Newport, Rhode Island is a hugely popular ocean resort town. It boasts
eclectic architecture, with its culturally significant historic homes
from the 1600’s, massive “summer cottage” mansions
built by the country’s wealthiest citizens in the 1800’s,
and modern luxury hotels. Its harbor is a working waterfront; lobster
and fishermen abound, sharing the docks with sailing vessels, pleasure-boats,
and elegant yachts. The summer in Newport is bustling with activities
from music and seafood festivals, restaurants to fit any budget, beautiful
beaches and surf, a popular tennis museum with professional tournaments
and historic grass courts, a naval museum and base offering tours, regattas,
its Cliff Walk, art galleries, shop-lined streets, to countless other
events, activities, and places to visit.
The Delano Homestead Bed and Breakfast is located only 45 minutes away
