They have thought of everything in this house! Stunning home, compelling decor with so much visual interest within the home! Super cozy and also spacious! Perfect location to shops and food and the water. Gorgeous property and hot tub was so enjoyable on a cold morning. Easy in and easy out. We did not want to leave!!

This was one the best homes we have ever rented. It is immaculate, wonderfully decorated, well stocked and perfectly appointed. It’s roomy and cozy at the same time. Charming with all modern comforts. There were 6 of us and we were all comfortable. All of the mattress (even the Murphy bed) were amazing. It’s very close to restaurants and shops. Niantic is a charming seaside townMarkus and Mike were so communicative and helpful. It was really wonderful. 100/10 Can't wait to go back!

Absolutely beautiful! So glad we booked!I cannot say enough wonderful things about this property! I will admit, I was a little hesitant to book because it only had one review, but I am SO glad I took the chance! This place absolutely exceeded our expectations!From the moment we walked in, we were blown away by how beautifully decorated everything was. Every little detail was so thoughtfully put together, making the entire place feel warm, cozy, and incredibly inviting. It was truly one of those places that looks amazing in pictures but is even better in person!You can tell how much love and care went into creating this space. The charm, character, and attention to detail were absolutely incredible. It felt like such a special little home away from home.Our stay in Niantic was wonderful, and this beautiful property made our trip even more memorable. If you’re like me and hesitating because there aren’t many reviews yet, don’t let that stop you! This place is an absolute gem, and I’m so happy we found it!We would stay here again in a heartbeat!
