Venue Features
The scene:
An Urban Resort, Properly Done
An outdoor pool oasis. A spa. A cooking school. Fitness classes. Family programming. And a members’ club that hums with conversation. Expect connection, discovery, and the kind of service that feels intuitive rather than intrusive.
Design:
Think European salon meets Southern garden party, filtered through a modern, editorial lens. Plaster walls, soft curves, warm woods, and stone details. The palette lives in that perfectly restrained zone: creamy neutrals, sun-warmed terracotta, olive greens, and inky accents that ground the light. It feels cool in the Savannah heat and cozy when the evening settles in. Furniture leans low and loungeable, inviting people to sit longer than planned.

The vibe: Polished but playful, relaxed but rare.
The takeaway: Hotel Bardo isn’t just where you stay, it’s where your Savannah days quietly peak.
Standout venue features:

Courtyard | 1,140 SF / Affectionately known as “The Oasis.” And yesit lives up to the nickname. Tucked into the heart of the resort, this covered courtyard is equal parts serene and show-stopping. With natural light, open-air flow, and a calm, gathered energy, The Oasis transforms effortlessly into a picture-perfect ceremony backdrop or a breezy cocktail hour setting where conversations linger and glasses refill themselves.
Why it works: protected from the elements, visually striking, and designed to feel intimate without feeling enclosed, an ideal pause point between “I do” and “let’s celebrate.”

Carriage House | 1,952 SF: A modern classic with a soft spot for history. A light-filled carriage house is a thoughtful nod to the resort’s architectural roots reimagined for today’s gatherings. Equal parts polished and inviting, it’s perfectly suited for strategy-forward meetings, intimate celebrations, or a cocktail hour that feels warm, not rushed.
Why it works: clean lines, historic character, and a flexible layout that adapts easily from focused conversation to celebratory flow.

Event Lawn | 1,106 SF
Poolside, sunlit, and effortlessly social. Set between the Carriage House and Bar Bibi, this event lawn delivers that relaxed, we’re-on-vacation energy without sacrificing polish. With the pool as its backdrop and the bar just steps away, it’s an easy choice for open-air receptions, casual ceremonies, or cocktail hours that flow naturally into the night. Why it works: seamless indoor-outdoor energy, built-in ambiance, and a layout that encourages mingling, movement, and one-more-round thinking.

Club Bardo | 1,263 SF
Formal enough to impress. Playful enough to loosen the tie. Perched above Saint Bibiana, Club Bardo is an intimate private club designed for gatherings that want a little personality. With room for up to 80 guests, full buyout options, and a terrace overlooking Forsyth Park, it strikes that rare balance between polished and lively. Why it works: layered, cozy spaces that encourage conversation, an elevated vantage point, and an atmosphere that feels celebratory without being stiff—perfect for cocktail-forward evenings, stylish dinners, and private parties that stretch just a bit longer than planned.

Martinis, Mokes and Mid-Century Modern: 16 Hotels for the Ultimate Vintage Girls’ Summer Vacation
Vintage girls’ trips are on the rise, and they’re not just about finding a venue with nostalgic design from another era. They’re about craving the kinds of trips people took 20 or 30 years ago, when you came home with stories instead of 600 photos, and everyone was in the moment instead of documenting it.  After years of fast, over-documented travel, 2026 is ushering in something quieter and far more considered. Call it a new golden age, or call it hush-pitality. Either way, the shift is clear: trips are becoming less about capturing everything and more about actually being there. We are putting our phones down long enough to enjoy the people in front of us. “Grandma hobbies” have re-entered the chat for a reason: cards, reading, long walks, proper conversations, the art of doing very little and doing it very well. The appeal is not nostalgia for nostalgia’s sake. It is a return to a slower, more social pace that feels better. The best hotels are across the U.S. and Europe, aren’t just leaning back into bygone glamour with retro cabanas, striped umbrellas, and Frank Sinatra energy lobby bars. They’re bringing back the analog experinces too: vinyl listening rooms, card games on boat rides, Moke rides around town, Mahjong, bike rides into town for homemade ice cream, and dinner clubs. Call it Vintage Girls’ Summer, and a return to a Riviera state of mind. You’re officially  invited to the Holiday: VR Summer Club ☀️🦢: a collection of spaces and stays devoted to this exact way of gathering, from French wedding weekends to rooftop hotels with lunch served from retro lunchboxes, seaside trains and 70's poolside parties in Mallorca  (→ explore the full collection). Below, is just one stop inside the collection. A lineup of hotels that understand the golden age of hospitality.  Reported by: Pallavi Mehra
