Wickford Waterfront 12 min to Newport & 15 min URI
Elaine has a lovely apartment. Very pristine and quiet with amazing views. Our stay was extremely comfortable. Her instructions were perfect and we had no problem with whatsoever anything. If you’re ever there do not miss the morning sunrise. Outstanding. Thank you Elaine & Rich for a lovely stay. We hope to come back some day.

Marina on the Sakonett
We had a great stay at this Airbnb. Our hosts were very nice and Jenifer was extremely accommodating. The space was very comfortable , clean, and the kitchen had everything you need to prepare meals. The area is very walkable with many great restaurants, bars, and an awesome coffee shop very close by. Parking was perfect and a huge plus was the ability to take our boat also!!

Westgate Watson House apt 2 waterfront
We loved staying in Lisel’s place. It was spotless, quaint and well equipped. The location was excellent, a few blocks from great restaurants and a short walk to the beach. The yard was amazing along a pond, so quiet and peaceful and we had are dedicated Adirondack chairs! Highly recommended!

Jennifer’s Historic Downtown Loft
Wonderful stay! Very clean, spacious, conveniently located with parking. Thank you!

Beautiful historic house in the heart of Bristol
The place was so spacious for our group of friends for a weekend away! It was very well kept and we had an amazing stay!

The Crows Nest - 1747 Isaac Pierce House 2nd Floor
The apartment is very comfortable. The pictures are accurate. Beds comfortable. Plenty of very nice bath linens. I loved the types and amount of lighting in every room. Wonderful water pressure in the shower. The kitchen is very functional . I loved cooking on the beautiful big stove. We really appreciated having both a Keurig and a coffee maker. The one thing I would caution about is the stairs. They are as pictured. We had no problem with them, but people with knee issues might. I will certainly look for this property again when in the area.

Beautiful studio/water front
Our stay at Kristina’s place was perfect for a weekend reunion at Brown. We were able to do laundry locally after traveling for a week and before traveling another two. It was quiet, serene and tastefully decorated. A great escape from the hustle and crowds of downtown providence and the brown campus. We needed more toilet paper and Kristina brought it within minutes. Great host and highly recommend the Airbnb! The bed was super comfy too!

Magical waterfront retreat
We had a lovely stay! The sounds of the water in the morning and the beautiful views set the tone for a wonderful and relaxing trip. Everything was clean and as expected.

Cozy Barrington Home with a Private Pool
Reina’s place was exactly what we needed! Convenient, clean, very comfy bed. Will stay here again!

Charming Waterfront Bungalow "Cove Cottage"
We had a fantastic stay in Kristin's place. It was exactly as described and shown in the photos- cute, clean, cozy and bright. The back yard has a lovely view of the cove- it was so nice having morning tea/coffee out there and being in a peaceful, beautiful setting. The neighborhood is quiet and residential. Kristin was very kind and communicative throughout our stay. I would absolutely stay here again!

Waterfront Ocean Barrington
We had a wonderful time at Maria’s house. The place is truly incredible and the view is spectacular. Tons of space and great for a big group. Maria thought of everything and even left us provisions, that were so helpful like eggs, bread, and a coffee cake! Would love to come back.

Coastal Portsmouth Home w/ Bay Access Near Newport
Very cute cottage on the water and super quiet and peaceful! Beds were very very comfortable and kitchen had everything we needed. Spiral staircase is definitely tricky to get up and down for elderly and young kids but not a huge issue for us. Overall great little cottage and we would be back!

Downtown Bristol Seaside Cottage
The place was amazing. It was beautifully decorated and very clean. It has a lovely view of the water and is walkable to many shops and restaurants. The host was very responsive and helpful. We were one hundred percent satisfied with our stay and hope to return again in the future.

Bristol Harbor House
We loved our stay! The home was spotless and neat as a pin. It was beautifully and thoughtfully appointed with a blend of vintage pieces with modern comforts. The kitchen is nicely equipped with all the essentials including coffee and a selection of teas. Even the towels were lovely! It was so fun to walk to restaurants, bars and shopping. The water view was a great bonus!

Bristol Harbor Waterfront in Historic Downtown.
Our family of four had an amazing week staying in Marianne and Tom's downtown rental. They took great care in this building's renovation and historical preservation, and every detail of it shows. The space was comfortable--plenty of room for each of us to spread out but also get some great family time together. The location is spectacular, looking out on Bristol harbor. We spent a great deal of time on the second-floor deck, watching all of the harbor goings-on, from boats coming in and out to countless walkers with their dogs. We loved the energy of this part of Bristol, which had some beautiful quiet time in the morning and had lots of festive spirit at night. We walked so easily to shops and restaurants, and we also rode our bikes to Colt State Park several times. We could not have asked for anything more from our vacation. Marianne and Tom were welcoming, responsive, and super-knowledgeable about the area. 1000% recommend!

Ocean Oasis with Water access
We really enjoyed our stay. The view is surreal. Location is a bit far off but that what you want sometimes. Irrespective it’s not far away from anywhere you may need to go. Overall would go there again in the future.

Pelham Court was a great stay. Great communication for checking in and checking out as well as during our stay. Very clean! The bed and pillows were extremely comfortable. It was great to be able to walk to all the restaurants and the shops. Would definitely recommend staying here.

Endeavour's Quarters in heart of historic Newport
I can't say enough about the amazing experience I had staying at Barton's and Suzanne's place. First, Barron responds quickly and goes above and beyond to assure your stay is pleasant, easy and that you're well informed on local sweet spots and activities. He was a pleasure to talk to, as always. When you arrive, you'll first smile at the curated way it is beautifully furnished with every comfort in mind. But, then you'll start to notice the special touches left to make you feel well taken care of. There was a basket of snacks, and water and soda in the refrigerator with a kind note saying to please help your self. Such a special appreciated touch to the make you feel welcome. The location is a few doors down from the Thames St. and easily walkable to Bowen's Wharf and many attractions. I had a wonderful t experience at Barton's place and plan to have the be my only choice for Newport. Enjoy, Kathy

Hidden Newport gem! Waterfront, close to town!
This Airbnb in Newport is the best I could've hoped for; the views are amazing! I'd totally stay here again in a heartbeat if I ever visit RI.

2BR Newport Oceanside Condo Resort w/2 Pools!
Fantastic place! Great location—walkable to many shops and restaurants and transportation. Very quaint area. Danielle’s place was clean and the check-in staff were super friendly and recommended lots of things for us. Only recommendation I’d have is to have a hairdryer available in the unit. We would definitely stay again.

Timeshare Rental. 3rd floor Condo w/ water view
We are so pleased with our stay which has a beautiful water view! It was so nice to see all the activities and beautiful boats passing by. The condo was clean and spacious and the bed was so so comfortable! We were in the heart of the downtown and were able to walk to the many shops, restaurants and fun activities happening around us! So much to do! We absolutely loved our stay and will hope to book this again. Marc thank you for being a great host! Very easy to check in and accommodations were excellent! :)

Wyndham Newport Overlook | 2BR/2BA King Bed Suite
This is a very nice location, next to the bridge and peaceful. It would be helpful to know in advance that the checkin front desk is at 150 Conanicus Ave, Jamestown, RI. Although the drive to there is short and pleasant through the beautiful neighborhoods. We actually enjoyed dinner at the same location JB’s on the Water. Rooms are spacious and clean. If you like cook, make sure bring spices and cooking oil, there is cookware. Though the bridge toll is $4 one way to Newport, it is still a good deal.

Ocean Front View! Wyndham Inn on Long Wharf Resort
We had an amazing stay at Hamilton’s Place in Newport, Rhode Island! The location is perfect—right in the heart of town, with great restaurants like The Newport Lobster Shack just a short walk away. The amenities were top-notch, especially the pool and the convenient parking. Check-in and check-out were a breeze, and there was a convenient elevator that allowed us easy access into our room. Our room had a stunning harbor view, and we enjoyed watching the boats and seagulls with our son. The bed was super comfortable, and the air conditioning kept us cool. The bathroom was spacious and clean. Overall, we had a wonderful family getaway and would highly recommend it. Five stars!

Millie's-Historic New Bedford, 2BR, water views
We had a great six nights here. The space is super cool, well appointed with comfty beds and super soft towels, and was squeeky clean! We enjoyed the roof deck, the views to the waterfront, and the fireplace--and had an exceptional meal at Cork, too! Our stay was a combination of a work trip plus time to explore New Bedford and the SouthCoast and the location was great for both. Having a dedicated parking space was great, too. We would happily return.
