Downtown Harbor View
Summary: Enjoy this Downtown Newport Home featuring a fabulous rooftop deck with sweeping views of the harbor and Newport Bridge. Other highlights include 5 large bedrooms and 5 bathrooms, hardwood floors, updated kitchen and refined interiors throughout. Each bedroom includes a king bed, with two offering en suite baths. Steps from the waterfront and surrounded by more than 100 bars and restaurants, this home offers a rare opportunity to stay and play in one of Newport’s most dynamic, walkable neighborhoods.
The Space: Rising above the surrounding rooftops, the private deck captures an expansive harbor view with the bridge in the distance - an unforgettable backdrop from morning through night. Whether you’re gathering at golden hour or savoring a quiet start to the day, the setting brings a sense of ease and presence that defines the stay.
Inside, hardwood floors and considered finishes bring warmth and clarity to each space. The kitchen is outfitted with granite countertops, full-size appliances, and everything needed to prepare meals, host takeout from one of the area’s hot spots, or stock the essentials for a weekend in. Furnishings are comfortable and well curated, with spaces that move easily from one moment to the next.
Five king bedrooms are arranged across two levels, offering flexibility for families or groups. Two include en suite baths, while the remaining bedrooms each have a dedicated full bath nearby. The layout supports both time together and the ability to retreat without compromise.
With the harbor just steps away and Newport’s best known streets at your doorstep, this location puts you at the center of it all. Spend the day exploring local shops, art galleries, and outdoor cafés, then head to Bowen’s Wharf for a sunset cruise or fresh oysters by the water. Walk the Cliff Walk, tour the Bellevue mansions, catch a set at a local jazz bar, or browse the farmers market at Newport Vineyards. Everything is within reach - and ends above it all, with a view you won’t forget.
Guest Access: Enjoy full private access to the entire home, outdoor living area, and driveway. We have everything you need for a seamless and enjoyable stay.
The Neighborhood: Aquidneck Island is a coastal enclave known for its scenic charm, historic character, and approachable scale. With most streets limited to 25 mph, the island maintains a calm, family-friendly atmosphere that encourages unhurried exploration. Its intimate size makes it easy to navigate, offering a quiet rhythm that reflects the essence of seaside New England.
Getting Around: Getting around is easy and enjoyable. Most of our homes are located in residential areas where you can walk, bike, ride a scooter, or rent a golf cart to explore. The islands are relatively small, and with a 25 mph speed limit on most streets, the area stays safe, family-friendly, and relaxed.
Other Things to Note: We provide dedicated driveway parking for up to 4 vehicles. Please note that parking on the street is not permitted and subject to ticketing and towing. To avoid any issues, kindly use only the driveway on the right side of the house and limit vehicles to 4.
Interaction with Guests: We live right down the street! Please do not hesitate to give us a call or text if you need anything. Otherwise, we like to give our guests their own space to relax and enjoy their stay.

We were on a girls weekend, and we liked the layout and decor / colors of the house. The bedrooms and full baths were great for our needs. We loved the roof deck, even though we only got 2 of 3 sunsets due to the Nor'ester. The kitchen glassware, utensils and such were numerous enough for our needs. The house was cleanly, although the staircase carpet likely is due for annual cleaning. The location is central and walkable to the sights, with parking. Overall, we were very satisfied and would recommend for 8 guests. The house provided us a great space to enjoy the company of our group.

The location couldn’t be better—right in the heart of Newport, with shops, restaurants, and attractions just steps away. The team at STAY Newport was fantastic—always available and quick to respond to any questions or small issues that came up.The house itself is lovely, spacious, and very comfortable for our group of 8. One thing to note when booking: one of the bedrooms is a pass-through to another, so it may affect sleeping arrangements depending on your group. Overall, we really enjoyed our time here!
