Beautiful Beach Front Vacation Spot
This place was as expected and advertised. Very Spacious! All the comforts you would expect from an elite VRBO! Would definitely stay here again. The beach was so close and not too busy for June in Newport. The hot tub on the rooftop was especially nice to relax in and watch the sunset.

Fun Family Reunion
We rented both the A & B properties. Three generations of our family from CT, MS, TX and CA, ages 17 months to 80 years old gathered for four days of fun! The properties were very clean and well stocked. Eddie, the property manager, was great and very responsive. The 3rd floor rooftop area was perfect for sunsets, hot tubbing and BBQ-ing! Wish we could have stayed longer.

Burial at Sea
Five families came from all over the country for celebration of life. Some of the guests were in and out, most of us stayed there the entire time the house, condition, beach gear and furnishings were excellent! Obviously being a couple hundred feet from the beach was delightful. Everything worked in accordance with our expectations. We had a couple of minor issues and it was taken care of immediately. Our family could not have had a better experience. Thank you!

Just what we were looking for!
We loved now near the beach was, truly just past one house to the sand. The extras were great! including: lots of beach towels, outside rinse-off shower, a good selection of beach toys, boards and a sand wagon. We did the buy-out so we also had three garage spaces, plus a dedicated space on the side of the house. We had a great time!

Beautiful biome, terrific location
Had a wonderful experience recently hosting our team here for a team bonding event/ celebration of 15 years in practice. The home was lovely and well cared for overall! Great amenities in garage for the beach, which was fabulous. We were a group of 16, where we were able to use all the beds and no sofa beds. But had our group been bigger, we would have had to use the sofa beds. The only thing I’d suggest is some good candles or air fresheners of some sort before arrival as the home smelled quite musty. Overall, a great spot that I would use again for a similar sized group!
