Ocean Breeze Cottage Dog Friendly Avail Year Round
Great little spot super close to the beach!

Great for families, steps to beach, lots of space
Mel was a great host and her place is comfortable for a large group. The beach is super close and there are lots of good restaurants within a ten minute drive. I highly recommend.

2-Bedroom Ocean View Walk to Beach and Downtown
Craig and Julia's place is the cleanest, best furnished and best equipped Airbnb I've stayed in! The living room and kitchen are really roomy and the bank of windows across the living room let in wonderful light and a lovely view across the water from the second floor. Quiet and comfortable, easy check-in and check-out, responsive hosts--would definitely stay again!

Aerie, 2 king beds, large space, AC, 2 beaches!
The place was cleaned and matched the description perfectly. The host was very responsive and helpful, and the house was well-organized.

Large House, Ocean Views, 2 Kitchens/Dining Rooms
I booked this beautiful Swampscott home for my wife's 30th birthday and we couldn't have been more pleased. The house, views, and location were incredible. My wife, family, and friends couldn't stop raving about the Air BnB selection and we had the best time. The cherry on top was an amazing local restaurant at the bottom of the hill which we enjoyed almost every night. 10/10 would recommend to anyone interested in this rental. Ryan was a great host and made everything easy!

Sandy Toes | Ocean Views | Steps to Beach | Deck
We had a fantastic time at Sean's place! The house was clean, comfortable, and well-stocked. The jetted tub in the master bath was a huge plus! Sean was very responsive and checked on us to make sure we had everything we needed. We could see the ocean from the deck and enjoyed the sunrise each morning, as well as leisurely walks on the beach. There was a small market just a few minutes away where we were able to pick up some essentials, and we had a fabulous seafood dinner down the road at Markey's Lobster Pool. We would definitely stay here again!

Well Scituated
This was our 3rd year renting, and we’ve already booked for the 4th year! That pretty much says it all! It’s our favorite long weekend of the year. You will not be disappointed.

Ocean Views at Casa de Mar near Salem and Boston
We absolutely loved this place! We were able to check in an hour before regular check-in and the place was beautiful so nice and clean with lots of space. The views of the ocean were amazing. They even left us snacks and chocolate, which were a big hit for the kids! Thank you so much for letting us stay in your beautiful home. We will definitely be back!
Beachfront home rentals with a pool

Lovely 2 BR beach condo with inground pool
We had a wonderful vacation in NH especially due to the beautiful condo we stayed in. Every morning we took a short walk to the beach at sunrise. We also enjoyed sitting out on the deck overlooking the pool as well. It was a short drive to most places of interest, shops and restaurants. Our host Sue was very responsive via text. The place was clean and full of many things to help make our stay special. We’ll definitely be back in the future.

Oceanview Retreat
Zachary was very responsive and attentive to our needs which were very minimal. Very clean and well presented. Great location out of the midstream of chaos of the strip but close enough to get there. Walk to the beach short and can get a glimpse of the water from the room but would be better a floor or two up. Well furnished with all cooking supplies. Ice maker included which was a plus. Enjoyed our time. Wish we could have stayed longer!

Serenity by the Sea
Great place to stay with an awesome view of the beach right from the balcony. This is where every morning we would have our coffee to plan out our day and every evening sit back with a glass of wine and watch the moon rise over the ocean. The accommodations were good, the place was clean and had all the things to make our stay enjoyable. We would stay here again as well as recommend it to friends and family.

Hampton 100 yards to beach
Clean and good storage for a small space. Good location

Ocean View - Steps to the Beach!
We stay at Hampton Beach every year for a few days. This has by far been the best. It seemed we were at home. Copmmunication with the owner and the facility was exceptional.

Rye Motor Inn - 1BR Bungalow South - Ocean View
We enjoyed our stay so much! Perfect beach stay in the best location! They had everything and we loved the decorations ! We can't wait to visit again!!

Quiet retreat steps from the beach
We spent the week with our 3 kids at Thiffany’s place. It was easy to go to the beach by walk and we were not far from the board walk. It was a very calm place and it was very clean. We had everything we need for our vacation! Thank you Thiffany.

Oceanfront Pool. Close to Boston. Free Parking.
Beach front view, hot tub & a fire pit, hearing the waves crashing outside & seeing starry night sky was so relaxing, and exactly what we needed for our weekend getaway. John & Carol were such an amazing host and so helpful to accommodate us if needed and there was open communication which made the experience even more comfortable. Their space felt so welcoming that we wished we had a longer weekend to be able to stay an extra day or 2. Highly recommend, honestly the view of the beach was amazing, local restaurants and marketplace within minutes away (no more than 8 min), everything we needed was all there. Thank you for having such a beautiful place for us to stay♡
Private beachfront home rentals

Plum Royale: Plum Is. beachfront w/stunning views!
We had rented the house for a girls weekend and were so excited to be right on the beach. The property is great, beautiful view, and perfect for a group with an open living space for socializing. Close to all restaurants and shops - just a very short drive down the road. We rented the property off season, and unfortunately the furnace heat wasn’t working (the mini splits were!). Taylor was extremely responsive, sent someone to the house once it was clear there was an issue, and then was able to remedy quickly - since they have another property (also on the beach!) nearby. Even offering us back some of what we paid originally for the inconvenience. We are very grateful they were able solve the problem so quickly and we still had a wonderful trip with a beautiful property on the beach. I hope we can visit the original home in the future!

Beach House on a Private Beach!
Gaby’s place was an absolute gem. What gorgeous views! Our family really enjoyed the beach and paddling about the harbor as well. The house was very clean. Gaby was friendly and responsive. We plan to return in the future! Thank you Gaby!

3 Bedroom Beachfront house. Spectacular ocean view
Jeff’s place was fantastic, we enjoyed our stay, the view was excellent. The house has everything you need. We would definitely recommend a great place by the beach, lots of walking areas in Ipswich.

Beach Access|AC|Free Parking|New Listing Discount
I love how beautiful the apartment was. And the beach is right there, this would be a beautiful place to rent in the summer.

4BR Oceanfront Rockport Vacation on Long Beach!
We were only there for a couple of days, but it was a great place to stay. The views from inside were spectacular, a real advantage as it rained much of one day. We did have some rain free time and were able to walk on the path as well as on the sand. We arrived at high tide and were amazed at how much sandy beach appeared when the tide went out. Communication and instructions were excellent. We hope to get back there.

Beach Bums' House - Perfect for Families & Friends
This is an older ranch with a spacious kitchen and super comfortable beds. A beautiful beach is steps down the road. It is the first house off the highway, so you may hear traffic noise. There is a dehumidifier, which you will need to turn to the highest setting. The host is friendly and very responsive.

Beach Home - 1 Block to Beach - Bright & Spacious
Marco’s spot was a nice stopping point for us between Cape Cod and Portland. Comfy, had what we needed. Really close walk to a nice beach, we went there twice. Marco was great to talk to and recommended a wonderful restaurant nearby - had a delicious dinner there. We really liked the vibe of the area.

Steps away from Jenness Beach!
We truly loved our stay! The perfect location for families who want to be near the water. Communication was great and the house is prepared and well stocked with a cozy feel.
