“A Bit of Heaven on Earth”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 August 2007

people found this review helpful

THIS is the place to stay in Marblehead - period.
My husband and I with our two teens stayed at One Kimball for four days in August. When we first saw the house we thought this couldn't be the place because it was just too good to be true. A big beautiful historic home in exclusive Marblehead Neck overlooking the water. Our hosts Rich and Day Newburg were warm and friendly. They have done an amazing job in restoring and decorating their gorgeous home. There are only two suites in this B&B, so it is private and spacious (and each suite has ocean views). The breakfasts were delicious. The house was very cozy and welcoming and devoid of kitsch. What a great feeling being there - we hated to leave!

“Location, Location, Location in Marblehead”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 October 2006

It was refreshing to find a beautiful inn free of the kitchyness and frou-frou of a typical B&B. Our delightful hosts Day and Rich have done an outstanding job in restoring and decorating this historic property. The view of the Marblehead light and harbour from the back porch is a living postcard. Both of the B's were wonderful---the Bed was most comfortable as the Breakfast waiting outside our door was delicious. Our early departure was accommodated without hesitation. The only thing we would do differently is to stay longer next time!

  • Liked — Location, quiet, and comfort
  • Disliked — Narrow staircase to the 3rd floor. Existing elevator does not reach there.
  • Tips/Secrets — Stay more than one night
  • Stayed October 2006, travelled as a couple

My wife, daughter, and mother went with me to Marblehead, Mass. for a weekend. Owners of One Kimball, Rich and Day, were very inviting and friendly. The rooms a wonderful and clean. If you want a child friendly B&B, this is your place they were wonderful.

“Great New Marblehead B&B”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 August 2005

people found this review helpful

My wife and I had a wonderful long weekend at the newest B&B in Marblehead: One Kimball. The Inn has just undergone an extensive renovation and our room had a wonderful view of the lighthouse and harbor. The hosts, Rich & Day along with daughter Maya and dog Lincoln are extremely warm and friendly and served a lovely continental breakfast in our room. There was a lot to do in town - Rich and Day grew up in the area - and knew the sites to see. I highly recommend a relaxing weekend in Marblehead at One Kimball.
