We had a wonderful stay at Jones Street Retreat. The location is perfect to walk everywhere in historic district. The street and location is beautiful as well. The accommodations were great as well, bed was very comfortable. The rental is very cutely decorated, has everything we needed for our long weekend there. Also, we had dinner downstairs at Mrs. Wilkes Dining Room- (got to go in the back door to avoid the line) it was the highlight meal of our trip- cannot be skipped! Would definitely stay here again.

Our stay in Savannah was wonderful and partly due to staying at Wilkes Three. Although this apartment could use some work, it was still comfortable. The location was great! We enjoyed having so much space.
The furniture in the living room is in need of cleaning or replacing. Chair arms are soiled and couch not very comfortable to sit on. Bed was good.

I’m a SCAD alum and brought my parents to Savannah. A friend recommended Lucky Savannah and oh my god were we impressed! It is right on Jones St. walking distance to Forsyth Park, good cafes and restaurants and all my nostalgia places I wanted to show my parents around. The place was as described. Really well refurbished to keep the vintage aesthetic. The check-in and check-out was smooth. We had enough linens and towels for all. Parents took lots of pictures around the place! Would totally recommend!

The Wilkes Three was the perfect place to stay. A large apartment on the most beautiful Jones Street in Savannah. We were within walking distance of so many wonderful sites. We were able to come back to the apartment throughout the day if we wanted. The apartment was very spacious and tastefully decorated. It was just as described in the description and the communication from the owner was very detailed and extremely helpful. We loved walking to Forsyth Park, City Market, River Street, Mercer-Williams House, SCAD Museum and several cafes and restaurants. Mrs. Wilkes Dining Room downstairs had the best fried chicken too. We would definitely stay here again and recommend it to others.

We loved our stay at The Wilkes House in Historic Savannah, centrally located on beautiful Jones St. Our Wilkes 3 apartment was spacious & location was excellent. This historic home is clean, well kept, comfortably furnished & charming. It had dishes, pans & utensils needed to cook our own meals. Communication from the Lucky Savannah folks was great: They texted when our room was ready, emailed tips about our stay, sites, tours, & restaurants. We flew in for a 1 week stay in early May & didn't need to rent a car. Took a taxi to & from the airport. We walked or used the free DOT bus (bus stop is on the corner 2 doors away-a 1 minute walk). Only a 12 minute walk to Forsyth Park (awesome farmer’s market on Saturdays, plus during the week it had a dog show, volleyball tournament, a wedding), a 15 minute walk to the Visitor Center/Railroad Museum/ & trolley tour depart points, a 20 minute walk to River St. We enjoyed walking in the historic district and the beautiful squares. Favorite grocery stores: Brighter Day Natural Foods Market & Kroger. Favorite carryout prepared foods: Brighter Day Natural Foods Market, David’s Crab House. Favorite restaurants: the lunch buffet at the historic Mrs. Wilkes House below the apartment (11am-2pm), the Pirates House lunch buffet with a Chatham Artillery Punch, The Sentient Bean. Favorite Activities: Eating & having our morning coffee at the small bistro table on our front porch overlooking beautiful Jones St, the fun Tybee Island Dolphin Tour on Gray Line Tours with Chris who included stops at the lighthouse, beach & lunch at the Crab House, the free passenger ferry on River St. crossing the Savannah River to see the Savannah skyline, the 3-museum tour pkg from Coastal Heritage Society included an historic home tour/Savannah History Museum/Railroad Museum, & Mass at the historic St. John the Baptist Cathedral. When we return to Savannah, we would definitely stay here again.

We were so happy staying at The Wilkes House. Very good communication between us and host. Check in and check out was easy and response time quick. Our unit was huge and very clean and located on a street that was voted the prettiest street in America. Would definitely recommend.

This property is in a perfect location for walking to everything in the historic district. Street parking was available and meters only enforced Mon-Fri from 8:00 to 5:00. We were told that our rental was ready, but when we arrived it was not cleaned at all. The management company sent someone out to clean it promptly. The property could use some TLC. The free meal at Mrs. Wilkes was a fun perk, just know that you access the restaurant from the back of the property (don't wait in the long line) and that the restaurant is only open for lunch Mon-Fri.

Wilkes Three was the perfect spot for a late December trip to Savannah. Its in a Victorian era home conveniently located in the historic district on beautiful Jones Street within walking distance to most attractions. The rooms are spacious, nicely decorated, and especially clean given the age of the building. A couple of notes depending on individual needs - it does require going up steps, and there is no ceiling fan in the bedroom (although there are fans in the closet). We were fine with both, although not sure I'd do without a ceiling fan if I came in the summer. The biggest selling point, however, that sets it apart from similar rentals is the free lunch for two at Mrs. Wilkes Dining Room downstairs. Getting to bypass the line and eat for free at such a Savannah institution can't be beat!

Wonderful spot in exactly the right location for strolling the historic district and downtown areas.

Went to Savannah for our 50th anniversary. We chose this unit because we knew the location and we love to walk the historic area. Perfect location.
Wiles Three is NOT for those who might not be able to climb a lot of stairs; however, having the entire floor was perfect for us.
I do wish the owner would replace the coffeemaker with a Keurig.
The bedroom definitely needs curtains over the blinds for those of us who do not like to have light in our bedrooms.
The unit was as spotless as any we have stayed.
The kitchen, as stated, is a galley, not really updated, few utensils, stove was rusty. However, we did not go to Savannah to cook.
We had no trouble enjoying our lunches included with the stay. We did, however, not have good communication about whether or not we could skip the line.
We would definitely stay here again. It was a treat to meet Marcia as we had met her grandmother, Mrs. Wilkes, years ago.

The property was exceptional. Plenty of room, bright and decorated with period furnishings. Location was great with many of Savannah’s attractions within walking distance. Parking was easily accessible. The, only minor drawbacks were the warming plate on the coffee maker was not working and the television had some quirky operating instructions (although we didn’t come to Savannah to watch television). Wilkes’ lunch was a nice added amenity. Would stay here again.

What a find! I was very pleased at finding this place and it was just like it was described. It was very clean and in a beautiful location centrally located to the historic downtown area. I made it to Forsyth Park and the farmer's market by walking there in a few minutes. I also enjoyed many good eating spots, including Vic's on the River and The Olde Pink House. It was a very good vacation!

The apartment was beautiful with original hardwood floors, 12-foot ceilings, and antique furnishings. Very responsive hosts, and a superb lunch at Mrs. Wilkes' Restaurant was included with our stay. Be prepared to climb long stairs and pay to park at the meter, but the stay will be worth it!

We've stayed at many places in savannah as we build our house and come in town to check on construction. This one is really great. There is so much room to stretch out. My husband and I work, and we're both able to take calls without disrupting each other. The bed is comfortable, the location is super (we like to run in Forsythe Park and it's close to everything). Even though above Mrs. Wilkes, it's still easy to find parking.

And fruit flies everywhere

This apartment was a great discovery and is located in a terrific location. It is in a very atmospheric building and street with ample parking (paid) nearby. However, the apartment is listed as being for four adults, but this include a decidedly uncomfortable sofa bed which might be suitable for two children, but not two adults. It is time to retire the aged sofa bed and replace it with something suitable for two adults. The free lunch at Mrs. Wilkes Dining Room downstairs is a real bonus. All in all, a great stay and terrific place for a couple or young family.

We arrived on a Monday and were able to park right in front. Previous reviews had tips on how to get in the first door really helped and made entry quick and easy (you have to pull the door towards you while unlocking). Entry to the actual apartment was also quick and easy with the code. The apartment was beautiful and very clean. More than enough space for the two of us. The main bed was very comfortable and spacious. We ordered to-go from the downstairs restaurant and left our name (per hospitality app instructions for the voucher for two). They were very kind and generously gave us a couple extra sides and surprises. The food was wonderful!! I do recommend you get in line before they open as they were not doing dine in and the outside space/tables filled up quickly. We did have to wait an hour for them to call us to go back down and pick up our food, but that was entirely on us for not getting in line earlier and the food was definitely worth the wait. We walked everywhere the whole trip and used the Park Savannah app to pay our parking outside the building remotely and easily.We would definitely stay here again! Ps if you need to sleep with a fan on they have two large ones in the living room closet that were wonderful.

My husband and I planned a trip to Charleston and Savannah with our 2 boys in June. I actually visited Mrs Wilkes with my family back in the summer of 1990. It was a vivid memory of a delicious meal we all shared in Savannah with family and close friends. When I was planning our trip, I knew we had to plan on lunch again with my boys, but was even more excited to see that we could stay at the "boarding house." We loved our stay at Wilkes 3 in Savannah. Perfect location and walking distance to great restaurants and sights. The Wilkes 3 had great set up and plenty of room for 4 of us. Quaint, cozy and beautifully decorated. Laundry and kitchen was a huge plus as it was halfway through our vacation. We were so happy to meet Marcia, Misty and the crew from Mrs Wilkes and have lunch downstairs before our departure. It was as delicious as I remembered and definite highlight of our trip. Thank you for the fabulous hospitality. We will definitely be back!

Great place but..... was told from a representative they were bringing my certificate for my free lunch right over, waited 4 hours... nothing. Then emailed and they said they would credit my next stay???? How do you know I would stay there again. Very disappointed with this.

This was our third time staying here and we just love coming back. Having lived in Savannah for several years, this feels like home and I don’t feel like a tourist in my city when staying at the Wilkes House.

The apartment was larger than expected. The location was perfect if your intention is to enjoy Savannah’s historic district. There was so much to explore with wonderful restaurants. I was with my two daughters and all of us loved the apartment and location. The only negative comment I have is that the sofa bed was extremely uncomfortable to the point that we couldn’t use it, so it should be replaced. Other than that, it was perfect ��

Our stay was pretty much perfect. The apartment is located in "the most beautiful street in Savannah" as described by the tour bus guides. The kitchen was awesome! The bedroom and bed were spacious and comfortable. It's a historic home, yet it's well kept. There's a restaurant downstairs were we got a free complementary meal fit to feed an army. The Lucky Savannah people are AWESOME!

First of all, there is a fan in one of the closets!! This is important to those that like fans when they sleep. There are not fans in the rooms.
I loved our stay in Lucky Savannah! We wandered around the town, by foot, because the location is an easy walk to wherever you need.
I recommend going to the City of Savannah office to purchase a daily parking pass, if you will be there on week days. Weekend parking was free. Also look for certain sides of the road to have street sweeping on certain days. You have to move your car. It’s all very do-able!
We really liked the charm of our rental, the space was fine for our family of 4. There is not a door between the bedroom and living room though. That’s really all I would change about the entire condo!
We had lunch at Mrs Wilkes the last afternoon we were there and really enjoyed it!
I highly recommend Lucky Savannah. The price, comfort and location are A+++!

It’s always a pleasure to visit Mrs. Wilkes. I love the historical and homey atmosphere of the house. Jones Street is beautiful!
I want to mention the camaraderie that amazed me in the restaurant below. During these less than perfect times, the owners of Mrs. Wilkes restaurant and their families pulled together and kept the show going. It showed true spirit and hope for tomorrow.
You won’t be sorry if you stay with this family!

Great location on Jones Street, beautiful views of the cobble stone and oak trees out our windows of the second floor. We traveled here with our children who used the pull out couch. It was very uncomfortable for them and the king bed was also uncomfortable for us. There was a hump in the middle and it was very firm. I suggest new beds!! That would make this review a 5 star! The place was very clean and there were fresh flowers in the dining room, a nice touch!

My wife and I had a wonderful long weekend trip to Savannah which included a very nice stay in Ms. Wilkes #3 apartment. The apartment was neat, clean, adequately furnished, and comfortable. The bed was very comfortable! The bathroom is old and needs to be remodeled, and the kitchen could use updating too. Also, there was a welcome basket and note, but it was for some other person (confusing). And, the kitchen was not well furnished for morning coffee. Only one coffee filter for a three night stay? Finally, a small point, but the door lock to get in from the outside is confusing. But, overall, I would rate the apartment an 8 out of 10.

Loved the space, but was travelling with elderly who had trouble with the stairs. The pull out bed is so bad we had to put it in the floor!

We didn't know what to expect when we walked in. It is a full apartment with kitchen, laundry, dining room. Free shuttle is just 30 yards away. Mrs Wilkes (best food in town) is just below on the first floor. If you stay there, make sure you check the kitchen for your free coupon to Mrs. Wilkes worth $50.
Note: to open front door, turn key clockwise, while pulling door toward you.
One minor complaint: the upstairs neighbor stomps around like horse and tends to drop things.

I was in town to watch my grandson’s baseball team play in a tournament and stayed at Wilkes Three. I fell in love with Savannah after my first visit years ago and after this last visit, my feelings are the same. The location was great and Jones Street is so beautiful. I would highly recommend staying at Wilkes Three. It has the charm of a historic home but modern conveniences. It is several walkable streets from the more crowded River Street area which was nice. Lucky Savannah did an excellent job of keeping me posted on the days leading up to my visit. I will use them for my next visit.

Could not have asked for more charming accommodations or a better area. We so enjoyed our stay at Wilkes Three and would highly recommend it. Having a full apartment (and washer/dryer) at our disposal made our trip that much more relaxing and allowed us more freedom. The addition of lunch at Mrs. Wilkes and getting to meet the owners and hear stories of growing up in that very building made it that much more special. Easy walk to Forsythe Park and all that Savannah has to offer. If you are driving I would recommend checking into short term street parking with the city to save yourself the agro of paying the meter every couple of hours. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!

We had a wonderful stay, and can't recommend enhancing your visit with a Lucky Savannah rental enough. The apartment was extremely charming and located literally on the most beautiful street in Savannah. It was quiet and perfect!
When we first arrived, it did take us a minute to figure out where our apartment was, as you enter from above Mrs. Wilkes diner and the apartment is part of several other apartments within one building.
We only had one major snag - because of how the apartment is set up, there is a sign NOT to lock the deadbolt on the front door of the building as you walk out. You lock your apartment with a digital code, but you do NOT lock the building door. Unfortunately, when my friend and I returned at 9 PM we were locked out. Could have been a scary situation, being two women alone in the city at night. Fortunately, someone was still in the Lucky Savannah office and arrived within 15 minutes. Even she couldn't get in though, because there is no key to unlock the deadbolt from the outside. Thankfully, another guest was in their apartment and unlocked it for us.
Turned out OK, could potentially be a very frustrating situation. I think they definitely need to reconsider that system.
We were there for four days, and they do not replenish new towels, wash cloths, etc. We didn't really think about that, and didn't have time to reach out to ask for new, but just an FYI.
Beautiful place otherwise, definitely recommend!

The Wilkes Three was a convenient, historic lodging for our trip to Savannah. We visited to attend the Savannah Tour of Homes and Gardens last week, and this location proved to be in an area that was within walking distance to most of our stops. The management company was helpful in making the reservation as well as with questions that we had. To make future guests stay more enjoyable, the bathroom fixtures need replaced and the bathroom tub and vanity need updating as well. The fixtures hardly worked. The kitchen also is in need of a facelift--cabinets were worn in spots and the appliances and sink need to be replaced. The washer and dryer had seen better days. There was a gas leak when we were there, and the management company did respond promptly. We never heard what the end result was, but the gas company was there for some time. More towels and washcloths would be appreciated for the number of people staying for everyday, and the blankets that were in the closet were stained and dirty. The king bed was comfortable, but the pull-out couch mattress needs to be replaced. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and coming back at the end of the day to an apartment rather than a hotel room. We also really appreciated and enjoyed the vouchers to Mrs. Wilkes dining room. An extra one for the third guest would have been appreciated and an extra perk.

This Wilkes Three apartment was in a wonderful area within walking distance to everything you would want to see in historic Savannah. We walked to Forsyth Park every day as it’s my favorite place in the historic area. We met the owner the first day and she was very helpful with information about getting in to the apartment even though the people from Lucky Savannah area always there to assist you. The apartment was very clean and pretty. It does need a new stove and oven unit as it’s very old and not very good for cooking which we would have liked to do more of. Please, please get HD for the tv. A tv in the bedroom would b nice. The bedroom was beautiful. Other than that our stay was great and we will use Lucky Savannah again. We were very satisfied

This was one of the best vacations I have had in a really long time. This was a beautiful home/apartment with great history and charm. If you ever get a chance to stay at the Wilkes house, you must try it. It was also very affordable for the time frame that my husband and I stayed here. He still feel that we had a ghost in our apartment, but I guess that was one of the charming things about staying in Savannah.

Wilkes Three was a beautiful place to stay! Spacious rooms and clean. We walked everywhere, the location couldn’t have been better! One thing to note is that the parking on W Jones is metered and you have to feed the meter every two hours or risk being ticketed. You can get a parking pass from the Welcome Center in Savannah if you wanted. We ended up parking in a garage several blocks away. Since we walked everywhere it wasn’t really an issue to not have our car right outside the house. The only thing about the house I would change would be to put curtains in the bedroom. There’s a streetlight outside the window and it shines into the room through the blinds at night. Otherwise it was perfect! Very well equipped kitchen too, not that we used it much! Mrs Wilkes Dining Room was THE best meal of our trip!!! Amazing food and cozy atmosphere. The employees there are awesome!

The rental was amazing, very convenient and walkable to everything. Love the decor, it really set the tone for the city. The free lunch for two at Mrs. Wilkes Dining Room was amazing!

Contacted the management company and it was correctly quickly. Everyone we talked with was friendly, polite, and helpful.

From the moment we arrived in Savannah, we were taken aback by the beautiful moss filled trees and flowering bushes along the scenic, historical roadways! Mrs. Wilkes boarding house was no exception to this beauty. The house was very conveniently located to all the adventures Savannah had to offer. It was within walking distance to everything. Wilkes Three was decorated beautifully with historical furnishings but had all the modern conveniences and amenities a guest needed. The property was spotless and very well-maintained. We very much enjoyed the free lunch that Mrs. Wilkes' grandaughter provided with our stay. We loved the southern food (we counted 24 dishes) and the friendly conversation with our neighbors. While staying in the boarding house, we walked to numerous beautiful squares, saw "Forrest Gump", toured the Owens Thomas House, ate at the historic Pirate House, spent our evenings at the waterfront watching ships come in, and enjoyed Paula Deen's retail shop and restaurant. We highly recommend the Old Savannah trolly tours as well.

We really enjoyed our stay in Savannah, a city full of history and character with its own soul. And this appartement, in the heart of the historic district was perfectly in sync with the overall city atmosphere, as we had the impression to live as real Savannah inhabitants. The appartement, pretty huge, has plenty of charm, decorated and furnished with taste in all rooms including bathroom and kitchen. The voucher to access Mrs Wicles restaurant, located in the basement was a real plus to cut the impressive queue forming every day at lunchtime. We really experienced and enjoyed here the delicious simple and true Southern cooking as well as the warm sense of hospitality. Despite the WiFi connection not always very stable, all was perfect. Definitely a recommended address for current and future Savannah lovers.

I went there with my family (wife and 3 kids, one of them a baby). The apartment is very well located, in one of the most beautiful streets in Savannah, and close to all Historic district attractions. The apartment was very comfortable for us (using the couch as a bed for the kids), clean and with nice light during the afternoon. The only complains were:
- access instructions not very clear and we had to call the manager office.
- wifi signal was super slow and spotty.
Other than that, we had a wonderful stay and loved every second we stayed in the apartment.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Lucky Savannah Wilkes Three. The property was well maintained and very clean. We didn't get to eat at the restaurant because there was a very long line an hour before they opened. I would highly recommend this property to friends and would definitely stay here again.

This place is amazing. In the heart of historic Savannah and right above the best fried chicken around town. The only thing was that the internet did not always want to work properly. Other than that, everyone is helpful and friendly, and I highly recommend this charming place.

We stayed while moving my daughter into her SCAD dorm. The home was roomy comfortable and had all the comforts of home. It is at a very convenient location where most could walk to all major attractions in the historic area. We enjoyed our stay.

My wife and I stayed for four nights. We really enjoyed this apartment. It was in excellent condition, quiet, and convenient to everything we wanted to see. The people of Lucky Savannah were very friendly and thought of everything.

The apartment was clean and very nice. The pictures don't really do it justice. It's bigger than it looks in the photos. The sofa bed worked very well as we also brought a couple of our kids. We were very concerned about trying to find a parking spot on the road but we never had to park further than a block away. Just make sure you notice the warning signs about the street sweeper on Saturday and Sunday morning. We did get a ticket for it ($25). Overall, we highly recommend it and will definitely come back.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Wilkes Home in Savannah! The home is historically gorgeous with all the character of an old southern home. On our first night (10pm) we did discover a maintenance issue and contacted Lucky Savannah and they were immediately responsive.
Tessa was wonderful through the process and made sure everything was handled very professionally and our needs were met. We were very impressed with their responsiveness, professionalism, and follow up throughout the process and during our weekend stay. She and staff made you feel as though they genuinely cared and were very professional.
We would highly recommend using Lucky Savannah! They give a small business family feel to their service, with outstanding customer service & professionalism!

Great location! Clean and all details were thought of. We had a problem with the air conditioning and the management was so nice - offered to come fix it but we declined because it was at midnight. Instead they went out and bought 2 fans for us to have until the morning - the ac was fixed promptly the next day.

The rental property was exactly as described. The pictures on the website were perfectly representative of the property. The check in and check out could not have been easier.
