Mystical Ocean View in Historic Stonington Borough

JanetRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
This was possibly the coolest Airbnb I have ever stayed in- the details of this place make you feel like you’re someplace truly special. Sam was amazingly responsive. The descriptions are accurate- that 3rd story spiral staircase is no joke - regardless, I was very comfortable and absolutely loved the setting. Will be back!

Mystic River Getaway - Walk To Downtown & Seaport!

ChristinaRating, 5 stars5 days ago
We thoroughly enjoyed our week at this charming home. The location truly is perfect - we walked over to the Seaport one day and took many walks into the downtown area for shopping, meals at amazingly good restaurants, ice cream, and bake shops. Anthony and Kelly were wonderful hosts - the home was just as described and their communication was clear and friendly- just what you want from hosts. We couldn't have asked for more and would be happy to stay here again.

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!

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!

Estuary Riverfront close to beaches and town

GuidoRating, 5 stars4 months ago
Joe was extremely helpful and flexible both at check-in and checkout. The house is very clean and comfortable , we were 4 and our small dog. It is situated on a very quiet street.The backyard is great , it leads to a river that you can paddle (in season, we were there for thanksgiving). The house is an easy 25 minutes from Newport , you will need a car to do things in the area. The driveway easily accommodates 2 cars. We will probably come back, but in the warmer months!

PRIVATE BEACH: A SLICE OF HEAVEN @ NIANTIC

CarolineRating, 5 stars1 week ago
A fantastic beach house in a wonderful, quiet location, just a twenty-minute walk from all the town’s amenities and restaurants. The house itself offered substantial accommodation across both floors and was exactly as the owner described. Our only small recommendation would be for the owner to provide some blankets around the house. During our stay, the outside temperature dropped as low as 35°F, and although the house has heating, the open-plan living area could get a little chilly. Other than that, we all thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would certainly recommend this property to any family looking to stay in Niantic.

Ocean Oasis with Water access

JaneRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Gorgeous views, spotless home, comfy beds - we had the perfect stay at Lucy’s home. Our grandsons enjoyed breakfast on the deck, watching ducks and boats. After a full day of exploring Newport, we enjoyed a peaceful cocktail on the deck, watching the moon glimmer off the water. Lucy was attentive and checked in with us to make sure all was well. She gave us great suggestions for local dining. I highly recommend staying here - we are sure to return!

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!
A well-lit bedroom features a spacious bed with a blue accent pillow. Large windows provide a view of Newport Harbor and boats on the water. Sheer curtains allow natural light to fill the room, complemented by neutral-toned walls and a plush carpet.

August Newport Inn on Long Wharf, Waterfront Unit

AnthonetteRating, 5 stars68 months ago
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

Gorgeous Luxury Apartment Across from Beach

StephenRating, 5 stars7 months ago
We stayed the week after Labor Day, when everything shuts down for the season. That was the perfect time to be there for us because we wanted a quiet place away. It would NOT be quiet during peak season, but you couldn't find a better location to walk over to Scarborough Beach. The deck was our favorite part: the view, lounge chairs, the wall making it somewhat private to the street. We were not there in the heat of the summer, so we didn't use the window AC unit. The ceiling fan in the main room, and ocean breezes, kept things very comfortable. Not sure how the AC would work in heat, it's in the middle of the space, but in the hallway connecting the bedroom to the front room. Things to be aware of: the view comes from the 2nd floor, so you will have to go up a flight of stairs to a platform to the 3 units. The bedroom is above the main door, so you will hear people going in and out. The unit very spacious. Bright, comfortable, beautiful sunrises.
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.

King Bed - hot tub - saunas - 1 mile Mohegan Sun

RoshiniRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
This villa is a perfect spot for a weekend getaway. Though in a condo complex, the villa itself felt private. The villa is just a few minutes walk from the clubhouse, which has a jacuzzi and pool (open in summers), and the Norwich Inn. We did not get to go to the clubhouse, but the Inn had a great spa and restaurants. The villa is also a 5 minute drive from Mohegan Sun and is accessible via Uber. The fireplace made the villa very cozy. Would definitely stay again!
