Lewis Bay Retreat - walk to beach and Hyannis nightlifeid#: 1057
- Rental property description:
- Recently renovated Cape style home in a secluded location near beach! Walk to beaches, restaurants, ferry and shops. The house is located on a quiet, dead-end street, abutting conservation area, within an easy stroll (1/4 mile) to a warm and gentle Nantucket Sound Beach. High quality linens, beach chairs and much more is provided for your enjoyment of the Cape holiday. Free Barnstable Beach pass.
The house has 3 bedrooms and 1 full bath. There are 2 bedrooms on the 2nd floor, one with a queen size bed (memory foam mattress topper), the other has twin beds that are converted to a very comfortable king size on demand.
The beds are zipped together with a 'twin doubler', topped with a king size thick memory foam pad and cotton mattress pad. The bath is also on the 2nd floor. The 1st floor features another bedroom that contains a double futon with feather bed, living room, dining room and kitchen.
Our past guests enjoyed the convenience of having a king size bed: 'We loved the house!!! It was really perfect. I wanted to let you know that the two twin beds as a king worked great and the memory foam made it very comfortable!!! The sheets were also amazing!!! The house was great with everything we needed to enjoy our stay! We also loved being so close to everything! It was great being able to walk downtown.' - from 2 couples traveling together.
We will provide you with bed and bath linen (high quality European - all cotton sheets and thick fluffy towels), as well as beach towels and chairs.
The kitchen is fully stocked with cooking necessities (including a lobster pot), and there is a washer and a dryer. There are A/C units in the bedrooms as well as ceiling fans. Local phone service and Wireless DSL are available free of charge.
Relaxation comes in many forms on Cape Cod and sometimes you just want to stay at home, enjoying the breeze from the sea and the sweetness of doing nothing. There is cable TV, VCR, DVD player, DVD library (both adults and kids movies), Sony PlayStation with games, books and board games, for an occasional rainy day or a quiet evening in.
'Thank you for providing such a pleasant atmosphere for our vacation on the Cape. It can sometimes be a little scary when renting something without seeing it first. We were not disappointed. Your thoughtfulness was much appreciated and your home so warm and welcoming. Our every need was met and we enjoyed our short walks to the beach and trips around the area' - said our guests from Kansas.
The best we left for last - our home's location! This 2-story house is situated within an easy stroll (five minutes) to a warm and gentle Nantucket Sound beach. You can swim, play in the sand, and enjoy the view of Lewis Bay and many boats that enter Hyannis Inner Harbor every year.
While you are staying at our vacation retreat, your vacation possibilities are endless! Get out on the water in a cruise ship or sailboat; take a ferry and explore Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket; take a train that chugs through country farms and hidden fields; get a bird's-eye view from a plane or glider; or enjoy an afternoon of strolling and shopping - it's all within an easy reach. Hyannis Harbor and Marina with its ferries and cruises, Cape Cod Railroad and an airport all just a few minutes walk away. Fishing enthusiasts would love an opportunity to take one of the deep sea fishing expeditions that leave from Hyannis Harbor - this area of Nantucket Sound is known as one of the best on the East Coast for bottom fishing. There are 5 great public golf courses and several conservation areas for biking and hiking are a short drive away.
Come and enjoy and our tranquil and sparkling house! This is a family owned home and we would love to share our enjoyment of lovely Cape Cod with you. In the house, there is an informational binder describing our favorite activities and restaurants in the nearby area.

Our recent guests from Chesihire, UK enjoyed the location of this home: 'We have had the most fantastic week. Your house is absolutely perfect, a real home from home - we could not have hoped for more! The situation in Hyannis was great, very peaceful but yet within easy walking distance of the beach and restaurants. We loved the convenience of the beach at the end of the road and it was great to sit and watch all the boat tours going past.'

'Thank you very much for your little touches which make American hospitality so wonderful! We had a competition to see if there was anything you hadn't provided and we couldn't find a thing! Your house is wonderfully welcoming. Everything was so well thought out and we really appreciated the wine and choccies! We had a wonderful holiday here. The accommodation is spotless and very homely. The house is very well equipped. Every effort was taken to ensure that we enjoyed our stay. The beach is walking distance and very safe for children. This was a great base to explore from. We recommend the bike hire at Martha's Vineyard!”
