Very clean and beautifully decorated apartment! Location was a little out of the nicer touristy section. Some shady characters out front so we drove rather walked downtown.

Very cozy and homey right as you walk in. And the location is very close to all the local Savannah restaurants and attractions.

Overall a very good experience. Stayed for two weeks and felt right at home. Great area and well stocked for longer stays. Hosts were very responsive until I had an issue with bees getting into the apartment. The good outweighs the bad though.

My husband and I stayed at Brandon & Chase’s over 4th of July weekend to celebrate his birthday. From the moment I walked in, I could not believe how perfect everything was! Spotless, beautifully furnished, and well equipped. They even left a small bag of goodies and water for us. Parking was not an issue at all as we parked right out front. We could pretty much walk to wherever we wanted. Since it was my husband’s birthday, they even gave me recommendations for local bakeries for a cake. Lulus Chocolate Bar for the win! They provided bikes if you chose to use them. The bed was so comfortable and the shower had the best water pressure. I can’t say enough great things about this Airbnb. Communication was quick and easy. Highly recommend them! We do plan to stay again in the near future. Thank you Brandon and Chase for a fantastic weekend!!

Great place. Very clean and close to eating and shopping. Enjoyed the little extras like coffee supplies, candy and welcome bag. Walkable for some, however, we drove and it’s very close to the river walk and historic area. Would definitely stay again.

Wonder place to stay! It was very easy to find, parking safe simple, the neighborhood was quiet, and the bed was soft and comfortable. Everything was well taken care of and the hosts provided a wonderful gift basket and all the amenities we could as for. Our favorite part was the peaceful balcony and how nice the neighborhood was to walk around in. We would highly recommend for anyone visiting this awesome city!

My wife and I stayed at the Whale Loft for a much-needed Savannah getaway while celebrating a few special milestones. And after a busy season of life, it was the perfect place to relax and recharge. The unit was comfortable, spacious, and a great value for two people. The bed had the softest sheets and comforter we’ve ever slept in. The bathroom was clean, the kitchen had everything we needed, we could do laundry, and the little balcony was a great spot for morning coffee and Bible reading. The living room was also nice for winding down after a long day exploring the city. The location was good—about an 8-10 minute walk to Forsyth Park and roughly 25 minutes to the Historic District/River Street. We loved walking there in the morning/during the day and took a quick Uber ride back if it was getting too late into the night. The hosts were responsive, accommodated an early check-in for a small fee, and were very nice. We had a wonderful experience and would stay here again!

Brandon & Chase were wonderful to communicate with, responses were quite immediate, and their company provided a lovely and personalized hospitality welcome gift which we greatly appreciated. We loved the decor and space so much. I've already recommended Savannah to family and friends as well as this perfect stay. The artists' work, two very cute theme-of-the-loft dishes, that were in The Whale Loft as decoration and available to bring home are now decorating two of our walls as a reminder of our perfect first visit to Historic Savannah! We absolutely look forward to visiting again and hopefully staying at The Whale Loft again! It was a peaceful space and neighborhood, and even interactively fun, and an easy walk downtown. Thank you for everything.

My friend and I had a great 3 day stay here to explore Savannah. The space was roomy and looked like the pictures. As far as amenities, it had everything we needed. We appreciated the gift bag of snacks as well! We really enjoyed the location of this Airbnb because it was outside of the tourist zone but still walkable to the Historic District and also to the Starland neighborhood where we spent a lot of our time. I would definitely stay here again!
