We had to be in pawtucket but wanted some time at the beach without the high prices of Newport. Narragansett is beautiful, with a great town beach ($8/person admission) (and a very cool history museum across the road). Sandra's place is great - accommodated the 4 of us easily. And don't worry if you forgot your toothbrush or laundry detergent; Sandra's got it in the apartment so you can relax. And, yes, there are pineapple themed decorations everywhere.
