Georgia’s Savannah Enchants with Extraordinary Dining, Luxurious Poolside Experiences, and Handpicked Stay Packages to Create the Perfect Spring Getaway at The Alida

Published on April 30, 2025

The Alida, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel in Savannah, Georgia, is ushering in the warmer months with an exciting selection of seasonal offerings designed to capture the essence of spring and summer. From new seasonal dishes at Rhett to the highly anticipated return of The Cabana Club, along with the introduction of a vibrant weekend brunch at The Lost Square and exclusive stay packages, The Alida promises to deliver guests an unforgettable Southern experience.

Fresh Flavors and Seasonal Dishes at Rhett and Cabana Club

This spring, The Alida’s culinary team is serving up new seasonal dishes at two of the hotel’s signature dining spots: Rhett and The Cabana Club. At Rhett, the hotel’s acclaimed restaurant, diners can indulge in creative Southern-inspired dishes featured on both the breakfast and dinner menus. For breakfast, guests can savor the indulgence of French toast topped with fresh berries, lemon mascarpone, toasted almonds, and maple syrup, or enjoy the savory avocado toast with poached egg, tomato confit, pistachio dukkah, and Georgia lettuce. In the evening, the menu transitions to refined coastal favorites, such as Scottish salmon with farro, Swiss chard, and beurre blanc, diver scallops with pea purée, bacon, and brown butter, and a rich blue crab risotto with asparagus, mushrooms, and pecorino Romano. To round out the offerings, Rhett presents a refreshing twist on the classic shrimp cocktail, served with a spicy chili-lime cocktail sauce.

As the summer heats up, The Cabana Club comes back with bold new flavors for poolside dining. Guests can relax with craft cocktails while enjoying south-of-the-border-inspired dishes like Baja fish tacos with chipotle crema and red cabbage slaw, or Modelo-marinated carne asada with charred onions. The Cabana Club serves as the perfect poolside retreat, featuring private cabanas, chic loungers, and shaded seating for guests seeking a relaxed escape from the hustle of the city. For those who desire additional privacy, The Cove at Cabana Club offers an intimate space for small groups, with reserved lounge seating for up to 12, a pool table, an outdoor jumbo game set, and a flat-screen TV. Local visitors and hotel guests can also enjoy day passes, which include access to the pool, fitness center, and cabana rentals.

Brunch Gets a New Beat at The Lost Square

The Lost Square, the hotel’s rooftop bar, is redefining weekend brunch in Savannah with its newly introduced Spritz & Hits. This lively brunch event, offered every Saturday and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., pairs handcrafted spritz cocktails with delectable brunch dishes, all set against the backdrop of curated DJ sets. Guests can enjoy indulgent dishes such as smoked salmon toast and Georgia olive oil pancakes while soaking in panoramic views of the river and city skyline. The energetic beats and vibrant atmosphere make it the perfect spot to enjoy both great food and great music.

Curated Overnight Packages for Every Traveler

The Alida is also offering a variety of specially curated overnight packages, providing the perfect base for a sun-drenched getaway in Savannah. The Savor the Sun package, part of the Makeready Portfolio, offers up to 10% off the Best Available Rate, plus a $50 food and beverage credit to enjoy at Rhett, The Lost Square, or poolside at Cabana Club. Ideal for those seeking a relaxed luxury experience with breathtaking riverside views, this package invites guests to unwind and take in the charm of the city.

For families, the Family Getaway in Savannah package is the ultimate option, offering a spacious penthouse suite with a connecting King Room—perfect for families to relax and spread out.
