Beautiful home close to all the action on the Penninsula
We stayed for a week in July 2024 as a group with adults and teenage children.
The house was larger than we expected! Over 3000 sq feet which is not typical for this area. The common areas (kitchen, dining, and loounge areas) felt large and spacious for our big group. All bedrooms have en suite bathrooms (a huge perk) as well as an additional half bath on the ground level.
As mentioned in another review, the 'bunk room' is more of a loft space above the kitchen. So if you have babies or adults who need quiet/dark sleeping space this might be an issue. However, we had teenagers occupying this space which has a queen over queen bunk bed and two twin daybeds so it was perfect for them. This room is also separated from the other bedrooms by the outdoor patio so we enjoyed that as well.
There was an ample supply of bikes (not all in great working condition but there are rentals close by if needed), new beach chairs, towels, and beach toys in the garage.
Only negatives would be 1) the "no music outside at any time" signs on both balconies (this may be a Newport rule but seems silly for responsible adults who are not looking for raucous parties), 2) older/stained carpeting and 3) that the ice maker/water dispenser in fridge weren't working. None of these were a big deal to us so we did not contact the host to address.
All in all we loved our stay here and would recommend the house to others looking for a classic beach vacation with all of the comforts of home! We'll be back!!
