The property was fantastic. Perfect location in Padanaram Village for exploring everything the village and the South Coast have to offer. The house was clean, well appointed and the communications with Fatima were easy and straightforward. We look forward to hopefully coming back next summer!

First time in Padanaram Village. We were pleasantly surprised at the beauty of the town and the area overall. The house recently updated and nicely decorated. The yard good sized and nicely landscaped.
Love that we can walk to food, dining, shops and harbor. We went to Round Hill beach several times. One of the nicest and cleanest beach I’ve been to in Massachusetts. We would come back.

Loved this home! Right in the center of everything. Host was wonderful and the house was perfectly equipped for our stay.
Thank you!

We enjoyed our stay in this wonderful house with beautiful views in the Padnarem Village. Right in town with a short drive to Round Hill Beach. Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay and we look forward to coming back next year!

This is a great location and the house was well provided for a family vacation. Host was helpful and gracious. Will be happy to return.
4.9
Beautiful, clean, comfortable and well maintained home. Had everything we needed but if not, the owner was local and a phone call away. Great views. Walkable to coffee shops, ice cream, boutiques, grocery market. Round Hill Beach is beautiful and great for kids, and Apponagansett Park, just across the bridge, has a fantastic park for the kids. The home is situated on a corner right in the hub of Padanaram, which we knew from doing a street view, but we didn't anticipate how busy the road would be. Not a huge deal, but if you're looking for peace and quiet, there is quite a bit of road/motorcycle noise. There is a restaurant next door, within feet from the house, that plays live, outdoor music on Fri-Sun evenings. Not ideal for families with young kids. Regardless, we enjoyed our stay in the lovely village of Padanaram.
4.9
The house was well equipped and very comfortable. We enjoyed hearing the live music from next door and watching the world go by.
Only caveat: the town has changed its procedures for getting a beach pass. It is in line and then mailed to you. So plan accordingly!
4.9
We had a relaxing vacation in this beautiful well kept home. The location is active and the house is perfectly cozy. We enjoyed local musicians playing on the weekends and walks along the harbor bridge during the week.
4.9
Great location for beaches, boating, good food, fun shopping, and an overall friendly vibe. The house itself has the relaxed feel of a beach abode. The sun shines on the front porch in the morning and on the side deck in the afternoon. You can prepare meals in an equipped kitchen or take advantage of a delicious breakfast, lunch, and dinner at the local eateries and restaurants all within walking distant. The harbor is right across the street so if you enjoy kayaking or paddle boarding it's easy to make that happen with a local rental or what the house provides. Our family of three generations had a wonderful time.

This was our first VRBO experience. It greatly exceeded all expectations!! The house is beautiful. Wonderful, amazing amenities. Communications with property manager was outstanding. My wife says she will never stay in a hotel again!! This location was perfect for us and we will be back. Thank you so much!

The house on Bridge street was a perfect location for celebrating a special family birthday. Visitors were from the West so the location across from the dock and the water was a special treat House was so comfortable for this extended visit. Location was perfect.

Our stay at the Padanaram Cottage went above and beyond our expectations. The house was very well-equipped, decorated, and maintained for a relaxing vacation, and the host responded in a timely manner to any questions that we had. The cottage overlooks the beautiful Apponagansett Bay, and is situated in a very convenient location to visit tourist attractions nearby. We enjoyed our stay and are happy to recommend this cottage to others.
4.9
As a family we couldn't have been happier with this fabulous vacation home on the harbor. We chose this property for the glorious sunsets, the in-town location near shops, restaurants, ice-cream, the beautiful beach, and the comfort of a rental that also feels like home. We never tired of the incredible view, the fun games available for the children, the comfortable beds and fine linens and the epic response from the owners. We can't wait to return!

Fabulous family gathering
We celebrated my parents 60th birthday with a getaway to a harbor we used to sail to. It was perfect for 8 people with 2 being teens (one bedroom is a twin with a trundle and is very small). Walking distance to some great restaurants (don't miss Little Moss) and cute shops. Beautiful sunsets. Nice common area space. Everything worked out wonderfully!

Can't wait to go back!
Loved our stay here! Can't beat the location, the house is amazing and super clean and comfortable. Communication was a breeze. Was super fun to take the kayaks out just a few steps from the house.

A Home at the Harbor’s Edge
This busy seaside village is my hometown. We loved gathering with our families to enjoy time together and take advantage of the food , shopping, and beautiful walks just outside our porch. The house has great views of the harbor and space for relaxing and sleeping well. The kitchen is lovely and well equipped for family meals. The swimming at Round Hill was perfect. We were lucky with the weather!
Yes, we will return! Thankyou Fatima.

Great Family Beach House
All the reviews that say the house is immaculate are correct. Well equipped, pleasant home. Great views and excellent location in the heart of Padanaram. Great having Farm & Coast and ice cream parlor right across the street. We have already reserved again for next year.

We had a wonderful, relaxing time. Loved the property and the people watching!
Fatima was the perfect host! The house couldn't be any more immaculate and she is always a phone call away if you need anything.

Beautiful Massachusetts Stay
My family and I loved staying at this cottage! It is a beautiful house and it is so close to everything. We got ice cream from across the street almost every day and ate many of our meals from Farm and Coast, also right across the street. My favorite part was the view of the water while I was drinking my morning coffee. Highly recommend this place!

The heart of Padanaram
This great house is literally in the heart of Padanaram. Walk out the door and there you are. Views are exquisite. House is immaculate. Owner is easily accessible and responsive. What’s not to love: Having to pack up and leave.
Until next time.

Family reunion at Padanaram Cottage
This was our 2nd stay at this lovely home. Our 3 adult children and our infant grandchild enjoy the well-appointed, comfortable home. The cottage is directly on Padanaram Harbor, offering water views and sunsets. The village location offers wonderful shops, restaurants and a gourmet market, all within walking distance. It is easily accessible to beautiful beaches, wineries, New Bedford and Martha’s Vineyard. Our family enjoyed the kayaks. The owner could not be more welcoming! She has overlooked no detail in this fully equipped vacation experience. We will definitely return!

Wonderful Family vacation
We had a wonderful week in this home by the sea! It was right in the heart of paderanam, walking distance to everything! The house was well stocked with anything you would need. The sunsets were amazing! The only draw back was getting a beach pass, it had to be done in person M-F at the town hall and the cost is $100 each car... that being said the beach at round hill is magnificent!! We will be back next year

Adorable Cottage
This is a great place to stay especially if you enjoy being in the center of the village, on the water and a hundred feet from a really good restaurant!

Charming cottage in the center of harbor activity
This is charming cottage with a definite "beach house" feel to it. It is informal, but very nicely appointed. This is a great location if you want to be in the center of harbor and village shop activity. We had a great experience on our vacation here.
