Situated on the second floor above a jewelry shop, this cozy hideaway was inspired by Marblehead's nautical history, while still retaining all the modern conveniences today's travelers desire. The space Guests will enter through a private walkway along the side of the building and up the steps leading to a deck and beautiful patio. Inside, the entry area doubles as a laundry room with access to a washer and dryer, in case you need to dry beach towels or bathing suits after a day on the water. This leads to the main living space with an open kitchen. Though the living area may be small, the vaulted shiplap ceilings make the space feel open and airy. It's the perfect spot to curl up with a good book or watch a movie on a rainy day. The kitchen is equipped with everything you'll need for meals during your stay and includes a peninsula for dining in. Take your pick from the lobster bedroom offering a queen bed or the sailboat bedroom with a full bed. Treat yourself to a bath in the antique clawfoot tub or take a quick shower to wash away the salt and sand. There's even a spacious patio perfect for outdoor dining or relaxing in the sun. Decorated in a playful red, white, and blue color scheme, this quaint apartment offers the quintessential Marblehead experience for those looking to live like a local during their stay. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach loungers - Beach towels ### Internet - Available in the apartment: Free WiFi ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Hob - Kitchen island - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Living room ### Entertainment - Games - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Recycling - Unit size: 641 square feet ## Similar properties ![On the beach, fishing](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/110000000/109120000/109115300/109115211/51b527db.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Village Retreat: Walk to Charming Historic Town, Off Street Parking, Private Deck, Grill Marblehead - Kitchen - Dryer - Air conditioning - Outdoor space 2.0 1 review [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-09&endDate=2025-12-10&selected=109115211&PinnedHotelID=109115211&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fishing](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/92000000/91050000/91041600/91041582/34c650e9.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### SeaCity View: Wake Up to the Waves - Beautiful Beach View Stay Swampscott!

It was about 15 minutes away, but very close to downtown Marblehead. Very clean very nice. Highly recommend. ##### Ashlie H. Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mary M. 15 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful historic New England Town This is a gorgeous place to stay. It was beautifully decorated and the owners thought of every detail that would make our stay comfortable. They left recommendations for places to eat and shop, and they were all excellent choices. There are many places within walking distance, and Salem was just a short drive away. The neighborhood is quiet, and there is parking on the street right at the entrance to the apartment. ##### Mary M.

We were a little apprehensive about the tub/shower. It is very cute, but might be hard for someone to get in and out of. This would definitely be a 5 star, but giving it a 4.5 because of the tub/shower. ##### Julie R.
