Thanksgiving in Gloucester
The house was beautiful. It was clean, comfortable and nicely decorated. The kitchen was well-equipped. We were able to cook a little Thanksgiving dinner. The views in the front and back of the house were amazing. We also enjoyed the sunroom in the front of the house and the proximity to beaches and walking trails.

Girls trip!! Amazing!
We recently stayed for 3 nights and had the entire house. We did a girls trip to visit Salem and Gaby’s house was the perfect place to stay for 6 adults. We each had our own room with the exception of my nieces who shared the 3rd floor with 2 beds. We took the train and were in Salem in 30 minutes. So easy and way better than driving. Everything about this house is great! Gaby thought of everything; shampoo and body wash to a blow dryer with a diffuser for us curly haired girls. lol. The views from the front porch are amazing!! It was so nice to have the living areas and a big table to play cards at night. Lots of little restaurants in the area that are so yummy! Thank you Gaby for a wonderful stay!!

Beautiful Views!
We had an amazing time. We had the priveledge of using the entire home. The house is perfect, light, airy, beautifully decorated. The amenities were great and the kitchens well stocked. The water views from the front porch are spectacular. We spent 5 days exploring the area and the location was perfect for our trips to Salem, Rockport and surrounding areas. We even gathered one night to watch The Perfect Storm as you can see the lighthouse and area from the house. There is alot of areas to walk and get some exercise right outside the front door. Not to mention a beach right across the street. We were lucky as the Deliahs were in full bloom. The host was quick to answer any questions and offer suggestions. It was an amazing trip and the home made it even more special.

Awesome location!
We just returned from a long weekend at this perfect house! We rented both units and my kids came with their children and the space was great. The view and location are great and it is a great area to walk and look at the harbor. The host was great and very responsive. The only issue is that the drawbridge goes up quite frequently for the boats and the traffic can back up for a while. The kids loved watching it go up and down though!

Perfect
Everything about this property was amazing! We were in awe the moment we stepped in, it was even more beautiful than the pictures. The view from almost every window is of the water. This was the perfect house for our family vacation. We were a group of 10, My Dad, his 3 children and a spouse, 3 grandchildren, a spouse and a great grandchild. There was plenty of room for all of us to hang out together between the inside of the house and the backyard patio. And the 2 living rooms worked great for a movie night downstairs and a game night upstairs. Such a close walk to downtown and to Stage fort Park, and quick drive to Rockport. We will definitely be back. Thank you Gaby for a wonderful week and our memories made.

Loves our stay. From check-in to check-out all went super smooth. The house is very large and location was superb. Fiesta weekend so it was an easy 5-7minute walk to the fiesta festivities. Can’t beat that. Off street parking made everything easy as well. Gaby was super friendly and very helpful. 100% will come back again

Beautiful views!
We had a lovely stay! The house is a 15 min walk into town, and also right across the street from a seaside trail. You don’t really need to drive anywhere, which was very nice since parking in town is difficult and the streets are narrow. The house was very clean, had an awesome front porch to relax on, and we loved the white noise machines in every bedroom! Also, random, but the towels were very nice and soft. Definitely recommend for large groups/families!

Family Time in Beautifuk Location
Gabriela was a wonderful host. Very responsive. Access to the home was straightforward and the location across from the ocean was lovely for walks to dinner, ice cream and parks. We did a whale watch, visited Rocky Neck Artist Colony, Good Harbour Beach and the Maritime Museum - we felt close to it all. We rented the entire house which was impeccably clean and had everything we needed for a great stay. Beds were comfortable and the backyard was such a little retreat.

perfect location, exactly as pictured
The location couldn't have been better. Initially, thought we were too far from "downtown" but then realized that we were equidistant from Stage Fort (with playground, beach and festival grounds) and downtown, which proved to be ideal bc we were there during a festival weekend. Both were easy 10 min walks, and easily manageable with 2 kids in a wagon/walking/scootering. The gardens along the beach are spectacular (we were there mid august)! The house itself was really lovely and relaxing and had everything we needed including dishwasher, washer/dryer, nightlights and white noise machines. In my rush to book a place, I didn't realize that it was a 2 family home (totally my fault). I usually book an "entire house" so I was worried about the noise level from my little ones (hosts state that quiet time starts at 10:30pm). This isn't a criticism of the hosts at all, it was 100% my oversight, but it ended up not being such an issue as my kids conked out after running around the beach and town. Plus, with the AC on, we didn't even need the white noise machine. The hosts were upstairs and had a couple animal friends- a cat (upstairs) and a bunny (outside). As my husband is allergic to cats, I was concerned, but again, didn't end up being an issue at all. Once we told them he was allergic, we didn't see the cat again our entire stay. It is a lovely home with beautiful furnishings and clearly well-maintained with utmost care, and in a prime location to boot. Highly, highly recommend!

Great property, even better hosts!
Gaby and her family could not have been more welcoming, accommodating, and helpful during our winter long-weekend stay in Gloucester. The property was pristine, the beds were comfy, and we were greeted with welcome gifts! Gaby was extremely responsive to every question and request, and despite the "Blizzard of '22" hitting during our stay, the walks and driveways were shoveled in no time. We cannot wait to return in warmer weather when we can visit the beach and hit up downtown (very walkable). Great location, too - would absolutely recommend!
