About this apartment rental
Summary:
The Lookout Loft offers a front-row seat to Newport’s iconic waterfront energy. Perched above bustling Thames Street, from your windows you can catch the energy of Newport below and watch boats come and go on the harbor at Ann Street Pier. You’re steps from shops, top rated restaurants, the waterfront, and the water taxi. No need to drive - just park in the garage and explore the wharf, harbor, and iconic landmarks by foot all weekend.
The Space:
Inside, you’ll find an elegant retreat designed for a relaxed, elevated stay. Sunlight pours through the windows and skylights, offering views of the harbor and street below. The open living area has room to relax or stream your favorite shows, and the renovated kitchen makes it easy to cook in or bring back takeout from the countless nearby restaurants.
Three bedrooms are thoughtfully arranged for privacy and rest, including a spacious primary suite with its own bathroom. A second full bath and in-unit washer/dryer add convenience without compromising the residence's elegant character.
Park your car in one of the private garage spots and forget about it—you won’t need it. From this location, Newport is yours to explore on foot. Catch the water taxi at the end of the block, stroll to dinner, or simply watch the scene unfold from your windows above Thames Street.
Guest Access:
The Lookout Loft is located on the second floor of a building. You have access to the interior of the loft and 4 spaces in the parking garage across the street. The Lookout Loft does not have an elevator or ramp access to the second floor. Guests will need to use the stairs to reach the unit.
The Neighborhood:
Located in the heart of Newport, this condo puts you right in the middle of the action. Thames Street is just steps away, lined with boutique shops, cafés, and local favorites. Newport Harbor is a quick two-minute stroll, perfect for waterfront views or setting off on a sailing excursion. Bowen’s Wharf is also close by, just a three-minute walk from your door. For those wanting to explore Newport’s iconic landmarks, the Newport Mansions are a 17-minute walk, while the scenic Cliff Walk is just a minute further.
Getting around is easy, with the Newport Ferry Station a 10-minute walk away.
Getting Around:
Getting around the island is both easy and enjoyable. Many of our homes are situated in residential neighborhoods where walking, biking, scootering, or renting a golf cart offers a relaxed and scenic way to explore the area.
Other Things to Note:
Second Beach is very popular and tends to have more waves. Third Beach is very child-friendly as the water is usually very calm and protected from the wind. The Atlantic Grill is a great breakfast spot and walkable from this property. Newport's Cliff Walk is another must do while visiting. Located on Memorial Blvd, just before you head into Newport. Ocean Drive is an 8-mile scenic waterfront must see. The views are incredible and the mansions on Bellevue Avenue are breathtaking.
Interaction with Guests:
We’re located just down the street and are always happy to assist should you need anything—don’t hesitate to call or text. Otherwise, we’re pleased to give guests the privacy and space to fully enjoy their stay.

10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Oct 2025
Location, Location, Location! Place is in the heart of Newport. Very clean. Loved being able to walk everywhere we wanted. The 2 bathrooms are updated as well as the kitchen. It’s definitely a bit noisy on Friday and Saturday night but simply turn on the white noise and you won’t hear very much. I would stay here again for sure. No issues at all with the unit throughout our stay.

The property was very easy to get in, and just like described when we walked in. The best part about this unit was the location to all the shops and restaurants. We could walk everywhere!
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Sep 2025
The accommodations are very nice and clean, we were surprised there was no coffee or tea yet many options to make both. Very sparse on any amenities in the house. We love Newport and have been there several times, we knew where the home was and that the location was great but on a busy street. The reviews notes several different comments about the noise off the street and let me confirm that is no lie. We thought as it was off season it wouldn’t be as bad…nope there was so much noise every night all the way into the early morning. The funny thing is the house has posted quite hours but the noise from out side never ends and the windows are so thin you don’t miss a beat from the outside. I appreciate the sound machines in all the rooms but they really do not mask all the outside noise. Just beware it’s a lot!! Again very clean and great spot just soooo LOUD . Also there needs to be a bit better clarity on exactly where the entrance is to the home .
