We stayed at Belwether House for a long weekend honeymoon. The attention and care of the staff during our stay was exceptional. We had a couples massage, picnic lunch and afternoon tea and each of these services receives a 5-star rating. The property is a short walk to everything Savannah has to offer. We took a different path each time we ventured out and found new & interesting shops, restaurants and historic places to check out. The staff was knowledgeable and each person seemed to do it all with an attitude of “I’ve got this!” It was refreshing to feel cared for in this way by the team at B.H. We will be back!

What’s not to love!?! If you’re like me, you want perfection! You give your all when you work and take care of your family each day so you expect your ‘play’ to offer their all. This place does it!!! I have high expectations and this place exceeds all expectations! Delicious food, a large variety at their, in house, bar, clean rooms, comfortable accommodations. I could go on and on. Will be visiting again. You should too!
