Location was absolutely perfect and the views were gorgeous. I knew the location well and was curious how "loud" being close to the round about and Pier would be at night, and it was still quiet within the home. Would definitely stay again.

About the host

Hosted by Doug & Sandi Vanian

Host profile image
Sandi and I (Doug) got married in 1997. We lived in this beach house owned by my family for 5 years. As our family grew so did the need for additional space. We now live 10 minutes away. I'm currently CEO of the household :-) and look after the family property and my wife is a flight attendant with Alaska Airlines. We have the best of both worlds - when the property is not occupied by wonderful tenants we get to enjoy all it has to offer.

Why they chose this property

You have so many choices when it comes to finding just the right beach house for your family vacation, and we believe our Oceanfront home is in the best all-around location. Many of our guests return year after year. Truly an amazing place to retreat to and a wonderful place for kids year round. We hope that you will come stay in our beach house and enjoy what Newport has to offer.

What makes this property unique

Location! Location! Location! Nothing beats driving up and having a parking spot waiting for you. Waking up in the morning and making breakfast as you watch the crashing waves is just a little reminder that life is good.
