Charming Beach Cottage with Stunning Ocean Views!!
There is one word to describe Nichole's condo - DELIGHTFUL! We were in Newport for a family wedding with an infant. We loved that we were so close to the venue on the wharf but out of the crowded streets of downtown Newport. Nichole effectively communicated that there was work being done on the balcony well in advance of our arrival and allowed us a very flexible check-in time which was so helpful traveling with a 7 month old baby. Due to inclement weather, workman came the day after our arrival. Nichole immediately communicated this to us and offered to drop off a bottle of wine. It didn't really impact our stay as we were out and about with different wedding activities. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this Air BnB!

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.

The location on the Harbor w/ prkng
Jay was an excellent host for my four-day stay. The location, cleanliness, parking convenience, and homey feeling all five star for the value. Liked Best: Very quiet, clean, lots of space, feather bed resulted in good deep sleep. Next time: I will know where the AC remote is without having to bother Jay. blessings and thanks, Doug / Dallas

Newport Studio close to Downtown and Waterfront.
We had a great MDW at Paul’s apartment. It was in a perfect location — walkable to Thames St. but also in a quiet area near King Park with beautiful water views and a great playground for our little one. Ideal location to start 10 mile drive and easy access to the Breakers and other mansions. The apartment is clean and neat and the fireplace was cozy for cooler temperatures at night. Of note, there are only sheer curtains on the windows and apartment gets very bright when the sun rises early. Paul has sleep masks in the closet and you may very well need them if you don’t want to wake up at sunrise!

One Bedroom in-law near beach with breakfast
Monica & TJ’s listing is exactly as pictured and described. It is spotless and well appointed. The extra little touches such as quality shampoo, conditioner, shower gel (not Wally World brand), snacks, and of course the pastries upon check in- are so nice. These things tell me that they care about their guests and their experience. Great binder on the “How to use” + suggestions of things to do, restaurants, etc. Very helpful! The best part was how close to the beach this rental is! 100% would stay here again; experience to value ratio = A+ !

Beautiful Lakeside Apt between Boston and Cape Cod
We had a wonderful time !!! Dave and Diana are great hosts everything was better than expected. They let us know that the apartment was ready for an early check in ( we really appreciated that) Such a comfortable home with a beautiful view!!!! The home is stocked with everything you could possibly need. It was so easy living there we didn't want to leave. We were in the area to visit our grandchildren and having them over to the lake was perfect!!! God blessed us with beautiful weather and the house was stocked with beach towels, bug spray , sunscreen and snacks. Kudos Diana for thinking of everything👍 The grandchildren give the place a 5 star review and are calling it " our lake house" We only wish 😃 Thank you for sharing this wonderful place we hope to return again.

Walk to the Heart of It All
Brandon was a wonderful host and his place was great! He frequently checked in throughout the weekend to make sure everything was okay. The treats and wine on the counter were such a nice touch. Thank you for a great stay, we will definitely be back!

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!

Luxury waterfront home with breathtaking views
We came for our son's graduation in Providence, and Thomas’s place was perfect for our stay. Traveling with three generations, it was nice to have a spacious, comfortable home base where we could all unwind after long, exciting days. The house was spotless, exactly as pictured. The views were beautiful, the neighborhood was quiet and charming, and everything about the home made us feel relaxed and welcome. We highly recommend staying here if you’re visiting the area, and we hope to return for another visit soon!

Peaceful Water Views with a Happy Nautical Theme
This is the third year we’ve come to Wendy’s place to celebrate my sister’s birthday weekend and it was fabulous, as always! Wendy made everything perfect for us and the beach and restaurants were amazing. Can’t wait for next year!

Lakefront House Boston, Plymouth, Cape Cod
Absolutely beautiful views & setting overlooking the water. We loved our short, but very lovely stay here. The kids (and us!) loved the finished downstairs area w/ bedroom and bathroom!

Modern Home w/ Pool & Game Room | Mins to Newport
The house was wonderful and in a great location. Communication was clear with the hosts. Only feedback we would give was having more items in the kitchen like sheet pans, Tupperware, something to wipe the counters down, etc.

Shorebreak Cottage
This was a comfortable and great place to stay in Rhode Island!!!

Kayak in the Westport River!
Absolutely LOVE staying at Anna’s home that she graciously shares! Her home is like coming to your favorite aunts house while she is out of town and you just get to chill out and enjoy the area!! Quiet and peaceful, yet close enough to what I’ll call the “mall area” that has everything usually around a mall. Definitely check out The Head Landing Country Store for their coffee and DELICIOUS home baked goodies!!!

Perfect Waterfront Getaway with Semi-Private Beach
Very nice location and beautiful view of the ocean. The house was incredible and I would go back again.

Come relax at Lakeside Landing
Great location, everything was as advertised in the pictures. Definitely would recommend.

Clear Pond Pet Friendly Inn
Friendly host! Allowed us to bring our 4 little dogs! Hard to find a host that will allow this. Clean and peaceful property.

Boutique Hotel Special pricing available
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

Newport Oceanfront Resorts
Andrew was great to work with. He was very responsive. I would rent from him again. The unit was really nice and in a great location! Beautiful views from the balcony. The furniture was modern and the unit was very private...only 2 units on the floor. *There were 3-5 of us at a time (depending on the night) staying there very comfortably for my daughter's wedding weekend. On the morning of my daughter's wedding, we had the girls getting ready there for a few hours. We had enough room to move around :) I hope to rent there again for a relaxing get away :)

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.

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!
