Relaxing weekend away at beautiful waterfront home

Charming & Comfy Home in Bristol

The house was perfect for our long weekend visit with our son at RWU. Comfy beds, gorgeous views and short walk to Bristol’s shops and restaurants. Not to mention the host is quick to respond to any questions and went above and beyond in getting my mother’s iPad she left behind back to us. Would definitely stay again!

Excellent House On The Water - Highly Recommend

This house was excellent. We came up for the weekend for Brown U festivities. It was perfect for our family - three bedrooms, a spacious living area, and a wonderful kitchen. Best of all, a wonderful view of the water (both from inside the house and from the backporch/yard). We were able to park our rental car. The house was very comfortable and clean, and the owner was very helpful and easy to reach/respond as needed. Excellent place!

Beautiful, well-stocked home in an excellent location

We enjoyed a restful and rejuvenating extended weekend with friends at this home and would absolutely rent again & recommend the property & host. The location was in easy walking distance to many shops, bakeries, and restaurants. The water view from the back porch was mesmerizing. The house was clean, beautifully decorated and had everything a renter could possibly want. The host went above and beyond and did everything in his power to make our stay comfortable.

Spoiled

What a treat! Every detail was on point. Cozy, comfortable, clean and welcoming. The rocking chairs on the back porch made for great people/boat watching. The biking/walking path kept the burning of calories high, making room for all of the delicious food in town. Several places in Bristol were rented this weekend. While all were nice, My choice was voted #1! Highly recommend!

Girls trip

This is a beautiful home- the bedrooms are comfortable and spacious. The property is immaculately clean. The kitchen has everything you need to cook at home meals- pots/pans, olive oil, basic spices etc. The Wi-Fi is fast and there is a dedicated workspace with a great view (If you have to work!) We loved sitting outside and watching the sunset. The location cannot be beat! It’s walking distance to great restaurants, shops and bars. The host was very accommodating and communicative. I highly recommend this property!

Graduation Trip

We booked this wonderful property for my daughter’s graduation from Roger Williams University. We loved our time here. It was located close to town, walking distance to all the restaurants, bars, coffee shops, etc. The view is beautiful! Coffee on the porch looking at all the boats was a lovely treat. The house is very well stocked with all linens and everything you could need in the kitchen. The house was SPOTLESS! My daughter even commented that the windows sparkled. We had 6 people and there was plenty of room with my daughter and her boyfriend joining us for meals. The owner was very kind, accommodating, and accessible. I would 1000% stay here again.

This place was adorable! The decor was so perfect. The entire place was well equipped, like going to a friend’s home. It is so very clean and I am very particular. The bedrooms are large and comfy. The kitchen is amazing!! The location is perfect. The bike and running path is right across the street. My husband even biked to Providence. The view is lovely, nice place for a sunset cocktail right on the porch. And then a quick walk to many restaurants and shops. The host is amazing and responsive, even though we had no problems, he was willing to help in anyway he could. I am excited to book again!

Short Stay in Bristol

This property was absolutely perfect for our trip to Rhode Island! It provided plenty of room for my husband and I, along with our two teen daughters and my mother-in-law. The location was amazing; walking distance to wonderful restaurants, coffee shops and ice cream parlors and about half-way between Providence and Newport where we had planned to do some sight seeing. The house was clean, beautifully decorated and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We especially loved sitting on the porch to enjoy the view and walking along the bike path that is right outside the door. Jontay was a fabulous host! We would definitely stay in this home again!

We had an amazing time staying in this VRBO in beautiful Bristol RI. THIS house is BEAUTIFUL! The moment you walk in you are greeted by the coastal design and the breathtaking water views. The home is warm and inviting and it is easy to make yourself at home in this seaside retreat. We enjoyed exploring Bristol, neighboring Warren, and ventured over to Newport Vineyards (all short drives away). But honestly, you never need to leave this lovely home. Our favorite weekend moments were spent making coffee in the pretty kitchen and then lingering on the front porch enjoying the view and visiting with our company. It was so fun to watch the boats go by, to watch the RWU sail team practice, and seagull watch . What a peaceful view. We also hopped on the walking/bike trail and enjoyed long walks on the harbor, popped into local shops and ate at some of the wonderful Bristol eateries. We had a party of 6 and the house was perfect for all of us to enjoy, yet we each had our own beautifully decorated rooms for retreating to. We loved this house and our entire stay, and will be back! Thank you Jontay! You are a wonderful host!
