Cape Cod Canal Home
We really felt at home and the location on the canal was superb! looking forward to future stays!

WATERFRONT PENTHOUSE OAK BLUFFS
We spent our anniversary at Leslie’s place and it was a beautiful! The views and location was like no other and we would book again! Leslie was very responsive and even left us some dinner when we came in late from the ferry. The restaurant staff were friendly and it was everything described in the listing. We didn’t want to leave!

Charming Beach Cottage with Stunning Ocean Views!!
There is one word to describe Nichole's condo - DELIGHTFUL! We were in Newport for a family wedding with an infant. We loved that we were so close to the venue on the wharf but out of the crowded streets of downtown Newport. Nichole effectively communicated that there was work being done on the balcony well in advance of our arrival and allowed us a very flexible check-in time which was so helpful traveling with a 7 month old baby. Due to inclement weather, workman came the day after our arrival. Nichole immediately communicated this to us and offered to drop off a bottle of wine. It didn't really impact our stay as we were out and about with different wedding activities. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this Air BnB!

Wickford Waterfront 12 min to Newport & 15 min URI
We loved the location overlooking the bay. Very beautiful mornings. Only a short car ride from Newport. Elaine was very helpful and offered early check in and late check out proactively - very nice of her.

Harbor view apartment, a quick walk from the ferry
Mark's place was exactly how it appeared in photos. Great, walkable location. Easy to get to restaurants on Main St. There's a place to rent bikes just across the street. The stay was comfortable, quiet, and exceeded expectations. Thank you again, Mark!

Harbor view apartment
We had a great stay! The location couldn’t be better — walking distance from all the restaurants, shops, and bars downtown. The apartment was easy to find and came with a parking spot right next to it, and it was clean and comfortable. Would definitely recommend.

Newport Studio close to Downtown and Waterfront.
Paul and Monica were wonderful hosts: responsible, kind and helpful. I’d recommend their place in a heartbeat! It was so comfy, from the shower to the bed and pillows. We also really appreciated the fruit and beverages! Thanks so much!

Beautiful Lakeside Apt between Boston and Cape Cod
2nd time staying here... we love it! Beautiful location and all the amenities to make our stay comfortable!

Ocean Breeze Cozy Cottage
This was a Perfect Beach Escape – Ideal Location The location is fantastic – just a short stroll to the beach and a quick walk to town, where you’ll find everything from cozy cafes to trendy shops and local restaurants. You can go from a lazy beach day to a shopping store. The house itself is a great. It’s beautifully decorated with a coastal vibe, filled with natural light, and impeccably clean. The layout is perfect for relaxing, with plenty of space in the living area and a fully equipped kitchen, ideal for when you want to cook up a meal. The outdoor spaces are amazing too – a spacious deck with comfortable seating, a grill, and the sound of ocean waves in the background. One of the highlights is the attention to detail. From extra beach towels to kitchen utensils and table to dine. Thank you Kadie We will definitely lobe to come back. Alma

Fabulous Waterfront! 3bdrm/2bth Kayaks & Firepit
Serene and charming riverfront hideaway. In a residential neighborhood but very quiet. You are 5-10 minutes from great restaurants, shopping, Dennis Beach but it all feels very secluded. We went kayaking every day from the private dock, saw swans, sea lions, and hawks. The space is clean, boho-chic, very comfortable beds, easy to use gas fireplaces. Primary bedroom sitting area/sunroom is dreamy for reading. Kitchen has everything you need. We thought we might miss an ocean/bay view but we didn't at all. Very reasonably priced for the quality. Meg replied to all messages within minutes. We would absolutely come back. Great for a couple or small family.

Relax & Entertain | King Beds * Sauna * Bar Shed
Very nice airbnb! We enjoyed our time here for my bachelorette trip. The beds are absolutely amazing- the most comfortable I’ve ever slept in. The place is so clean and has so many things to keep you entertained. The back yard is so cute! Would loveeee if there was a hot tub! Only thing to be mindful of is the neighbors- even though hours say quiet hours are 11 PM- 7 AM, definitely plan to be quiet earlier. The neighbors were peaking through the fence and messaged the host wayyyy later on the next day that we were being “too loud” when we were being mindful of our noise level. The host is super responsive and friendly. I definitely recommend staying here!

Modern Home w/ Pool & Game Room | Mins to Newport
This place was great, an easy drive to all the hotspots and a quiet neighborhood vibe.

Sunny beach house with beautiful ocean views.
Lovely home in Acoaxet with great water views and an excellent host.

Seaview Summit | Ocean Views, Indoor Pool, Beach
This house was spectacular. More amenities than I would have ever thought of. Gorgeous interior and exterior. The surrounding neighborhood is in need of regentrification but it’s extremely safe and quiet. Once in the home., it’s an oasis. Probably the best Airbnb I’ve stayed in (sample size about 10) Tony is extremely responsive and helpful. This was the perfect home for my daughter’s bridal party to get ready in and shoot pre wedding photos in. Also amazingly comfortable for my large family to stay in for the long weekend.

Come relax at Lakeside Landing
Everything about Tonya’s place was as advertised! The home was cozy, clean and in a beautiful setting. The kitchen was completely stocked with every pot, pan and knife you could possibly need. The lake was beautiful and the people we saw while utilizing the available kayaks were very friendly. We loved the decor or every room and would completely stay there again!!

1 of a Kind Pond-Front Home, Minutes from Downtown
The house is amazing! It has everything that you would need and is so comfortable. The property is peaceful, and it feels like you’re on your own little island while still being minutes from stores and restaurants. We had a perfect weekend celebrating some milestone birthdays in our family.
Waterfront condo accommodation

Clear Pond Pet Friendly Inn
We loved our stay. The cottage was adorable, clean, and had everything needed. The outside yard and waterfront was precious. We couldn’t have enjoyed our stay more and will absolutely stay again!

Boutique Hotel Special pricing available
We had a fantastic stay in one of Pelham’s beautiful suites. Location could not be better; within steps of Thames St. and only a mile walk to First Beach and the start of the Cliff Walk. Highly recommend!

Beachfront Town Center
Kevin's place is perfectly located in Angels Landing across from the library. It’s a quiet, safe location at night. The proximity to abundant dining and shopping options made exploring Provincetown incredibly convenient. The home was well-stocked with coffee and sweetener, which we appreciated each morning. The peaceful setting allowed for great rest after busy days exploring the town. Kevin was a thoughtful host and we'd definitely stay here again!

Recently updated 2BD with 2 Decks and Water Views
We had a wonderful stay at Brian’s place! Check in and check out was very easy and straightforward from Brian’s directions. The place was so clean and incredibly comfortable! We had everything we needed there and loved the location. It was so easy to walk to all of the restaurants and shops! We had a great stay and would love to stay again sometime!

Steps to Beach - Luxe 1BR Modern Commercial St
Great place. All the good reviews are accurate. 3 minor issues that can be fixed quickly: 1. Parking is not on site and you have to park a couple of blocks away. That should be pointed out in the description, maybe it was and I didn’t see it 2. When you first walk in, the apartment is stuffy, but it’s fine once you air it out. I think it’s the couch or couch covers 3. No detergent for the washer, so bring your own. It’s the first time I stayed at an Airbnb that didn’t provide it Everything else was great, thanks for having us!

Waterfront gem
Waterfront Gem is exactly that, a gem!! Beautiful location right on the bay. Steps away from the Boatslip yet quiet and pleasant!! Park the car and walk everywhere!! Comfortable, clean and well stocked with the essentials!! Paula is very responsive and accommodating!! I'd definitely stay again!! Thank you!!

Captain's Lodge- #1, Plymouth Water Front Condo
Great place to stay! Excellent location and walking distance to everything we were looking for. Place was comfortable and as advertised. Comfortably accommodated five adults. Scott responded quickly to all communication and provided accurate and thorough instructions. Highly recommend and will stay again if in the area!

Westend Waterfront Luxury Condo-Provincetown
We had a beautiful stay at Anil's, and would book it again. The thoughtful use of space made the interior feel expansive, and the views to the bay are inspiring from every area. The kitchen was well-appointed and we really appreciated all the storage in the bedroom loft allowing us to unpack our clothes neatly. This is a great location just after the end of all the shops and restaurants on Commercial St.-so it's quiet and mostly residential. Loved it, thanks Anil!
