"A harborside inn-and-cottages resort that masters classic New England chic while keeping up with the times, it celebrated its 100th birthday in 2023 with a top-to-bottom renovation of the 54-key hotel and 11 on-site cottages, added an artist-in-residency program, and refreshed interiors that nod to the island’s basket-weaving and seafaring heritage. Cerulean textiles, brass elephant-head door knockers, wood-and-leather armchairs, and marble accents complement ocean views, and the serene great lawn places you mere steps (or a complimentary three-minute bike ride) from the cobblestones and climbing roses of town." - Jessica Sulima
