    Rose I.

    I recently stayed in cottage 28 for 4 nights. My sister was in room 60. We were visiting with our little children and so excited for the family friendly amenities advertised on the website. Unfortunately, this was without a doubt, the worst vacation we have ever had. The service was miserable and borderline negligent. - [ ] Given a cottage above the maintenance shed. Walked in and it immediately smelled like mold as if it hadn't been aired out in months - [ ] Wad of hair in the bathroom tub and filthy window sills called housekeeping and they didn't even clean the bathroom just removed the hair - [ ] Ac not working in living room. Handy man admits the cottage isn't insulated and installs a window air conditioner. Also admitted AC vents and filter needed to be cleaned and that was contributing to the smell - [ ] Dinner with little kids at the hotel restaurant took double the time, our waiter hardly visited our table. false advertisement on the menu about ice cream on the kids menu, so frustrated just left. - [ ] Next day, cleaning lady comes in while I'm putting my toddler down. Forgot the DND sign but I'm singing lullabies and I have a Shusher on and she's entered the cottage and starts banging on the closed bedroom door to come in...finally I had to ask her to leave and then our room was never serviced that day. We were out of our room all day except 12-2 so there is no excuse - [ ] After cleaning lady leaves the inn starts using a table saw in the work shed that is directly under our cottage. Toddler is back up. Why are we staying above an active maintenance shed. Pictures attached - [ ] Pool has food service...took an hour and a half to get a hot dog for one kid - [ ] Ceremony chairs were strewn all over the property even though there was no ceremony, everything felt very sloppy and unprepared - [ ] beach chairs left on the beach all day and all night, everything was rusty and slimed, glad we brought our own chairs. I called specifically to ask about beach chairs and umbrellas, and when we arrived there were just lie flat pool loungers covered in rust and no umbrellas - [ ] Some of the houses are very far away from parking lot making it really hard to unpack. They offered a bell hop service but he would only make one trip and all they could fit were 3 small bags. So we still had to drag all our stuff up hill across the property - [ ] Landscaping weed whacking and mowing lawn at 8am. Woke my husband up after already sleeping horribly from staff shouting in the shed under our cottage and the worst mattress we have ever had to sleep on - [ ] Housekeeping being forced to work in the rain with no cover or rain gear - [ ] There was no private beach. Beaches were so covered with seaweed they were unusable. Why were they not raked? One beach was used to launch sails boats so unless you wanted to sit in ankle deep seaweed you had to go to the public beach - [ ] Parking: we were told the parking is for restaurant guest and hotel guests have to park in a satellite lot. Not family friendly at all - [ ] Whole trip felt like a scam and a false advertisement Since then - [ ] Staff has been rude and disrespectful over email and I had to escalate to owner. One staff member mentioned my 7 year old niece said she enjoyed her stay so it couldn't be as bad as I was saying...since when does the opinion of a polite 7 year old matter more than all of the listed issues? - [ ] Owner promised refunds, free stays and refund on dinner and we have not received it. He has since stopped answering our messages attempting to understand when we will see a refund.

    Fish Taco

    Was excited to try the Meridian restaurant at the Light House Inn in Dennisport. We have been coming here for years. It was disappointing when they closed but then the Pelham group reopened the property and restaurant. I've tried several times to make a reservation and no one ever picks up the phone. Left a message because no one answered and never got a return call. Not once but several times. So we decide to take a chance on a Sunday afternoon to have lunch with a beautiful view. The place looks great they did a nice job with the renovations. We ordered Lobster Bisque and it was delicious! I ordered the shrimp bowl which I don't know how you can get mushy shrimp. Tasted ok but the texture was nasty. The fish taco was ok but the guacamole was nasty and old tasting.it was delivered cold as well. So disappointing. The Meridain salad was wilted and the watermelon was old. We returned the salad and they did remove it from the bill. I don't think I will ever return for food but maybe a cocktail with a view.

    4 stars for the location of the Inn. Ocean view is priceless. 3 stars for the breakfast buffet. Decent breakfast sausages , home fries and fresh strawberries. No whipped cream for some reason. I wish the coffee was stronger. I would love to come back for dinner when it's open for the season.

    Fish Tacos, cold

    I really wanted to like this place! They have valet parking here, but no tickets are handed out to prove ownership of your cars. You could walk out with someone elses car and they'd have no way to prove it's not yours! When we made it to the hostess, we were seated early, and given outdoor seating as requested. The view of the beach was wonderful, though there was something else which ruined the outdoor seating for us. There was a large amount of seagulls flying around us, as per usual of a beach. The issue was that tourists from a tour bus who were staying in the hotel that night were constantly feeding the seagulls. This made them very aggressive, as multiple times throughout our meal, seagulls swooped down on other patron's tables and took food straight from their plates! To make this worse, the busboys were nowhere to be seen, so uneaten food laid out on empty tables for the seagulls to feed on. The tourists were eventually told to stop, but the damage had already been done. We had gotten a reservation late at night, the seagulls did fortunately go away once it got dark. Our appetizers came out very fast, but our entrees took well over 40 minutes. Half of our meals were warm, whilst the other dishes, (like the fish tacos which I ordered) were cold, likely from being made first and left out whilst the other dishes finished. The food was very average. On the contrary, our server, Clyde, was wonderful. He was doing amazing for how much he had to manage between the myriads of busy tables and aggressive seagulls! Overall, we may try this place again next year, as the beach view was gorgeous, though we hope the food will improve.

    Main Lighthouse Inn.

    Beautiful views at an historic inn. It looks like it was once a lighthouse as well. If you are looking for that classic "Cape Cod" experience this is it. Ocean views, salty breezes with loads of sunshine. A great place to unwind and relax. Nice restaurant and bar located on premises in the main building. The interior reminds me exactly of what any older inn near the ocean would be. The interior of the building is dark wood paneling with plenty of maritime decorations. There are many cottages and houses that can be rented. A nice pool, tennis courts and bikes to rent. West Dennis Beach is very close by. I would not recommend trying to swim at the inn. I have never seen a less inviting beach. They also have function rooms that may suit a wedding. The staff is super friendly. The food at the Inn was delicious. The cottages were clean and well kept.

    Pina colada
    Kristen M.

    Talk about nostalgia mixed with a true cape experience. Lighthouse inn may be known as a super popular wedding venue but it's more than that. ! Certain areas in cape cod have a warmth the second you walk through their doors and this is one of those areas. Lighthouse inn has a great menu and an amazing staff. Michelle the bartender is incredibly kind and accommodating. We came here with a bunch of kids and she was beyond helpful, splitting meals and virgin mudslides amongst them so we didn't have to waste food or money. She makes the absolute BEST pina colada and Frozé drinks. Spending an afternoon on the water in this cozy spot on a gorgeous sunny day with family is just something you cannot beat.

    Caprese salad with roasted blackened chicken

    What a view!!! We were here on a Tuesday so it wasn't that crowed. We were able to sit outside with a beautiful oceanfront view. A very cool gentleman was playing the piano, trumpet and singing in the lobby. I had a the special cocktail and it was delicious. A passion fruit, pineapple maker mark martini. The chef here actually makes real food. Not the normal fried cape cod stuff. We had the special Portuguese Kale soup and a salad and the vegan vegetable ravioli special with zucchini and marinara sauce. It was very good. I loved it.

    Hotel part of our stay was fantastic, beach side cottage with plenty of outdoor furniture available. Pool, mini golf, and shuffle board a huge plus if you're not a fan of the ocean. Restaurant experience not the best. Service was very slow, multiple servers but no one paying attention to tables in need of drinks or condiments. Food slow to come out and was underwhelming given the price point. I would recommend going to town for dinner like Skippers.

    LHI Firepit
    Michelle C.

    Perfect spot for sunset in West Dennis. Epic drinks, fire pit and all the olde Cape vibes (ie sand dunes and salty air:) Highly recommend!

    Michelle's rum punch and kindness was 100%!!

I've stayed here many times and chose different rooms that had ocean view or were ocean front. Each room was cute, comfortable, cozy. The inn is right on the beach and the prices are super affordable. I do go off season so that helps with the pricing. Breakfast is not served in the off season but I'm happy to bring food and make my own. There is a room at the basement level with a mini-fridge and basket for each room to store their food. There is also a closet with pots/pans, etc. and a stove for the guests' use. The eating area is my favorite spot with two tables, a coffee pot, tea pot, toaster, mini-fridge, dishes, and a wall of glass looking out onto the ocean. It is a very casual, comfortable place. Perhaps the casualness of it is what caused the only negatives I've encountered (but not negative enough for it not to be THE place for me). Once a mother and daughter were in the common room having a long and heated discussion/ argument. Another time a young boy took over the TV on a rainy day and stayed there for hours even though he could have used the TV in his room. I think people stay here so often that they get very comfortable, get to know the owners and act as though it's their house. Or maybe they are just inconsiderate. The Beach House Inn is my favorite place, I love bringing different people with me each time so they can experience it, and I can't imagine going anywhere else on the Cape.

The savory days were omelette with a choice of a variety of veggies and sausage, the side fruits were blueberries and strawberry, and toast rounded out the meal. I think they also had bacon but I passed and went full veggie. I had a tiny little balcony off my third story room. It didn't look fancy, but what a wonderful place to sit at night and enjoy a cool breeze. It was worth it for me. The shower was modernized and nicer than mine at home. The breakfast room is bright and pretty and a lovely way to start the day. If I returned I would choose a second story room as those were hardwood floors and the third floor was carpeting.

There's a candle pin bowling alley nearby, as well as bike trails, lake/ponds to kayak in, and other uniquely Massachusetts places to shop.
