Ship Watch Inn Reviews
Location, location, location! This bed and breakfast is situated right on the water by the bridge and next door to the Bayard Restaurant where you can hear live music playing in the late afternoon. We loved sitting on the back deck watching the ships come and go. Everything is in walking distance. There was a s'mores station for the outside fire pit table surrounded by Adirondack chairs. The big jetted tub was amazing!
You're making a mistake if you don't stay here. This place is so charming and breathtaking. Every detail from the decor, to the fresh coffee and baked goods, to the provided outdoor activities (weather dependent) was just perfect. Customer service was top-notch, and we felt so welcome and comfortable here. Absolutely will stay again in the near future.
We had a really great weekend went with eight other couples we had the whole building to ourself wonderful view rooms were very clean staff was very pleasant and helpful lots to do in this area there's all kinds of restaurants little bars boat tours and all kind of things to do I enjoyed setting on the deck and watching the ships go by a lot of lot of people here very busy area but very nice atmosphere recommend coming here even if it's only for one night give it a try I think you'll like it.
My husband and I just stayed for our 5 year wedding anniversary. This is the cutest bed and breakfast. The room was stylish and tastefully decorated. The bed was comfortable and had enough pillows for anyone's liking. The bathroom was huge. And the views!!! The views never got old. There were goodies and treats always out and plenty of drinks to help ourselves to. While we didn't stay for breakfast it looked delicious and the staff were so friendly and always making sure we had everything we needed. We did get a cheese plate and enjoyed it on the deck while watching all the boats/ships pass by. We just got home and are already talking about our next trip down!! Thank you for an unforgettable weekend getaway
Great place to stay, excellent food and friendly service. We have been here several times to celebrate anniversaries and other occasions. The staff are friendly and attentive and the breakfasts are wonderful. Special touches abound and each room is clean, bright and tastefully appointed. Rooms are on 3 floors so consider whether steps will be a problem in choosing your room. A special door code is provided after reservations are made so you can come and go as you wish. A warm eating and relaxing area downstairs, with shelves stocked with snacks, games, books and more. Restaurants, bars and interesting shops are within easy walking distance. Parking is very limited, especially on the weekends, so guests may need to park a block or more away.
