About this property

This is an adorable, vintage, beach cottage surrounded by flowering gardens. It is clean and comfortable with two small bedrooms. There is a gas fireplace, hardwood floors, ceiling fans, window AC unit, full bathroom and kitchen. You will be charmed by this place, it is as sweet as the photos look.

****Please note this cottage is small and best for two adults or a family with two younger children. It will be tight for four adults for more than a couple of days. There is very limited closet/storage space.
****One queen bed. One bunk bed with a double futon on the bottom and a twin on top. *****Full kitchen for cooking in but there is not a dishwasher or garbage disposal.

The cottage has a private deck surrounded by flowering perennial beds and a large, shared yard - great for kids. Located on a quiet side street and only a short walk to Newport's Eastons Beach (a.k.a. First Beach). First Beach has public facilities and a snack bar well known for it's lobster rolls. Along with the beach, restaurants, coffee and ice-cream shops and a new local brew taproom are within walking distance. Downtown Newport is only 1.5 miles away. The location is best for those looking for a quiet vacation, close to but away from the hustle and bustle of downtown Newport. No parties or late night noise.

Sheets and towels provided by a linen service. Due to delivery times, guests will likely need to make up their own beds.

This is one of four cottages known as Beach Garden Cottages. Have some friends or family stay next door! See other cottages at VRBO.com ID #s 104164 (1 bedroom), # 112204 (2 bedroom) or #113650 (3 bedroom).

The cottages share a parking area, a large grassy yard, an outdoor "after-beach" shower and a coin-op washer and dryer. However, your space will feel private due to the creative landscaping.

Great Time!

Cute place and great location-walkable to several restaurants, the beach, the Cliff Walk. Thanks to the owners who have beach towels, chairs and boogie boards to use while on vaca. The only shortfall is the lack of an ac window unit in the bedrooms. It would help with keeping the place cooler and sleeping at night.

Bunny sanctuary!

What a lovely and peaceful setting. It was quiet, with beautiful foliage, creating privacy from the other cottages, as well as a pretty backdrop. Several rabbits hopped and darted around the grassy yard. We had three adult women there. Instead of sleeping on the top bunk, I slept on the couch, which was very comfortable for my 5’2” frame. The location was ideal- 5 min or less to Newport, the Cliff Walk, and the mansion tours. Blithewold (a favorite of the trip), was also close by- approx. 30 min. away. Owners were quickly responsive to questions. We highly recommend this cottage!

Perfect weather Great house and location

Family of five - we had fun and a pleasant stay great weather great location a mile from Newport - nice clean house and very supportive informative owners to assist. With family of five thought house might be small but no issue at all - one bath a couple times jammed but easily managed. We successfully cooked there a few times on our week long stay. Great vacation for us. Thank you.

Relaxing family getaway

We had a nice few days in Newport in this lovely cottage. The location was perfect -- easy walk to two beaches and quiet at night. Wish the weather was more cooperative but we had a good couple of days. Thanks!

About the host

Hosted by Paul & Trish Onofrio

Why they chose this property

Trisha grew up in the Newport area and Paul grew up near the coast in Connecticut. We bought this 'fixer-upper' in 1997 and having been hosting vacationers since. We take great pride in having created a unique vacation spot for so many of our returning renters and look forward to meeting new renters every year.

What makes this property unique

Paul's gardens are what all our renters comment on and make our place special. When you walk through the gate, behind the hedge, the landscaping will charm you. Seashell paths, arbors, roses, hydrangeas, daisies, blueberry bushes, covered decks, butterflies, birds and more create a serene and unforgettable place to relax and unwind.
