Summer Rentals

Rhode Island has a wide variety of seasonal summer rental properties available for you and your family to come and enjoy the wonderful vacation amenities that our State has to offer. Whether you want a beach cottage, a house in the middle of downtown Newport or a quiet place in the country we have a wide selection of properties that are available for complete season rentals or by the week. In general we do not cater for rentals less than a week so if you are in town for a wedding or a special event we suggest you contact one of the local B&B’s to meet your needs and links to those sites can be found in our Local Links section.

Below is a summary of our standard Summer Rental Reservation Policies but please be aware that individual owners may also have their own particular requirements so please check with one of our specialist summer rental agents for the area you are interested in and the particular property you want. A written summary for each property is available upon request.
