This home is a spectacular home with all the amenities. Our family enjoyed it so much we are hoping to return for the 2023 summer family time. Thank you again for sharing your beautiful home.

Imagine a fully updated cottage in a highly contested yet quiet neighborhood just a short walking distance from the beach... With a responsive host... Can't ask for more.

Great Place. Could not expect any better. Host was fantastic

If you like an uncomplicated rental, with an older beach house vibe, then this is the place. One block from the private beach and near the fishing village of Galilee.

Relaxing week at the beach

We had a great week at the cottage. Tom was very attentive. We loved the short walk to the beach, bike rides and walks around the neighborhood. Great place to stay!

We loved our stay, spent all day on the beach and cooked out with family each night at the house. Kids had a blast and the house worked out great. Highly recommend!

Enjoyed a relaxing week in this comfortable, clean beach cottage. The living space was ample. Beds quite comfortable. Washer/dryer, outdoor shower and two AC's were welcome percs. Just a quick walk to the private beach and amazing sunsets, yet we could hear the ocean while sitting on the deck. Tom, the gracious owner, greeted us upon arrival and was readily available to answer questions. Looking forward to a return vacation!

We had a great stay! Thank you so much Thomas! Would love to stay again :)

Spent a relaxing week at this quaint little cottage. Only a 5 minute walk to the private beach. Sunsets were amazing and the highlight of every day here. We met so many friendly people while walking in the village. Thomas, the owner, was very responsive with my many questions and a couple of minor issues we had during the week. The window ac cooled the entire cottage except the small bedroom in back. It was easily solved by sleeping on one of the 2 futons in the living room. Otherwise there were 3 window fans which were great on the not so humid days. The kitchen has everything you need to make your own meals, including a gas grill outside. The outdoor shower is something I did not know was missing from my life, convenient! Be warned the dining room area does not have any outlets close by. I had to string 2 extension cords together so I could work at the table. Also there aren’t any closets so storage space is limited. The addition of over the door hooks for the bedrooms would be a great help. Stores and restaurants are just a short drive from the village. Highly recommend this cottage!

This was easily the best vacation our family has been on in a long time! Thomas happily greeted us at check-in and gave us some background on the house and the area. The cottage was clean, and cozy; we felt right at home! To our happy surprise we were able to view a short fireworks show our first night, and we enjoyed beach time every day. The private beach is visible from the deck and a very short, enjoyable walk from the cottage. Our 3 year old son enjoyed saying hello to our friendly neighbors, which included bunnies, hummingbirds, and butterflies. And oh the sunsets, they were magical. You know it’s a great vacation when you’re sad to leave. Thank you so much Thomas! We look forward to making this a family tradition. We highly recommend!

Not luxurious but met all our needs. Private beach was great for swimming and sunsets and very close to cottage. Owner was available if needed but gave us privacy. Lots of other beaches, restaurants and ferry close enough to bike ride. Had a great week.

Tom is very nice and responds quickly to any question or problem. He even took my feedback from last year and I got to enjoy hot showers in the new enclosed outdoor shower! House is clean and the extra patio chairs was great. Would like to see maybe a loveseat or something due to us using the futon as a bed. Great location, price and super quiet neighborhood. Hopefully i can do it again, thanks Tom!

We loved the neighborhood feel of Breakwater Village. Everyone was friendly in this small private community. The cottage accommodated two adults comfortably, and offered the basic necessities without any frills which suited us just fine. The owner Tom is easy to work with and truly cares about the people who rent his property. We had a wonderful week and loved the beaches!

Had a great time! Great weather cute cottage and Tom the manager was attentive to our needs!

To be fair, Thomas allowed us to check in on Friday evening instead of Saturday afternoon which was very nice. Unfortunately as soon as we walked in we were hit with a strong, pungent smell. After checking all around the cottage we confirmed it was coming from the rugs. We also immediately noticed that the floors were so filthy that our shoes would stick on them as we walked. We could never walk barefoot in there and I have a picture of the bottom of my wife’s socks to prove the uncleanliness of the floors. There was also an ant infestation on the countertops that we had to deal with throughout the week. Thomas left one used roll of paper towels and one and a half rolls of toilet paper. We spent Friday night and Saturday buying cleaning and paper products so we could scrub and mop the floors as well as clean the counters, cooktop and table. After mopping 3 times, the floor was less sticky but still sticky nonetheless. The floors in that cottage are well beyond the point of needing replacement. While cleaning we also discovered someone’s shoes and used socks under one of the beds. We have a picture of that too. We ended up purchasing disposable dinnerware since there was severe rust on some of the silverware. Yes, we have a picture of that too. Thomas was made aware of all of this and came to the cottage where he swore that he cleaned it personally for 3 hours on Friday. If that’s the case then how could someone not see the ants, the rusted silverware or the shoes and socks?! My wife and I have rented homes on Narragansett since 2002 (including one in the same neighborhood as this cottage) using VRBO and we have never had issues like this. It is clear that Thomas does not care to hold this property up to the standards of everyone else. Cleanliness is not an unreasonable expectation when renting a home. His lack of communication about how to use the dumpster for the neighborhood or what he was going to do as far as leaving the keys for us was left for us to figure out. Simply put this property is a 1 star rental and we can confirm that the previous ratings are incorrect or at least old enough that the lack of care for this property has fallen off.

The cottage was clean, comfortable and convenient. We enjoyed our stay very much.

Its a nice little house in a great neighborhood .

I had the loveliest time at Tom's beach cottage, and I can't wait to go again next year! The beach decor is adorable. There is an indoor/outdoor shower which was perfect for rinsing off after the beach. I slept on the reclining couch which I found very comfortable, and a family member slept on the bunk beds and thought they were very comfortable as well. I really loved the little alcove with the futon surrounded by windows - it was perfect for reading a book and feeling the ocean breeze and hearing the waves.. you can even see the ocean from the window! I think one of the favorite parts was the outdoor space, which has a table for four with an umbrella and a view of the ocean. I sat out there at night and ate dinner and did homework and it was so relaxing. The community itself was awesome as well. Tom(the owner) was nearby if I needed anything or had questions and was quick to answer my calls or texts. He gave us the rundown of the neighborhood when we checked in, and was very accommodating to my sometimes demanding family that stayed with me for the first night. He left us a map of the area that had the attractions and restraunts, and explained everything about the beach and how trash service works. Our neighbors were super friendly, and everyone says hello or stops for a conversation when they see you. The town itself is great for anyone looking for peace and quiet or even families with kids.. the waves on the ocean were small and the cove itself is pretty sheltered from the elements..my niece and I took an inflatable kayak out on the ocean and had a great time! The tide pools by fisherman's point were probably one of my favorite things to do. There's three little private beaches for the community, and it's only a minute or two walk from Tom's house. The beaches were wonderful, and one of the residents told me the association rakes the seaweed from the sandy beach every morning. The rock formations along the beach are pretty cool to explore for shells and other sealife. Since I went the last week of August I practically had the beach to myself everyday! I felt safe and comfortable even when I was staying by myself for most of the week. If you're looking for big nightlife this might not be the place for you since everything gets pretty quiet by 9 or 10 at night, but I had a very relaxing time and honestly didn't want to leave. I highly recommend Tom's beach house, it's a lovely place to relax and unwind on the RI shore.

Tom was a gracious and available host. The house was neat and cozy, if a little funky in design. Very functional kitchen, large living room, deck with breeze and a bit of ocean view. We've been to Breakwater Village twice before and really love the area. The cottage is close to the beach, being able to walk back and forth for lunch (or whatever) was really a plus. Hope to repeat our visit sometime.

We had a terrific week at this comfortable cottage in a great location -- this is a small resort village crowded with little lanes, where families have built a variety of types of dwellings, from tiny cabins like this to two-story bungalows. Despite the fact that residences are close together, it was a very quiet location, and there was a sense that most of the people have been coming here for a long time (as well as short term renters like us). The beach is a short walk, but we also opted to spend one day at nearby Scarborough state beaches. We also spent a day on Block Island (the ferry's a short drive away -- wish we'd brought bikes, we could have biked to the ferry and brought them over), and of course enjoyed a meal out at Aunt Carrie's, only a 15 minute walk away. We also prepared most meals at the cottage, and found everything we needed in good order, including a gas grill. We neglected to inquire about linens beforehand -- they weren't expecting to provide them, but when we told Thomas we didn't have any, he delivered a set of sheets right away. There is a washing machine but no dryer (there is a clothesline), but be forewarned -- what gets wet tends to stay wet in a seaside location. Another thing to be aware of: the only toilet is off the main bedroom, while the shower is located off the bedroom where there is a set of bunk beds. This was fine with us, a couple, and would be fine for a family with children, but something to know if you plan to have guests.
