We always enjoy staying here! This was our third year back and we have already booked for next summer! This spot has everything we need for a long weekend stay and we enjoy our time here so much.
This stay was amazing! Perfect location to take the train to Salem and great hikes in the area. The home was immaculately clean and cozy. It was perfect for our group of 4 to home base for our long weekend. The town is adorable and our host was great at communicating! 10/10 would stay again!
We thoroughly enjoyed our 5-day stay in Manchester-by-the-Sea. The property is conveniently located walkable to town and a bit longer walk to the beach. Short drives will also get you to nearby beaches and other points of interest. The property has relaxing spaces for sitting as a group inside and out and everything was clean and welcoming. We appreciated the thoughtful touches welcoming us to Manchester-by-the-Sea and responsiveness of the owners. Thank you!
Everything was clean and seemed new. Did not realize it was a basement apartment, but with the dehumidifier and air conditioning on all the time the air smelled fine.
My two youngest daughters and I came to Manchester by the sea to surprise my oldest daughter for her 40th birthday. We enjoyed the house and having a space to rest and relax. The chocolate chip cookies were delicious!
Christine was very accommodating with our request to check in a couple of hours early.
Check in was super easy. Communication with Christine was great. The apartment was below their home which we did not know at time of booking. Even though we wanted to be a bit louder and blast our music, the place was super comfortable and we enjoyed every minute of it. Thanks again. Go Bills
Plenty of room for the three of us (could easily have 4). LR and kitchen are roomy, bathroom is compact, bedrooms are good. Master bed was a little soft but not too bad. Lots of TV options (we had an issue finding a channel we wanted but the owner came down and fixed it). We didn't do any cooking but there appeared to be plenty of stuff available to do so. Owner was easy to deal with and very responsive. It's walking distance to some food and stores. Some of the instructions could stand to be updated a bit but that's a nit. I would certainly recommend this place and would consider using it again if we're in that area in the future.
after a long flight with two kids, we showed up at serenity suite to such a clean quaint home and couldnât have felt more welcomed! there were fresh flowers, wine and cookies awaiting and our favorite music playing. The indoor and outdoor living spaces were so inviting and and beds were so comfy- the perfect place to rest after fun and active days walking to town and swimming at beautiful singing sands beach. Christine was so responsive, friendly and helpful every step of the way. We couldnât have been happier and will certainly return next time we visit Manchester.
This was a very good choice as it happens. The accommodation was lovely, everything we needed and spotlessly clean. The beds were very comfortable and we enjoyed our four nights here very much. Christine and Andre responded really quickly to any queries. Weâd definitely book again if we came to the area x
A cute little get away perfect for our visit to the area! Host was super sweet. Everything was clean and wonderful. Couldnât have asked for a better experience!
Thank you for a wonderful stay! My parents enjoyed their time in your home and found it to be very clean and convenient with a seamless checkin and checkout process. While we didn't have a chance to meet with Christine in person, she checked in regularly through email and was very responsive with our questions and request for late checkout. Thanks again!
Well appointed and cozy place near fabulous Manchester-by-the-Sea. Enjoy super easy access to the train which takes you to Boston and then retreat to the beautiful area in the well appointed apt. Apartment was very clean with a well stocked kitchen. The Host, Christine, was wonderful in helping us with an important overnight delivery. Thank you for everything.
Apt. was decorated with holiday cheer, kitchen fully stocked to cook if needed, comfy living space. Comfy beds, plushy towels; all in all, a grand visit. Thank you
Hi there, We are the hosts at Serendipity Suite. My name is Christine and my husband is Andre. We live upstairs from the unit so we are readily available to assist you in any way we can.
This property is very special to me because it is the house that I grew up in and the house that we raised our children in. Our children are sixth generation in Manchester by the Sea. Serendipity Suite was always a year round rental apartment and we decided because I love to entertain and host that we would try our hand at making it a vacation rental.
My favorite part about my home is that we live in a wonderful neighborhood and it is within walking distance to beautiful Singing Beach. At night if the breeze is right you can smell and taste the salt air right outside the door. Some nights you can actually hear the waves. We are less than a mile walk from downtown, restaurants, shops and the harbor. We know you will fall in love with Manchester by the Sea just like we did many years ago.
