Wilmington Island Retreat: Gorgeous! New! Close to Downtown & Beach

Situated on idyllic Wilmington Island just minutes from Downtown Savannah or Tybee Island. This part of Savannah was historically a tourism destination. Charter fishing, restaurants, local shops etc make Wilmington Island a perfect landing spot for your Savannah/Tybee vacation. Get the best of both worlds with a quiet neighborhood atmosphere just steps from multiple dining and shopping spots. Park in the 2-car garage or private driveway. Walk to Lilli's, Basil's, Molly Maguire's, Cancun, Rio Bravo, or several fast-food spots. 2 major supermarkets are within a mile. Tybee Island is 10 miles away by car. The Historic District (Downtown) Savannah is 10 miles away.

*Additional $100 Pet Fee must be paid after booking if you bring a dog as optional fees are not shown at checkout on VRBO.

​​​​​​​Guests please note: We are an "integrated partner" with VRBO/Expedia/HomeAway. Your credit card will show the rent/tax/cleaning portion of your charges under our company name because Integrated Partners are required to be the Merchant Of Record per VRBO terms of service. Only your "service fee" charged by VRBO will show on your credit card statement as a charge from that company and rest shows separately as a charge from our local Savannah GA company. Please be sure anyone who oversees your credit card statement is aware of this to avoid any confusion. If you book on VRBO you will have already agreed to our basic rules and terms (no smoking, capacity limit, check in/out times, refund policy etc) on the VRBO checkout page. You will then need to digitally sign a rental agreement with our company after booking through VRBO. Nothing in our company rental agreement contradicts the posted terms on VRBO. If you have questions about how integrated software partners are trusted and approved by VRBO and all Expedia Group websites feel free to call them to inquire.

Weekend Getaway

Miscommunication with rental company and they were rude and refused to take any responsibility. Hall tub was cracked and mushy like you could push through it. Then started leaking into half bath downstairs. Called to report and they did get someone out there but was told that a prior rental had cracked it and they patched it? We weren’t advised of this - the home only has 2 full bathrooms for 12 person capacity as it is and then we were down to 1 bathroom for a day.

Perfect stay for family event in Savanna

We traveled with our family of 6 adults, 6 children, and 2 service dogs to Savannah for my youngest son's wedding and this place was perfect for all of us! It was clean, spacious, and plenty of supplies for family breakfast before heading out to various wedding functions. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Clean

Great vacation getaway with family

We had 10 adults and 1 toddler and didn’t feel like we were top of each other. The house was beautifully built, clean and decorated. We felt at home away from home. There were no issues with the house. It’s in a great location and not far from downtown.

Really wonderful property

Great location- plenty of shops, restaurants, and things to do within walking distance of the house. Right in between downtown Savannah and Tybee Island. Inside- it was super clean and had everything we could have possibly needed for the trip. All the beds were comfortable and everyone in our party of 7 said they slept wonderfully. It was also nice to actually get to park in the garage. Outside- beautiful backyard, well maintained, perfect for the dogs and for hanging out. Tip for your stay: the shower nobs are a little confusing. If you can't find the hot water, make sure the handle is between 10 and 12 if you were looking at a clock.

Family Vacation

The house was clean, large enough to accommodate entire family. I loved the loft room. The kids were able to run free and play. My only suggestion is baby gates. We went out and bought 3 to accommodate our stay.

Beach blast

The house was amazing. There was plenty of room for everyone. The house is a ten minute walk to the grocery store and the liquor store(very important). The best part is there is a walking trail across the street that leads directly to the Savannah Country Club. We can't wait to come back here next year!

Great Vacation Spot

This house was beautiful & the owner thought of everything. The kids had the 3rd floor all to themselves. It had 2 twin, 2 fulls which one had another twin trundle bed. The kitchen was stocked with all the appliances you would need from an air fryer to mini waffle maker. The location was great. We were 20 mins from Tybee beach & 17 mins from River Street.
