About the host

Hosted by Justin

Host profile image
I am a husband and father married to my beautiful wife for over 25 years. I flew helicopters in the Marine Corps and Air Force for 27 years before my retirement. Now I am just a surfer who loves to travel. I prefer not to stay in a resort with a bunch of tourists when I travel. I like to experience a destination the way the locals do and I have always enjoyed meeting VRBO owners while traveling.

Why they chose this property

Historic, quiet, safe, sun, sand, surf. We love living in the Newport RI area, and we don’t travel much in the summer because it is so nice here. We bought our little cottage in 2023 and have enjoyed renovating it and meeting guests from all over the country. We live 3 doors down and strive to make your visit as enjoyable as possible.

What makes this property unique

The pink retro theme. We strove to keep as much of the original retro feel when we renovated the cottage. It's like going back in a time capsule to the 70's but with fast WiFi and a 50" Smart TV. The location is awesome. Close to everything and boardered on two sides by the prestigius and beautiful St George's perp school.
