Mary's By The Sea
This is the dream location — minutes walk to the beach, restaurants and shops. They have everything you need. We had our 4 month old with us and were totally comfortable.

Newly Renovated Ocean View 2 Bdrm Apt
Beautiful accommodations and views. Easy access to the city. The host was very responsive. The extra coffee was also a plus 😁 Would definitely stay again!

Waves in the Cove - includes offstreet parking
Four adults enjoyed the accommodations including ease to check in, communications with Mark and Alexandra, cleanliness of the home, location right on the water with beautiful sunrises, and wonderful walking location to all the Salem attractions. Mark and Alexandra were accommodating to my inquiry for early check-in which was very appreciated. Beds were comfortable. Shower was good water pressure and plenty of hot water. Overall, a great weekend experience at Mark and Alexandra’s home.

Rare Waterfront Luxury Penthouse|Bearskin Neck
The apartment was beautiful. Very clean, modern and new. The view from the patio can’t be beat. Walkable to shops, restaurants, beaches and a park. Rachel was very communicative. As some mentioned, the church bells are outside the bedroom window. The fan and noise machine provided did drown out the noise. That said, we would definitely return!

-> Ocean Oasis, Seaside Escape!
What a great place to stay! The area was beautiful, the place was clean and relaxing, and having the beach right out front was great! Host was awesome and responsive if we needed anything. Would love to go back again sometime!

Old Harbor
We stayed at Sarah's lovely place for three days in April. We had a great time! The location is perfect, very near shops and restaurants, and also walking distance to the performance center. We didn't get to enjoy the deck because of the weather, unfortunately. Parking is a tight squeeze, but we managed without problems. The downstairs bedroom and half bathroom are small, but they work fine. The view is amazing, and we definitely recommend it!

4 Bed 2.5 Bath Water view Downtown with Parking
Great location for our group. Lots of shops and restaurants within walking distance. Highly recommend!

2 Bedroom Beach Bungalow, Steps from the Beach!
Loved our stay here ! Very comfy and very convenient to everything. I will definitely come back !

Views over Lobster Cove! Book spring weekends
Property was just as pictured, which I find extremely important. This spot is off the beaten path and quiet with a nice little walking bridge for a stroll. Close enough by car, to all the attractions of Glouchester when your ready to get out and about.

Charming waterfront home. Patio, Shops & Dining
I can’t thank you enough for letting me stay in this beautiful location. I’ve been going through chemo treatment and trying to find beautiful places in between treatment to enjoy. This place was a fav. Which I sort of want to keep to myself. I didn’t have a lot of energy to do a lot but it was exactly what I needed. Parked my car and left it behind. Watched the tide, walked around a beautiful place with my dog. I couldn’t ask for more.

Entire Historic Home Overlooking Maritime Park
I can't say enough about this historical home, location & Julie. We absolutely loved our Thanksgiving & Birthday stay. The house was so charming and had everything we could possibly need. Julie was so nice and helpful through the whole process. Her instructions were very clear in message and inside the home. For us, the two kitties were a bonus. They were super friendly and nice to have around. We cannot thank our hosts enough for sharing their beautiful home with us. We will definitely be back!

Stay at Rocky Neck
Great location and beautiful views. We will for sure look to stay here again on any future visits to Gloucester.

Sea View Guest Suite
Bre was great! She was super responsive and was good with tips for places to go to in Salem when we asked. She also provided a manual for the stay that had tons of recommendations of things to do in and around the area. The home was exactly as it looked and was super duper cute, we also loved being able to come back from our time out and have a nice cozy place to stay.
Wonderful Rocky Neck home on Gloucester harbor
This house has an exquisite view and setting - so picturesque, one of us who’s an amateur watercolor painter sat in the sunroom one day and painted the harbor channel scene right out the large bay windows! Ray was a helpful, responsive host and the house was clean and well-appointed. A beautiful, quiet, relaxing stay!

Evensong: Lovely Oceanview Retreat with Dock
This house was perfect for two parents and two grown children to spend Christmas week. The views were amazing, the setting very peaceful. The neighbors were very nice and welcoming. (Lots of dog walkers.) The temperature throughout the house could be regulated very well. Separate thermostats for upstairs and downstairs. The TVs worked great and there was comfortable seating for our group. The bedrooms were very comfortable and the bathrooms worked great -- plenty of hot water and nice amenities. The kitchen was very well equipped for any kind of cooking. As we were leaving, my wife and I said this was probably the first AirBNB we've stayed in to which we would happily return.

Beachfront | Panoramic Views | "Oceanfront Oasis"
Had a wonderful stay. Great location right on the beach. Condo was very nice and well equipped.. Sean was a great host. Would definitely stay there again.

Bearskin Neck Rockport ★ Amazing Views ★ Parking
We loved our stay! Christina’s condo was comfortable, peaceful and perfectly located. We were walkable to the entire downtown area, museums, the concert venue, walking paths, shopping and restaurants. But the best thing was sitting outside on our private deck overlooking the harbor, with Motif #1 just across the inlet. We almost didn’t want to leave the condo…so gorgeous! And Christina is lovely, making sure we were okay, had everything we needed, so responsive. After the condo coffeemaker stopped working, she kindly offered a gift card to a nearby coffee shop, and before night fell, a new coffeemaker was delivered to the condo! Such a thoughtful host… we will be back!

2 minutes walk to Beach parking and Wi-Fi
We spent a few nights and had an amazing time right by the beach very peaceful it was great will definitely stay again

Beachfront Getaway
This is a way to truly get away. The studio was gorgeous, the bed was incredibly comfortable and having the ocean right outside was amazing. We only booked for a weekend, but I wish we had booked for a week - so amazing!! Everything was perfect!!

The Nest - The Heart of Bearskin Neck
Very nice location. Everything was great!

Oceanfront Retreat
Diane’s condo was a wonderful choice! Her place is clean and spacious and she left very clear helpful instructions for an easy stay. It comes with everything you need and anything you’d want to do in walking distance, highly recommend this spot!

Oceanfront, private balcony, panoramic view Ocean
The place was described and looked like the pictures. Nice location place was spotless,Even in the hallways and lobbies.Husband loved the snacks.(he’s a junk food junkie.) Nicely decorated and had everything we needed. We have been going to Hampton for a quick 3-4 day getaways for 35 + years and I would highly recommend this place.
