Just returned from 5 days/4 nights at Seaward Inn. We - two couples - had a wonderful time. The inn was exactly what we were looking for - quaint, charming and comfortable. We stayed in the cottage which was so cozy and pleasant as well as providing us with everything we needed. Of course the views of the ocean were... More

All of us at the Seaward Inn are so thrilled to read your gracious review (what a wonderful start to the season), and we were so privileged to host such lovely guests! The quaint charm, peaceful ambiance, genuine serenity, quintessential New England hospitality and spectacular setting right on the Atlantic has been welcoming guests, like yourselves for nearly 70 years...

A quaint, homey Inn with a million dollar view! My family and I have been visiting this little gem since my 23 year old was born...a throw back to a gentler time...wonderful food, gracious hospitality...the Innkeeper lovingly runs this Inn which has been in her family for generations. We try to stay here once a year, but head up there... More

Wow. Apparently someone named George Clooney and other people with famous names have stayed here but I can't imagine they're the famous ones. This place puts the RUST in rustic. Where to start...? Parking: Only on the street....can't use their driveway to park. Walking in: the screen door has no regulator so it slams so hard it will wake the... More

Wow, where to start is true on our end, as well. We are always struck by the cavalier manner in which the few negative reviews, such as yours, randomly arrive, without warning, to sock us in the face. Do you not understand there are people behind the place, trying hard to please? …Owners and employees who care about our guest... More

Three months ago, they confirmed a block of rooms we'd reserved for our wedding guests. Out of the blue, they gave most of our block of confirmed rooms away to long-term customers who they just "couldn't turn away." Were unprofessional and even a little patronizing when we reacted negatively to having our wedding accommodations cancelled. Yes, "everyone makes mistakes"- but... More

We are surprised by your suggestion that we were patronizing in regard to this issue. No one, on our end, has felt anything but remorse. As discussed directly, some of the rooms in question were being held, and were secured, for an annual family reunion, which has taken place on the same weekend each year for the past 10 years....

Stayed one night in October in room 104 - garden view/king bed/hardwood floors. The room & the inn were clean, spacious, and comfortable. The room is basic (tube tv, etc...) but met all of our needs. The staff were all very pleasant and made sure we had everything we needed, especially during breakfast, which we enjoyed. Location was good, right... More

The descriptive adjective for staying at this great spot in Rockport is "accommodating." Nancy and all the staff do a great job of making you welcome upon arrival, comfortable while visiting and sorry you could not stay longer. As an inn keeper she has to be pleased her guests have enjoyed their stay. For my family we just completed our... More

A return visit to a wonderful oasis by the sea. A great getaway to rest, relax and enjoy family. Nancy and her staff were most gracious and anxious to make our visit a pleasant and memorable one. The rooms, the gorgeous grounds with the beautiful ocean views and delightful breakfasts made for a perfect weekend. Thank you Nancy.......
