About this house rental

Offering room for 12 in a dreamlike setting, Spanish Moss Inn delights with old-world touches combined with modern comforts! This five-bedroom home offers a high-end retreat space that pampers the senses with stunning architecture, beautiful décor and a picture-perfect front porch. The home also comes with exclusive access to a private, heated pool located nearby in beautiful Tybee Island! While enjoying the outdoor space of Spanish Moss Inn, you can enjoy views of Bay Street from your own front porch. Glimpses of the Savannah River and Emmet Park are also visible. Spanish Moss Inn is a home with a fascinating history. Originally built in a different location on the corner of Jefferson and Hull in 1808, the home was relocated to its current location at Bay and Price in 1968. When you arrive at the rental for your stay, take a moment to look for the numbers etched into the home's exposed beams to see the placement markers used by architects when reconstructing the home. There's simply no comparison between this home and other Savannah vacation rentals if you're dreaming of spending some time in a Southern estate by the river!

Welcome to Spanish Moss Inn: A Look Inside One of the Most Captivating Savannah Vacation Homes

Take a minute to soak in a large front porch accented by classic touches like black shutters, potted plants and ceiling fans that scatter the breeze. The porch leads you inside to an elegant, oversized foyer that truly belongs in a movie! Next, it's time to step inside one of the most stunning Savannah vacation homes to take in views of a breathtaking living room featuring tall windows, built-in shelving, intricate crown molding and a grand fireplace. Next, the dining room beckons with its elongated dining table for eight, crystal chandelier and grand fireplace.

Bringing things to a more casual level, the home's kitchen is all that you could ever dream of when designing a functional, high-end place to handle meals and snacks. This large kitchen is overflowing with countertops and cabinets. In addition to a beautiful gas stove with stainless-steel hood, you'll enjoy a refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave, toaster and coffee maker. All of your cooking essentials are waiting inside the kitchen. There's also a large walk-in pantry situated just off of the kitchen that features storage, a utility sink and an auxiliary refrigerator.

It's now time to enter what many would consider to be the highlight of the home! Spanish Moss Inn features a beautiful glassed-in sunroom that is fully furnished with a dining table, hutch and extra seating. This portion of the home leads directly to your private courtyard that is peppered with umbrella-topped patio tables. Plan a little cookout any day of the week using your private outdoor grill.

The bedrooms of Spanish Moss Inn are easily the most impressive "suites" found in any Savannah vacation rentals. Every single bedroom in this home features a king-sized bed with access to its own private full-sized bathroom! Every aspect of the home's bedrooms and bathrooms will delight you with the quality and attention to detail you're observing! No expense has been spared when decorating these bedrooms with large, high-end furnishings that provide space for storage and relaxation. The bathrooms feature touches like high-end, marble-topped vanities, beautiful tiles and oversized showers or tubs. In addition to the five full bathrooms accompanying the bedrooms, a half bathroom is located off of the home's main living area. The home also has its own washer-dryer setup.

While this home may have a rich, fascinating history going back two centuries, you can rest assured that it will fit all of your modern tastes in terms of amenities and technology! Guests enjoy air conditioning, Wi-Fi, and flat-panel televisions. Touches like keypad entry, ample outdoor lighting and off-street parking for one vehicle make entering and exiting this rental property a breeze for guests. Prior to your arrival, the home will be thoroughly cleaned and disinfected in anticipation of your stay. Finally, Spanish Moss Inn comes with free access to a resort-style heated pool located at 19 Silver Avenue in Tybee Island.

The location of this house is great for access to shops and restaurants. There are a few things that need some attention in the house, but overall we enjoyed our stay and were able to have a great time!

Location is amazing. History of house is amazing. Was able to see large ships from front porch. Only real negatives are the in room portable AC units and the community pool. Hard to install AC ducts in a historic house and appreciated them as it was hot when we were there. Community pool is a drive to get to and very small. Just pivoted and went to the beach instead once we saw it in person.

Our group of seven women who met MANY years ago but now live in states from Alaska to Florida normally have a difficult time finding a house like this. This home is exceptional because it has: 5 bedrooms, each with a beautiful king bed and a bathroom, a garage to save hassles of parking, a sun room and backyard terrace, a super front porch from which to observe historic Savannah, a responsive host team, and best of all, AN EXCELLENT LOCATION!!!

The location was great and I loved the king beds. Outdoor setup was also really nice along with plenty of space. The upstairs bedroom was warm even with the AC. Getting in was very easy and the check out process was very quick with minimal lift (no stripping beds, loading washing machine, garbage bin effort, etc.). It was a bit musty upon arrival but I think it is just the nature of the old house. Overall it is a great spot to stay if you are looking to explore Savannah with a group of people.

For being the age that the house is, it was in pretty good condition. Everyone that stayed in the house during our vacation loved the home and looked up some of the history on it since it was actually moved from another location in Savannah. We plan to rent the house again in the future.
