Howland House Unit 16

Access

Windward Suites properties are all keyless, and instead use keypad smart locks for all of the doors for both the buildings and units. All guests will receive an email the morning of their arrival with the instructions, codes to the doors and Wifi. Super easy! Check-in time is anytime after 3:00 p.m. Check-out time is 11:00 a.m. Please be respectful of these times unless you have contacted us, as we have a cleaning crew who need the time to do a thorough job before and after all of our guests. There are three on site parking spots which are on a first come first serve basis, there is a city lot on Church St a few blocks away and we have a lot on Oak St, by request only, which is a 5min walk away.

While we want our guests to enjoy their privacy, we are also readily available for anything you might need, from extra towels to dinner recommendations. Just send us a message or give us a call. We are here to help and make things seamless and packed with fun—let's make your stay with us, at Windward Suites, unforgettable! Enjoy your stay!

Neighbourhood

You're planted in the heart of historic downtown Newport—205 Spring Street is one of the best spots around! Historic Spring Street leads right into Thames Street's buzzing restaurants, bars, live music, quirky boutiques, and waterfront energy. Steps from Bowen's Wharf for sunset cocktails, Bannister's Wharf for vibes, or nearby icons like Trinity Church and The Black Pearl. Safe, lively, and packed with coastal heritage—festivals, sailing action, mansions a short walk/drive away. The walkability is incredible—no car needed to feel Newport's pulse!

Notes

Howland House is a classic historic, four unit, building with the original construction dating back to 1750. It is one of Newport's oldest homes predating the Revolution. It has undergone many updates and renovations to bring new world comfort with an old world feeling. Unit 16 is located on the first floor, and is open and airy and gives everyone plenty of space to stretch out. Aside from the large living room with a coffee station, pullout sofa and daybed, the bedroom and bathroom are filled with natural light and have ample closet space. All of Windwards properties are professionally cleaned between guests and come outfitted in high end linens and towels. Aside from the cleanliness of the space, it is in one of the most sought after locations in Newport. You are steps away from Thames Street, Bannisters & Bowens Wharf, St. Mary’s church, and endless restaurants, bars, and shopping.
