Our Happy Place

This is a well-maintained spacious property that accommodates our large family (three generations). It is conveniently located and, in the eyes of my family, perfect. The libraries are spectacular, the dining area capacity huge, and the porches and deck great for relaxing. Highly recommended.

Relaxing on Block Island at Sandy's House

This is our second stay at Sandy's House. The location of the home, the spaciousness of the house with so many special locations - library, screened in porch, back deck, sunroom and more, has made it the perfect location for our extended family. Jennifer and team responded immediately to some small concerns that we had during the week. We cannot wait to return!

Perfect for large families

We stayed here for our third time and love this property. The house is spacious enough for everyone to be together at once, whether it’s in the kitchen or out on the deck. We enjoyed family dinners outside on the deck each night, watching the amazing sunsets. The large deck allowed us to relax and watch the airplanes coming and going from the nearby airport. The kitchen is excellent for preparing and serving meals for the whole family. There are many bedrooms and bathrooms to accommodate everyone. Jiff is easy to communicate with and makes check in and check out simple. We find the only draw back to this property is the small yard. We would enjoy family games of wiffle ball or croquet, but find the yard too small for that. However, all the positive aspects of this house outweigh that and we plan to stay here for many more summers. Thank you Jiff!

Multi Family Summer Trip

Delightful, comfortable home with lots of space to roam. Our group consisted of three families ranging in all ages and there was something for everyone. We all loved the two libraries! The kitchen had updated appliances and was plenty big with seating that easily accommodated our large group. Bedrooms were roomy with lots of windows, some with separate sitting rooms. We had a hot and humid week and were concerned about not having air conditioning but that proved not to be a problem. The way the house is situated the breezes and fans (provided) made it comfortable. The views and sunsets from the wrap around porches were a bonus. Great location, 1/2 mile walk to town, bike or short car ride to beaches. The house is handicap accessible. Jiff was very responsive and quick to remedy the (very) minor issues we had. Definitely recommend!

Wonderful Place!

We had an amazing family stay, the house was spacious with a lot of areas to relax, it was 15 of us including kids from infant to school age, and we have never felt crowded. Everyone had their own space and also we could spend dinners and other time together. The location was great, we walked a lot to town and around areas. Jiff was kind and very helpful with any questions! We are looking forward to have more future family time there!

Amazing week, spectacular sunsets!

Sandy's House over delivered! Our extended family comfortably had privacy and wonderful gathering spaces in the kitchen, large kitchen table to accommodate our group and outdoor seating for dinner. The location of Sandy's House is within easy walking distance to shops. The location on the island is off the beaten path, making for a peaceful local. We cannot wait to return. This is the perfect house for our large family. Thank you for the memories!

Sandy's House

Awesome, spacious, well equipped, quiet, scenic place close enough to town without being in town. The house has enough room for several families to spread out and have some privacy. The air moving throughout the house made the lack of air conditioning unnoticeable. The enormous kitchen made meal prep comfortable. The outdoor shower was amazing. We've been coming to the island for 20 years, this house is the best! We loved it here and can't wait to come back.

Another wonderful stay at Sandy’s House

This was our second year at this property with our large family and we love it. The many bedrooms are spread far enough apart to allow privacy and quiet time when needed. There are plenty of bathrooms and showers. The kitchen is large and allows the family to all gather together. The large deck has two oversized picnic tables that we utilized every night for our family dinner. The deck affords beautiful views of the island’s amazing sunsets. The airport is in the distance and it is entertaining to watch the planes come and go. The only minor drawback to this property as compared to others that we have stayed at is the lack of a yard. There is nowhere to play family games of wiffle ball or bocce. Despite that though, this is the perfect home in which to spend a relaxing Block Island vacation

Great house

10 of us spent an enjoyable week here. The house is clean and spacious. No one ever felt crowded. Kitchen is great for cooking for a crowd. Loved having 2 refrigerators in the kitchen! Ceiling fans and the wonderful breeze kept house comfortable. We had no mosquito issues and were able to enjoy the large deck well into the night. Property manager is responsive and easy to work with.

Family Retreat

Enjoyed a beautiful week here over Independence Day with my family and my sister's family. The house is a couple minutes from downtown, very comfortable and open. We enjoyed big dinners together, loved having a glass of wine on the deck at sunset. Kids were free to roam on their bikes - all over the island. This is our second stay here, we loved it!

Amazing Block Island home for a large family

We just returned from a amazing week at Sandy’s House. We traveled with our children, their spouses and our grandchildren. The house is spacious with plenty of bedrooms for everyone. There are enough bathrooms and showers to accommodate a large group also. We loved the open kitchen, which is extremely well stocked for cooking meals. The deck is large enough that we could eat dinner together every night and watch the sunsets. The airport is nearby and the grandkids were entertained watching the various planes and helicopters. This house is perfect for a large family to be able enjoy a special vacation together. We are already looking forward to next summer at Sandy’s House

Second stay

Sandys house is great. It first pur large family perfectly. We love the short walk to town but the privacy of the location. We were pleasantly suprised when we arrived that most of the house was freshly painted and spruced up. Old home but I’m good shape. Only thing that really needs and upgrade are the living room couches. Jennifer was great to work with and super responsive.

A Happy Surprise!

A little off the beaten path, yet a close enough walk to town, Sandy's Place was a pleasant surprise when we walked in. It's hard to tell from the pictures what you're getting, leaving us a bit worried about what we would find when we got there, but we were really happy when we saw this spacious and clean house. We had 20 people at one point and nobody ever felt crowded. The kitchen area is a great space for a large crowd, the deck is a relaxing place to hang out while watching the planes come and go, and the upstairs game table was constantly in use for Scrabble, Setback, Racko, and Scattergories. While Sandy's Place isn't brand new and perfect (also no central air), it was perfect for us and we had a fun week. Everyone enjoyed their time at the house, and our crowd didn't mind the walk into town or the drive to the beach. Jiff is an excellent property manager who was welcoming and in touch immediately about a new dryer that was installed during our week. I have no complaints, and I would definitely stay at Sandy's Place again with a large group of people.
