About this property

Private Pool | 5*Clean | Flex Cancelation

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

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.

Savannah Family Trip

This beautiful house was in the historic district of Savannah. The house and private pool lived up to the pictures and description of the property. The owners wete in contact with us and were easy to contact. The location is great and within walking distance of restaurants and Savannah attractions. I highly recommend this amazing house to stay in when in Savannah!

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!

Fantastic Location

The house was exactly as described and the pictures were very accurate. It does need some updating, as it's a historical property, but that's to be expected. The location was fantastic - right across the street from the park and a block away from a great coffee shop, grocery store, brewery and restaurants. We would definitely rent this house again! The management company was great to work with, and the pool access on Tybee Island was a great bonus!

So much history

I really wish we could have been given information on the history of the house, you could tell that many stories had happened there. There was so much character in the building. We loved walking to the park, every evening after we were done sightseeing. It was a great location. The only problem we had was there were no trash bags.

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.

Brandy turned 50!

We had a great time in Savannah! The house was older and historical just the vibe we were wanting. The only concern we had was that the keys only work on the front door and you have to park in the back of the property. The lock box is old and could use an upgrade. Minor changes that could really make a difference.

Great location, fabulous pool, terrific layout for our family but house needs TLC.

Overall, we had a good time. The location was near places we wanted to visit. We appreciated having enough seating at the dining table and living room for everyone. We contacted Southern Belle Vacation Rentals about some issues. A cleaning issue was quickly resolved. Water closet had no light. The electrician SBVR sent the next day said that the fan/light had electrical issues and had to submit for approval to be fixed. He put 2 battery puck lights that were the only light source for the week. He also looked at the dishwasher because the dishes in the cupboards weren't clean nor the ones we ran through. There was nothing he could do because it was too old. He requested a replacement for approval. The kitchen was lacking. Needed a lighter to light the stove burners. Limited flatware, 1 stemmed wine glass and 3 stemless. No potholders. Bathrooms and kitchen needed a deep clean. The pool was great and the best feature! Plenty of outdoor seating but some cushions were dirty and/or torn with stuffing coming out. Some chairs had ragged, rusted steel on legs. One Adirondack chair was broken. The ensuite Mbath shower pan was cracked and broken and there was standing water in the corner all week. The paint on the wood toilet seat was worn off and looked gross. Too many other things to list.

Beautiful Home w/Potential; Needs Work; Pool Not Clean

This house has so much potential. As house flippers we’d love to get our hands on it. It has some fun features like the beautiful bedrooms and the history of the house. Some of the antique books were cool to look at. However we probably would not stay here again for a few reasons. The master bedroom cable wasn’t working. They offered to put a work order in but who wants to be concerned about either waiting around for the cable company or securing your belongings while they send a representative to be there with the cable company. We noticed a bunch of dirt in the pool. Called about it on Wednesday and they told us they’d contact the pool company but that they do service the pool on Thursdays. We were there until Sunday morning and they still never came. The kitchen needs some major help. While they had most of the essentials for cooking its a terrible layout and the cabinets are old and in bad shape. One of the drawers make a sound like nails on a chalk board when you open it. You could hear it throughout the whole house. Another odd thing we found was there are three rooms in the house that are locked. Owners suites. Lights were left on 24/7 in those rooms. There was also a broken article of furniture in almost every closet in the house. Master bath faucet was so hard to turn on and off all the way. Like I said, house needs work.

The electrical in the upstairs shower needs attention, the toilet door handle stuck bad, couldn't shut it. Over we enjoyed it.

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.

Fine property. Below average stay & service

The house was plenty nice and clean upon arrival. We unfortunately almost immediately ran into issues with electricity and a wet mattress that the host was unable to explain. While they did make an effort to help, all they really did was bring over linens and there was a serious language barrier with the maintenance staff that led to additional frustration with our stay. Overall the stay was passable but will likely look for other options in the future.
