For a pretty nice location, this property is tired and worn out. It needs a facelift. The room smelled smokey and the bathroom was awful. They did have lots of towels

DeSoto hotel - quick and easy getaway with the oce
Terrific 3 day visit to Tybee island on my own. The stay at DeSoto was peaceful and quiet. Hotel is just feet from the beach, with a pool to cool off when things get too hot. Room service came every day, and they immediately took care of a room issue I had upon arriving (minor issue with AC that was addressed - cool air flowed quickly afterward).

Great amenities, on the beach
The hotel is a bit older but clean and very functional. The microwave and fridge in the room allowed us to make snacks and bring them to the beach. The breakfast was perfect with pastries and little breakfast biscuits. Front desk staff very nice and able to give us some great dining recommendations.

The DeSoto Beach Hotel was steps away from the beach. There is a nice boardwalk to the beach. The pool is small but very clean. The property overall is a bit dated, but it is very clean! The staff were very friendly. Parking was easy too. We would definitely stay again. Our room had a small fridge and a microwave and coffee maker. The microwave and coffee maker weren't near a plug - which we thought was odd. Overall - great place to stay in Tybee Island. We didn't eat the breakfast but there seemed to be plenty of continental type breakfast foods and coffee.
