About the host
Hosted by Aida and Jim
As a couple, we love to travel the world and discover new places. With Covid-19 and the arrival of our twin boys, we slowed down a bit, but we haven't stopped. This Newport house has been our alternative to traveling Europe or other parts of the world and we are so happy to share it with others.
Why they chose this property
The space
We bought this house as a summer place to raise our twin boys. We looked for a while until we found this perfect home. We are very happy with the generous space, the 4 bedrooms, the back yard and above all, the location. As big travelers ourselves, we are happy to open our home to others like us, who appreciate a good get together with family and friends.
This house has been on Airbnb for a while but has just been relisted from us as new owners. See last picture showing ~5 star reviews from prior listing which we continue to improve on.

What makes this property unique
This house is full of history and character. A true quintessential Newport style house, with a lot of charm and great location. Steps to downtown action and shops but yet, a quiet home with parking and a backyard.
