Beachfront vacation rentals in Back Bay, Boston

Thank you Susan! Your place is absolute gem! My girlfriend & I are long-distance and we literally had 1 day to spend some Q.T. and your place was the PERFECT spot! Thank you for the check-in & check-out flexibility. We will definitely be back!

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Alex's place and highly recommend it! - Spacious, clean, well-maintained 2nd floor unit. Appreciated the balconies with view of water, bonus room with workspace, daybed and cozy electric fireplace, new full bath with nice washer/dryer, large TV, and plenty of parking for 2+ vehicles. - Family & pet friendly. - Safe, pleasant neighborhood with a local feel. Close to the beach sidewalk that stretched for miles from Winthrop Beach to Deer Island–great for scenic walks, scootering, dog walking, and beach combing. Playgrounds, parks and restaurants within walking distance. - Minor notes: Located near the airport flyover route, although we weren't bothered by the air traffic noise–it was more like the sound of the waves that came and went. We never heard the 1st floor guests and had separate entrances. - Excellent communication with the host.

We are a family of 3, travelling to Boston Marathon. We had an awesome experience staying at Cathy's place in Hull, we loved the house! We will recommend it to everyone we know back home in Sweden, and truly hope to be back one day.

We had a wonderful time in Somerset. Linda’s place is amazingly clean. Had everything we needed. Loved the view! I would stay here again.

Jody's place is beautiful and a wonderful way to experience New England. The neighborhood is extremely walkable and the place is in close proximity to Salem and many other things to see and do.

Micheal and Susan are quick to respond and resolve any minor issues that arise. The space feels like home and is comfortable spot to stay a few nights. It’s close to the ocean, and has a full kitchen allowing you to prepare meals. Look forward to staying again if in the area again in future!

We had the best time in Arlington this past week! We came for the Boston marathon. The place was beautiful and the location was perfect. It was close to Boston but far enough out for the peace and quiet. Doug and Hope were the most exceptional hosts. They were accommodating and very responsive. They went above and beyond to make our stay and everything we needed as easy as possible. They were so great and we hope to come back in the future!!

We came for marathon weekend and wanted to stay a little bit out of the city chaos. Elise’s place was perfect, right on the water and easy access to public transit to get into the city when needed. She went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed for our stay, and I can’t recommend this place enough!

We stayed here for the pool for the kids (which was open, some recent reviews said it had been closed) and the beach access. Rooms seem new and it was quiet. You can find free parking right in front or pretty close around the beach.

The property was stunning and impeccably clean, matching the description perfectly. We had a wonderful time and enjoyed the convenient location with a trail to see horses and access to the lake. The host was incredibly accommodating, and we are looking forward to returning with our family. One suggestion for improvement would be to provide garage access to the house for elderly guests who may have difficulty with stairs, as the pathway, although beautiful, was quite lengthy for my elderly parents. Nonetheless, we all had a fantastic time. Thank you.

The host was very responsive and helpful. The hotel was very nice. It was clean, decorated nicely, looked recently updated and right across the street from the beach. We went off season so not a lot going in the area but there were a few restaurants that we went to close by. I would recommend staying there and it was a little over an hour away from Logan airport.

Was extremely good everything about it was perfect

We had a great time staying here. It was raining our entire stay but the closed in porch area allowed us to still feel like we were on vacation and enjoy the view of the harbor.

Good very good 👍

We had a wonderful stay. Perfect place for families with children. So close to the beach with all the beach and home necessities you need while on vacation! Quaint town that was quiet but still has plenty of restaurants to visit. Overall, a great place!

We had a great time at this Airbnb. Kerri was very responsive and proactively notified us that it would be ready for check-in earlier than listed. The place was clean, and matched the pics. It's not a big property but it is as described. We had a guest count of 4 people and it worked out well. It's walkable to great restaurants and the beach. The view of the rear of the residence to the water is very nice when it is high-tide. When it is low-tide, you're basically looking at somewhat of a mud bog. Can't access the water from the back of the residence but we weren't planning to anyway. All-in-all very nice place to stay in Hull!

Beautiful home within a few hundred feet of the harbor. There’s a store just around the corner very walkable. The home is great remodeled and refreshed. Location is perfect. As others have mentioned the stairs which were fine for us. Amy was very responsive and proactive with communicating.

Quaint apartment in a beautiful, quiet town within minutes of popular attractions. Host was incredibly friendly and responsive, giving helpful reminders and instructions every step of the way. Would absolutely recommend this gem and the host. Would love to stay again.

Enjoyed our stay thoroughly. Peaceful and safe neighborhood. Full kitchen was a plus, made a wonderful Easter dinner with the family.

Airbnb Review: We had a fantastic stay at this Airbnb! The location was absolutely perfect, close to everything we needed, and the area was peaceful and quiet. The space was spotlessly clean and well-maintained, with thoughtful amenities that made our stay comfortable and convenient. The bedding and linens were high-quality, making for a great night’s sleep. The host was incredibly responsive and communicated quickly, ensuring a seamless check-in process and a pleasant experience overall. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a hassle-free, comfortable stay in a great location!

Diana prepared us for our stay by messaging us details before our arrival and equipped us with more than we needed for our stay! All appliances, bedding, and furniture is in pristine condition! Check in and check out instructions were easy to follow! Diana is improving her space by adding a side patio! We felt like we were at home the whole time. Parking was easy and spacious as well! We were invited to visit again! Thanks Diana for having us!!

This place was so cute and looked just like the photos. The host really thought of everything, from folding towels into bows to providing thoughtful touches like granola bars and facial tissues. It’s the little things that made it so convenient and enjoyable. Just book it—you won’t be disappointed!

My girlfriend and I came to the area to visit Salem in October. With it being such a busy time of year, this was a perfect location for our stay. Walkable location to the commuter rail and also a very short drive as well. We used both the rail and car depending on the day to navigate busy traffic and parking. The treehouse retreat was very nice and well kept, with a large kitchenette, bedroom, and living space. Would return!
