About the host
Hosted by Mint Julep Vacation Rentals
Mint Julep Vacation Rentals is a small, family-owned business rooted right here in Savannah. We focus exclusively on properties in Savannah and Tybee Island because this is our home, not just a market. We’ve each lived in Savannah for over 20 years and still live here today—working, playing, and spending our time downtown—so sharing this city comes naturally to us. We decided to rent our first home as a vacation rental because we wanted guests to experience Downtown Savannah the same way we do. When you stay with us, you’re not supporting distant corporate investors—you’re supporting a local family that truly cares about the homes we manage and the guests we welcome, offering personal service and genuine coastal Southern hospitality.
What makes this property unique
Our home is thoughtfully decorated to be comfortable and welcoming for you and your family or friends. The living space is designed for relaxing and spending time together, whether that means gathering to chat or stretching out to watch a movie. We want you to truly unwind while you’re here—kick back, get cozy, and make yourself at home.
