Wickford Waterfront 12 min to Newport & 15 min URI
Elaine’s airbnb was absolutely amazing. It was situated on the second story of their home with a separate, easy access entrance. Upon entering you are treated with a beautifully decorated, well furnished , living room with a large bay window at one end. When you get closer and look out, you are overwhelmed by a spectacular view of the Narragansett Bay. You are so close, if you listen carefully, you can hear the lapping waves. In the morning, the room is filled with the glorious morning sun. The large main bedroom is equally well decorated and has an equally beautiful view of the bay. The smaller second bedroom is fully functional but does not have the view. The apartment had a one fully functional bathroom and a small but updated well equipped kitchen with everything you needed except a dishwasher. No room. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit with Elaine and Richard and would loved to stay with them again if we return to Wickford.

Marina on the Sakonett
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.

Perfect Place
He gave great locations of things around. It was close to all the places we were visiting.

Westgate Watson House apt 2 waterfront
We loved staying in Lisel’s place. It was spotless, quaint and well equipped. The location was excellent, a few blocks from great restaurants and a short walk to the beach. The yard was amazing along a pond, so quiet and peaceful and we had are dedicated Adirondack chairs! Highly recommended!

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!

Beautiful historic house in the heart of Bristol
The place was so spacious for our group of friends for a weekend away! It was very well kept and we had an amazing stay!

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.

Waterfront Paradise on the Cove

Cozy Barrington Home with a Private Pool
This was exactly how it was described on the website. It was clean, comfy and exactly what we needed for our visit. Reina was there to greet us and show us the home once we arrived. The bed was very comfortable, the bathroom was clean and there was plenty of room for more than just the two of us. The neighborhood was quiet and very easy to walk to get fresh air and exercise. We saw many neighbors walking their dogs. I will stay here again.

Charming Waterfront Bungalow "Cove Cottage"
We had a fantastic stay in Kristin's place. It was exactly as described and shown in the photos- cute, clean, cozy and bright. The back yard has a lovely view of the cove- it was so nice having morning tea/coffee out there and being in a peaceful, beautiful setting. The neighborhood is quiet and residential. Kristin was very kind and communicative throughout our stay. I would absolutely stay here again!

Waterfront Ocean Barrington
Amazing house, right on the water and beautiful throughout. Private fire pit and outdoor shower were great touches. Maria was a very proactive and responsive host, and made us feel right at home. I would highly recommend their place to anyone.

Coastal Portsmouth Home w/ Bay Access Near Newport
Very cute cottage on the water and super quiet and peaceful! Beds were very very comfortable and kitchen had everything we needed. Spiral staircase is definitely tricky to get up and down for elderly and young kids but not a huge issue for us. Overall great little cottage and we would be back!

Downtown Bristol Seaside Cottage
Unbeatable location, you can walk to everything Bristol from this house (and we did). House is immaculate with new furniture, all comfortable and in great shape. Room sizes are perfect. Beautiful renovated full bath. Great kitchen. Easy parking. Will def go back!!!

Bristol Harbor House
A slice of heaven! Great home, super comfortable, well-appointed kitchen, very clean and well-organized. Location is fantastic and 100% walkable. Beautiful little back yard with water views and (literal) 2 min walk to Prudence Island ferry and multiple restaurants and shops. The binder on the DR table has a ton of good information and recommendations - very thoughtful! Will 100% book again, so grateful for this wonderful home to be shared!

New Bristol House -Freshly updated waterfront home
Amazing!! Highly recommend this beautifully renovated home which is right on the water with spectacular views. The home was very clean, spacious and the kitchen is fully stocked. We stayed for 5 weeks and felt right at home. We cooked lots of dinners, baked cookies & played games - the kitchen has everything! It’s a great location - close to downtown Bristol. Kara is very responsive and often checked in with us to make sure things were going well. Exceeded our expectations! Thank you Kara!

Waterfront Cottage w/ large yard & amazing views
Our stay at Palmer Cottage was delightful. We were in town for our daughter’s wedding and the cottage was exactly what we needed…..the views were spectacular and the cottage was the perfect size for the two of us. We will return often!

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
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

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.

Beautiful location right on the marina in downtown Newport! The place was wonderful and just steps from all of the restaurants and shops in Newport!

Timeshare Rental. 3rd floor Condo w/ water view
We are so pleased with our stay which has a beautiful water view! It was so nice to see all the activities and beautiful boats passing by. The condo was clean and spacious and the bed was so so comfortable! We were in the heart of the downtown and were able to walk to the many shops, restaurants and fun activities happening around us! So much to do! We absolutely loved our stay and will hope to book this again. Marc thank you for being a great host! Very easy to check in and accommodations were excellent! :)

Ocean Front View! Wyndham Inn on Long Wharf Resort
Hamilton’s place has an amazing view and very comfortable! We especially loved to sit with coffee to stare out in the morning. It had all the amenities needed for our stay. He’s also very responsive and kindly answered my questions to help my stay more comfortable. It’s also very close to downtown - highly walkable. We enjoyed the pool and grill at the resort as well. We would love to come back!
