We chose this property in Swampscott, MA in July 2025 because of its location close to the venue for our daughter’s wedding. What a great decision we made! The location was perfect as we could easily walk to restaurants and the beaches. The 3 bedrooms were good sized, the kitchen was fully equipped, the living room had ample room for the 4 of us and the 2 off street parking spots were great. We look forward to returning to this lovely condo.
Place was perfect as we stayed here to visit Salem. The train station was a short 4-5 minute drive and then from there about a 7 minute train ride into Salem everyday super convenient. The place was very clean and kid friendly as well. Definitely recommend this place and communication with the owners was easy and quick to respond. Thanks for the great stay
This place was conveniently located to Marblehead, Salem and Boston. Great basecamp for our vacation. The are was very quiet and absolutely Beautiful.. Restaurant IN TOWN WERE EXCEPTIONAL! house WAS EXTREMELY CLEAN!
We had a great stay - the location was perfect for day trips to Salem and Boston and we enjoyed walking around Swampscott. The condo itself was well decorated and well stocked - it had everything we needed! Our two young children loved the provided toys and books and we all slept well in the comfy beds. Justina was easy to communicate with and the check in was very easy — we would definitely stay again if in the area!
This is a great neighborhood just off Olmsted Park. A quick walk to waterfront dining admission on the bay on the rooftop. Enjoyed playing SalemOpoly! Clean place with well equipped kitchen.

We had an absolute blast on our stay! The house was spotless and felt like a cozy home away from home. Communication was seamless, which made everything easy and enjoyable. We were super comfortable, and it honestly felt like the perfect place for our family getaway. Whether you're visiting the area or just need a fun escape, this spot is a gem! Can't wait to come back for more adventures! Highly recommend!
I am so happy we decided to stay in Swampscott instead of Salem. Swampscott is such a wonderful coastal city that has so many amazing things to offer, from the food to the scenery. Just a quick train ride to Salem, so painless and easy. I will highly recommend this place to any friend that asks me about my trip.
A quick walk to restaurants and the water in Swampscott!
The house was perfect for 5 of us to stay comfortably. We booked this house for the main purpose of spending the weekend in Salem. Salem was only a 10/15 drive from this house! This location is perfect for walking to the restaurants right on the water.
Blaney St apartment was exactly as promised and was ideal for my family and me. We were visiting family in Swampscott so the location was perfect for us. We had one issue with a trash odor which was responded to immediately. Appreciate the location and ample space. Recommend if you want to be near the water in a lovely town.
We had the best time during this stay. The location is fantastic, just steps from restaurants and King’s Beach and Fisherman’s beach. The unit is comfortable and well laid out. We enjoyed the comfortable living room and felt the hosts were incredibly responsive. There are also 1.5 baths which is great with kids. We were there a month so feel like we are qualified to review the space. I highly recommend this home!
We loved the location of the property. It was half a block from the restaurants and shops. So close to the beach. The apartment itself was so clean and comfortable. Everything you could want was supplied. The back yard was a plus for our dog. We would defi itely book this property again.
We had an amazing stay at this location, it was clean, very family friendly, and location was perfect. Just a 5 minute walk from the main strip in/ocean with plenty of activities. Every room had their own AC unit to help fight the heat and plenty of room to relax. 10/10
We had the best time on our short trip— we only wish we could have stayed longer! This place is a very short walking distance to awesome restaurants and ice cream spots (and a Catholic Church if you’re looking for Mass lol)! Every restaurant we tried was amazing and the town is cute and walkable. There's even beach access, though it's more for boats. My kids had a blast playing in the sand/rocks and catching hermit crabs on the beach. The unit was clean and worked perfect for my husband, our two kids, and my mother-in-law. The "kids room" was so cute- they have bunk beds and a trundle available. They had so many cute toys for them to play with and they even set up a coloring table in the room. We would love to stay here again!!!

The outside of the house, including the deck, is worn and needed sprucing up.
The interior was very nice and exceptionally clean, especially the kitchen and bathrooms. The A/C units were underwhelming, as the window unit for the kitchen/dining area/living room is too small for the area. It wasn't very warm during our visit so it wasn't much of a factor, but may be an issue in the summer months.Two bedroom units were portable units, so the A/C sits in the bedroom and there is a hose that leads to a window opening. They were in the way, a window A/C would be much better for the space.
Checking in went smooth with no issues and parking is right in front of the house.
Perfect location for a visit to my hometown. Walks along the shore, restaurants within walking distance and drinks on the upper deck made for a lovely visit with family.
