Marina on the Sakonett

TheresaRating, 5 stars3 months ago
Had a fabulous stay at Jennifer’s Airbnb. It was the perfect location for us to spend Christmas with our family. Easy access to highway to get anywhere in Rhode Island or nearby Massachusetts. Jennifer was very responsive to any of my questions. I would definitely book again for future trips back to visit my family.

Jennifer’s Historic Downtown Loft

JordynRating, 5 stars3 days ago
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 Crows Nest - 1747 Isaac Pierce House 2nd Floor

JillRating, 5 stars4 months ago
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.

Downtown Waterfront Retreat with Historic Charm

AmyRating, 5 stars6 months ago
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.

Walk to the Heart of It All

ChelseaRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Cozy, comfortable, perfect location for exploring the "cottages" and the cliff walk. Was also quiet and residential, though just a few minutes from restaurants and the main touristy street. We didn't have a car and didn't feel we were missing out. Also, as others have said, the bed was so comfortable - I'm already thinking about going back!! And the chocolates and tea were such a lovely touch!

Peaceful Water Views with Relaxing Nautical Theme

Frida WuRating, 5 stars1 week ago
What a lovely stay! We love how the room was kept and the all the thoughtful stuffs Wendy prepared for us -- really made the stay more comfortable and felt like home:) We enjoyed the beautiful surroundings, and it was an easy drive to Newport and Providence. The weather was not so good during those days, but we will come back when the summer arrives :) Thanks again for the help from the kind host for looking for our forgotten hats!! Though we did not have the luck to find them, they would stay somewhere to be a connection between us and the place!

Large estate with pond near beaches

SaraRating, 5 stars4 months ago
This was a fabulous destination! We were looking for a big place to have a special anniversary party weekend with extended family, and this house had everything we needed. Plenty of bedrooms upstairs and first floor, many common gathering areas, large kitchen and dining room tables, and lots of Space. (And this doesn't even include the explorable property outside.) The dozens of photos in the listing were very helpful, as well as the detailed descriptions. We had specific needs for elderly relatives with disabilities, and owner Lynne was so responsive in her replies to my many messages with varied questions. Truly, Lynne, you deserve a gold star from Airbnb for promptness and offering up ways and help that made our stay both easier and fulfilling.

Historic Waterfront Home on the Sakonnet River

RavenRating, 5 stars7 months ago
This place was so lovely! My mom and I had a lovely calm, relaxing vacation here! We cooked and ordered in and watched the boats on the water and took out the paddle board! Super easy to get it in the water and it was calm and easy to paddle up and down the river. I even saw a young sea turtle which was unbelievably special! Our host was communicative and accommodating and had great recommendations! I was able to walk to a local coffee shop that was excellent and very cute and another close by that have fun bubble teas and great breakfast food. Highly recommend!

Kayak in the Westport River!

MichelleRating, 5 stars5 months ago
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!!!

Bristol, RI - The Seaport House, Harborside

KimberleyRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We had a fabulous stay at Karen’s beautiful home! It was so well located and convenient to all the things that we wanted to do. The state park and the bike path are better than we could’ve imagined! The town of Bristol is a dream and the surrounding areas are full of gems and surprises. The house was lovely and everything in it was spotless, well thought out and made us feel right at home. All the appliances worked beautifully, the beds were extremely comfortable and the showers were hot with good water pressure! We can’t fault anything, the only low point was that we had to leave! We look so forward to returning to this beautiful area and to this lovely home with a kind, considerate and very fun host! She’s my new travel buddy! Thanks Karen, everything was great and it made for a very special birthday for my best friend. I really appreciated that.😊

We loved our stay with our friends! It was so nice to have separate spaces from the family we traveled with but the perfect outdoor space and location made it easy to spend time together. We had a blast and the surrounding neighborhood was quiet and lovely. We would totally come back here!

Boutique Hotel Special pricing available

NikkiRating, 5 stars1 week ago
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!

August Newport Inn on Long Wharf, Waterfront Unit

Excellent unit with great view of the harbor. The unit and the inn itself is very clean and smells very fresh. The rooftop deck gives an amazing view of the sunset over the harbor. There is adequate/free parking at the inn as well as at the sister resort across the street. Walking distance from great restaurants and shopping complexes. Gary was quickly responsive to all my questions and provided excellent details for check ins etc. Would definitely recommend staying here.

Endeavour's Quarters in heart of historic Newport

KathyRating, 5 stars6 months ago
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

Wyndham Inn on the Harbor Harbor View Suite

ThomasRating, 5 stars7 months ago
Our stay at Paul's place in Newport was great. The property was as described with a beautiful view of the harbor. There was some wear and tear in the unit, but no more than one would expect of a place that gets a lot of use. I thought it was clean and was set up well for my wife and me. The location was perfect with many restaurants, shops and sights to see within walking distance. We enjoyed the use of the rooftop deck on several occasions, to see the sunset or to enjoy a cocktail before heading out to dinner. If we head back to Newport someday, I will definitely rent this unit again, if available.
A view of waterfront buildings reflects in the calm waters of the harbor. The structures, varying in height and design, feature a mix of stone and wood materials, with a collection of boats docked nearby. Soft light enhances the serene atmosphere of the scene.
