Excellent accommodations in a wonderful area! We have stayed at this property before and we hope to stay again. We highly recommend the Callender house!
We loved staying at the Callender House. Not only was it beautiful and clean, we also appreciated how centrally located it was; we walked almost everywhere during our stay. Thanks again for a great stay!
Visited Newport for a few days. This property was fantastically located. Thanks Street and all the shops/restaurants were within about a 15 minute walk so we didn't have to deal with the difficult parking. A 10 minute walk also got you to the transportation center where you could hop on the free trolley that took you down to the mansions.
The check-in process was seamless. The room was as described. The location was a short walk to downtown! Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will stay here again when we come back!
Overall we enjoyed our stay. The room was clean which is most important, and the location was great. We were a little worried when we entered the property based on the shared foyer, but once we got to the room we were happy. One thing to note is that I believe the listing we reserved from said something like full property or whole house, which is not accurate. Either way, we enjoyed our stay so thank you!
Great, quaint, charming, nautical-themed place. Place was completely updated, super clean and an short walk to Broadway and downtown Newport. Hosts were super responsive and accommodating. Great booking.
This was our second time staying here and we wiil definitely be back. James and Keverne have created a cozy little oasis for guests. I can't say enough...just don't hesitate to book...You'll actually regret it if you don't!
This was a great place to land for two nights while attending a wedding in town. It was walkable to almost everything within 25 minutes...and most things within 10-15 minutes...and some great haunts within 3-5 minutes! Bed was super comfy, bathroom was big enough to change in, and everything was well appointed. The hosts were super responsive and kind.
We loved our stay! Our room was lovely & was within walking distance to downtown. James was waiting for us when we got there & was very helpful. We will definitely stay there again. Thank you so much.
Great location and property,

The parking space was perfect.
Place was clean and comfortable.
Check in and Check out were seamless.
Hosts were very friendly and helpful.
Location is great, walking distance to many places. The room was just as listed, perfect for the 2 of us for a weekend - bed was very comfortable as well! Thanks for the hospitality.
Spent one night in Newport- this room was perfect! The bed was sooo comfy. Easy 10 min walk or $7 uber ride away from downtown. Would absolutely stay here again.
Fabulous find! Enjoyed this cozy and beautiful room. So many small details that made for a perfect oasis to retreat to after all the wedding activities. Bed was one of the most comfortable I’ve ever slept in, coffee nook had everything I love including yummy snacks, bath was devine. Nice walk or short Uber ride to get to Newport activities! Highly recommend! ⭐️
