Rustic Retreat,unique home, minutes to Newport, RI
Stayed here one night with our two small kids and we felt right at home. Such a cute, rustic vibe. You can tell the owners have put a lot of thought into the place. Had access to everything we needed. The power went out briefly due to an issue in town and they were super responsive, ready to hook up the generator if needed. They were also flexible with check out, which helped us a lot. Would definitely stay here again if in the Newport area!

Beach Front Cottage in Bristol
Christine’s place was the perfect getaway for quiet relaxation. Coffee in the morning by the water can’t be beat. Meals on the patio enjoying the amazing view. The place was immaculate and comfortable. Everything you need was there. Location, view, and comfort. A slice of heaven. Christine was always very responsive and kind in her communication. Hope to return soon.

Hilltop - Coastal Getaway near beaches and Newport
We had a wonderful week at this airbnb. The unit was clean, comfortable, and the check in/out instructions clear and easy. Close to everything in Newport, Middletown restaurants, and a reasonable drive to other RI towns. Highly recommend and will definitely consider returning if we are in the area in the future.

Heart of Newport RI, Studio
Great place to stay for a weekend. Room was comfortable and clean. Convenient walk to restaurants around Newport.

2 Decks for Entertaining, 3 Levels of Living Space
The location was great. The place was very large and comfortable. Each bedroom had a huge bed, and its own bathroom. The mattresses were so comfortable, and the showers were amazing. The space was set up well for visiting, with lots of lovely outdoor spaces, and indoors the ability to hook up to a speaker with bluetooth. Full amenities in the kitchen were great for an extended visit. It was well decorated, clean, and very welcoming. Such a great place - one of the best airbnbs I've stayed at. A little expensive, but well worth it!

Two-bedroom Hideaway in Downtown Newport!
Great location in walking distance to downtown Newport. We were in town for a wedding and the price was much more reasonable than all of the hotels in the area. The space was clean and Sam was extremely responsive and friendly. We would recommend staying here!

Jolee Cottage, near Newport, Narragansett, Beaches
We needed a quiet night away and this was the PERFECT getaway. It was my birthday weekend and Jolee left a wonderful card mentioning such. Such a sweet gesture. The views!! From both windows facing driveway you could see the bridge as well as all the boats. All restaurants were within walking distance and did not disappoint for our quick stay. HIGHLY recommend this listing and we cannot wait to frequent. Thank you Jolee!

Newport home rentals

Newport Cottage
Great location, lovely home! Everything was clean and super cute. Hostess was amazing and super helpful, location was super close to everything. Loves staying here!

Beach rental home
The house was perfect to stay at for a wedding weekend. Close enough to walk to second beach for those that don’t mind a short walk on a busy road. The house had everything we needed and more and was extremely spacious and private.

Easton's Beach House
David’s home was exactly as described. The house has obviously been taken care of. The house was homey and very clean. The location was very close to Bowen’s Wharf.

The Newport Cottage.Perfect Location/Comfort/Style
Spent an amazing long weekend together with friends and family at the Newport Cottage and absolutely loved our stay!!! Hope to come back again

Steps from Beach and Minutes to Downtown!
Amazing place to stay! Super close to beaches and downtown Newport. House was spotless and comes with all the necessary amenities for a family vacation. Would definitely recommend!

Stunning Waterfront Cottage with Big Yard & Dock!
It was a very relaxing home surrounded by beautiful waterfront wildlife( a pair of swans and other birds ) and views. It was well worth the stay and I would like to stay there again and I would recommend it to family and friends in the future.

Waterfront Secluded Home with Dock
I hate to say too many great things since I kind of feel like I want to keep this a secret. This is our second time staying here. The location is awesome — spectacular views from any of the many windows in this contemporary style house. The beds are decent and there’s lots of beach stuff (chairs, towels, umbrella) plus kayaks w/life vests. Well equipped kitchen and good size dining room table. And did I mention the views?… of course I did, but it’s worth mentioning again! A great beach about a mile away. Dining choices are limited now because of the tragic fire at the Matunuck Oyster Bar a few nights before our arrival. Our host was kind enough to send us an email prior to our arrival to inform us of this sad event. We had reservations there for our first night at the house. Since we are pretty casual, the food at Captain Jack’s and Jim’s Dock is decent… but sure missed Matunuck Oyster Bar and our hearts go out to all the staff as the busy summer season was about to begin.

Ideal Location - Family Friendly - KING BED -
We had a fantastic stay at Cape Newport for a wedding weekend! The home was spotless, and had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing stay! The location was perfect—just a short drive to downtown Newport and close to the wedding venue, which made everything so easy. Our host was responsive, friendly, and made check-in a breeze. You can tell they truly care about creating a great guest experience. Highly recommend this spot for anyone visiting Newport—whether for a wedding, a weekend getaway, or just to explore the area. We’d definitely stay here again!
Newport condo rentals

Mon Reve Cottage Suite by PVDBNBs (2 bed, 1 bath)
This apartment was exactly as we hoped! Excellent location on the east side. The place has so much character and was comfortable for all. Had everything we needed for a wonderful weekend.

Condo in heart of downtown Newport! Steps to All!
David's place provided the perfect location in town to walk out the door and be steps away from everything. Even though you are so close to the restaurants, shops and bars there was minimal outside noise. We did experience some noise from the apartment above us (which was completely put of David's control as he doesnt own the property above) he was quick to contact the owner of the property to help rectify the situation. A very responsive host. We would definitely stay at David's place again.

🏡🏡🤩😍 Beautiful apartment perfect location.💎💜
Host was responsive and helpful, instructions were clear. The apartment was clean and very nice, we enjoyed eating dinner on the porch. It was easy to drive to downtown Providence and Gillette Stadium. It was easy to get to and a lot of space for parking (we all arrived mostly separately and there was space to park all 3 cars). Also, we were all very impressed by the shower and the water pressure lol. A great location and great Airbnb!! I would def recommend this spot and would come back! 😊

Historic Downtown Arcade Condo
This place was great! It was wonderful to stay in such a historic building. The apartment was very clean and tidy, the check-in/check-out instructions were very easy, and the host also provided suggestions for nearby restaurants. I definitely recommend this place!

~"Old Barbershop" Thames Condo+Parking!
We rented Kathi's place for our girls trip to Newport! It was plenty big and spacious to comfortably accommodate our group of 5. The best part is the prime location! Couldn't have asked for a better one - the Bodhi spa is right across the street, good restaurants that we could just walk to, plenty of shopping on the street. Kathi was always very responsive and even gave us early check-in, which we truly appreciated. Having free parking is a bonus on Thames St, you know if you have ever been to Newport! Overall we all had a fabulous time. Thanks Kathi.

Modern Downtown Condo!
Alex’s place was a great stay to recharge and relax after the long days we had last week. I would highly recommended this place for anyone popping through New Bedford, or staying for a few days! The airbnb was spotless and quiet and clean. I will be renting here again when I need somewhere to stay when I’m back in New Bedford! Also very close to downtown all the coffee shops, and restaurants! Quiet neighborhood.

Beach Escape. Walk to Beautiful Beaches
I highly recommend staying here as a home away from home retreat! Our stay was relaxing and cozy with a peaceful view of the water. We’re already looking forward to our next visit!

Downtown PVD Loft FREE garage parking
We stayed for a semester while I worked at ICERM. The room and location were perfect!

Your guide to Newport
All About Newport
On the southern tip of Aquidneck Island in Rhode Island Sound, Newport is famous for its scenic landscapes, rich sailing history, and renowned music scene. Located southeast of Providence, Newport is easily reachable from Boston and New York City. Its yacht-filled harbor has played host to the world’s oldest and most famous sailing competition over the years, and the town is also the site of Naval Station Newport, a crucial Navy training center housing the United States Naval War College, and the Naval Undersea Warfare Center.
In downtown, 18th-century clapboard houses line the narrow streets, whereas Bellevue Avenue is home to Gilded Age mansions, some of which have become museums. Several public and private beaches welcome visitors, with Easton Beach being the most popular for swimming and kite-surfing. Just outside of town, you’ll find picturesque vineyards offering wine tasting and alfresco dining. And to the north, Colt State Park offers walking paths, playing fields, and an open-air chapel.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Newport
Like many New England towns, Newport's weather can vary throughout the year. Summers are pleasant with warm temperatures, sunny days, and an abundance of events to keep you busy, including the city’s world-renowned folk and jazz festivals and international tennis tournament in July. As temperatures cool, fall foliage is on full display in late September, early October. Enjoy a scenic drive to take in the colors. While winters are cold and snowy, it may be the best time to enjoy your Newport vacation rental and a cozy dinner at one of the local vineyards. May brings warmer temperatures, drier weather, and delicious oysters and chowders from local growers and vendors at the annual Newport Oyster & Chowder Festival.
