Very convenient to seeing Bristol as right in centre of town with nice view over the harbor. Studio was very clean and well kept up, with good space and a sizable kitchen/eating area. Perfect for two, but we had our son on the sofa bed which also worked well. Nice little veggie garden surrounding entrance.

The studio is perfect in every way. A very comfortable bed, the kitchen had all we needed, a nice size bathroom, plenty of seating, and the ac/ceiling fan kept the temperature just right. We loved how the studio is bright and open and has a wonderful view. Our stay exceeded our expectations. Thank you Cara & Caroline!

Long weekend in Bristol

The sailor’s loft is exactly how the posting looks. It is nicely furnished and very comfortable to stay in. The location was perfect to walk to shops and restaurants in Bristol. There is also a beautiful view of the water. I would highly recommend the sailor’s loft to others.

Sailors Loft Bristol

A charming carriage house overlooking the bay offers a cozy stay in very walkable Bristol. With a beautiful garden, you’re a block from the water and all attractions. Our host Cara was responsive, and our stay was exactly what we hoped.

Wedding Weekend!

If you have any friends or loved ones getting married in Bristol this spot was absolutely perfect. Walkable to the wedding venues, several restaurants and bars, right by the water. Host was kind, communicative, and extra helpful. If we make it back to Bristol anytime soon, this is the only place we wanna stay! Larger than the pictures do justice!

Beautiful, spotless, private, gorgeous gardens to look at. Peaceful and seconds from coffee, restaurants and a beautiful waterfront park. I had to bring a mattress topper because of a back issue so I can’t comment on the bed. I will always ask to stay here when I go to RI!

“Stunning”is a bit hyperbolic

My wife and I spent three satisfactory day and nights in the loft. The furnishings are a bit austere and the bed is creaky but the location is great and the parking worked out well. It was also adequately supplied for quick meals. Overall, it was pleasant if not spectacular.

We recently stayed at this property and the description matches perfectly. However, I was not expecting to find that the owners have created a stunning garden right by our walkway with brick paths throughout. What a perfect start to our 3 days at this very spacious apartment, just a block from Narragansett Bay, viewed through the living area windows. The apartment is clean, well organized and comfortable. It is located on the main street in Bristol, with a variety of restaurants within walking distance. We were also impressed with the drivers who were incredibly courteous for everyone wanting to cross streets. This apartment is within a couple miles of Colt St. Park-a gorgeous area along the bay, about 2 miles from Blithewold Manor and its beautiful gardens and it is close to Rail Explorers, a 6-mile stretch of repurposed railway track on which you can pedal along Narragansett Bay. Lots to see and do, historic buildings, a beautiful Library and this community has to be tops nationally in celebrating America's birthday-simply incredible! The property owners are very friendly and have created a great getaway. We thank you for your hospitality.

Great spot in a lovely historic town

Very large, bright, and clean room and bathroom. Quiet location though there was a nearby event going on during our stay. Some great restaurants and real coffee right around the corner. Would definitely stay here again.
