  This is a great little cottage, away from the main drag and noise but close enough to walk to everything. It is a value priced rental and the owner, Mary Elizabeth, takes great pride in maintaining a cozy home atmosphere for vacationers! I have used other rentals when Canty's is unavailable but I try my best to use this one every time!

  I had stayed at another Mermaid location last year and knew I would be back! This lovely cottage is wonderful, clean and quiet! Well with the exception of the what we now call the wapptychopper birds (they sound like helicopters). lol The only thing that would make this property better would be a TV in the front living room and an extra bathroom. But it is extremely clean and had all the little extras that were very nice. I would stay here again.

  • Manager Responded on 5/6/2012

    So glad to hear you enjoyed Canty's! We appreciate you returning to visit us again! We hope you will plan to return again real soon. Call us! We look forward to hearing from you! Let us know you would prefer a cottage with 2 full baths and we will be happy to assist in selecting the perfect one for your next stay! ~The Mermaids of Tybee Island

  This experience was our second one at Canty's Cottage, and I have to say that it was as perfect as the first time. The private setting, convenient location and homey atmosphere are just a few of the reasons why we love it so much. We keep thinking that maybe we should try a different spot on Tybee, but Canty's Cottage, I think, is impossible to beat! Can't wait till next time.

  • Manager Responded on 5/1/2012

    We are so glad that you enjoyed another great stay at Canty's! We love to hear from our repeat guests that have found a favorite cottage! We can't wait until you return next time either; please make it soon! ~The Mermiads of Tybee Island

  Holly H R from Empire, Mi recommends this vacation rental

  We rented our Mermaid cottage in late March~how wonderful to have unseasonably warm temperatures and minimal tourists! We loved the S. end location of our cottage "Canty's", just a block to amazing sunsets and a few blocks to a quiet beach...Hardly any traffic at this location either.
  Our only issue was the TV not working upon our arrival - but we called the maintenance man (college basketball finals were on!) and he came directly and had it fixed in no time! "Canty's" is well appointed, and cozy - a great space. For what it's worth - we were concerned about 5 people w/ only 1 full bath and it was never an issue! We would recommend it for comfort & location in a heartbeat!

  • Manager Responded on 4/8/2012

    Thanks for your comments. So glad you enjoyed Canty's, great temperatures, little traffic and sunsets on a quiet beach...what could be better??? We hope you will plan a return visit real soon! ~The Mermaids of Tybee Island

  Was a perfect place for my sister and I to stay. Cute,clean,comfortable, and close to the beach. Mermaid Cottage ladies were very helpful and kind. Even though we live in the middle of the country we are beach girls at heart. Had never been to Tybee but fell in love with it. We would stay at Canty's Cottage again.

  • Manager Responded on 3/12/2012

    We are so happy that you had a great time and enjoyed Canty's! And, we are delighted that you fell in love with our island; Tybee is a great place to relax and unwind! We hope to see you back again real soon! ~The Mermaids of Tybee Island

  Ginny H from Courtlandt Manor, NY recommends this vacation rental

  We spent the month of January on Tybee Island at Canty's Cottage. The cottage was extremely clean, comfortable and decorated with fun orignal beach artwork that made the cottage very cheerful. Mermaid Cottages staff made and effort to be certain that we were comfortable and had everything we needed. Very nice group to rent from. We loved the location of our cottage across the street from the inlet on the southern end of the island. Tybee Island was a beautiful, down home place, nice easy pace with good restaurants and friendly people. It was everything we hoped for and more.

  • Manager Responded on 2/12/2012

    Hi Ginny! So glad that you had a wonderful month with us! We hope you will find another time during the year to return to Tybee, and we would love to have you back in one of our cottages. Thank you for taking the time to respond to our review! Susan - Mermaid Cottages

  I absolutely loved the cottage! It was decorated beautifully, was clean and had everything we needed for cooking, beach going, etc. I was impressed that I was called a couple of times to see if I needed anything. That has never happened to me before! Mary Elizabeth was totally awesome! What a wonderful experience and great vacation!

  Vickie T from Calera, AL recommends this vacation rental

  I previously lived in Savannah but moved away over 20 years ago. I had the opportunity to come back for a visit during Pirate Fest Weekend with some old friends. My friends and I all had a great time and loved Canty's cottage. Although it was a few blocks away from the downtown area, we were able to walk to and from events with no problems and enjoyed getting to spend time with old friends and get caught up. I would recommend Canty's Cottage to my friends. I loved being able to go straight to the house without having to stop in the office to check in. On line check in is the best! This made the process smooth since there were several of us who came at different times and from different locations. Loved the atmosphere of the cottage!!!!!

Many thanks to the staff & owner who were so gracious & helpful, even when we needed a temporary wheelchair ramp ~ it was ready waiting for us! So go enjoy for yourself!!

  This is the 2nd time I have stayed at Mermaid Cottages! I will definitely stay with them again! Diane and the Mermaids are very professional from the start of making the reservations until departure. Canty's Cottage was great in providing something for
  everyone. We enjoyed the patio area and Tiki Hut. Inside you had all the comforts of home.

  We were beyond pleased with our stay. It is the perfect location. Couldnt be more clean and Mermaid Management ROCKS!!! We arrived on friday and the next day they checked in on us to make sure everything was ok and gave us great suggestions of where to eat and what to not miss. It was wonderful and we wouldnt want to stay anywhere but with Mermaid Cottages! If you eat anywhere make sure it is Sundaes, it is amazing! Loved the pimento and tomato sandwich! The home owner was soooo sweet! Cannot wait to visit again soon!! and thanks so much for making our first visit to Tybee the greatest! The place was perfect!!!!

  Mary Elizabeth, the owner of Canty's Cottage, clearly has pride of ownership of this great vacation rental. It's wonderfully maintained, very clean, and quite homey. There's ample space to hang out, the three bedrooms are nicely decorated, and there are nice extras like beach towels, a back patio, and two bicycles. We could walk to the beach in about 10 minutes (nice to not have to pay for parking) and the neighborhood around Canty's is just lovely. We hope to return and would definitely recommend it to others!

  Bob M from Atlanta, GA recommends this vacation rental

  The tv in the living room was of poor quality and cut off part of the top and bottom of the picture. It needs to be replaced. I bought a flat screen 26" Insignia tv(Best Buy brand) for $300.00 a few years ago. Consumer Reports high rating. It was great. Can get something a little bigger(37") for the same or a little more money.
  
  It would be very helpful to haver a few beach lounge chairs that we could carry to the nearby beach. Just inexpensive light lounge chairs.

  Toni D from Fayetteville, GA recommends this vacation rental

  needed a bit more furniture to watch TV. another toilet would have been nice. closer to beach would have been awesome. TV in other room rather than kids would have been good also. We had a great time though and the outside furniture and grill worked good. A little more grass in back for kids to play. It was a little rough but overall was very good place to just relax. Most kitchen stuff was there which was nice. Water pressure was very low in kitchen sink which was strange. All other areas it was fine. Nice place and comfortable though. We enjoyed it. We had my dad and stepmom join us and it was fun. The storm messed us up a little bit and brought windy cold weather. We saw Fort Pulaski and lighthouse though. Have told friends already though about the place.

  We have been to Tybee many times, but this time was the best. Canty's was a great place to stay. We have 3 kids and it fit us perfectly. The house comes with two bikes and we rented two more from Tim's as well as a carrier for the baby. We rode all over the island. It was wonderful! Ready to come back.

  We spent our spring break in Canty's Cottage on Tybee Island and just loved it! The cottage was beautiful, quiet, super clean and perfect for all ages in the family. The beds were very soft and comfy...kitchen fully equipped...and cottage has lots of space and nice yard and porch. My children especially enjoyed the hammock out back and riding bikes all around. The beach is close by as well as plenty of places to eat and shop. We would highly recommend this cottage rental to anyone. It's even better than the photos!!

  Canty's Cottage was perfect for our family. Our boys were able to play soccer & baseball in the back yard and side yard. We enjoyed watching them from the tiki hut. It has many comfortable options for outdoor/indoor seating, with nice upgrades including granite countertops and a large pantry. It has a very "homey" feel. We enjoyed walking & riding bikes everywhere - to dinner, the beach, and to a nearby spot to watch the beautiful sunset!

  We had a wonderful relaxing time with our family and pets. Although it was out of season and the weather was not the best it did not spoil our stay. The cottage was ideal and both my husband and I would love to live there full time. We will definately be paying another visit to Canty's Cottage.
