In 2016, my family and I took a much-needed trip to Savannah, Georgia, and it turned out to be one of those timeless memories you carry in your heart forever. We stayed at the Hyatt Regency Hotel, right on the riverfront—just steps from the buzz of the Riverwalk. From the moment we checked in, the hotel felt like a retreat within the city. The rooms were comfortable, the amenities plentiful (yes, we peeked into the workout room, even if we didn’t stay long), and the coffee shop downstairs was a hit—especially thanks to the baristas who seemed to know how to make mornings feel magical.
Savannah itself felt like something out of a storybook. We strolled the Riverwalk, stopping at local shops, picking up little treasures and chatting with vendors who made us feel like locals. One of the best parts? We walked at night and felt completely safe—the cobblestone streets and historic buildings glowing under the streetlamps gave everything a soft, charming kind of calm. We even took a riverboat ride, which offered a whole new view of the city and some much-needed fresh air.
But the highlight for me wasn’t the shops or the sightseeing—it was seeing my mother’s big smile as she looked out at the river, surrounded by her daughters and grandson. That moment alone made the trip worth every mile. Spending time with my sisters and nephew, away from the rush of everyday life, reminded me of how grounding and beautiful family time can be.
And yes, we took our time wandering down Market Street, soaking in the rhythm of the city, letting ourselves be tourists and family all at once. Savannah gave us more than a getaway—it gave us togetherness, comfort, and joy in the little things. I’ll never forget it.
