Historic Home on Jones w/ Modern Updates and Great Backyard by Lucky Savannah

This three bedroom, two-and-a-half bath home is located on historic Jones Street, named America’s Prettiest Street by Southern Living Magazine. Originally two smaller cottages converted into one home, Savannah Selfies can sleep up to 10 Lucky guests, and is perfect for family gatherings or a girls weekend!

You’ll enter into a small foyer which is separated from the L shaped living area by a double sided, decorative fireplace. The living area features two separate seating areas, each with pops of color, and original hardwood floors. The spacious kitchen and dining area have both a large dining table and breakfast bar. The kitchen has direct access to the private backyard, where you’ll find a deck with a cozy seating area, a dining table and a grill.

Two of the three bedrooms are on the ground floor. The primary bedroom has a King sized bed, TV, writing desk, and en suite bath with double sinks and access to the backyard. The second bedroom is a cozy space with a comfortable Queen bed. The stunning staircase to the second floor adds a modern flare to the home. The upstairs loft has two separate spaces, one with a day bed and trundle, the other with two twin beds and an attached half bath.

Savannah Selfies is ideally located in walking distance to shops, restaurants and other area attractions. Simply stroll down beautiful Jones Street to Clary’s Cafe, featured in Midnight In the Garden of Good and Evil, and a favorite of locals and visitors alike. A few blocks away at the corner of Bull Street and Liberty, you’ll find local shops featuring everything from handmade handbags and leather goods at Satchel, to Celtic crosses at Saints & Shamrocks.

Great location!

Overall we enjoyed our stay. Great location! The only complaint was the backyard/deck. Based on the website pics it was one of the biggest draws of the home. Shows multiple couches/patio seating. But instead it was an old table with 5 worn out chairs.

Great Sisters' Weekend

House was perfect size for 7 of us. It was clean and comfortable. Furniture advertised on the back porch is not correct but there was a table and some chairs (no couches). Quiet, safe neighbor and great walkability to most everything you want to see, even the river if you don't mind a walk.

Spacious and great location

This was the perfect spot for our friends reunion in late May. The neighborhood is gorgeous and it's a long walk/short car ride from some really nice spots in Savannah. Most of the beds were comfortable with the exception of a couple of the twins in the loft. The house was well air conditioned and there is a separate temperature control on each floor. The backyard area was peaceful for drinking coffee in the morning before the heat made being inside more relaxing.

Very Disappointed

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house is in historic Savannah - beautiful location. Unfortunately, this house needs some TLC. The paint is chipping and falling off, there were dead bugs in the kitchen, the refrigerator smelled like dead fish and the fan in 1 bathroom sounded like a jet taking off. Yes, we did let the management company know and they did nothing. This could be a lovely home if the owner put some TLC in it. We suggest you do not stay here.

Spacious, comfortable and good location. A few minor quirks.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall this is a very spacious and comfortable nightly rental with 4 sleeping spaces (not including living room). NOTE that the upstairs only has twin beds or daybeds so if you have adults, may not be the best. Upstairs bathroom is a full bath, but the shower really isn't even tall enough to stand up in due to the dormer and need to sit to look in the mirror unless you are on the short side. Kitchen is spacious but cabinetry and drawers are old and don't open right (hits the stove). kitchen could have a few more amenities. I don't know why nightly rentals dont have keurig machines. I would be happy to bring along k-cups when I travel if they did. Didn't give any sugar or creamer although provided 1 packet of coffee. No extra trash bags in the house. Plenty of towels provided. Downstairs bathrooms very nice - although again cabinetry in master suite was older - not that we were using drawers (just saying). Only 3 steps getting into house if you have any mobility issues (we had a wheelchair and this was easier than many other rentals in Savannah.). Affordable for so many sleeping spaces. EAsy to walk to many coffee shops and to Liberty or Oglethorpe. Street parking is free here. Would recommend.

Good for a Group

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Savannah Selfies is large and good for a group and for entertaining. The house was clean and had the basic amenities. The location is great and the neighborhood is quiet. Parking was always available. The historic house is 160 years old and could use some upkeep. The photos in the listing are old. The living space is laid out differently, but that isn’t an issue. The backyard patio only has one table with 5 chairs. No sofa or swing. We had to do a lot of cleaning to be able to use the grill. The upstairs areas don’t have any of the decorative touches that the photos show. The carpet could use to be replaced. The downstairs bathrooms could use a few rugs, especially the en-suite as the tile is old looking. That’s being said, everything was clean and we would rent this place again for all of the other positives.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Lovely house on beautiful street. We had everything we needed. Home was spacious for 7 of us with plenty of bathrooms. This is a little further out so was nice that we had rented a car and did end up driving to the river on second day. About an 25 min walk. Able to walk to plenty of places for breakfast and to see the city.

Big House Needs TLC

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Wedding weekend. Pics must be old because this house has a LOT of wood rot on the exterior. Makes you wonder what's going on where you CAN'T see it. Good: Place was huge and accommodated our needs. Interior layout perfect for entertaining. Location was great, parking in the front or the back was plentiful. BAD: Pics show outdoor furniture and a swing which was part of our decision and there was only a table and some broken chairs. Water pressure in the main bathroom and kitchen sink is horrible. Only 1 small TV. Upstairs shower-shower head is so low, it's only for kids. Kitchen light has a short in the electrical switch and we were afraid the house would catch on fire on the last night. No ice maker in fridge and 1 1/2 trays to make ice.

Door locks didn't work, toilet flush was broken, backyard patio & grill outside was not clean at all. But when we called the management company they fixed door locks & bathroom issues. Didn't like the overall condition of the house. We were not aware we have to do roadside parking. Will not recommend.

We had a wonderful time! The neighborhood is quite and loved the area. The front bedroom the light kept turning on in the middle of the night. My daughter was so excited that we had a ghost that was afraid of the dark. On our last night she left water and cookies for them. Light was still on in the morning. Maybe next time we will figure out how to calm our ghost. Your staff was excellent!!!!! Kept our bags while we ran around Savanah and explored. Even made some fun suggestions on places to go and eat. Highly professional group and would defiantly use again!

Great historic house

We spent a long weekend at the property for an overdue boys trip. The house fit 6 of us easily. The backyard was great (a little buggy so don’t forget the bug spray) so we spent a lot of time out there playing games. Would recommend!
