Negatives - not well maintained at all. Very few amenities in the room and the management has not kept up with basic repairs. Torn screens and broken windows in the rooms as well as poorly cleaned refrigerator where just a few of the problems with accommodations. Paint is chipping on the walls of the hotel and the stair cases are dingy and need upkeep. This is probably one of the more expensive hotels on the island , likely because of it's beach front location but unless they make some big changes it certainly not worth the hefty price tag!

This way we could make reservations for dinner,etc. She checked us in and made sure we had everything we needed. This is off season and she was by herself. I have to say she handled it very well. We had family on the trip with us who joined us for drinks and she attended to all of us and the other quests. She was the attending to the front desk, bartender, etc. She did not miss a beat. Impressive! We were on the island in Sept. My friends stayed here and loved it. I come often and have had brunch here, but this is the first time we've stayed. The room was spacious. My 10yr old loved her pull out bed. She asked us to stay longer she had so much fun. Our room was the Tosh. The view is great, they have cheese and wine in the evenings and like I said I've had their brunch, it's great. Emily checked us out and I asked if she would be there in Aug/Sept. Told her wood call her to book and I look forward to seeing her. She was amazing!! I also have to give Rita a shout out. I met her in Sept and she was such a gem to my friends who were staying there. They are all very accommodating.

The drinks were interesting- I had a pistachio martini. My husband had their iteration of an old fashioned. Both were fine. Dinner was good. Service was a little slow/spotty. Prices were high, but it is an island, so... We also returned to enjoy "happy hour" on the front lawn. There are Adirondack chairs lined up at the top of the slope of the front lawn, as well as groupings around tables on the lawn. Our server was very attentive and we shared seats with people looking to enjoy the afternoon. I think the lawn happy hour was a better experience than the dinner, for the sheer relaxing experience and better service.

This place is an absolute gem! I will give you the top three reasons why it's a gem-although there…read moreare many other "perks" which I will try to touch upon. First off, there was "Robyn"- I'd heard previous reviews , but honestly; until you meet her, you just have no idea how special this woman is!! When I say, she's a ray of sun shine-I mean it. She exudes positivity, kindness, graciousness!! She greeted us immediately, and gave us a brief orientation. Offered us lemon infused water, showed us where we can grab fluffy beach towels,, etc. gave us a tour of the grounds and incredible views. Then she showed us our room. She was extremely knowledgeable about the area-and made some wonderful dining recommendations. Our room was very cute. It has a country cottage appeal-bedding was high quality, as were the bath towels and toiletries. Our bed was so comfortable with the best pillows I've ever slept on. Bath robes were also provided, which was also such a nice touch. Our daily breakfast delivery was very special. I loved all of it-there was such an attention to detail-like a ramekin of Maldon salt flakes to add to the tomatoes on my lox and cream cheese bagel. Orange juice and coffee press every morning, and always a well balanced breakfasts. Eating off of hand crafted pottery made the meals even more appealing. I loved all those special touches. Any time we'd see Robyn in passing, she would always greet us with her beautiful smile and wonderful energy. She is such an asset to sea breeze. I'm sure the proprietors must know what an absolute gem they have in Robyn. Our room was close to the main road-so we did have to deal with a bit of street noise, however, it was also ticked all the way in back, which felt more private than some of the other cottages.

That being said, given that this isn't a cheap hotel, it was pretty disappointing.

A beautiful porch that surrounds the hotel. Seated immediately was a gift from the big man upstairs. They were definitely busy. But, we managed to get a seat for our 5 people. We were seated outside in the back of the porch. There was a lot of room to move around. Once seated we viewed the menu. We all opted for a few things. The street corn Quesadilla, lobster bisque, ancient grains bowl, Chicken Caesar Wrap. We opted for no desert and went elsewhere to spread the wealth. The food was good. They do what they can we the resources they have. It can't be easy with the way they have to get supplies in and out, and keeping things fresh. Overall everything was good. No complaints if you keep that in mind. The wait staff was ok. I think they maybe have been overwhelmed, which in turn our waiter went "missing" to the point where we had to ask someone for something and it turned out to be the manager. Otherwise everything was ok.

I especially love sitting outside, where you can watch the ferries come in, people strolling by, and catch a gorgeous sunset over the water. This time I brought friends along, a group of 11 including three kids. Since it was the end of the season, the place wasn't crowded and we were one of the few tables outside. Our waiter, a kind young man with the cutest British accent, took excellent care of us. He managed our large group with ease and made sure the kids' meals came out quickly. Every dish at the table was a hit, but the standout was one of the daily specials--the fresh-caught tuna. My husband ordered it, and OMG... it was phenomenal. This place is officially locked into my Block Island rotation.
