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 would love to win a trip to Tybee Island. Mary Kay’s books paint such a vivid picture of life and culture on the island. What a wonderful experience it would be!
I’ve never been to Tybee Island but I’ve seen several great post/pictures from you and other bloggers it just looks very inviting and beautiful, a relaxing step into the past. I’ll cross my fingers 🙂
I haven’t been to Tybee in years. I would love a getaway to the Island. The cottages are so adorable. It would feel like being in a MKA book!!
I’ve never been to Tybee, but have seen pictures and read about it. Sounds absolutely heavenly. What a wonderful place to visit after our long, harsh Midwestern winter. I am sure it would become a destination I would return to time and time again.
I love the cottage.
I have enjoyed seeing all the cottages sooooo much! I love the fun, casual decor. I’d love to see them in person!
This would be an amazing place to go for my Mom’s 75th birthday this year. Heck, it looks like an amazing place to go anytime of the year! 🙂
Believe it or not… I’ve never been to Tybee Island. I grew up in Upstate SC and we always went to the SC coast in the summer. We now live in Augusta, GA and so many here vacation at Tybee. We have been meaning to take a trip there, but have not found time to go as of yet. Here’s a chance to win a lovely trip and experience Tybee and a beautiful cottage! I want to win, I want to win, I want to win!!! 🙂
I haven’t had a chance to go to Tybee since the early 1980’s. I really would like to go again and get to stay in the wonderful cottages I’ve seen in pictures…..It would be a dream come true!
Just the thought of leaving Minnesota for a bit is so very appealing. It’s been quite the winter so far. And we’ve still at least 2 months to go. Your cottages are sweet.
I have read all the books and have always wanted to visit. Would be great to go.
Thanks
Beautiful. I love the Georgia coast!
Kudos to the photographer who captured the quaintness and quirkiness of the cottage… simply delightful! I love the mixture of colors and patterns which evoke memories and smiles. My eyes hunger for color and and my nose craves scents of warm breezes during this dreariest of Februarys… Thank-you for sharing.
A new and delighted fan. : )
I’ve NEVER been to Tybee! My husband grew up in Savannah and spent many summers there. So, now he likes to travel to experience other beaches! I would LOVE! to go to Tybee with our girls!!
Tybee Island?! The feel of the sand between my toes and the warmth of the sunshine would be absolutely amazing! Of course visiting the quaint shops, restaurants and biking along the coast with my Honey would be a delightful experience for sure!
so beautiful : )
Love the island life and it is so close to Savannah. My 60th birthday is in March and this cottage would make for a wonderful celebration destination!
Hi Rhoda…I am certainly not tired of your Tybee Island photos. I love all the houses, but this has to be my favorite. Sooooo cute. I happen to have those “vintage” shutters in my den with white painted paneling. I’ve started to replace them several times, but just couldn’t do it. I’m so glad I didn’t It always makes me feel good when I see photos of other homes decorated like mine. I also have a white/green kitchen. Yea…I’m not so bad at decorating after all.
I love the beauty and serenity of the beach and would love to visit Tybee Island. It looks amazing.
I’ve never been but know I would love everything about it. It would be a huge blessing to win this opportunity for a retreat in a lovely place. Thanks for the chance to participate.
