my shoes for flip-flops, and breathe in that special scent that screams SUMMer. 🙂
Tybee Island is beautiful! I would love to stay in one of these cottages!
Love Tybee from the first moment I went there. I ended up having my destination Wedding there as well. The southern charm mixed with the laid back beach is awesome.
What a fun trip this would be for me and my daughter. Always wanted to visit!
I would love to visit Tybee Island and just relax in one of those beautiful cottages with my hubby. We just celebrated our 20 year wedding anniversary and this would be perfect!!
