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.

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.

Downtown Waterfront Retreat with Historic Charm
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.

Waterfront Paradise on the Cove
Great Peaceful Location with well equipped water sport equipments. Perfect family Weekend Getaway stay.

Walk to the Heart of It All
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!

Water View Apartment in Historic Bristol, RI
What a magical air bnb. It was comfy, peaceful, well equipped and just so very homey. And the view is beyond words. The sunrise is literally over the water out of your window. Gorgeous! We will absolutely choose this one again when back in Rhode Island. Truly unforgettable space.

Private Waterfront Home on Narragansett Bay!
We had a perfect easter weekend stay at Jackie and Rob's place. The location is lovely, and we enjoyed the walking trail along the coast and through the park. The front porch was perfect for morning coffee and breakfast, and the backyard was our nighttime spot for conversations around the fire. The well-supplied kitchen allowed for ease at mealtime. We even had a surprise visit from a little bunny in the yard on easter morning. It is a lovely place.

The Surf Shack - Ocean Views From Every Room
Absolutely beautiful! Looks exactly like pics. Hosts were responsive and helpful. I loved how the home was decorated. One of the most beautiful places I have stayed. Amazing views. We can’t wait to return! Highly recommend! Five stars in every category.

Modern Home w/ Pool & Game Room | Mins to Newport
We had a grand time at Dan’s place!!! Clean, gorgeous and beautifully maintained! Highly recommend for a family planning a trip to Newport! Thank you Dan 😊

Kayak in the Westport River!
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!!!

Perfect Waterfront Getaway with Semi-Private Beach
Loved it all. Will definitely stay again! One of the best hosts I've had on this site.

Bristol, RI - The Seaport House, Harborside
This was a lovely home to stay in. It was clean, free of clutter and as pictured. We felt at home and it was a very walkable area. Thanks for making it easy for us and our pup to visit the area. Would definitely stay here in the future.

Oceanfront overlooking Newport Cliff Walk
We had such a good time at Kathleen’s! The location can’t be beat, the laid-back neighborhood, stunning views, and nearby beach was everything I could have hoped for. I would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Ocean Oasis with Water access
Lucy's home is beautiful and situated right by the water. Picturesque scenery. The home is very well maintained and the pictures accurately portray the home. I highly recommend this beautiful home. Lucy was also very proactive in ensuring our stay was fun and pleasant.

Boutique Hotel Special pricing available
Location is great - steps away from Thames St. It was clean and the staff are very friendly. They checked in daily to make sure we had everything we needed.

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.

Newport Onshore Resort Getaway
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! :)

Wyndham Newport Overlook | 2BR/2BA King Bed Suite
We loved our stay in Jamestown. Our unit was spacious, clean and so convenient to everywhere we wanted to visit in Rhode Island. My family and I would definitely stay here again. Oh and the view of the Newport Bridge at from our unit was so pretty. Definitely a bonus.

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!
