The home was provided exactly as detailed, clean, bright and in excellent condition. Location wise, it’s perfect. Walking distance to town and the beaches and a 10 min car ride to downtown Newport.Although there is suffice drive way parking for most vehicles, our full size crew cab pickup truck did take a bit of finesse.We’d happily stay here again

So happy you and your family enjoyed the cottage. We would welcome you back anytime! 🧜🏼♀️
This was a lovely cottage close to most everything that we wanted to do - with our limited time. Lovely sunsets from the deck or even better was a short walk to the beach. We didn’t use the fully equipped kitchen except for AM coffee. We were there for a great niece’s wedding & it was the prefect place for us to relax/sleep between our numerous activities. Thank you for offering this cozy cottage.

An idyllic location that was walkable to the beach and cute cafes/ restaurants— and for long walkers like me, I was able to go to the seaport every morning, too! It was wonderful for a group stay and highly recommend.
We loved our stay at this perfect beach cottage. It was very comfortable with great attention to detail. A short walk to the beach and restaurants only makes it better.

My family loved our stay at the Mermaid Cottage! The proximity to the beach is great. Traffic can be a bit heavy getting in and out of Newport town, especially on a holiday weekend. Lots of room for families, the spacious basement was used as well. Overall I’d recommend the cottage to anyone looking to visit the area.

So glad you enjoyed your stay and found the cottage with all you needed for your time in Newport. Hope you come back to stay again!
This house was perfect for our group of 5 people, although it easily sleeps more than that. The house had everything we were looking for and the highlight was the beautiful back deck!
