Lovely, historic Sea Bird suite.
Perfect spot in central Old Town Marblehead from which to wander the crooked narrow alleyways, view all the historic homes and breath in the salt air. Every amenity nearby. Clean, charming, authentic.

Cute place to stay
This is a very cute and charming apartment. It was perfect for two people. It is about a 15 minute drive from Salem, which was ideal for us. We enjoyed hanging out here after returning home for the evening. The owners were very helpful and communicative. We would definitely stay here again!

Very Nice
It was clean, bright, quiet and conveniently located close to our daughter in Swampscott. The place was charming and historic. I would stay but would request for a place on the first floor or a straight staircase. Matt was a great host who sent an email in advance with all the info we needed.

Great Location
Very clean, spacious for a one bedroom, and fantastic location. Easy walk to shopes, great coffee, and restaurants. This home has a few tenants so be aware you will hear others from time to time. Wasn't too big of a deal for us as we didn't spend a great deal of time inside. The mattress is also quite firm, again not a huge deal but something to note. Overall good place to stay if you want to be right in the heart of the historic distric.

Truly amazing
This place is awesome. Well appointed, simple, and close to everything. I went on a solo trip to Salem and stayed here. The entrance opens to the bedroom which was a nice surprise. It made me very comfortable and ready to relax. Fort Seawall and an amazing view of the ocean are a very short walk, downtown and some amazing shops and restaurants are right there. The place is also so close to Salem, Boston, and everything you should need or want. Such a gem to be here.

Amazing location
We loved our Marblehead stay! Super cute rental that is walking distance from the main shops. We had no trouble finding street parking close by, and mostly walked everywhere except the beach and Salem. Our one complaint is the bed. I thought other reviewers were exaggerating, they were not. If you like a bed so hard that it hurts to sleep on your side, you'll love the bed at this rental! Know that the building is not at all sound resistant, and the floor and bed squeak readily. I really appreciated how reachable the property owner was. I had to reach out twice and was answered promptly both times.

Convenient, warm and just right.
We stayed in town for a funeral with our 1.5 year old son (who we were kindly allowed in the space with after contacting the host) and it was just right for getting around town. My husband is from Marblehead and said the location was perfect and it was, very central and close-by to everything we needed to get to in walking distance. Because it was also January, it was freezing out but no part of our stay reflected the weather as we were able to manage the heat inside, it was very comfortable. I can't imagine how nice it would be in the summertime but if we're back we're very likely to stay here again.

Lovely Marblehead
Nice place overall. Bright, quiet, clean and conveniently located. Entrance stairs might present a challenge for those with limited mobility. Mattress was not comfortable for me (very hard and unforgiving). Kitchen was decent but missing a means to boil a pot of water or fry an egg. For an extended stay, this would be most appreciated. Alternatively, an electric tea kettle could be a nice addition. Bathroom was more than adequate but the shower was awkward for anyone on the larger side.

Marblehead deserves better.
The property is noisy. Bus traffic and some extended construction. The Kitchen is really non functional. Most of what is in kitchen is well used either extras from someone house or yard sales. The weird coffee maker had mold in it. Decor was cobbled up stuff. The bed was as hard as I have ever experienced. I didn’t think they made mattresses that hard. Noticing more and more the decline in What you get from VRBO or Airbnb. Back to hotels for me.

Perfectly adorable!
My boyfriend and I stayed here for a long weekend getaway and it couldn’t have been more adorable. We actually left fiancés and this apartment was the perfect place to celebrate. Matt was nothing but helpful and very communicative with any questions we may have had. We would absolutely stay here again. 5 out of 5 stars across the board!

Great place to stay for a getaway!
Planned a short trip to Salem and found this great place. Everything was as described. I thought it was even better in person. It was cute, quaint, quiet and peaceful. The bed was super comfortable. Some reviews are saying the shower was too small but I’m tall and had no problems with the shower. They do mention that parking in the back was very tight which is accurate but there was always a place to find parking elsewhere. Everyone in town was friendly and every place we ate was good. The scenery was beautiful and there were plenty of things to do. The drive to Salem, or Boston was very easy. Overall the experience was great and would recommend this place. We will most defiantly be returning!

Loved my stay. Almost felt like a sailor in the old part of town. I walked everywhere and swam every day. Capped the day off with dinner at local restaurants. A true vacation.

Last minute stay
We had a lovely time staying at this apartment in Marblehead. It was our first time to the area and a last minute trip that turned out to be fantastic! The apartment was in a great location. We were able to park and walk to restaurants, stores, and waterfront. We did use the car a couple times to go to a further away beach and a farmer's market. The apartment had everything we needed, kitchen, full bath, living room and a huge bedroom. All arrival and departure instructions were very clear from the host. We will definitely stay here again!
