Southern Belle Vacation Rentals in Savannah, GA, and Tybee Island, GA provides first-class amenities including access to our exclusive resort-style heated pool located at 19 Silver Avenue, Tybee Island GA. All of our homes are professionally cleaned after each stay, and disinfected using a quaternary disinfectant throughout the entire property prior to each new arrival.
Are you looking to plan a historic Savannah vacation? Maybe you're already in the middle of planning and have realized just how many Savannah vacation rentals there are to choose from. Southern Belle is here to make your choice much easier. We have many amazing downtown Savannah rentals that will make your choice easy and get your vacation started right.
One of our great Savannah vacation rentals is the Diplomat House. The Diplomat House is located very close to Forsyth Park, which gives you easy access to downtown Savannah. Restaurants and grocery stores are also within walking distance so you can get everything you need to relax in your home away from home. This amazing property sleeps eight in four bedrooms and three bathrooms. It also has a pool, which is unique among downtown Savannah rentals.
This home has two private parking spots, so you'll have no problem getting around if you decide to rent a car. Two of the house's four bedrooms are upstairs and one even overlooks the pool. Both upstairs bedrooms are very private and great for relaxing and getting away. The master bedroom is on the main level of the house and has a queen bed, a decorative fireplace, flat-screen streaming TV, hardwood floor and large windows to let in plenty of light. The master is located off the living room, and across from it is the fourth bedroom of the house. This bedroom also has a queen bed, hardwood floor and a decorative fireplace. Large windows allow you to let in the light or cover them with the blinds.
Head downstairs and discover the perfect space for visiting with guests. There are two rooms right off the pool area. One of the rooms is great for just hanging out with a bar that provides seating for four, a large flat-screen streaming TV, tile floors that are great for bare feet just out of the pool and lots of space to mill around. The other room off the pool area is a formal dining room with a table that seats eight. The pool is cleaned every Friday so the weekend is always free and clear to enjoy the pool. A skimmer is provided as well for keeping things clean during the week.
Looking for things to do on your historic Savannah vacation? Look no further, there are unlimited sightseeing possibilities in the town. Forsyth Park, which is right near the Diplomat House is a beautiful green space that is worth walking through. It's a 30 acre historical landmark that has a cast-iron fountain with two tiers that is one of the most popularly photographed items in the city. Touring Savannah gives you plenty of options as well. You can walk, take a horse-drawn carriage or an Old Town Trolley Tour. If ghosts are your thing, you might want to check out the evening ghost tours.
If you have a bit of extra time to spend on your historic Savannah vacation, you might consider checking out some of the festivals and celebrations that happen every year in the Savannah area. Make sure and ask Southern Belle about the events that might be happening during your stay.
Here's a list of possible events you could enjoy:
• Annual Savannah Black Heritage Festival in February • Annual Tour of Homes & Gardens in March • Savannah Garden Expo in April • Scottish Games Festival in May • Fourth of July Fireworks on the Beach in July • Seafood & Music Festival in August • Savannah Jazz Festival in September • Rock-N-Roll Marathon in November

Our visit started with an unfortunate surprise - the house had not been cleaned from the previous occupants. Thankfully, our hosts got right on it and had a cleaning crew there within an hour. As recompense, we were credited the cleaning fee.Otherwise, the property was as advertised, very comfortable and convenient to the historic district.On the downside, there were several minor maintenance needs, such as loose door handles and a recalcitrant toilet paper holder. It must also be noted that the mattresses are due for replacement - no matter where you start you’ll end up in the sunken middle.Those issues aside, we’d happily rent the property again.

The house was very nice and in a very convenient location. Spacious, well-appointed and adequate for a group of 7 adults. The pool was great, but it would have been nice to provide pool towels as they are very bulky and not easy to cram into luggage. The antique bedframes were lovely, but the mattresses were lumpy and uncomfortable. The shower in the master bath was virtually unusable because it is so tiny. Also, the supplies were inadequate. We had to buy extra bath tissue and paper towels and used the last dishwasher pod on check out day. Considering how much we paid, it was rather irritating to not have the house adequately supplied with basics.

We enjoyed our stay at the diplomat house very much! It was clean and very centrally located to lots of points of interest in Savannah. The only drawback for giving this place five stars was the fact that there were a few necessities that were lacking. There was no oven light, only one roll of paper towels, no cookie sheet pans, only one bath towel, washcloth and hand towel per guest. There was only one kitchen towel, no oven mitts no antibacterial hand soap either. I wish that there had been towels if the pool were to have been utilized by us or some laundry detergent to get us started. I did watch all of the videos for what to do when you get to the property and how things work, etc. I was quite confused about which door to access entry as there was no way to get in once parked in the garage. You had to walk around the front of the house and there was an upstairs door and a downstairs door, the downstairs door was sort of hidden unless you walked around the set of stairs.The garage is a mess. There’s an old car with a flimsy fence around it and barely enough room for our rental vehicle to park. We had an SUV and it would not fit all the way in the garage and be able to close it. This is something other guests may find helpful to know prior to their visit. The garage had old refrigerators, old paint, etc. Like I said, we had a lovely time and made do with what we had. These are just a few suggestions that could’ve made this stay a five star experience.

This was a last minute booking and host was very communicative during booking, during stay, and afterwards so we appreciated that. Place was historical old house in Savannah so understand the condition of the house is "historical". Location was fabulous as it was across the street from Forsyth Park and could walk everywhere. Appreciated the two parking spaces for our two vehicles. . The negatives were minor: 1. The weather got cold outside but the heat in the house did not travel to the 2 ground floor bedrooms (it was an icebox in there); Upstair bedrooms and the common areas were nice and toasty, however. 2. The keys only really worked on the front door; the other keys didn't close the garage or the door to the pool so we were always a bit concerned about safety. 3. Found two live roaches on our last night. 4. We were not allowed to leave our luggage in the house prior to check in at 4 pm so we had to lug our baggage around the entire first day. 5.We were 8 people but only had 6 forks and 6 spoons - at least have enough cutlery for the number of beds! Overall, however, had plenty of space to congregate, cook and be together as a family.

Great location,very roomy and loved the history,plenty of personal space. The TV remotes needed batteries, some of the lamps did not work, there were 7 of us and only 5 forks in the kitchen, the ironing board was broken. One bed upstairs had a bad mattress, sunken center. The electrical in the upstairs shower needs attention, the toilet door handle stuck bad, couldn't shut it. Over we enjoyed it.

Project home
I understand this was an older home built 1900s. What I didn’t expect was the amount of unfinished projects that would be going on. For instance the upstairs bathroom had spackling on the wall, not sanded which tells it was a quick fix. The mystery room next to the laundry room was clearly a make shift handy man room with free weights. The door needs to be better covered to not expose the room. It gave an odd vibe. All the return air filters needed replaced or at least cleaned. I am not sure if the vibe was vintage or replace with old cheap I was disappointed overall with the home. I understand if this is a work in progress and need a little cash flow to support restoration, then the price should reflect that. The garage has a vintage car covered with all the homes excess paint and misc storage thrown in the corner with no organization Pictures online need to be updated to reflate true presence. The mgmt company is doing just enough to keep the property turning.

Our family loved the Diplomat House and cannot wait to return! The pool is perfect, as a pool operator I was concerned that it may not be clean but it was immaculate. The house had a couple issues showing its age. It was built in 1852 so of course, there may be a few issues but none that inhibited our experience. All in all, no complaints. We would definitely return. Thank you!

Great location, great historical charm, pool is awesome house needs work.
This house is perfectly located for everything you want to do in Savannah and you feel like a resident when you’re staying there. Access to the park in downtown is great and the pool is certainly a bonus. A toilet was broken when we got there and we couldn’t use it for practically the whole day and many of the chairs and other furniture. Outside was not usable. The hood in the kitchen did not work, which let us to setting off the fire detector one day. The management company did a great job working with us and again overall it’s worth staying there. You just need to be aware of what you’re getting and Enjoy what it offers.
