It was my boyfriend's first time experiencing Newport/Middletown and he wanted to stay somewhere that offered more than a basic hotel room. I booked the Ruby Room at the Villa hoping that the history of the building would add to his experience and it did so plus much more. Every room was spotless, the sheets on the bed were clean and soft, and breakfast in the morning was fresh and carried on long enough so you didn't feel like you had to shoot out of bed early to make it on time to eat. Wendi (the host) and I had a conversation previous to our stay about wine and champagne and she ensured there were glasses set up in the room when we arrived (I never even asked)! On top of her thoughtfulness, when we arrived she was at her desk finishing her day of work, but went out of her way to start conversation and fill us in on the history of the home, the owner, and future plans for the Villa. The hosts were truly delightful. Everything about the Villa was incredible. I would recommend the Villa over any place else to anyone who decides to visit the area. It is close enough to Newport that our Uber only cost $9. Perfect location and a beautiful property. Food, convenience stores, and Newport were no more than 5 minutes from the Villa. The only bad part was leaving come Sunday... we had to drag one another out the door or we would have never left. I can't wait to book our next stay!
