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!
