Great location just off the sand! The staff here are excellent, very helpful and accommodating. The owners are also great! We had my family stay here during my wedding at Wychmere. Everyone enjoyed their rooms and were comfortable. They also liked the view of the beach right outside.

We attended a wedding and decided to extend our stay. This place is perfectly situated - private beach and walking distance to town with all the shops and restaurants. Check in was a breeze and the staff could not be nicer.

We were in Harwichport for 1 night, had reservations at a different hotel. We just happened to drive by the Inn on the Beach and I immediately knew we had to stay there. We called up the Inn and Leslie was absolutely wonderful helping us get a room that we could check into within the hour! Keyless entry so we got a code and easily got into the room. Our room was absolutely beautiful, spotless, and had everything we could need. Bathrooms were on the smaller size in our room but we hardly noticed. The location is absolutely stunning right on the water and they have their own beach entry. I am blown away by the service and quaintness of this Inn and we will definitely be back!! Thank you so much!

Inn on the Beach is such a jewel of a place! We loved the quiet setting, wedged as it is on a section of beach-front on Nantucket Sound. Colorful flowers bloomed in window boxes outside rooms. Our room was roomy enough for our one-night purposes. It was squeaky clean and very attractive, with a comfortable bed and a small private patio. We enjoyed sitting in recliners enjoying the late afternoon sun and listening to the waves wash onto the shore. Breakfast was ample and varied. The fresh fruit was highly appreciated. We chose to eat inside with a direct view of the shore, but some folks sat outside. Leslie was very welcoming. She introduced herself immediately, and made us feel welcomed. Would we return--in a heartbeat!

We stayed at Inn on the Beach the week after Easter. Perfect mid-cape location. Breathtaking views of the ocean. Steps from the beach. The owners were friendly, accommodating and always available. It was a relaxing, restful stay!!!

We recently stayed at this charming inn for a wedding weekend, and everything about our experience was exceptional. The inn has been newly renovated and is absolutely spotless—everything felt fresh, clean, and thoughtfully designed. Our room was cozy and well appointed, on the smaller side side however had everything we needed. What really made the stay memorable, though, was the innkeeper. Warm, welcoming, and genuinely friendly, they made us feel like we were visiting an old friend or family member rather than staying at a hotel. The location couldn’t have been better—just steps from a quiet, peaceful beach and within easy walking distance to the wedding venue, as well as downtown shops and restaurants. It was the perfect balance of relaxation and convenience. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay for such a special occasion. Highly recommend, and we’d love to come back again!

Cannot say enough great things about our experience at The Inn! What a beautiful, private, quiet location with amazing views and wonderful accommodations. We fell in love with Cape Cod and staying here really made it that much better. Our room was super clean, very welcoming, and so cute. I would stay here again and again. We cannot wait to come back again!
