We stay at Hampton Beach every year for a few days. This has by far been the best. It seemed we were at home. Copmmunication with the owner and the facility was exceptional.

Beautiful and quiet location. Spent a lot of time in the hot tub and the scenery of the bridge was beautiful. Night time was literally the sound of nature so if you're looking for an escape from the city, this is your place!

4.92 out of 5 average rating, 13 reviewsSunrise Beach Escape
What a great house to stay in! There was plenty of room for all 12 of us. And plenty for us to do. Fishing, hot tub, relaxing on the deck, walking down to the beach area, kayaking, paddle boating, playing board games, playing video games, pool, ping pong, air hockey, relaxing on the multiple couches watching tv or chatting, and enjoying meals around the table, which easily fit all 12 of us! The kitchen was well equipped - literally anything you could need, and lots of choices for the keurig. We only wish we could have stayed longer (we were there for a long weekend). We stayed in October so the weather was cool and it ended up raining for a lot of it, but we still enjoyed the beautiful view of the fall leaves on the pond. Would definitely recommend this house and we look forward to our next getaway on angle pond!
Apartment in Winthrop
4.96 out of 5 average rating, 225 reviewsOceanfront Pool. Close to Boston. Free Parking.
This was my first time using Airbnb and I have to say, amazing! Carol and John’s place was exactly what we needed for a quiet and peaceful weekend getaway. We were able to stargaze from the hot tub, cook a great dinner in the kitchen which had everything we needed, enjoy a comfortable and cozy night in watching movies while also having easy access to the train to go right into Boston. Carol was the best! Making sure we were comfortable and having everything we needed. We would definitely recommend to our friends and stay here again!

4.9 out of 5 average rating, 10 reviewsSteps to GOOD HARBOR BEACH!
Kate's house in Gloucester is an ideal place to experience one of the best beaches on the North Shore. Kate's home accommodated the eight of us very comfortably; the proximity to the beach was second to none and Kate and Michelle's response to a couple of minor issues we had was expeditious and friendly. There aren't enough superlatives I could use to recommend Kate's place.
Home in Scituate
4.97 out of 5 average rating, 35 reviewsLuxury Oceanfront Home! Hottub! Views! Sleeps 10!
This was the absolute perfect getaway for my partners birthday. Everything is laid out well and there are labels that help you understand what is where! Beautiful juxtaposition to the sea and in walking distance from the light house! We had such a wonderful stay. Highly recommend.

Felt like home away from home. Peaceful surroundings, amazing lake views and Christmas trees outside and inside made our stay festive. There were six of us visiting and we had a lot of space to spend time together and rest comfortably.

Apartment in Salem
5 out of 5 average rating, 107 reviews2-Bedroom Ocean View Walk to Beach and Downtown
Craig and Julia's place is the cleanest, best furnished and best equipped Airbnb I've stayed in! The living room and kitchen are really roomy and the bank of windows across the living room let in wonderful light and a lovely view across the water from the second floor. Quiet and comfortable, easy check-in and check-out, responsive hosts--would definitely stay again!
Home in Swampscott
4.82 out of 5 average rating, 22 reviewsLarge House, Ocean Views, 2 Kitchens/Dining Rooms
I booked this beautiful Swampscott home for my wife's 30th birthday and we couldn't have been more pleased. The house, views, and location were incredible. My wife, family, and friends couldn't stop raving about the Air BnB selection and we had the best time. The cherry on top was an amazing local restaurant at the bottom of the hill which we enjoyed almost every night. 10/10 would recommend to anyone interested in this rental. Ryan was a great host and made everything easy!

Home in Swampscott
4.89 out of 5 average rating, 72 reviewsOcean Views at Casa de Mar near Salem & Boston
We absolutely loved our stay! The house is the perfect location for a small group or family gathering. I wouldn’t say it’s for young children, but our kids are grown and it was perfect for the five of us. Easy access to Salem, Boston, or the lower end of New Hampshire. We walked to local restaurants for breakfast and dinner/drinks. Access to the train is within walking distance and a quick day-trip to Boston was easily achieved. Linda had the house well-equipped so you don’t need to worry about bringing anything but maybe unusual favorites. Highly-recommended!
Apartment in Hampton Beach
4.77 out of 5 average rating, 30 reviews*Walk to beach #1
Wish I would have stayed in area to enjoy it more, as it is a PERFECT location with so many things to walk to. It’s about an hour to Salem (where we went) and a few hours to Maine (we did another day) so it worked for us as a home base. Definitely will look at coming back just for this area to thoroughly enjoy. Smaller place, but was perfect for us 3 BFF’s for a long weekend getaway!!! Clean and cozy! Thank you for sharing your place!
Home in Marblehead
5 out of 5 average rating, 120 reviewsSeaside Cottage
There are no words to fully capture how perfect Hayley's Seaside Cottage is and how great of a host she is as well. The house has everything you need, it's meticulous and so cozy. The fenced in yard was a great bonus and while the house is surrounded by tall houses you never notice and it feels so private. You can't beat the location. We walked into town and took in all the beautiful sights. Quick drive to downtown Salem as well. As a host, Hayley was top notch, probably one of the best I've had on AirBNB. So responsive, helpful, and kind. We were traveling for my pup's birthday and to see family in the area - she even left Queenie Bea a special birthday treat. I can't recommend the Seaside Cottage enough! Just book it! Thank you Hayley! We can't wait to come back!

Condo in Hampton
5 out of 5 average rating, 17 reviewsLovely 2 BR beach condo with inground pool
We had a wonderful vacation in NH especially due to the beautiful condo we stayed in. Every morning we took a short walk to the beach at sunrise. We also enjoyed sitting out on the deck overlooking the pool as well. It was a short drive to most places of interest, shops and restaurants. Our host Sue was very responsive via text. The place was clean and full of many things to help make our stay special. We’ll definitely be back in the future.
Apartment in Hampton
5 out of 5 average rating, 5 reviewsOceanview Retreat
Zachary was very responsive and attentive to our needs which were very minimal. Very clean and well presented. Great location out of the midstream of chaos of the strip but close enough to get there. Walk to the beach short and can get a glimpse of the water from the room but would be better a floor or two up. Well furnished with all cooking supplies. Ice maker included which was a plus. Enjoyed our time. Wish we could have stayed longer!
Apartment in Hampton
4.81 out of 5 average rating, 16 reviewsSerenity by the Sea
Great place to stay with an awesome view of the beach right from the balcony. This is where every morning we would have our coffee to plan out our day and every evening sit back with a glass of wine and watch the moon rise over the ocean. The accommodations were good, the place was clean and had all the things to make our stay enjoyable. We would stay here again as well as recommend it to friends and family.

We spent the week with our 3 kids at Thiffany’s place. It was easy to go to the beach by walk and we were not far from the board walk. It was a very calm place and it was very clean. We had everything we need for our vacation! Thank you Thiffany.
