Advisor - Savannah Soirée: A Luxe Girls Weekend Getaway
Curator’s statement

Savannah is a magical destination where centuries-old oak trees draped in Spanish moss create a dreamy, almost cinematic backdrop for every stroll. Its perfectly walkable historic district is full of charming squares, cobblestone streets and beautifully preserved architecture that feels straight out of a storybook. From grand mansions and hidden gardens to trendy rooftop bars and boutique shops, the city blends old-world elegance with modern Southern flair. Whether you're brunching by the river or ghost-hunting at night, Savannah's charm lingers long after you leave.

Where to stay

Unlock perks by contacting Leah to book your trip.

Day 1: Check in & toast the weekend

  • Dinner at Husk Savannah: Start the weekend with refined Southern cuisine in a beautifully restored historic mansion. The menu highlights local ingredients with an upscale twist — expect plates like heritage pork, fresh oysters and standout craft cocktails.

  • Rooftop Drinks at Peregrin: End the night on a high note at this rooftop oasis above the Perry Lane. With panoramic views, botanical cocktails and a chic crowd, it's the perfect place to toast your first night in Savannah.

Day 2: Tybee Island adventure

Morning pickup with Tybee Beach Bus

No need to plan — this all-inclusive beach day experience has you covered with:

  • Roundtrip transportation to Tybee

  • Beach towels, a stocked cooler and a liquor store stop

  • Cruiser bikes for exploring the island in style

  • Beach + bike time

Cycle through the laid-back streets, stop for pier photos and kick back in the sand with your crew. Tybee’s charm is equal parts surf-town chill and salty Southern soul.

Lunch options on Tybee Island

  • Treylor Park Tybee – Funky beach bites like chicken pancake tacos and avocado fries

  • The Deck Beach Bar & Kitchen – Casual, colorful and just steps from the ocean

  • AJ’s Dockside – Fried seafood, cold drinks and epic sunset views

Evening: Hearse Ghost Tour

Back in Savannah, hop into an actual hearse for one of the city’s most iconic (and creepiest) tours. You'll cruise past haunted mansions and spooky alleyways as your guide shares spine-tingling stories of Savannah’s ghostly past.

Optional nightcap spots:

  • Artillery Bar – Stunning interiors and classic cocktails

  • Alley Cat Lounge — A tucked-away speakeasy with an insanely creative drink list

  • The Ordinary Pub – Great for late-night snacks and bourbon flights

Day 3: Brunch, riverfront wandering & a glam finale

Brunch at Rhett

Located inside The Alida, Rhett serves elevated coastal brunch in a sleek, industrial-chic setting.

Riverfront exploring

After brunch, walk off the mimosas with shopping and sightseeing along the Savannah River.

  • Explore the Plant Riverside District with its boutique shops, riverside cafés and art installations.

  • Pop into the JW Marriott lobby to see the massive crystal geodes and fossil collection.

  • Don’t miss The Paris Market for curated gifts, books and home finds.

Afternoon fun at electric moon skytop lounge

Part rooftop bar, part adult playground, Electric Moon offers live music, inventive cocktails and — yes — an adult slide. It's playful, photogenic, and surprisingly classy.

Final dinner spots for a stylish sendoff

  • The Grey – Fine dining in a former Greyhound bus terminal with serious style and flavor.

  • The Collins Quarter – Aussie-American fusion with a vibrant, Instagram-worthy vibe.

  • Prohibition Savannah – A fun, moody space for shared plates and expertly crafted drinks.
