The 15 Most Romantic Honeymoon Hotels in Savannah, Georgia

Ah, Savannah. With its stately Southern mansions, picturesque garden squares, gorgeous live oaks with hanging Spanish moss, and thriving arts and music scene, the Hostess City of the South—and oldest city in the state of Georgia—offers both romance and excitement for honeymooners around every turn. 

“In Savannah, there are lots of little nooks and crannies where you can spoil yourself and celebrate being newlyweds,” says travel consultant Amina Dearmon. “Southern hospitality is also fully ingrained in folks there, and that translates to honeymooners getting a very immersive and authentic experience.”

Add in cute shops, delicious restaurants, and the ability to carry a cocktail as you stroll the Historic District (thank you, open container laws!), and it’s no wonder the town—a two-hour flight from New York and four-hour drive from Atlanta—is such a popular destination. And, with a relatively recent hotel renaissance, there are now more options than ever when it comes to selecting a stylish place to stay.

Average Cost of a Savannah Honeymoon 

As with any trip, a Savannah honeymoon will vary greatly in cost depending on duration, hotel and restaurant selection, and the activities you choose. For her clients, Dearmon recommends budgeting around $500 per night for accommodations if they’re looking for a well-appointed hotel in a central location (that estimate jumps to $750 to $1,000 per night for a suite). Private tours—a wonderful way to learn about the architecture or ghostly history of the town—run $200 to $300 per person, but rates can go down to $50 per person if you go with a group option. For meals at buzzy restaurants like Husk and The Grey, expect to spend around $30 to $40 per entrée.  

Best Time to Visit Savannah

Savannah is truly a four-season city, but, for Dearmon, the best time to visit is spring. “There’s lower humidity, and you’re not worried about hurricanes,” she says. There’s also a sweet spot when S.C.A.D.—that’s the Savannah College of Art & Design—students are out on break, so things are a little quieter and easier to navigate. And, of course, the city’s many glorious gardens are in bloom! That said, if you can stand the hot weather, summer typically sees fewer tourists, so your time out and about will absolutely involve more interaction with locals.
