Staff is amazing. Dedicated to its customers. Shout out to Christi on how she handled our stay. She deserves a promotion. Ryam GM did great as well. Tish and Georgiana at the front desk were friendly, clam, and supportive. We got the wrong room assigned by Expedia, and BIBH had to fix it and well they did the best job they could....however Expedia messed up.

Anniversary stay

Location was great, beach chairs/umbrella service and prime seating area with bar and food right there along with views from room were the best thing about this place. Climbing 4 flights of stairs to get to my room in 90 degrees with no ac on first floor or in hallways/stairways was the worst. And the room was tight, felt a little closed in.

The aesthetics and cleanliness of the hotel and outside beach bar were great. Private, quiet pool area that was nicely maintained. Perfect location- just a short walk from the ferry port and close to restaurants and shopping. Would go back to the Block Island Beach House in a heartbeat!

DO NOT STAY HERE The front desk has no personality and they act like they are doing you a favor They have rooms they call "cottages" that are literally down the block no where near the hotel The room was INFESTED with ants The room had a burning smell in kids room from the air conditioning The room had an adjoining lock that had no door know for anyone to walk in The pool was literally down the block at a completely other hotel No one tells you this even when you get there I was told the "manager" was going to call me on six different occasions Still waiting for the call They did not want to be bothered You will truly regret staying here

The room was extremely noisy, in a busy part of town, and there were no available quieter rooms. It was also extremely small for what was advertised to be an upgraded suite. You're much better off finding an airbnb or vrbo for the same price.

Loved our stay, the property is in a great location and really enjoyed having access to the beach as well as a pool down the street. Check-in was a little bumpy as we stood at the desk for over 10mins before staff appeared to help but otherwise ALL staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. We also did not realize our room was not in the main building but down the road which at first we did not really like but it turned out fine and maybe even better! We definitely enjoyed the privacy of the guest house we stayed in and would not of gotten this in the main hotel. Plenty of parking. The room could have been cleaner as there was a dirty cotton round with makeup on it on the floor in the bathroom but things happen. Will definitely be returning!
