Sage Hospitality Group, together with Tidal Real Estate Partners, announced that The Ann Savannah will be joining Sage’s portfolio of lifestyle properties. Anticipated to complete its conversion and join the Apartments by Marriott Bonvoy brand by early 2025, The Ann Savannah will have 157 premium, serviced apartment-style units, and Sage will oversee all operations for The Ann, including food and beverage offerings.
“The Ann Savannah marks an exciting new chapter for both Savannah’s hospitality scene and Sage Hospitality," Daniel del Olmo, president of Sage Hospitality Group, said in a statement. "We’re thrilled to bring our 40+ years of expertise to the new Apartments by Marriott Bonvoy brand within the Marriott Bonvoy portfolio, which we believe has tremendous growth potential across many of our target markets nationwide. We are grateful to partner with Tidal on this exciting conversion project and look forward to collaborating with Marriott on growing the Apartments by Marriott Bonvoy brand as we continue our journey to become America’s favorite lifestyle hospitality company."
The Ann Savannah is centrally located on Ann Street in downtown Savannah. Formerly the Ann Street Lofts, a heavy timber construction apartment building, the space is being redesigned and relaunched as design-forward accommodations for business or leisure travelers seeking a home away from home. Each apartment-style space will include private bedroom(s), separate pet-friendly living spaces, full kitchen and washer/dryer, accommodating guests for trips of any length. Authentic local touches will be incorporated throughout the property to create a neighborhood feel upon arrival, bringing the culture of Savannah into each apartment. Guests will be welcomed by a host—available 24/7—into a stylish lobby and enjoy amenities including an expansive fitness center and outdoor space.
“We are excited to collaborate with Sage Hospitality Group and Tidal Real Estate on the development of The Ann Savannah,” said Lisa Sexton, SVP, full service brands, U.S. East Region & Canada, Marriott International. “As Marriott continues to grow the Apartments by Marriott Bonvoy brand, we believe this property will be the perfect addition to the local community and provide a comfortable home away from home for travelers staying in the historic city of Savannah.”
