Sandfly home with cottage and pool, close to downtown and Tybee
This home is in the Sandfly area, we love the area. There are great restaurants within a half mile down the street. The historic district is 15 minutes away, the airport is 30 minutes and Tybee Island beach is 30 minutes. The house has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms with a chefs kitchen and the kitchen table seats 8 with additional seating at the counter. The cottage house has an additional bedroom with 2 queen beds and it’s own bathroom and sliding glass door to a patio. The backyard is huge with your own private pool (3' shallow end 8' deep end) lined with palm trees. The pool is not heated and is used most late March through September. You will have a big front porch with rocking chairs and a porch swing shaded by a large oak tree draped in Spanish moss in the front yard. The property is equipped with high speed internet. Each bedroom has a 50” smart TV with 130 channels of cable. The living room has a 55” inch smart TV. This is residential neighborhood and we do not allow parties and please ask that you keep the outdoor noise down from 10pm-630am. There is a shooting range close enough that you can hear it during business hours. It honestly has never bothered us.

Just spent one week at Sandfly Cottage and had a wonderful time! We had a girls trip and the house was perfect for us. Plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms and all of the beds were very comfortable. Lots of towels in bathrooms and also beach towels for by the pool. Outdoor space was very nice and pool was wonderful. Downtown Savannah was a 15 minute Uber ride. Great location and lots of good restaurants within walking distance just down the road. Highly recommend and would stay here again for sure.
Was a wonderful home with a dream come true backyard that was perfect for a weekend trip with the girls. The pool is perfect and the deck is super spacious. Pleasantly surprised by how comfy the beds were. I normally have a hard time sleeping places that are not my bed but I fell asleep like a baby. There’s a Kroger down the street that delivered groceries and fun bars are just a 20 minute Uber.
House was large. I would have to say it needs a deep cleaning. The yard and around pool and out front and area to walk thru bushes really need to be trimmed and all the weeds growing up!
There was beer cans and other empty bottles outside the property out back when we arrived. The trash had not been emptied from the week before and I do not even want to say what that was like!!
It's a great place and location just needs to be checked more often I feel before a check in like the pool and yard that had not been taken care of and I had to contact host, I know it has rained a lot but I had my yard and pool at my house ready for them to use and enjoy.
The host did reply and did his best to resolve matters.
Our family had a wonderful time in Savannah. Andrew was a great host and the house was very nice and the pool was awesome. I would highly recommend this property if you are planning a stay in Savannah. Great location, very nice neighborhood and close to everything. Thanks!
The house was the perfect distance from Savannah & the family we were visiting. The house was roomy, comfortable, and comfortably slept 7 adults. Restaurants & grocery store nearby. Wish we could have stayed longer
I rented Andy's place in Savannah for a girl's weekend and it was the perfect location for the 9 of us. The backyard is stunning and a perfect spot to lay by the pool. We had plenty of beds and space to get ready, and take photos. The house was about a 15-20 minute ride to River St in Savannah, which was not bad but since we came from another state and didn't have our own car, it did require a lot of Ubers.
Andy was very responsive, and even allowed us a late check-out when our plans for the final day changed because of flight issues.
I recently stayed at this house for a lowkey Savannah bachelorette with a large group (11 people). The house is just a 15-20 minute drive to downtown Savannah to go to restaurants, bars, and explore the city. Andrew was super helpful and replied within just an hour or two if we had questions. When we got to the house, the pool was green, and Andrew sent the pool cleaning company that day to fix the chemical balance. The lighting was a little dark in the house, so you may want to bring a ring light for pics. Also definitely recommend buying garbage bags and extra TP & paper towels, especially with a large group of people. Also bug spray, but that’s just Savannah in August lol. Our group brought pool floats and loved the pool, we had plenty of room for everyone and the house felt clean and comfortable. There were also bath and beach towels at the house, and washing machines - super helpful! Would recommend & would stay again!
We enjoyed our stay immensely! Well stocked with convenience items. Great pool and deck space in back, and a porch swing in front. Cottage space a real bonus!
The neighborhood was amazing and just a short drive away were great stores and restaurants. The house is gorgeous and had all the necessary amenities. I only communicated with one of the owners (Andy) and he was very responsive and addressed any issues in real time and we really appreciated that. I would recommend this property and the drive to Savannah isn't far at all, as you're mostly using major roads or highways.
This home was perfect for our group celebrating our friends bachelorette. Andrew was so helpful and quick to respond! The location was super easy to get to downtown Savannah, and we walked in the mornings to the local coffee shop and cute farmers market in the area. I hope to go back to Savannah with a group soon so I can stay here again! 10/10 experience :)
This house was great for our family of 10–6 adults, 3 teenagers,and one 10 year old. The pool is a saltwater pool (great) and a great deck from kitchen to pool . 4 total bedrooms and romm in 2 of them for an air mattress. Great kitchen and bar area and adjoining dining room
Would highly recommend .
Beautiful Home and Great Location!
This house had all the essentials that anyone might need.
Great deck and pool area!
The host Andrew was very accommodating and communicated swiftly with any of our needs or requests!
I highly recommend for a family or friend gathering!
This property matched the description perfectly. It's in a perfect spot in a more quiet area so we could take a day and go to downtown Savannah and then Tybee Island another day. The Wormsloe Historic site is literally around the corner too! A few really great restaurants and shopping right down the road was super convenient on days we just wanted take out. This property was perfect for my husband and I and 4 children. The pool was an absolute hit and the fact that there were some pool toys was an added bonus. The host was super friendly and helpful and quick to respond when we had any issues. He also gave me great recommendations for things to do in the area! Hopefully we can come back one day!
Overall the place was great. The house looked just like the pictures advertised. Need to provide a mop for future guest and warn people about how deep the pool dips down.
This is a perfect family vacation spot! Convenient to Savannah, Tybee, great restaurants, And historical sites. The pool was amazing and made vacationing with the kids so much fun!
The communication from the owners was top notch. They answered every question or concern we had in less than a 10 minutes and were very accommodating .
Thank you so much!
Andrew was a great host! He was able to accommodate a early check-in for us. The property is in a great location close to many restaurants, stores, beach and river street. The pool was a great also!
Overall the stay at the property was good. The space accommodated our needs. The additional space of the cottage was great for the teenagers to have their own space. Unfortunately we did have to do some light cleaning once we got there to feel comfortable. The outdoor area needed a little TLC. The owners were very accommodating and responsive. Even with the cleanliness issues, I would definitely recommend the property and stay again.
This home was exactly what we were expecting and we were very happy with our choice to stay here!
