Cape Cod Canal Home
You could not select a better location than this, with access to the Cape, beaches, and the Canal road for biking and walking. The apartment is modern and immaculate with a nice deck on which to relax. To top it off you could not find more pleasant hosts than Diane and Barry. We will surely visit again!

Charming Beach Cottage with Stunning Ocean Views!!
We loved our weekend getaway at Nichole’s place :) She was proactive and made sure we had everything we needed. The condo was clean and worked for the five of us. Would definitely stay here again.

Mystical Ocean View in Historic Stonington Borough
This was possibly the coolest Airbnb I have ever stayed in- the details of this place make you feel like you’re someplace truly special. Sam was amazingly responsive. The descriptions are accurate- that 3rd story spiral staircase is no joke - regardless, I was very comfortable and absolutely loved the setting. Will be back!

☀️ Spacious and Bright -- The Sailboat Suite
This was my 6th year staying with Carolyn, in 3 different units. Carolyn is professional, and accommodating. I love the decorations, but the apartment is not cluttered, but the details are thoughtfully provided. Onset is my hometown so I am not impartial about the location. She responds promptly to questions and needs and checks in but does not hover. Carolyn is an excellent host and I am always happy to support her business.

Jennifer’s Historic Downtown Loft
The apartment was beautiful and clean. From the directions Jennifer gave us, we were able to find and get into the apartment easily. Also, it was a great location. It was about maybe a 7–10 minute walk to all the restaurants and the downtown area, and we were really close to the College Hill area. Nonetheless, I would highly recommend this place and definitely rebook!

The location on the Harbor w/ prkng
Location Location Location worth repeating. Just a flight of stairs up to a cute apartment. Everything you need for an enjoyable Newport getaway.

The Crows Nest - 1747 Isaac Pierce House 2nd Floor
We had a very comfortable relaxed stay! The space was clean and well equipped. The beds were soooo comfortable as was all the living room furniture! Craig was very responsive and accommodating to our schedule. We lived the location and made two visits to the close by Big Red slide and walked the beach! So close! I highly recommend this place and can’t wait to return.

One Bedroom in-law near beach with breakfast
I had an incredible experience staying at Monica and TJ’s place! From the moment I arrived, everything was seamless. The check-in process was smooth, and the home was exactly as described—clean, cozy, and beautifully decorated. The location was perfect, making it easy to explore the area. The host was incredibly accommodating and responsive, ensuring I had everything I needed throughout my stay. The little touches, like [mention any standout amenities, e.g., complimentary snacks, extra towels, a well-stocked kitchen], made the experience even better. I would highly recommend this Airbnb to anyone looking for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. I’ll definitely be booking again in the future!

gorgeous waterfront cottage w/4kayaks and 2 SUPs
This place is magical! Melissa was a wonderful host and it is so clear she has put so much heart into the decoration of the cottage and its surrounding area! Thank you Melissa for our assistance and kindness! We’ll definitely be back!

Estuary Riverfront close to beaches and town
Joe was extremely helpful and flexible both at check-in and checkout. The house is very clean and comfortable , we were 4 and our small dog. It is situated on a very quiet street.The backyard is great , it leads to a river that you can paddle (in season, we were there for thanksgiving). The house is an easy 25 minutes from Newport , you will need a car to do things in the area. The driveway easily accommodates 2 cars. We will probably come back, but in the warmer months!

Amazing View Water Front Near Newport & Bristol RI
Joseph was a wonderful host . Very responsive and friendly, helpful. The house was in a very quiet neighborhood overlooking the water with a beautiful reflection of the sunrise and a beautiful sunset. Small private beach . Nice coffee and cheese shop two miles away with a few fabulous shops. We were there to relax and that's exactly what we did !! Thank you Joseph

Peaceful waterfront home, large deck, 4 bedrooms
I highly recommend this beautiful home for your next stay. It had a spectacular view and the house was very well maintained and furnished. This home was conveniently located and felt very private at the same time.

Island Park Waterfront Cottage
This was a perfect spot to get my little family together for my son’s graduation! Great location, nicely updated, gorgeous setting. Kelly was responsive and helpful!

Waterfront Secluded Home with Dock
I would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a comfortable and enjoyable stay.

Peaceful waterfront home with dock/ hot tub
We stayed at this home with a group of five people and the home fit everyone great. The view from the home of the marsh is beautiful and we spent Saturday hanging out on the dock. It is really peaceful and we had an amazing time. Michele was a pleasure to work with and was very accommodating with being flexible for check in and check out times. Thank you again!

Ocean Oasis with Water access
Gorgeous views, spotless home, comfy beds - we had the perfect stay at Lucy’s home. Our grandsons enjoyed breakfast on the deck, watching ducks and boats. After a full day of exploring Newport, we enjoyed a peaceful cocktail on the deck, watching the moon glimmer off the water. Lucy was attentive and checked in with us to make sure all was well. She gave us great suggestions for local dining. I highly recommend staying here - we are sure to return!

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
This was our first trip with our 10 month old baby and it was everything we could have hoped for. The location is amazing, walkable to everything. The hosts were so responsive. Literally would respond within 2 minutes of texting. They had a pack n play and high chair ready for us in the apartment when we got there. They also let us check in a bit early so that our baby could take her afternoon nap on time. They gave great recommendations on places to eat and things to do. 10/10 would recommend to anyone!

Modern Beachfront Condo, Great Views and Location!
Beautiful place with cozy, beachy decor. We loved the location right on the beach with an incredible view! We could walk around town. The place was perfect and we would definitely stay there again!

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.

Recently updated 2BD with 2 Decks and Water Views
Brian’s place was a lovely stay! Extremely clean, beautiful and comfortable. Many thoughtful touches throughout the home and a well stocked kitchen for any cooking. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again!

Steps to Beach - Luxe Modern Commercial St Condo
Chris’s place was exactly as described and depicted. Immaculately clean and very comfortable. Great location…..just steps to all of our favorite spots! Chris was also very responsive…. we hope to return again sometime!

Captain's Lodge- #1, Plymouth Water Front Condo
Great space, close walk to all the places we needed to go. Loved the open layout of the kitchen and living room areas, awesome to lounge around during our downtimes. Bathrooms fit our needs and beds were comfortable. Nice and thoughtful amenities such as the Dove body soap and toothpaste. TV cable was much appreciated as well as the electric piano! Thanks for a great stay, would book again.

Westend Waterfront Luxury Condo-Provincetown
Staying at Anil’s condo on the water was a little slice of heaven! It was just as depicted in the photos, but more charming in real life. We especially loved the art that adorned the walls and shelves, and being able to see the water from every vantage point (upstairs and downstairs) was magical. (And what a genius idea to make the kitchen backsplash a mirror, so even when you’re back is turned to the water, you can still see it :) Honestly being there off/pre-season made it even more special, as we felt like we had the neighborhood to ourselves, whilst there were still several great restaurants open for dining out. We’ve stayed in several Airbnb’s over the years, but this place topped the charts. We’ll be going back there in our minds for sure, and hopefully in real life, too!
