The website for the Captain's Manor Inn does not do it justice…read more Planning a reunion with college girlfriends and selecting a place sight unseen was a bit nerve wracking. Any worries or concerns that I may have had disappeared the moment we pulled into the drive. From the impeccable landscaping to the timely and friendly greeting from the Inn owner, Pattie started the weekend off perfectly. She was both warm and inviting. She took the time to show us her beautiful property and all of its personalized, beautiful features and amenities. The rooms were spacious, impeccable and adorned with all of the luxuries you may want for a comfortable stay. The housekeeping crew left the room spotless and tidy each day as well. Watching Pattie work and care for her guests make the stay just that more special. She truly cares about her guests comfort. My friends and I were able to enjoy her delicious, homemade breakfasts (we could have done better of keeping her informed of any culinary preferences but she was able to accommodate a few reasonable requests). She has truly thought of every detail---from coffee/tea/filtered water access all day to homemade cookies ! Sitting on the veranda together whether in the evening or morning after breakfast, we were able to settle in surrounded by trees and enjoy one another's company. We loved it so much we are thinking of making this an annual visit. Thank you, Pattie for creating the perfect environment for us to laugh, talk and create memories until our next reunion!

I have such mixed feelings about this place that I feel bad writing this review, but maybe it'll…read morehelp so here goes nothing. The property is well-maintained and clean. The rooms & common areas were tastefully decorated. My only gripe is that there is no fridge in the room. We were allowed to use the main fridge in the kitchen, but it's shared with everyone and can't be used while breakfast is going on, so I had to plan ahead if I wanted to take a drink out for breakfast and, obviously, it wouldn't be cold as a result. Mini fridges in the rooms would be great! They also had great toiletries (e.g., shampoo that doesn't make your hair feel like hay.) Service: This inn is run by husband and wife, Pattie and Randy. Pattie seems very well-intentioned and was helpful. She greeted us with a smile, answered all of our questions, had ferry tickets ready for the Vineyard, and was happy to provide recommendations for things to do, how to get to places, and so on. She was the quintessential innkeeper. Breakfast is served every morning and was delicious. Pattie was meticulous about dietary restrictions, which the three of us who had some very much appreciated. As a pescatarian who has been served clam chowder with bacon (after a lengthy convo about not eating meat) and had numerous encounters with people who don't understand that chicken is not a vegetable, I am grateful for people in the service industry who take dietary restrictions seriously. I didn't feel like I needed to ask her about every breakfast item to make sure I wasn't inadvertently eating meat because it was clear that she was already on top of that. They have about 6-8 tables out on the veranda and the innkeepers made sure that everyone would be seated promptly and with their entire party. Sounds great, why the hell did you only give it three stars? Randy. When I first met Randy, I thought he was funny in a deeply sarcastic way. Problem is, it quickly became clear that the sarcasm was mostly just him being rude and judgmental. Some examples follow but they're certainly not the only uncomfortable interactions we had with him: (1) when asked what kind of juice we wanted, both my husband and I said orange. He told us we were unoriginal. (2) when we disclosed we were going to Provincetown for whale-watching and walking around town, he told us he doesn't appreciate his guests doing that. His GUESTS, who paid a little under $1700 per couple for three nights at this place, were all vaccinated (and provided proof of such) and regularly wear masks, especially in indoor spaces had to worry about whether or not he approves of our vacation plans. In fact, when we first checked in, I wore a mask the entire time. I only took it off after noticing that Pattie wasn't wearing one so I figured they were comfortable with us not being masked because they had proof of our vaccine status. All the other guests also did not wear masks. (Writing reviews during COVID is bizarre.) I get his hesitancy (somewhat): we visited in late August of 2021; there was a COVID outbreak in Provincetown in early July of 2021. It was contained and Provincetown has been strictly enforcing masking since then. Plus, this outbreak was related to the Delta variant, which isn't unique to Provincetown. They never told us before we checked in that they were so concerned about Provincetown. We had already purchased tickets to whale-watching and weren't about to throw away $65/pp because the host of the place we paid to sleep at night didn't like it. If COVID is that serious of a concern they should either (1) warn their guests explicitly about these restrictions before booking or (2) not run their business during COVID. By the way, Provincetown was awesome. Loved whale-watching & Commercial St., while touristy, isn't depressingly so. I highly recommend a trip there! If you go, The Lobster Pot should absolutely be your lunch stop! (3) on the day we checked out, I saw Randy and asked if Pattie was around so that I could provide her with my credit card. Randy went to the entrance where there was apparently a bell to summon Pattie. I was next to the bell. He could've easily walked to the OPPOSITE side of the counter to ring the bell. Instead, he told me he likes to keep about 8' of distance and had me move to the other side of the room so he could ring said bell. I get social distancing and am happy to abide, but don't make your guests feel like lepers. He could've asked ME to ring the bell, or told me WHY he needed me to move. Instead, he told me he needed the 8' as he moved towards me so I could get out of his way. It was awkward and uncomfortable. One of my friends started wearing her mask--despite that neither Pattie nor Randy wear masks in their inn--because she also felt like he was being really judgmental and treated us like walking COVID hotbeds. (4) it seems they don't pay employees well? Randy made some comments about how they can't keep their help around b/c the gov't providing unemployment

The B&B is very clean and well apportioned, and the breakfasts are delicious. To be honest we found the Delano Homestead through a random Google search and weren't expecting much, but were really delighted by the quality and beauty of this well-run B&B. A shout-out to Sharyn, the manager, who went out of her way to make sure our stay was enjoyable. Very personable and a great breakfast chef, she checked and double-checked our requirements and generally made us feel very welcomed. She also has the neatest handwriting I've ever seen in a human being. We'd gladly stay here again, and can heartily recommend this B&B to anyone thinking of staying in the Fairhaven-New Bedford area.

Dave and Megan are the consummate B&B hosts: helpful, friendly, knowledgeable, and respectful of guests' privacy. They were able to give us a lot of information on local activities, including great restaurant and destination tips. Their breakfasts were tasty and sumptuous. Their warm, generous, and humorous demeanor made us feel comfortable and relaxed. They welcomed us into their home and even allowed us to join a small party they were having one night with friends. The Daffodil Room was lovely. Dave told us up front that this room has two beds together to form a queen sized bed - we did not notice any difference. Bathroom is clean and well-maintained, with modern plumbing smoothly integrated with the charm of the old home. The living room is well-stocked with books and cozy furniture, and has a fireplace. Dave and Meg built a wonderful fire for us there, and we were glad to pass a lazy rainy day in front of it, reading old classic books from the shelves.

What started out as a one star review has elevated to a five star thanks to a very professional and…read moreefficient general manager in Clayton Walsh. He wisely intervened after I left my Boston Bruins scarf there over the New Year's holiday. I called the evening I lost it and was told they would put it in the mail and took my credit card number. I waited about a week and didn't hear and then called back and left a message. I was transferred to a front desk supervisor and received a call back saying that my original credit card number was written on a piece of paper that was shredded and therefore my package could not be mailed. I provided the credit card number again and expected the package this week. I was told I would get a voice message when it was mailed and that never happened. I called back and left a message and was told it would "go out in the mail today". Today I received a call from Clayton indicating that when they went to process the credit card at the post office the number would not go through and that he would put it in the mail for me no charge. I thought this was very responsible on his part considering our status level with Marriott and the fact that it is pretty much the only hotel chain we use and the fact that I provided our credit card number twice to hotel personnel. Anxious to get my scarf back as the Bruins are still in first place! Thanks Clayton! The hotel was very clean and nicely appointed; we had some trouble up on the fifth floor with noise but again it was New Year's night and so perhaps they were still people who were oblivious to the fact that they were in a hotel room and that other people could hear them celebrating at 2 AM. Certainly not the hotel's fault and if it really bothered me I would've called down to the front desk and had them take care of it. Our room had a lovely view of the cranberry bogs!

Front desk staff were okay. I'll be honest - I've never thought about it until it didn't happen: in over 700 (yes 700) stays at Marriott hotels, this is the first time the staff checking me in didn't say, "Thank you for being a platinum member" & didn't ask if we wanted points or market place item. When I offered, "we'd like points, please," all she said was, "I see your member number." Odd response & didn't really confirm that she was giving us points rather than market item. Dead rat right outside the entrance was unnerving- staff didn't seem like they wanted to do anything with it, & only put it in the outside trash can because another person staying insisted the rat be disposed of/removed from line-of-sight.
