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 and all these wonderful pictures you are sharing remind me of Nags Head/Kitty Hawk/Kill Devil Hills we used to always visit back in the ’60-’70s. Oh how I wish my father didn’t sell that cottage!! I would love to get away from the hustle and bustle of life with my husband or girlfriends for a weekend there!
My favorite Tybee Island ‘thing’ is the beach at the end of the island. It is so flat and soft. When the tide goes out you can walk out for what seems like a mile. All kinds of small tide pools to sit it too. Best beach for swimming too. Soft bottom sand with NO shells or rocks anywhere. We’d go back to Tybee for this beach alone. Perfect for families with kids.
I love Tybee. We have stayed several times. Once in a Mermaid Cottage. Dianne is so helpful and will ride her bike to you if you are in need. What I love most about Tybee is it’s quirkiness while still being a quaint place.
Thanks Rhoda and Dianne!
love the laid back atmosphere and the wonderful seafood!!!
This would be such a fun girls weekend trip!!
I have been reading your blog and enjoying your pictures from Tybee Island. I have never been, but I am planning to go this spring . The pictures you have posted have been so inviting we have decided to go to Tybee island instead of Hilton Head Island. I am looking at renting a cottage would Love to win a few extra days!☀️
I spent my first anniversary there! Years later would love to share the area with our three kids. Also, my favorite blogger has turned me into a huge MKA fan.
My husband and I got married on the beach in Tybee. We would love to return and visit one of the mermaid cottages.
I grew up at a New Eengland beach and just love the ogled style beach cottages. Would love to visit Tybee Island!
I love Tybee Island! It is the most laid back beachy Island we have yet to find and would love to be able to visit one more time!

The cottages are just perfect. We haven’t been to the coast in a looooong time and that would be the perfect getaway. Thanks for sharing all the great pics-not enough of them for me 😉
I need warm weather, a sandy beach, and ocean breezes. I would love a vacation on Tybee!
Love the serene “yesterday” feel present on Tybee Island. A place to relax and renew.
This beach looks so charming…the commercializations of other beaches is missing and it looks adorable. Looks like a good time for a girlfriends getaway,
I love the mixture of shabby chic and beach antique! It makes me want to put my feet up and relax!
I have totally enjoyed the photgraphic journey of all the cottages. I would love to be able to spend some time here.
I would LOVE to stay in a vintage beach cottage!!!
I love Tybee Island!
Celebrating our 40th wedding anniversary this year, a trip to Tybee would be the perfect place to enjoy and remember the years! Thanks for a chance to win.
WOW… What a gracious give away!!! Nothing better than a beachside cottage get away…. !!! Love… love Mary Kay Andrews’ books… had to laugh at the towel with the warning on it !!! Would be kind of fun to end up in one of her novels!!!!!! lol
