The Landing
Exceeded expectations can’t wait to return! Great spending time with grandkids and sharing all the local spots- Jim’s and skips dock and snug harbor diner- they are all still open from my childhood time- 70’s….

Barnacle Bay Beach House
It was easy to find, plenty of parking, nice backyard space, the house was as described and pictured. We felt right at home!

Zion's Light Beach Cottage
We had a great stay at this cottage- it was a perfect size for our family and was extremely clean, warm and comfortable. We especially enjoyed the quick walk to the beach, and proximity to town. Hosts were very friendly and responsive but never intrusive. Would highly recommend.

Pet-Friendly Private Beach Oceanfront Cottage A/C
We had a great stay at Elizabeth Anne's house. It was very clean and exactly as described, had everything we could need around the house. The location is great, the peaceful sound of waves cannot be beat... I am missing it now. We will definitely consider staying there again!

Old Lyme Shores Beach house! Walk to water!
Loved the house. Amazing little community with a gorgeous beach just a short walk away. Thoughtfully stocked with so many supplies, which was unexpected. Lots of seating. My partner and I agreed the beds were possibly the most comfortable we’ve slept on, ha! Would definitely stay here again.

Ridgeview Suite at Stony Creek Depot
Barbara’s place reminded me of the way airbnbs used to be. It felt like home-away-from-home. The accommodations were high quality and clean, and there were even some tasty snacks! We loved our stay. Everything was as pictured. Stony Creek was wonderful, and we look forward to visiting again next year!

Beach Haven - waterfront, near Yale, sunsets
My family and I had such a wonderful stay at this house. The house was immaculate and well stocked for our stay. Matthew and Celia are great hosts. We really appreciated the basket of snacks and dog cookies that were left for us and our fur babies (Thank you!). They truly thought of everything and it felt like “home” the entire time we were there. The views from the back deck are truly spectacular. We spent many hours sitting in the sunroom and out on the deck enjoying the sights. My pups enjoyed daily walks at the sea wall park that was steps from the house. I can’t say enough great things about our stay. Thanks to our hosts for sharing their beautiful home with me and my family.

Beach Cottage by the Sea
It was just wonderful! The house is quite old (and no one expected otherwise!), but the interior is fresh, almost all kitchen appliances and utensils are new. Lots of space, considering that the house is for two couples: a spacious kitchen, a large living room. We forgot to take a supply of coffee with us, and in another situation it would have been a disaster. But - not with Karen! The whole cabinet was filled with all kinds of supplies of tea and coffee, for every taste. I would also like to mention the pedantry with which Karen placed the little handwritten instructions-recommendations exactly where they were needed, and to the extent that they were needed. It was very nice. We had a good impression: we were expected, we were welcome. And we did our best to leave the house as clean and beautiful as we saw it when we checked in. Karen, thank you so much for your attitude to people, for the two wonderful days (and two nights ;) that we stayed with you. Larisa and Roman
Beachfront home rentals with a pool

Sun N Sound Resort, Montauk, NY
Perfect spot for a Montauk getaway. Walking distance to everything dockside has to offer, great pool and lounge chairs on the property, very simple check-in via code with the front desk. Nick was kind and communicative our whole stay. We’ll be coming back!

Gorgeous home with saltwater pool. Steps to beach!
An amazing stay overall. It was comfortable for 6 adults. Spencer was extremely helpful throughout our stay — I had lots of questions and Spencer was quickly responsive. The house itself is beautiful and has that eastern Long Island charm. The backyard had lots of space and is well maintained alongside the pool. We also enjoyed a sunset evening at the beach which is just a few steps away. It was a wonderful weekend and I am certainly looking forward to staying here in the future!

Beautiful Waterview Condo on the North Fork of LI
Mia’s place is excellent. Exactly what the listing describes and more — Mia is a great host and super attentive despite us being a last minute booking, she even helped us through a tough time late in the day when I thought my daughter’s stuffie had been picked up by the maid service. Above and beyond!

Endless Summer Studio Condo w Balcony Bayview
We really enjoyed staying at Lynn’s place! Very clean and had a great view of the ocean from the deck. Lynn was very responsive and made the experience seamless. We would definitely stay with Lynn again.

New Haven Gem w/ Private Pool, Walk to Beach!
Our group of 6 has a great time at the home! The backyard is beautiful and has plenty of seating. We didn’t get to enjoy the pool because it was a bit chilly for May, but would be GREAT in the summer! Would definitely return!

North Fork Sound Front Home with Pool
Wonderful, spacious home on a gorgeous property. We loved the easy access to the private beach and close proximity to Greenport town. The house felt so homey from the boxes of records and well appointed kitchen to the toys and books for kids. The whole family had a great time!

Condo on the Sound - Navy Beach
Tara’s place was a perfect for a weekend getaway! Close enough to town and great view of the sunset!

Private Luxury Waterfront Home
We had a wonderful time. The weather was perfect. The view of the water was everything and was accessible from nearly every room. The home was modern and easily accommodated our large group. Yet it was cozy and beautifully appointed with all the amenities you would ever want. It is ideal for children with every toy imaginable. There was a highchair and a pack and play for our toddler and child appropriate dishes. The kitchen was fully equipped and had 2 sinks, 2 dishwashers and 3 tables for dining. The beautiful pool and hot tub were in constant use. Mary is very thoughtful and assembled a ringed binder with important contacts and suggestions for dining, shopping and entertainment. Although there was no beach on the property there are nearby beaches. The towns of Guilford and (nearby) Madison are charming and well worth visiting. Mary was very accommodating and responded promptly to several inquiries.

Beautiful home walking distance to Ocean Beach
My group of friends and I thoroughly enjoyed this beautiful home for a long weekend. The home was very spacious and had plenty of room for hosting our larger group and keeping us entertained with Pool Table and Ping Pong, in addition to a grill so we could cook for ourselves with ease and a backyard for lawn games. the neighborhood is very quiet and is in close walking distance to the ocean. The master bedroom has a 2nd floor deck that has a great view of th water. The number of beds makes this place a great value with larger groups, without the need to sacrifice on comfort.

Retreat Bolton Lake
My family and I stayed at Jason's house for four days for my graduation, and it's no exaggeration to say that it was the best B&B stay we've ever had! The views throughout the house are just beautiful, and the huge floor-to-ceiling windows give you a perfect view of the lake from the moment you open the door to your room. The deck set up, and the lake amenities make this house a perfect vacation spot. The amenities were great! The grill, dishwasher, and washer were all there, and the hot tub, kayaks, and life jackets made it perfect for our lake activities. I also personally loved the special hand sanitizers in the house, they seemed to be a custom brand and smelled great! Overall, this is a very beautiful, modern house that you won't regret staying in!

Adorable Beach House on LI Sound
Had an excellent stay at Eileen’s place. The house was extremely clean and perfect size for a couple. Beautiful view and surroundings. Only wish I had more time to explore the area. Would definitely stay here again if I return.

Paradise on Pequot
A perfect long weekend getaway for my wife, 2 toddlers and infant. Relaxing and great location. The little beach access just a short walk away was amazing. Already thinking about going back.

Romantic Couples Retreat with Private Sandy Beach
Fantastic cute spot in Old Saybrook. Key things for future guests to know - there is no A/C in the winter months so the air can get a bit stale / stuffy in the house. Plus there is no washing machine / dryer in the house, so defo bring enough clothes!

Cornfield Point Beach House View
Chloe's home was perfect for our stay as we wanted to be near my son in Old Saybrook. She was responsive and accommodating with my questions and needs always getting back to me right away. Check in was easy and I received emails all along the way which was helpful as I am a first time airbnb person. The home was immaculate with everything as it said it would be. I would definitely stay again and recommend this home.

Hop Skip and a Jump to the Beach
Our first ever stay at 'Hop Skip and Jump' really met all of our expectations and needs for the week of 8/10-8/17/24! I have never in my 70+ years of spending a summer week in Old Lyme been so enveloped with 5 star luxury while at the Beach! I would recommend this rental to any small family or a group of girlfriends! Hop

Ocean front beach house in GLP
Beautiful stay in Groton! Well appointed house, lots of room for all, and gorgeous views on the waterfront. Great location and close proximity to Esker Beach & Restaurant, 10 minute drive to Mystic which was great for our 3 families over MDW
