This property was phenomenal. The energy was welcoming from the start. The room was very clean, not a speck of dust was found. A very cute and spacious room. The area of the inn was perfect as well. A good walk to the beach, local food places you can walk to all around, close to Newport where you can shop and eat. It was an enjoyable stay, affordable, and lovely. Will book again.

This place was perfect! Stayed in the jacuzzi room and it was so worth it after a long day of fishing! The whole property was so clean and beautiful. The room was absolutely spotless and even smelled clean which was refreshing. Would definitely recommend and come back!

Rhea's a gem of a location

Tony is a great host, the Inn is perfectly located across from a beautiful beach and just down the road from the northern entrance to the cliff walk and the mansions. The inn is situated about a 5-10 minute drive to downtown Newport and all the great restaurants and shops. The rooms are large, clean and well appointed and Tony has made sure that all safety protocol's are observed. There is a simple but adequate breakfast available and if you need a full breakfast there is a restaurant within walking distance. I recommend Rhea's for a great night's sleep and an excellent location at a great price.
