Amazing location

This stay was amazing! Perfect location to take the train to Salem and great hikes in the area. The home was immaculately clean and cozy. It was perfect for our group of 4 to home base for our long weekend. The town is adorable and our host was great at communicating! 10/10 would stay again!

Delighted with our stay at Serendipity Suites

This was a very good choice as it happens. The accommodation was lovely, everything we needed and spotlessly clean. The beds were very comfortable and we enjoyed our four nights here very much. Christine and Andre responded really quickly to any queries. We’d definitely book again if we came to the area x

Relaxing get-away

We thoroughly enjoyed our 5-day stay in Manchester-by-the-Sea. The property is conveniently located walkable to town and a bit longer walk to the beach. Short drives will also get you to nearby beaches and other points of interest. The property has relaxing spaces for sitting as a group inside and out and everything was clean and welcoming. We appreciated the thoughtful touches welcoming us to Manchester-by-the-Sea and responsiveness of the owners. Thank you!

Big birthday surprise

My two youngest daughters and I came to Manchester by the sea to surprise my oldest daughter for her 40th birthday. We enjoyed the house and having a space to rest and relax. The chocolate chip cookies were delicious! Christine was very accommodating with our request to check in a couple of hours early.

Cozy Apartment

Check in was super easy. Communication with Christine was great. The apartment was below their home which we did not know at time of booking. Even though we wanted to be a bit louder and blast our music, the place was super comfortable and we enjoyed every minute of it. Thanks again. Go Bills

Warm and welcoming

after a long flight with two kids, we showed up at serenity suite to such a clean quaint home and couldn’t have felt more welcomed! there were fresh flowers, wine and cookies awaiting and our favorite music playing. The indoor and outdoor living spaces were so inviting and and beds were so comfy- the perfect place to rest after fun and active days walking to town and swimming at beautiful singing sands beach. Christine was so responsive, friendly and helpful every step of the way. We couldn’t have been happier and will certainly return next time we visit Manchester.

Lovely little place in a cute neighborhood

Plenty of room for the three of us (could easily have 4). LR and kitchen are roomy, bathroom is compact, bedrooms are good. Master bed was a little soft but not too bad. Lots of TV options (we had an issue finding a channel we wanted but the owner came down and fixed it). We didn't do any cooking but there appeared to be plenty of stuff available to do so. Owner was easy to deal with and very responsive. It's walking distance to some food and stores. Some of the instructions could stand to be updated a bit but that's a nit. I would certainly recommend this place and would consider using it again if we're in that area in the future.

Thank you for a wonderful stay! My parents enjoyed their time in your home and found it to be very clean and convenient with a seamless checkin and checkout process. While we didn't have a chance to meet with Christine in person, she checked in regularly through email and was very responsive with our questions and request for late checkout. Thanks again!
