A note about fees: The Waves of Jamestown® is available for booking on the VRBO platform, select realtors and directly on its website. Every effort is made to minimize add-on fees. The cleaning fee of $140 is the actual wages paid to the cleaning crew. RI State Sales and Room tax of 8% is calculated on the combined cost of Rent plus Cleaning Fee. VRBO's Service Fee is a sliding scale and averages 10% calculated on Rent + Cleaning, but does not apply to State tax. Stays of 31 days or longer are not subject to state tax.

Dreamy stay
The waves of Jamestown is nothing short of 5 stars. Betsy is a phenomenal host and her place is beautiful and clean. She gave us a warm welcome and was very attentive throughout the duration of our stay. We enjoyed taking her little red wagon on walks to the beach, park, grocery market, and to a local pizzeria. She gave us excellent recommendations for local eateries and places to explore. With a toddler and a newborn we are a bit noisy and Betsy did not complain once. She was both gracious and generous with us. She even let my daughter feed her koi fish! I would definitely choose to stay here again.

About the host

Hosted by Betsy Gooding

Host profile image
Betsy built The Waves with a flexible layout in order to welcome guests the year around while enjoying travel of her own. She is rooted in the community and happy to steer guests to local sailing, kayaking, tennis, golf, beaches, galleries, restaurants, Newport mansions, nearby islands, and hidden gems.

Why they chose this property

Jamestown offers unsurpassed quality of life that combines small town ambience, scenic beauty and numerous enrichment activities for children. We incorporated a separate guest wing when we we built in 2010 because we love to entertain and to welcome guests to Jamestown. Location is 3 blocks from Mackerel Cove beach, on a quiet street.

What makes this property unique

Jamestown is unique on the Eastern Seaboard because of its incomparable beauty, rural character, working farms, multiple access points to Narragansett Bay, and relaxed atmosphere. As year-round residents, we enjoy walking access to fine restaurants, marinas, galleries, churches, hiking trails, town offices, an excellent public library, recreation center and business district. Newport is just 10 minutes away by car; the Jamestown Ferry is a fun way to access downtown Newport and Rose Island in summer. Jamestown offers easy access to major metropolitan areas via Route 95 and T.F. Green Airport.
