The amazing front desk team (Jacob et. al), restaurant team and valet team made our  recent stay at the Inn a special and memorable experience.
The relais chateaux tradition of excellence and attention to detail is truly maintained at the Weekapaug.
Thank you to everyone who delivered the  extraordinary level of service and hospitality we received during our recent stay.


a little bit of paradise

My husband and I just returned from a wonderful long weekend visit at the Weekapaug Inn.  Our spacious and comfortable suite had a scenic view of the salt ponds.  Our bathroom had all the amenities that we needed including bathrobes which we wore to the pool and hot tub.  We also enjoyed a nature way on the beach,  bike riding, yoga class and a boat ride on the salt ponds.  Chef Andrew's meals were plated beautifully and tasted even better. The waiters were very attentive as well as all the employees that we encountered at the Inn.  

Wonderful Visit

A weekend at the Weekapaug Inn, regardless of the weather, is a treat for the senses. Pouring rain dampened activities outdoors, but a crackling fire and friendly staff made our indoor time feel like a visit to a manor house.
The highlight of our stay was a family wedding. As the weather cleared, expert staff arranged the rolling lawns for the ceremony. We utilized every space in this lovely inn including a huge tent. Meals were served by a team of well trained staff who kept an eye on our needs which were met unobtrusively. Our sincere thanks to all of the staff who serviced us with efficiency and a smile. You truly brightened our stay.

Like sunshine on a rainy day

I do not recommend staying here, especially if you are travelling with a pet. While they advertise that they are one of the top pet friendly hotels in New England I would beg to differ. My husband and I have stayed at this property a couple of times before and while the grounds are lovely, the staff has always left something to be desired for the true "luxury" experience. Before booking my husband called the hotel to confirm all of the pet policy details as the website info wasn't clear and we now know the true pet policy is buried in links within links. We were told that our dog was not allowed on the beach due to town rules but would be allowed on the lawn and pool area...great we decided to book!

We checked in just before noon and were told our room was not ready but we could enjoy the amenities so we decided to lay by the pool which was nearly empty aside from the kids doing cannonballs in the pool. As soon as we entered the pool area we were approached by a server who did not ask our guest info, offer a towel, menu or anything else but instead asked if our dog was a service dog. When we said no we were told we would need to leave. I reiterated what we were told and a few moments later a manager came out letting us know our dog was not welcome in the pool area....so because our room wasn't ready our only option was to sit on the lawn.......

I decided to check out right then and there. I understand if policy is policy however how the situation is handled could have been improved dramatically. When you are paying nearly $1,500 a night and then an additional $200 to have your dog with you the approach is simply not acceptable and the lack of communication on their team's part is 100% at fault. Our dog was sitting quietly, disturbing no guests and making no noise so this could have been addressed at a later time. Additionally there is no kitchen in the pool area so I struggle to understand how health code could be a part of this. The way to handle it should have been to approach us if there was a problem and or mention it at check in. 

Outside of this experience it was clear that they had gone down hill. In front and next to the pool area there was a crew taking down an event from the night before- making noise and speaking loudly with one another when this is a relaxation area of the resort. The pool/gym bathroom was completely filthy with garbage on the floor and there were kids being extremely loud as well as fresh bird poop on several of the lounge chairs. It seems there were more pressing matters the staff could have been dealing with rather than being concerned over our dog. 

Lastly, there was very minimal parking and we were forced to park in a staff area. Never once did the valet approach us or offer to help with our car/bags. I do not recommend staying here.

Beware- they claim to be pet friendly but are barely pet tolerant

Beautiful ambiance and scenery... attentive service especially for my allergies.. do try the chocolate mousse dessert.. worth the drive if you live in the area and want a relaxing and beautiful summer lunch

Lovely lunch!

My wife and I had a fantastic time for a last minute getaway a week before Christmas.  The room was great, had a wonderful diner, sat by the fire and walked on the beach.  The amenities were super and the staff could not have been more friendly and accommodating.  Also loved the fitness center.  Will make sure it's an annual trip going forward!

Great getaway a week before Christmas!

My husband and I wanted a few days get away from the city in late August and we selected the Weekapaug Inn.  It really filled the bill.  The property is beautiful, located on a salt water pond and the open ocean with a private Inn beach very nearby.  The service is outstanding.  They have a naturalist on staff and provide all kinds of water and land activities.  When we arrived we mapped out lots of potential activities but ended up mostly relaxing at the beach and pool recharging.  Everyone anticipates your every need.  Our room was clean and well outfitted.  The white noise machine even played ocean sounds, so that you could enjoy the air conditioning and be lulled into thinking you were hearing the waves.  Although we were traveling as a couple the Inn had many families and dogs.  We found the atmosphere friendly and not stuffy.  We appreciated the diversity of ages at the resort--there were several multi-generational families as well as couples of all ages.  We ate most of our meals at the inn.  Breakfasts were excellent, served on an outdoor terrace.  The one meal we had in the formal dining room was also top-notch.  The other meals, lunches and dinners, on deck, were fine.  Again in the case of the meal service the staff really set the experience on a higher plane.

Relaxing by the Ocean

We spent two nights in July of 2022 at the Weekapaug.  It was our first stay, and we will definitely be back.  It's an understated place, but luxury abounds.  The most tasteful furnishings and exquisite landscaping.  

So much attention to detail.  Housekeeping was flawless.  When I left a book facedown on the nightstand, I came back and the book had a bookmark in it.  Different sweet treats left for turndown service each night (locally made chocolates, taffy).  Excellent selection of current magazines in the room.  Room was spotless when we arrived and each time they cleaned.

One night we had dinner at the inn and it was delicious.  Server was friendly and helpful. Before dinner on the deck overlooking the pond, we played bocce on the lawn as the sun set.  It was idyllic.

Front desk was friendly and helpful. We chartered a boat for a 2 hour cruise and the front desk helped us make the reservation.  Hannah was particularly kind in greeting us each day and asking us about our day, if we needed anything, etc.  

The next morning we rode bikes provided by the inn down to the beach and swam.  We had the beach to ourselves.  Pool is lovely too.  I enjoyed reading by the pool in one of the chaise lounges and then taking a dip.

If you are looking for a place that is luxurious but not pretentious, this is it.  
Ocean House is too flashy for our taste, but the Weekapaug is a perfect fit.
We will be back!!

Wonderful weekend!

After Delta cancelled our summer trip to Asheville on a Monday I called the Weekapaug Inn from the airport and booked their last room for Tuesday. This beautiful resort was a great impromptu plan B for my husband and myself. Having been to the Ocean House twice in the winter we were excited to explore the area in the summer but wanted a pool so decided to try the Weekapaug Inn instead. The resort is set in the most idyllic setting and we loved the various activities you could do (pool, kayaking/paddle boards in the pond, beach down the street, and a host of resort run activities. We took the last room in the hotel which faced the pond so it was a great view (my style is generally more modern looking but understandably so that’s not the vibe of the place). We thought everyone working there was incredibly friendly and if you aren’t aware they have these great (and incredibly challenging) puzzles that make for a great evening or rainy day activity. We did yoga twice and thought both activities were great. We also borrowed the hotel’s Volvo to test drive which was fun and took it to breakfast at the Cooked Goose (highly recommend).  

Where I think the hotel can do better:
- like everywhere else the hotel is short staffed. Dinner was very slow and we saw another couple at the Cooked Goose for breakfast because they gave up on waiting for breakfast. As someone alluded to we even saw the super hard working general manager cleaning up at the pool. At the Ocean House where we went to dinner (and where they seemed to have an abundance of staff) our entrees took over an hour to come out so the meal was comped. I know this is happening everywhere, it’s just harder to stomach when you are paying 1000+ a night. They also were out of so many things that they advertise - no foam pillows, no scones or muffins at the beach bar, no pedal boats to borrow, no chairs set up by the beach when we arrived at 10am and no one who was able to set those up).
- guests at the hotel can play tennis at a local “pond club” which is a plus. The downside that we didn’t realize is that pond club members use the hotel pool. In the am this means a lot of members come to swim laps (and they were all talking quite loudly, ignoring our yoga class trying to be zen). And in the later afternoon you have a lot of club families show up disturbing the peacefulness of the pool area. I’m assuming the hotel benefits from this arrangement but it’s a real downside for guests hoping for a more relaxing atmosphere.

Overall we had a great time and were ao thankful to snag the last room of the week!

Impromptu Vacation Plan

﻿My wife and I selected Weekapaug based on our daughter’s recommendation as a previous guest and our wish to drive to a resort from New Jersey. We were delighted with our 4 night, midweek July stay. We arrived in the rain on a Monday, early 2:00 pm arrival accommodated.  Dinner on the Deck very nice, perhaps the best NE clam chowder ever. Sunshine on Tuesday, so after breakfast in the restaurant, we had the hotel shuttle bring us over to the lovely beach. Staff quickly set up chairs and an umbrella. Sound water warm at 69 degrees, easy in and out. Our room was #37, great table and chairs overlooking the Inn entrance.  Coffee, tea and sodas just down the hall, all day access. Highlight was the Thursday evening Lobster Boil, outdoor tables on the water, great buffet, steel drum player. All staff was most welcoming, could not do enough for you. We enjoyed talking to our waiter on the Deck from Ocho Rios. Impeccable twice a day maid service. Only improvement opportunities would be to add milk to the floor coffee areas and a few more chaise lounges at the pool. We had a lovely time here!
