Newport, Rhode Island is every coastal lover’s dream town. It’s one of the very few places in New England that actually gives California vibes and makes you feel like you’re the main character of a west coast drama.  If you’re looking for suggestions on where to stay and what to do, here’s a few things to consider:  🏨 Stay at @islandhousenewport, a new and innovative place where hotel meets Airbnb. The entire building is adorned with coastal accents, natural lighting, and suites that make you feel like you’re right at home. They offer complimentary bikes and beach chairs too with the beach just a few minutes away.  ⛱️Stunning Beaches - Newport is home to several beautiful beaches in close proximity to each other, including Easton’s Beach and Gooseberry Beach.  🏰Historical Mansions - Famous for its Gilded Age mansions, Newport is also home to the summer homes for some of America’s wealthiest families including The Breakers, Marble House, and Rosecliff.  🪨Scenic Cliff Walk - This 3.5-mile public walkway combines the natural beauty of the coastline with the architectural history of Newport’s famous mansions. It’s a perfect place for a stroll with amazing ocean views!  🎪Festivals and Events - Summer in Newport is packed with events like the Newport Oyster & Chowder Festival, Newport Folk Festival, Newport Jazz Festival, and the Newport International Boat Show. I attended the Oyster & Chowder Festival last year and it did not disappoint with fresh oysters, craft cocktails, and live music.  🦞Delicious Seafood - There are a ton of restaurants offering everything from casual clam shacks to fine dining experiences, where you can enjoy lobsters, clams, oysters, and more. Favorites: @thereefnewport @flosclamshacks @giustonewport  🛍️Charming Downtown - The downtown area is full of boutique shops, art galleries, cafes, and historic buildings. Thames Street, in particular, is vibrant and perfect for a leisurely day of shopping and dining.  ✔️Save this for your adventures in Newport and send to someone you want to explore with!  #newport #newportri

Welcome to @pelhamhospitality 🏨🌊✨  The property speaks for itself and encompasses all the details you want and need in a beachfront property. I’ve always loved this resort, mainly because of the brilliant marketing and humor intertwined with the team here, but experiencing the resort as a guest is another level of satisfaction.  Here are some of my favorite elements of Pelham House:  🌊 The private beach with pool & oceanfront views from your balcony.
🔥 The outdoor fire pits perfect for a glass of champagne and watching the sun set along the horizon.
🍽️ The Rooftop restaurant with delicious food and sweeping ocean views.  Be sure to follow @pelhamhospitality for their amazing reels and fun events happening throughout the year!  ✔️Save this for you adventures on Cape Cod and send to someone you want to experience the resort with.  #capecod #capecodinsta #capecodinstagram

Welcome to @pelhamhospitality 🏨🌊✨  The property speaks for itself and encompasses all the details you want and need in a beachfront property. I’ve always loved this resort, mainly because of the brilliant marketing and humor intertwined with the team here, but experiencing the resort as a guest is another level of satisfaction.  Here are some of my favorite elements of Pelham House:  🌊 The private beach with pool & oceanfront views from your balcony.
🔥 The outdoor fire pits perfect for a glass of champagne and watching the sun set along the horizon.
🍽️ The Rooftop restaurant with delicious food and sweeping ocean views.  Be sure to follow @pelhamhospitality for their amazing reels and fun events happening throughout the year!  ✔️Save this for you adventures on Cape Cod and send to someone you want to experience the resort with.  #capecod #capecodinsta #capecodinstagram

Welcome to @saltiegirl 🦪🦞🍸  Hands down one of my favorite seafood places in the city. I don’t make it into Boston as much these days, but when I do, it’s for truly amazing experiences.  Saltie Girl is a fabulous restaurant with patio seating, delicious seafood, and one of my favorite dirty martinis. If you’re looking for a fun place that caters to the best things in life, it’s here!  ✔️Save this for your adventures in Boston and send to someone you want to go with.  #boston #bostonfood #bostonfoodies #bostonseafood

A dreamy weekend back in the homeland.🌊🥯✨we were here for one of my dearest friend’s weddings so we rented a little cottage by the beach and was reminded why Long Island is so special.  A few days filled with daily walks to the beach, bagels, classic NY deli sandwiches, a welcome party on the beach, a beautiful wedding ceremony, and a reception at a local winery with all the rosé I could handle.  I may not make it here as often these days but when I do, it’s like I never left. 🥰 #LongIslandforever
