Great place to stay in Newport! Location is perfect for walking the city, but also far enough away from congested areas which was terrific. Space is clean, uncluttered, well appointed and very comfortable. Zelda’s Restaurant is on the first floor - you do not hear any noise. And the food at Zelda’s is very very good. Great bar there as well. Highly recommend both the accommodations and Zelda’s!

4.99 out of 5 average rating, 100 reviewsDowntown Waterfront Retreat with Historic Charm
Spacious, clean, and lovely apartment in great location in a beautiful town. Hosts were responsive, shower was great, and beds were comfortable, although light sleepers should know that the bedrooms are right up against the street. Loved the bike path and a lot of walk-to restaurants including SS Dion, Quito's, and Beehive Cafe.

Booked a spontaneous couple of days in Newport and so glad we found this place. It was comfortable, private, and cozy. Little things were also very appreciated - like half & half in the fridge! Brandon was super helpful but not intrusive. We’d stay again and recommend to others.

My daughter and I got to enjoy some relaxing time together in a beautiful setting.

Beautiful views of the bay in a lovely, clean, modern space. We enjoyed watching the sunrises from bed and played several of the games (scrabble, uno etc.) in the evenings. The snack and drink basket was very thoughtful and much appreciated! We stayed here while visiting our daughter at Roger Williams University. We look forward to staying here in the future. Thank you.

4.88 out of 5 average rating, 120 reviewsLarge estate with pond near beaches
Our family was seriously in need of a time out from the hustle/bustle of the daily grind. In total were 6 adults & 2 children for a 4-day trip. Our sister-in law come to visit for a day. The property is magical - it is absolutely beautiful!!! The rolling grounds are manicured and lead down to a pond area. You are surrounded by nature, but not too far from shopping or activities. We choose to stay on property and enjoy. Spent most of the time on the pond with the canoes, kayaks and firepit area. There is a wide array of outdoor items supplied for guests which was amazing. The house was amazing. Clean/pristine with everything you would need to cook/entertain for all meals. There is a space for everyone to have their own space and well as multiple common areas. Character of the house is truly amazing. We had so much fun playing cards, watching home videos, and storytelling. Just what we as a family needed. Thank you, Lynne/Robin for being great hosts. Will be back!

House and amenities were as described and more. I especially appreciated that the whole house was exceptionally clean and tidy. It was easy to find everything we needed. We felt right at home. The views off the decks are beautiful!! It’s a great neighborhood for walking or biking. And it’s only a few minutes walk to the beach. I highly recommend this property and look forward to future visits.
Home in Westport
4.78 out of 5 average rating, 238 reviewsKayak in the Westport River!
To sit on Anna's front porch, facing the Westport River on a clear, Blue Sky Day in October is pure bliss! But the entire time at Anna's Home was Wonderful! From the moment you enter into the spotlessly clean kitchen and then see the rest of the Cozy Home, you know you have found a keeper! The eclectic collection of books, paintings, prints, sayings, and figurines are wonderful with their whimsy & charm! Then a walk by the River and a visit to the nearby small store will make for a little exercise before you return to Anna's Charming Home! We had a Great Time but even in the rain & snow, Anna's cozy Home would be most Welcoming!

4.9 out of 5 average rating, 140 reviewsPerfect Waterfront Getaway with Semi-Private Beach
John’s place was a great value in the Kingstown/Newport Rhode Island area. Beautiful place with lots of amenities and a semi-private beach. You can’t beat waking up to the view. The pictures of the listing don’t do it justice! Close to great restaurants in town and also close to Newport. John was a helpful and responsive host so I recommend this place whenever you are in the Kingstown/Newport area. Also dog friendly! 100% recommend!

We went on a fishing trip with a group of 6 guys and Tylers house was everything that we expected and more. The fire pit outside was great and that is where we spent our time when we were not fishing. I would highly recommend for anyone who is traveling to Narraganset. The house is more than accomodating

A wonderful and relaxing stay in my favorite state. We were disappointed that the deck was still being repaired but we were well aware it may be when we booked. The view from the deck would have been the cherry on top of a great visit. Would definitely come back and stay with Mehdi again and again. The sunrises are priceless.

Condo in Newport
4.89 out of 5 average rating, 47 reviewsLuxury, Newport Harbor Condo with Water View
My sisters and I enjoyed a fabulous visit to Newport, RI after almost a decade of being away from New England. Coming off season was delightful - fewer crowds, happy merchants and service people, great restaurants and shops still open and available. Our condominium had private, reserved parking (two spots). The building felt safe and secure. The elevator to the top floor unit was very helpful with our luggage and belongings. Each of us enjoyed the pleasure of having our own bedrooms and bathrooms to use. Newport is very walkable. Once the car was parked in the garage, we only had to take it out once to do a scenic drive. Otherwise there was plenty of strolling, shopping and restaurants within walking distance. Starbucks was a short walk from the condo and opened at 5:30am each morning. I was the sister elected to be the early bird to walk to get coffee for the group. I felt safe and enjoyed the pre-dawn walk in the crisp, cool Fall air. Fabulous vacation, thanks!

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

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 :)
