Lovely stay, adorable town!

Sailor's Retreat was the perfect place for our weekend trip to Marblehead! The stay was so cozy and it was stocked with all the necessities! The town is so sweet and lovely! It is only a quick drive to Salem, and Boston day trips!

Adorable Apartment!

My husband and I stayed here while visiting Salem and Marblehead for a few days. We’re familiar with the area and like to stay outside the hustle and bustle of Salem (a quick Uber ride is all you need to get there!). This apartment was lovely—it’s nestled in a very walkable area and we were able to hit some local restaurants and shops with no issue. It is adorable inside! Full kitchen, good-sized bathroom and bedroom. We would definitely stay here again!

Great spot!

This is a great little apartment to stay in Marblehead. First floor, lovely bathroom with tub, renovated kitchen. Comfortable and quiet, walkable to many nice spots. Matt was always responsive to questions. Only thing that was a little unclear was that the parking spot was not actually in the driveway but about a block away. Not a big deal normally but coming with an infant it would have been helpful to know ahead of time.
