We stayed at the Capt. Carl houseboat and had an amazing stay!! We have been to Newport numerous times but this was by far the best place we have stayed. It was truly an unforgettable experience!
The interior of the boat was very comfortable and very nicely decorated. You cannot get any closer to the water. We spent as much time as possible on the multiple decks and outdoor spaces on the houseboat, cooked on the grill, watched the sunset and honestly could have just hung out there the whole time. The boat is in easy walking distance to town with tons of restaurants, shops and lots of things to do.
We were slightly hesitant because there was no a/c but that was not an issue at all! The constant breeze was amazing and we never felt the need for a/c. Highly recommend!
