Loved our stay here and would most definitely return! Quiet neighborhood retreat with lots of lovely & comfortable space and all you need to stay put, but, also conveniently located to explore in any direction!
We had a wonderful family trip here, the owners are great - excellent communication - and clearly take great pride in their home: it was clean, well updated, and overall a very easy and comfortable stay!
The property couldnât have been better. Included beach pass to 2 great beaches. Convenient to everything. Really enjoyed the beach with the grand kids.
We have stayed in RI for 5+ years and have been enjoying the area for many years before that. Bart and Deb made this stay comfortable and easy for our family. Beach pass was so helpful and appreciated. Home was comfortable and beautiful! We will def rent again!
We are a family of two 70-somethings, two forty-somethings and a wonderful (nearly) two-year old girl. While she slept and napped comfortably (in a pack and play) on the (quiet) first floor, her parents and grandparents slept upstairs. The house worked perfectly for us.
The Costello house was truly lovely and comfortable. Well decorated, spacious, warm and inviting, we loved it from the moment we arrived. We loved the comfortable couches and chairs at the end of a long day, and all the accommodations were just what we needed. We stayed for 2 nights but could have stayed for the week. Our host Deb was wonderful and available as we needed. Thank you to Deb for the great weekend we had at her special home.
The house was perfect. Light, bright and airy. As we went in the winter we were thrilled to find everything we needed to roast, boast and toast. Beds are super comfortable. Lots of hot water. Excellent proximity to Newport, Narragansett and Westerly.
This lovely house was such a sanctuary of peace. Not only house itself- the soothing colors and charming decor - but the neighborhood was lovely and quiet as well. My husband and I kept commenting how happy we were that we'd chosen that house...
The house was very nice and well stocked. Super clean and up to date. Deb was a great host and replied quick with any questions we had. We spent the weekend walking on the beaches and eating at the different restaurants. Our son goes to URI so we were up there to spend the holiday with him. The closeness of the house to the school and all kinds of sights and things to do was perfect. Would definitely rent here again
Over the years, weâve rented quite a few vacation homes that didnât quite live up to the promise of their photos. The Costello House in Charlestown, however, far exceeded our expectations. Everything about it was beautifully done, from the incredibly comfortable beds to the wonderful gathering areas with inviting seating that made relaxing a true pleasure. The deck is great for enjoying the outdoors and offered the use of a very nice grill as well. Given that our trip was a reunion of sorts with my sister and her husband, whom we hadnât seen in two years, it was simply the perfect place.
When we werenât catching up, we were exploring and spent quite a few days at the nearby beaches, specifically Charlestown and Blue Shutters for which our hosts provided passes. Our favorite was Blue Shutters for its protection on windy days and its pavilion which offered very clean bathrooms and changing areas.
We had a marvelous meal at the Breachway Grill and highly recommend it. Being covid cautious we appreciated the available outdoor seating. There is also a wonderful small grocery, Charlestown Mini Super, only a few minutes from the house. Donât let its looks from the outside fool you. Aside from a wide selection of foodstuffs, condiments, and the usual things (in small sizes) that you look for on vacation, the Seafood/Deli/and Butcher counter was a wonder. Very fresh fish, wide choice of cold cuts and cheese, and prime offerings of beef, chicken, and pork. It made it easy to prepare several delicious meals. Donât miss the bakery counter on your way out!
All in all, I would return to the Costello house any time we decide on another Rhode Island trip. We left feeling rested and renewed, and just a little sad at having to leave. Donât pass up the chance to rent this property, but please leave us a week or two for next year!
Clean and beautifully decorated home in quiet, safe and convenient location. Owner is a pleasure to work with and really keeps the home in great shape. Looking forward to booking next summer!
A perfect summer vacation for the family! Close to beaches, ice cream shops, kayak center, shops. Great neighborhood for riding bikes, going for walks, and the house is beautiful, comfortable and spacious. Deb was also very helpful with recommendations and always quick to respond. A truly spectacular vacation!
Their home was clean, comfortable, located close to beaches and I would definitely recommend it to anyone who would like to vacation in Charlestown RI. It was a memorable trip as the country states and towns are reopening.
