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.

The Diplomat House

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.

The First Saturday on the River festivals take place every month on the first Saturday and major holidays such as Christmas and the 4th of July have a variety of festivals happening. Just ask the historic Savannah vacation experts at Southern Belle and make your plans ahead of time.

Don't waste time looking at all the Savannah vacation rentals available or you won't get the rest of your vacation planned. Just call Southern Belle and we can direct you to the best downtown Savannah rentals and put that part of your trip in the books.

Renting homes from Southern Belle is painless and professional. We take credit cards and require a $500.00 deposit to confirm the booking which is applied towards the remaining balance. For example, if your total is $1,500, we will take a $500 deposit and your remaining balance will be $1000. Thirty days prior to your arrival our booking software will charge the balance automatically. We also sell Traveler's Insurance which covers medical cancellations.

If you have any questions, please feel free to give us a call. Thanks so much for looking.

Great Location in Historic District

The Diplomat House was located very close to beautiful Forsyth Park, and the DOT stop (free trolley transportation to major areas of interest) was just a few minutes away. Very convenient! The house was very spacious, with mostly period furniture, and with good view of swimming pool and lovely courtyard in back. Very charming! There was parking in driveway at front and in garage at back of house. Large kitchen, with gas range (never used one before so I had to get used to it). Good TV’s (Roku—lots of channels). There were seven of us and we enjoyed our stay.

great location, perfect house. The house was spacious enough for us to enjoy our time together without being on top of each other. It was centrally located for a either a nice walk or quick drive to anywhere. Would recommend this location to family and friends.

We had a family gathering in celebration of my grandmother's 102nd birthday. The accommodations at the Diplomat House allowed for myself and my fiancé, my father, my uncle, and my cousin to all have adequate space to sleep. The size of the house also allowed us to come together and enjoy meals and each other's company. Parking was seamless and the location was perfect. We were able to walk almost everywhere we wanted to go. The house was clean, beds were comfortable, and we were provided everything we needed to enjoy our stay. I really enjoyed how responsive the property management company was. They provided all necessary information and checked on us once we arrived to make sure we had everything we needed. Highly recommend!

The Diplomat House was perfect for our family vacation. The location was awesome and the house provides tons of space for our group of 7. We absolutely loved the private pool area to hang out especially during the evenings! We will be back.

This is a great house for a large crowd. Super close to the free DOT trolleys that take you into the heart of Savannah downtown. The grocery store was walkable and a wonderful coffee shop was just a block away. My kids played soccer in the park everyday, and were joined by locals nearly every time. The pool was great to relax in at the end of a busy day for the kids, though a little cold. The kitchen could use a little more stock (wine glasses to be specific, and plastic to have on the pool deck) as well as plates and the usual meal items.

We were in town for my son's wedding at The Mackey House and this was a perfect place for all of us to get ready and hang out in the days before the wedding. Best location to walk to everything. We loved being so close to Forsyth Park and enjoyed the Farmer's Market in the park. We had plenty of space and enjoyed learning about the history of the house. Definitely would stay here again.

It was wonderful to get up every morning and be just steps away from Forsyth Park. The entire area is so historic it’s like taking a step back in time. With the weather being quite humid this time of year, the pool was a blessing to cool down in. Everything worked in the home and the air conditioner kept the house very comfortable.

We had a great stay. This would definitely be the place we rent again if coming back to Savannah and we will tell others about it. A couple of things that need to be addressed would be that we were told by your staff that the trolley stop was at the Mansion but it has been moved to the hospital that we passed when walking to the Mansion so had to go back and wait for another and to please inform guests about the street sweeper rules for parking.

There was confusion about parking when we arrived at the property. It wasn't a big deal since there was plenty of on-street parking (so I never contacted the office). However, we had concerns about using the driveway out front because the car would have been blocking the sidewalk (ticketed offense where we are from). You may want to clarify that this isn't an issue in Savannah to your guests. Secondly, we never used the garage for parking because I couldn't find a key to open the door from the pool area. We had two sets of keys and it seemed as if only 1 key worked (for the front door). My only actual complaint is that I had to return the keys to the black mail box on Tattnall Street. A very minor complaint, but I watched the lock box videos before arriving, and as instructed, so I don't understand the point of those videos if I wasn't going to actually leave the keys in the lock box. Overall, we had a nice stay. There was plenty of room for our group. And, as a suggestion, it may be time to change the mattresses at the Diplomat House. 3 of 4 beds were uncomfortable. The biggest complaint was the upstairs bedroom- the bed sunk in the middle and was really uncomfortable for 2 people to sleep in. Otherwise, thanks for a great stay in Savannah!

This house allowed us to feel part of the historic community in Savannah. It felt warm and inviting yet spacious. The outdoor areas allowed us to sit in shade or sun, and enjoy the outdoors (Dad is unable to do much walking and so this enabled him to be outside and enjoy the view).

There were no clear parking instructions. It would have been nice if we knew that we couldnt park on the street on Fri evening from 10pm to 1am . ( curb cleaning) . There is no sign to that effect in front of the house. This would have avoided a $15 ticket that we received on our first night. There were no instructions as to when trash day was and if we were to put the trash cans on the curb ( or not) . Also there were trash cans on the property both on the right and left side of the house . So we didnt know which one was ours.We didnt know if we should recycle of not. It looked like one of the trash bins was for recycling. The TV remotes were impossible to figure out. Consequently we could not use the TV's in the bedrooms. They monitors said "no signal".
