New England: pousadas

The hosts were friendly and the cozy apartment was ideally located for our stay. It was private and quiet, and we appreciated the in- unit washer/dryer, refrigerator and microwave.

Karyl has hosting down to a perfection! We were late arrival in Karyl was up waiting for us. Their house is perfectly clean and was beautifully decorated for Christmas! The lake views were amazing. She had breakfast waiting for my daughter and I when we came downstairs. They had some great local recommendations for us. Would stay again. Thank you Karyl!

We had a wonderful stay. Lisa was warm, welcoming, and friendly. The rooms were charming, and the beds were very comfortable. The grounds were beautiful and full of flowers, and we enjoyed visiting the chickens. We ordered breakfast, which was delicious! The food was homemade, fresh, flavorful, and plentiful. My favorite was Lisa's homemade granola. We were fortunate to find such a lovely place to stay.

Had a wonderful time at Daniel’s Airbnb! We were greeted with a warm reception and delicious apple cake with delicious sweet tea! I can’t say enough good things about Daniel and his beautiful home. We felt right at home. He gave us great recommendations for restaurants and things to do in the area. Our accommodations were very comfortable. Best part was the delicious breakfast with coffee and tea and scrumptious omelette with homemade hash browns! I wanted the recipe! I highly recommend Daniel’s place, it made our vacation a little more special! PS: Reds Eats in Wiscasset Maine was the best ( Paul Newman and Robert Redford ate there too) Thanks for the recommendation!!

Claudia was an awesome host and very responsive. We had a good night stay in a nice private bedroom with private bathroom. We really appreciated her hospitality with breakfast food that was left out so kindly for us. Although it was such a brief stay on our road trip, we will consider staying here again in the future if we are in the area!

Loved our stay! Just a quick weekend getaway for a friend and me and it was perfect for that. The yard is incredibly peaceful, filled with birds and a gorgeous view. The beds were very comfortable, and Josette’s breakfast was a delicious start to the day. We would love to come back again.

We had a lovely time at Blythe's place. The house was clean, cozy and so close to Bellayre mountain, which was perfect for our ski trip. Would definitely stay there again!

I wanna go back and have coffee, lovely folks

Martha's B&B is a wonderful spot to stay. The cycling path is right at Martha's listing.

Couldn’t have better things to say about this place and Pat! The location is PERFECT…walking distance to shops/restaurants on Thames and Bowens Wharf. It was my boyfriend and my first time in a bed and breakfast and it was fabulous - breakfast was perfect, and we even had the option to take it to go if we wanted. Pat made us feel at home, gave great suggestions and the blue suite was surprisingly large! Would stay again when back in Newport!

This was a beautiful stay, one of my favorites ever, and we’re super grateful to Katrina and Dee for making it so. From having a beautiful space to roam around in, a hot tub, a bonfire and the KAYAKING-which was amazing and easy to navigate as a first timer- there was so much about this place that makes me grateful we found it. It’s not to be missed!

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay, it was exactly what I'd hoped for - quiet, relaxing, restorative! The swing in the backyard is a peaceful place to enjoy the beautiful surroundings. Ricki is wonderful host and has created a lovely homey space for her guests. I'd stay here again and highly recommend it to others.

Sue and Eric were lovely hosts; Sue's breakfasts were amazing - just the homemade touch we were looking for after a long road trip. Eric had plenty of recommendations, from tidal pools to hiking spots in Acadia. The B&B was cozy and had so many books to pick up and read. Lamoine beach, just down the road, made for a very pleasant early morning walk. I'd recommend Sue and Eric's place to anyone coming to Acadia!

Always a favorite of mine to stay at mountain sports inn. My go-to when in killington. Great price, perfect location, and always easy to check in and out. Never a complaint!

Highlanders View is the full bed and breakfast experience! Leam was extremely friendly, helpful, and accommodating. The views are second to none, and the surrounding forest puts you right in the middle of the Catskills. The Tavern Room was perfect, with a clean, full bathroom, comfortable bed, living room area, and a large porch to take it all in. I would highly recommend and would love to come back!

Quel bonheur de passer du temps chez Diane et Patrice. Dès que nous avons passé le pas de la porte, nous nous sommes sentis comme à la maison, accueillis comme des rois. Diane et Patrice sont de grands passionnés. Ils nous ont régalé par leurs discussions et le déjeuner remplis de petites attentions. Je rêve encore de cette salade de fruits avec ces copeaux de noix de coco!

We loved our stay with Margaret at this B&B! The house is lovely and our room was clean, super comfortable, and had a warm homey feel. The breakfasts were delicious and Margaret was so accommodating. We had early starts for Acadia and while her formal breakfast is from 8-10 am, she prepared baked goods and coffee to go for us. The one day we had formal breakfast was DELISH! Margaret was communicative, incredibly accommodating and flexible, greeted us kindly on arrival, and she and her husband were excellent hosts, intent on making sure our visit was just to our liking. The area is very quiet (which she let us know ahead of time) and worked perfectly for us to rest up between long days at Acadia and grabbing early dinner on the way back.

We totally loved our stay! The town of Norfolk is so quaint. But Airbnb bed-and-breakfast, we felt right at home really loved the breakfast in the morning when we all sat around the table and had conversations with all the guests that were staying. I would definitely stay there if we return to the area.

Lovely home, great location and friendly and helpful host. Felt more like a "hosted B&B or inn" rather than the more common experience I've had with Air B&B of the host being available but not a visible presence. If you are looking for a private, nonengaging experience, this might not be for you. However, if you enjoy meeting your host, we found Bob to be warm and cheery and he made us a lovely breakfast with excellent coffee. Rosy was away so we did not meet her, however, her decorating talents were much on display from the tableware to the linens and accoutrements, all of which made us feel like we were special guests.

What a lovely and beautiful location amongst the woods... perfect living space, a wonderful kitchen with everything we could want or need. Sharon is the consummate host. We absolutely love being there and our 2 dogs do too! We can't wait for our next visit!!

Catalpa House is exactly what you want in a small town retreat; comfortable bedding, well chosen amenities, superb breakfast, accommodating but not intrusive hosts, lovely common areas with local literature and current periodicals. It doesn't get better.

PERFECT place to stay ..a definite 5/5 stars across. AN INCREDIBLE host! Marie-Claude's home is perfect. Our private self contained private entry suite with plush queen bed, large clean private washroom with full shower, fridge. with lots of large windows was just perfect. Whenever we come back Quebec City area we definitely will stay at Marie-Claude's again. Thanks for hosting us Marie-Claude. Charlie and K

This place was completely comfortable and well worth it, a home away from home atmosphere that is hard to find. Super clean and wonderful hosts. Would definitely return and recommend to anyone!

This is my 2nd time staying at Anne and Dick’s place, and it was just as amazing this time as it was the 1st time! I highly recommend, and is in a great location. Best hosts! Will definitely visit again!
