A Small State Yields Great Matunuck Rentals

Rhode Island may be a small state, but it presents an ideal place for vacationing by the sea. Cities like Nantucket, Matunuck, and Point Judith provide numerous attractions. Matunuck rentals line the beachfront. The sand and ocean are just steps away. As the sun rises, you can enjoy the view from your Matunuck vacation rentals. Sea life ranges from the occasional crab walking in the morning dew to spectacular whale sightings.

History Presented by Matunuck Vacation Rentals


Matunuck is a small village town in South Kingston, which is near Charlestown. The town obtained its name from a Native American tribe. Matunuck translates into “loot out.” The Narragansett tribe often summered in Matunuck because of its location. You can enjoy some of the same benefits this early tribe had by staying in one of the Matunuck vacation rentals. The Native American tribe stopped using the land when it was sold in the Pettaquamscutt purchase for colonists. These colonists realized the potential Matunuck homes could have. Now you can experience the same by finding Matunuck beach rentals for your vacation.

Enjoying the Heat at Matunuck Beach Rentals


Matunuck beach rentals run along the beaches of the village. Moonstone Beach, South Kingstown Beach, East Matunuck State Beach, and Roy Carpenter’s Beach allow you to soak up the sunny days of summer just a few steps away from Matunuck rentals. The state beach is open to the general public and hosts water activities such as surfing, wind surfing, and boating.

Entertainment Neighbors Matunuck Rentals


After a long day on the beach or in the water, the Theater-by-the-Sea can entertain you. Just a few minutes from most Matunuck rentals, the theater has four summer shows. The show, “My Way: A Musical Tribute to Frank Sinatra,” pleases many vacationers. Matunuck vacation rentals give you a chance to cook your own meals; however the Matunuck theater has a restaurant attached for evenings when you want to dine out. Tara’s Joyce Irish Pub is another location near Matunuck beach rentals with delicious food when you do not wish to cook.
