The original wide plank pine floors and exposed beams in the ceiling, granite counters, stainless steel appliances, gas stove, and dishwasher. Full size washer and dryer in unit with a large master bedroom Do you ever want to get away Not just to another vacation rental but REALLY GET AWAY… imagine this, step in to a historical building in Old Town, Marblehead a old New England town which originated in the 1600’s , this is where the navy originated…. long ago. And now it is an affluent town, surrounded by water and beaches, restaurants, with name plates on every building telling you about the original owner, and his profession and 5 yacht clubs last time I counted.

And then you open the door and walk into you first room and you realize you are really away … you are now in a safari, there are elephants, giraffes, tigers, and in a glance to the left and to the right you get the feeling of Mad Men but not in an office drinking cocktails, in the safari (so much better) a different place and time, on a safari, you can t believe what you are seeing…. Then you step down the hall and there is a sign on each door, and there is a Glam room. It is hot pink, light green and gold to glam it up, and who is with you Audrey Hepburn is to the right, and to the left is a mirrored gold vanity desk and tons of closets….. now this room is glamourous… hard to decide where to hang out right at the moment. Back down the hall and there is a sign on the door that looks mid-century modern, lets go in. Sure enough, each little detail screams mid-century modern and 2 closets and suite bathroom….. let’s keep moving. Now we are downstairs, and this room is all about the ocean, and how fun there is a wall with chalk board paint we can draw on, there are schools of fish swimming on the wall , glow in the dark stars on the ceiling. And a huge tv showing an ocean program, 2 twin beds, 2 bean bag chairs, (with fish and shells all over them, a siting area with 2 blue chairs and a white table, and look at the games! Twister, books, cards, puzzles, glow in the dark balls, and squirt guns! We can play with those in the yard, this place has a beautiful back yard, with 3 lilac bushes, 1 very large Hydrangea, 3 rose bushes, and Irises, and a patio which has a great siting area, a couch, 3 additional seats, lots of tables to hold my drink and 2 heat lamps to keep the chill off if necessary….. yes, this is a themed vacation rental, every room has a theme, adding more excitement to our trip. It’s a great way to really escape – if its done right, and this one is done right! Not only all this, but chocolates and lavender oil on your pillow, a bottle of Prosseco when you arrive, and a basket of everything you may left behind right there for your use. And if your looking for something different, maybe a personal chef to make you dinner, maybe a singer to entertain you.... just ask, caue this in not your ordinary vacation rental.

    Beautiful clean home however some difficulties including difficulty with locking/unlocking doors with codes, sensitive fire alarm went off easily and host was not responsive in a timely fashion. Quiet hours are very strict and host lives above VRBO property. Otherwise clean home, pictures as listed and great location nearby Marblehead.

    My family and I stayed here while attending a wedding in Boston. The home itself was fine, but unfortunately the host made us feel very unwelcome. We had a service dog, and despite cleaning up after him every time, the host told us he was not allowed in the backyard because her dog was taking longer to use the bathroom bc it could smell our dog. She even threatened to remove us if she saw him outside again, and attempted to charge an extra fee after our stay, which showed a severe lack of ADA protections.The backyard was also often unavailable in the evenings due to the host using it with friends. With 4 adults, and three small children, the house is tight and not particularly kid-friendly. The first-floor bedroom had a very uncomfortable spring mattress, and both bathrooms were located on the first floor (none on the lower level). Parking was inconsistent—sometimes available nearby, but at worst down the street.Overall, while the home had potential, the experience was extremely disappointing due to the host’s restrictions, rude demeanor and lack of hospitality.

    As detailed in the listing- the house is adorable, conveniently located, and one of the most organized rentals I've seen! Everything is spotless and well cared for.

    We are long time visitors of Marblehead and this has been one of, if not the best place we’ve stayed so far. The property was well appointed from the kitchen all the way to linens. A great central home that you will love!

    This home was beautiful, bright, cheery and clean. We had everything we needed and the location was perfect! Restaurants, shops and beaches within walking distance. We had great communication with our host who made our visit personal and would love to stay here again.
