    “This roomy apartment has everything you need: good kitchen, enough comfortable seating in the living and dining rooms, smart TV and WiFi. Great location for seeing the Gilded Age houses and Cliff Walk.”

    “Location was wonderful. So, so close to everything yet in such a quiet residential section. The roughly 15+ stairs heading up to the entrance door 2nd floor, was not as easy as it looked! (we are not in our 20's anymore!) Also, the heatwave...”

Great location, cleanliness and exeptional amenities are some of our strongest traits. This new, spotless apartment is located in a desirable part of the city, in walking distance to downtown, beaches, mansions, restaurants, the harbor and Fort Adams! Fully equipped for a wonderful vacation! Central air & laundry in unit! 2 bedrooms, equipped with luxurious bedding, a spacious open living room with a beautifully updated kitchen and a large bathroom.
We live in Newport, RI with our two adorable (and crazy) kids and an equally crazy and adorable pup:) Traveling is our biggest passion and we hope to discover some beautiful places through our experience with Booking . We are also hosts of a wonderful Newport apartment and we hope we can make your stay exceptional! The apartment is located in a desirable part of the city, in walking distance to downtown, beaches, mansions, restaurants, the harbor and Fort Adams! Fully equipped for a wonderful Newport vacation! Central air and laundry in unit! 2 bedrooms, both equipped with luxurious bedding, a spacious open living room with a beautifully updated kitchen and a large bathroom. We would love to make your Newport stay exceptional. We are available 24/7 if our guests need anything, but you will not interact with us otherwise.
Located in the Fifth Ward, a desirable, family - oriented residential neighborhood on the south of the city. Just steps away from Thames Street, about 15 min walk to the harbor, downtown, Newport mansions and beautiful, local beaches. 2-3 min car ride to Fort Adams with its summer events and beautiful views! Short walk to the picturesque King Park with the view on Newport Bridge and where you can enjoy relaxing summer concert series, walking paths, a small beach, paddle boarding and other summer sports, kids playground and more. Thames Street is just a few steps down the road, that's where you can find a lot of restaurants, shops and bars and where the night life starts. We are also located very close to the beginning of the famous Ocean Drive! About 20 min walk to the Cliff Walk, another "must-see" Newport attraction. It is easy to get around by just walking or riding a bike but there's also public transportation available nearby and the Uber service works extremely quickly.
