The house was clean, comfortable, welcoming and nicely decorated. We had a really busy weekend with a family wedding but I wish we had more time to enjoy the space! We did spend some time on the deck on Saturday morning. Highly recommend! We loved Bristol as well! Such a cute town!

We had such a wonderful stay in Bristol! Our host was absolutely fantastic! Sharolyn was friendly, communicative, and thoughtful from start to finish. She went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, even leaving a sweet little welcome gift for myself and the girls, which was such a lovely touch.The space itself was beautifully decorated and we really appreciated the cozy, aesthetic vibe. She was also super helpful with local recommendations and pointed us toward some great spots to eat, explore, and enjoy the area.It truly felt like a home away from home, and her hospitality made our girls’ trip even more special. We’d absolutely stay again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the Bristol area!

About the host

Hosted by Sharolyn Plungis

Host profile image
Welcome!
I’m Sharolyn, the host behind The Front Porch Vacation Rental. I love historic homes and the charm of coastal New England, which is why I fell in love with our Victorian home in Bristol.

What started as a renovation project quickly became a passion for hosting and creating beautiful, welcoming spaces for travelers.

When I’m not preparing the home for guests, I enjoy spending time with my kids, our dog Larimar, and exploring the waterfront, local shops, and restaurants around town. My goal as a host is simple—make sure every guest feels comfortable, cared for, and able to experience the relaxed coastal lifestyle that makes Bristol so special.
I look forward to welcoming you and helping make your stay memorable.

Why they chose this property

Set in one of the most charming neighborhoods of Bristol, the area is known for its beautifully preserved Victorian homes, quiet tree-lined streets, and timeless New England character.
One of my favorite things about the neighborhood is how peaceful and picturesque it feels while still being close to the waterfront, boutique shops, and wonderful local restaurants.
Guests can enjoy leisurely strolls through historic streets, sunsets along Narragansett Bay, and scenic rides on the nearby East Bay Bike Path. It’s a lovely blend of coastal elegance, history, and relaxed seaside living.

What makes this property unique

Our property stands out for its rare blend of historic charm and relaxing amenities. Set in a beautifully preserved Victorian home in Bristol, guests can relax in the year-round hot tub, sip coffee on the classic front porch, and enjoy peaceful outdoor spaces. The home combines timeless New England character with modern comfort, creating a cozy yet elegant retreat. Located just a short drive from Newport, guests can easily explore famous mansions, coastal scenery, and vibrant waterfront dining while returning to a quiet, charming neighborhood.
