Delightful space right in the heart of things. Perfect for our long weekend in town for a show at Enmarket Arena. Description as a garden studio implies a garden that was not there but we didn’t miss it and enjoyed our stay immensely.

Response from VrboOwner on 29 April 2026
Thank you for your feedback and for staying with us. We’d like to clarify that in Savannah, the term “garden” or “garden level” refers to the ground-floor level of a townhome rather than an outdoor garden space. The “studio” refers to the layout of the unit as a single open living space. We understand that terminology can vary by location, and we’re sorry for any confusion this may have caused. We always aim to accurately represent the space and are happy to answer any questions prior to booking. We appreciate your stay and your feedback.

Beautiful studio with a few nice restaurants within a block or two and a short walk away from the main shopping street with many other dining options. Having a dedicated parking spot available for a nominal extra fee made me stay here, but there's so many more reasons, including the wine and upscale "Provisions" shop right next door. Be advised, there's no stove or microwave - but I'd there were I'd never leave!Honestly, I could live in Maria's Garden Studio. You'll love it.

A Gem in Savannah

This VRBO is in an incredible location - an easy walk so close to restaurants and coffee shops and downtown venues. The space itself is absolutely gorgeous with so many thoughtful touches, including a sound machine and a water filter and a lovingly curated selection of books. Plus, room darkening shades which allowed me to sleep in - this cozy place was the ultimate retreat!

Lovely Place

Such a wonderful place to stay in Savannah! Perfect walking distance to so many cool spots, and nestled in a safe community. Maria was a great host and made sure we had all of the information we needed for our stay. My only concern is that it wasn’t made clear in the property description that we would have to pay for parking, as it does say parking is included in the amenities. Otherwise, no complaints. awesome place and amazing host to book with!

About the host

Hosted by Maria Gallo

Host profile image
I adore exploring this city on foot. You can find me regularly at the local yoga studios, embracing the peace they offer. When navigating the bustling downtown, I prefer the simplicity and charm of bicycling—it's the easiest way to get around amidst the busy streets.

Why they chose this property

I cherish our location, nestled just a block from the vibrant city center (Bull Street.) This short distance offers a wonderful blend of accessibility and peacefulness. Having lived here on four separate occasions, I can confidently say it's my favorite spot in downtown. This area exudes a soothing, secure atmosphere, making it the heart of tranquility in town.

What makes this property unique

My property holds a unique charm, a hidden gem in Savannah. Its location exudes a certain mystique, drawing you in. Once inside, you'll be captivated by the seamless blend of old-world elegance and modern comforts. The space is generously proportioned, beautifully crafted, and truly one-of-a-kind.
