There’s something about Newport that invites you to slow down.
Maybe it’s the coastal air, the historic streets, or the way the ocean seems to set a steadier rhythm. Whatever it is, Newport has a way of gently pulling you out of daily routines and into a calmer pace — which is exactly why it’s the setting for the Newport Hidden Gems Escape.
This is not a packed itinerary or a go-go-go weekend.
It’s a thoughtfully designed coastal experience created for travelers who want ease, intention, and a little indulgence — without having to plan a thing.
What Is the Newport Hidden Gems Escape?

The Newport Hidden Gems Escape is a small-group weekend getaway in Newport, Rhode Island, designed for travelers who value meaningful experiences, beautiful settings, and time to actually enjoy them.
Every detail of the weekend is intentionally curated — from where you stay, to how your days unfold, to the local partners involved — so you can simply arrive, settle in, and feel taken care of.
This escape blends:
Coastal elegance
Wellness, yoga, and spa time
Local food and true hidden finds
Leisurely pacing
Just enough structure to feel supported, never rushed
Where You’ll Stay
Newport Marriott Resort & Spa serves as the home base for the weekend.
Set directly on the harbor, the property offers water views, walkable access to downtown Newport, and an exceptional on-site spa. Everything is close, connected, and easy — making it simple to move between exploration and rest without ever feeling hurried.
Having one beautiful, centrally located home base allows the weekend to feel seamless rather than scheduled.
What Makes This Escape Different
This is not a standard group trip — and it’s intentionally not built that way.
Curated, Not Crowded
With a limited number of guests, the experience feels personal, relaxed, and easy to settle into.
Built-In Breathing Room
There’s structure, but also space. Time to explore, rest, wander, or simply sit by the water without feeling like you’re missing something.
Thoughtful Local Partnerships
From dining to wellness experiences, the weekend highlights Newport favorites and genuine hidden gems — not tourist checklists.
Designed for Ease
You don’t need to research restaurants, coordinate logistics, or book experiences on your own. It’s all thoughtfully handled for you.
It’s balance.
It invites you to linger.
That’s where the hidden gems live.
