Whether you want to explore Downtown Savannah’s historic sights, wander through the charming squares, dine along the beautiful riverfront, or take a day trip to the sandy shores of Tybee Island, there is no question that Savannah's Historic District is an excellent "home base" for your trip to Savannah, GA.
However, if you're getting ready to book your trip to Savannah and are still torn between staying in one of the hotels in Downtown Savannah or a spacious vacation rental home in the Savannah Historic District... let us convince you why a short-term rental is the best choice!
We might be a little biased, but we think that staying in a vacation rental is the best way to experience Savannah’s unique charm and character during your vacation. Discover why vacation rentals in Savannah are a smart choice for travelers seeking extra space, privacy, amenities, and more!
If everyone in your group wants room to spread out and relax after a long day of sightseeing and exploring during a trip to Savannah — a vacation rental is a much better option than a hotel.
Instead of having to split up into different rooms or cramming into one tiny hotel room (and fighting over who gets to use the shower next…), everyone in your family can have their own bedroom, bathroom, and personal space while still getting to stay together under the same roof.
Unlike hotels that require you to share space with hundreds (if not thousands!) of guests, vacation rentals are just as private as your own home. You won't have to worry about loud footsteps upstairs keeping you up late at night or disruptive hallway noises waking you up early in the morning. On the flip side, if you’re traveling with noisy children or pets, you won’t have to worry about disturbing other hotel guests either.
Additionally, when you stay in a vacation rental, all the amenities are yours to enjoy (and yours alone!). Instead of sharing the resort swimming pool and hot tub with strangers, they are yours to enjoy!
Generally speaking, a vacation rental is more affordable than a hotel, especially when traveling with a large group that requires multiple hotel rooms. However, the "affordability" of a vacation rental isn't necessarily all in the sticker price — you’ll save lots of money on other things too!
Though a short-term rental might sometimes cost about the same as a hotel, you'll save money on the overall cost of the trip by being able to cook meals in a kitchen instead of eating out, sipping a glass of wine on the front porch instead of heading out for drinks at a rooftop bar, and spending the afternoons lounging by the backyard pool instead of paying for an expensive activity to keep the kids entertained.
Savannah is known for its beautiful architecture and charming neighborhoods, so staying in a historic home is a great way to immerse yourself in this unique cultural aspect of Savannah, GA.
Additionally, many short-term rentals in Savannah offer special touches to make your stay especially memorable, like regional artwork hanging on the walls, a bag of beans waiting by the coffee pot from the neighborhood coffee shop, and a book of local recommendations for things to do in Savannah. For this reason, hotels will never be able to offer the same intimate, local experience as a vacation rental!
Even though Savannah, Georgia, is known for its authentic southern cuisine and fantastic restaurants, like The Olde Pink House and Collins Quarter — sometimes, it's nice to enjoy a home-cooked meal instead of eating out for breakfast, lunch, and dinner (and bonus... eating "in" is a lot cheaper, too!).
In addition to a kitchen, most vacation rentals have a laundry room with a washing machine and dryer. This makes it easy to treat stains and do a few quick loads of laundry throughout the trip without relying on the hotel's laundry service.
All parents know that traveling with kids can be challenging... especially if you have younger children who require a lot of space to play (and things to bring!).
That's why Savannah vacation rentals are a great alternative to hotels for larger families. They give parents and kids of all ages space to spread out with a full-sized living room, multiple bedrooms, and even a backyard. Staying in a "home away from home" provides kids with a sense of familiarity, which can reduce stress while traveling to Savannah... for them and you!
Can't imagine leaving your furry friend at home during vacation to Savannah, or want to save money on a pet sitter or boarding costs? No problem! Savannah is a dog-friendly city, so you’ll find plenty of things to do with your pooch.
While finding pet-friendly Savannah hotels can be a challenge, it's not nearly as difficult to find pet-friendly vacation rentals. If you bring a four-legged friend to Savannah, most vacation rentals only charge a small one-time fee or security deposit. A vacation rental also provides more space for your dog to run and play than a small, cramped hotel room.
