The property was not as shown in the photograph; we were not in a one story street level but over the garage with steps. The host was incredible with response and providing suggestions for restaurants (that all were great!). We had an outstanding experience and hope to stay here again in the future. The microwave was broken but we didn't need it except to heat up our coffee when it cooled. Such a refreshing stay with 2 blocks to the shore and the same to the nearby Lido marina with water side restaurants. Wish we didn't have to leave!

Overall the place was nice and quiet and right on the beach. We did run into a few difficulties with the owner of the place as well as some of the appliances not working and the strictness of the house. The privacy from owner to renter was a bit different than other rental properties we have stayed at. The place itself was lovely and very convenient for the area. The bikes were a great addition and it made it easy to get to places without having to pull the car out.

Great stay with friends. Comfortable beds. We were out and about most of the time but would have been comfortable being there more for a bbq or small get together. We sat on the patio, rode the bikes and parked our car in the garage, which was clutch! It was great for a group of 3. It sleeps more but could feel a little small depending on your expectations. I would stay again as the proximity to the beach and boardwalk was perfect.

This little place was really compact and nice . There were plenty of blankets. From the pictures, I thought we were renting the front of the house, but we were actually in the addition over the garage. The location was perfect . It was an easy walk to the beach, grocery store, and restaurants. I would totally stay here again.

This cottage is cute, clean and fully stocked with everything we needed. The host is friendly full of information and prompt in every way. The cool breeze through the cottage is an unexpected luxury in my opinion. The beach is so close we went back many times per day. We can’t wait to come back and stay again.

This was such a cute home close to everything , lots of beach equipment provided which was nice. It is comfortable for a small family and it was great to have designated parking ! It was well appointed and very clean. I would say maybe add a pizza cutter, fly swatter and a dust pan. Great stay overall.

Great Stay in Charming Newport Beach Cottage

We enjoyed our stay in the cottage. Communication with the host was great. All questions answered quickly. Everything was accurately described. Beds were fantastic! The living area was comfortable with an awesome recliner. Kitchen has everything you need & it was a bonus to find a pantry with staples such as spices & oils. Great water pressure in the shower. Love the outdoor front patio. Perfect for morning/afternoon sun if the beach is too windy. Location was perfect. Grocery store was a 3 minute walk. Beach 7 minutes and the Pier about 12. Having access to 4 bikes was a plus. However, they do need a little TLC. Garage was tight, but our mid-size car just fit. You definitely need a garage in Newport, especially on the weekends & during summer. Tons of beach amenities including chairs, umbrellas, toys. We didn't use them, but good to know they are there if needed. Overall the neighborhood was quiet, but a little bit of weekend noise. Our group of 4 would definitely stay in the cottage again. Thank you Linda! We will return on our next visit to Newport.
