Captain Gosnold Village

We had a wonderful stay at Captain Gosnold’s village. It was really quite comfortable, and a Perfect location to the town, to catch the ferry’s, and walk to the beach. Our grill did not have gas, and was left quite dirty, but the issue was resolved immediately. The communication and follow through was stellar.

We rented unit#16B. It was very clean and exactly described in description and photos. Some minor things include broken tiles, a curtain rod, and a leak under the kitchen sink. The host did send someone to repair the leak. But the location was close to the beach, downtown, and supermarkets. There was a community pool that was also very clean and quiet. We really enjoyed our stay.

I cannot say enough great things about our stay! We arrived 90 min early to our unit being cleaned. The lovely cleaning lady called the management office to let them know we arrived, and in turn, they allowed us in 90 min early! It was much appreciated it. The unit (18A) was exactly like the photos - clean, cozy and well appointed. Enough space for my husband, myself and 7 year old son. The location was amazing - a quick walk to a few beaches and into town. We brought our bikes and biked EVERYWHERE - it was the best!! I know we will be back and this is exactly where we will stay again. Thank you!!

I was really looking forward to my time here. It was a cute village of condos/cottages. I arrived later in the evening and had difficulty locating my unit because there was minimal outdoor lighting in the parking area or on the driveway. The assigned parking spots are not clearly marked so it was challenging to find it in the dark (it was 8:30 p.) No big deal though-they warn you it's hard to see in the dark there and I appreciated the heads up. When I got into my unit, the place was clean, charming and cozy. But it was cold. There was no heater or any way to take the chill out of the place. It stayed this way my whole stay, where I would wear a sweatshirt to bed. Also, the front door has a large glass window so you can see out to the driveway. During the day, wonderful. At night, for a woman traveling alone in an isolated area, scary. And there was no shade to pull down. I spent my nights trying to avoid the door, especially because there was no way for me to hang a towel to block the view to the inside. When I called the number for the 24 hour service, I had to leave a message about my parking permit (you needed this to park there or be towed). I also texted a number. Thankfully they responded to my text and the parking permit was left for me in the door the next day. The shower was great. Lots of nice toiletries. I work from home and I was there during the day working. The housekeeping staff were in the unit next to me, talking on the phone, for almost an hour. I could hear every word as if they were standing in the room with me. The walls were not soundproof and if another person or family were there, I would have heard them and they me. Ultimately, I was so uncomfortable that I left two nights early. No one asked me why I was leaving and I was definitely not offered a refund for the unused nights. I don't think I will stay here again, but if did I would not do it alone and I would not want to share a building with others (no privacy) In response to the owner: Perhaps you could also leave information about where to find the heater/thermostat, then? So your guests don't have to be uncomfortable or wait for someone to answer their call?

Stayed 4 nights in a 3BR/3BA condo (6A) that was just adorable! The cottage, while dated, was so cute and quaint - exactly how you should experience the Cape! Jill and her staff are so welcoming and friendly, always smiling and waving in passing. The daily cleaning of the cottage was done while we were out and about (they watched our car) so it never interfered with our day and was done spotless. Everything and anything was cleaned/changed/replaced (towels, paper towels, garbage, etc.). The beds and couches inside were so comfortable; it was some of the best relaxation and sleep we had gotten in a long time! The village has many other cottages so it creates a small community feel, yet still private. 6A was especially private in that it had its own front patio/porch with a table, chairs and umbrella which made mornings and evenings lovely to sit, enjoy, and listen to the breeze in the big tree above. We were covered from any rain and it provided a refreshing shady spot to chill out. This place is a MUST! This is truly how the Cape should be done. Close enough to everything (walkable to beach, short drive to everything else), but far enough away to have a blissful retreat to yourself. Will stay here again every summer in cottage 6A, we can't thank you enough for a terrific vacation, Jill! :) :) - Jessica & Friends, July 2018

Just got back from our first trip to Cape Cod with our kids. We stayed in two different cottages because of availability (i.e. moved cottages after the first couple of days). The first was more updated than the other (wood vs carpet, large kitchen & island, dishwasher), but both were very clean, well equipped, spacious, and comfortable - plus the outdoor deck and bbq provided more space and cooking options. There was no air conditioning, but each room had a fan so that wasn't a problem for us. The location is great - a short walk to a nice (small) beach, and a quick drive to many other spots. The grounds are well kept, flowers everywhere. There are beach chairs, umbrellas, and other beach items to borrow which was nice to have. Wifi was included and worked great. Jill and the other staff we met were very friendly and helpful. Overall a great place to stay.

Our unit 16B at Captain Gosnold village was simply charming, and It was perfect for two. As soon as you entered you just wanted to take your shoes off, breathe and relax. The artwork was lovely and the wall of books was impressive, as well as the colored glass inserts in the doors. Everything we needed was there. It was spotless and well stocked with towels and bathroom toiletries. The bed was comfortable and clothing storage was more than ample. The two outdoor areas offered you your choice of seating for evening cocktails! The small but lovely Keyes Memorial Beach was within walking distance. Hyannis itself is a stones throw away! Check in was contactless and simple. We will Definitely return and hopefully for longer next time.

We stayed here a few years back and decided we’d return on this trip to America. The “village” is a collection of cottages, mainly semi-detached ones, in a lovely location – quiet peaceful grounds and easily walkable to the beach. Hyannis’ Main Street is about a mile away.||||Whilst the Village is obviously a commercial set-up, it is not the slightest bit corporate. And, in that, is much of its charm. But don’t expect corporate levels of maintenance – a coat of paint may be needed here and there, or the deck furniture may be well past its prime. But, inside our cottage, all was fine – comfy beds, equipment to cook if you wish (our self catering didn’t extend beyond opening a box of cereal – good breakfasts otherwise at the Sea Street Café). And here’s a good range of TV channel sand excellent Wi-fi.||||But, on the subject of technology, whilst the Village has a website, there’s no online reservations. Nor, most oddly, do they even have email. All arrangements have to be conducted by telephone and snail mail – not the easiest if you live on a different continent, several time zones away. ||||But it is the peace and quiet that drew us back. Whilst we did do some fairly relaxed touristy things around the Cape, I think I most enjoyed the time sitting and reading on the deck, watching the wildlife pass by. It’s an excellent way to forget life’s troubles for a while.

Very cute cottages. We stayed in the A, B and C cottages 06/06-06/09. Totally cute and comfortable. Although the cottages are dated it served us well. Nice and roomy and close to all! Would love to come back soon!

We stayed in one of their one bedroom cottages recently and liked it alot. It was one of the best values for the money for what you get. The cottage was very large with a kitchen and comfy bedroom with a large living room and attached deck. Very private too. The women in the office told us that each cottage has a different owner, so I got the impression that this wasn't so much a motel as it is individual condo-cottages that are for rent. They do have a pool on the grounds but we never used it. So if you have to stay in Hyannis for some reason, (we found the town totally boring compared to Provincetown) then I would highly recommend Captain Gosnold.

OK, this is a cute little place, very close to our house, and when we had guests for a family party, we suggested that they stay here....it's within walking distance and the price was v. good. When we booked the rooms, the woman on the phone said that there was a mandatory gratuity. My guests got here about 12 hours late because of an airline delay. We had prepaid for the room, so we didn;t think it was gonna be a huge deal. WRONG! The owner?/manager CALLED MY HOUSE AT 11PM to find out where they were, and to remind us that there was a mandatory tip. When my guests checked in, the manager? harrassed her for the tip...whcih had to be in cash, wouldn't let her have the key til she paid it up front. Mighty odd behavior, methinks!

The cottages are excellent and very livable. However, the service is not good. We had much difficulty getting towels and wash cloths. Evening assistance is limited. Office closes at 8:00pm and is not user friendly.

We just finished up a 5-day long weekend trip there. To start, the place is cute and has a great location. It's also a great price before the summer season begins. I like the gas grills, the cleaning service, the cable TV + internet. BUT. The place is dingy, old and moldy smelling. We constantly had the windows open, in hopes of airing out the place, but it was always dingy smelling. While we like the amenities and location, we do not plan on returning.

Charming accommodations in a community of cottages with weathered grey shingles and pink shutters (a bit of "Old Cape Cod," albeit updated), a block in from the Sea Street Beach. Different cottages are owned by different individuals (a condominium ownership arrangement with on-site management for rentals, housekeeping & maintenance). The cottages vary in size and amenities, but all have kitchenettes w/ dining areas, and decks or porches with gas grills. There is a swimming pool in the middle of the compound, nicely screened in with evergreens, and a small playground for children. The pool is very clean, and the lawns/shrubs/grounds are impeccably maintained. The place seems to have many guests who come year after year (many of them from overseas), always a good sign when looking for lodgings. If you would like to stay in a place a bit away from the hustle-bustle of downtown Hyannis, relax with a gin & tonic on your own deck, and not have to take every meal in a restaurant, this might be the ideal place for you.
