Historic Waterfront Downtown Portsmouth Condo
9.4 out of 10, Exceptional, (3)
"Adorable unit in waterfront neighborhood in downtown Portsmouth. Would be hard to find anything else like it. Cleaners missed quite a few spots to ready the property (including something on sheets) but otherwise place was great. No parking near property but owner provided garage pass for undercover parking a very short walk away. Unusually, refrigerator drawers were completely full of owner's drinks so that limits your fridge space - but if you don't need a lot that's not a hindrance."

Chic Loft-Style Condo in Downtown Portsmouth

"While looking for a getaway for my husband, son, dog and myself, I stumbled upon the chic loft-style condo. After reviewing the condos information, I began to search for things to do in the surrounding area. Pleasantly surprised with the family friendly location, I quickly booked this condo for a 2-night stay. Communication with Jessica was seamless; she was clear with the steps I would need to take in order to enter the condo. Upon arrival, the condo smelled very clean and after a quick walk...

"Our eldest son just moved to the Portsmouth area so we spent a week there getting him settled. Our host was helpful, informative and extremely friendly. This beautifully decorated home is in a great location close to all the action downtown. Everything we needed to enjoy our stay (restaurants, bars, CVS, ice skating rink, etc.) was just minutes away by car. We even spent one afternoon in Southern Maine, which was right over the bridge. We'll be visiting Portsmouth lots from hereon in. And when...

Sail Loft Portsmouth - beautiful apartment near downtown.
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (3)
"The apartment was located in a quiet neighborhood within walking distance of downtown. It was the perfect size for a small group of us to stay and be able to walk to shopping and restaurants. We had everything we needed, including a cute little snack area. I would say the only downside was that the building was very old and therefore not soundproofed. So we heard everything the young kids were up to downstairs, quite early in the morning. Still, we’d definitely rent again!"

Amazing remodeled house that sleeps 11! Walk to downtown Portsmouth and park 8+
8.0 out of 10, Very good, (4)
"We had 7 adults and 3 kids in our group, and we were very comfortable in this large home. Everyone had their own bedroom (the kids shared) and the main living areas were very nice. The kitchen is very nice and well-equipped, and we also appreciated the huge driveway / parking pad. The only complaints we had were minor - the bathroom on the second floor is attached to a bedroom, so you have to go through the bedroom to get to it (not ideal for the couple in that room), and the third floor stairs...
