Loved the Masthead

It was our 54th wedding anniversary. 1971 we honeymooned in PTown. I was so fortunate and delighted that we choose the Masthead. It was perfect. Beautiful location, clean, comfortable. We had a small unit, but it was perfect. I want to go there again!

Delightful experience, very clean, in the quiet area on the west end so a bit away from 'downtown' but plenty close to walk. Resort has a portion of the beach to itself, you feel at home there, thoughtful cottage like amenities (needs, home tools, broom). I enjoyed not being imposed on as I don't like services and didn't need them. It showed that there was care and real thoughtfulness, had all the basics in decent supply, and encourages green living but doesn't force it.

Loved staying at the Masthead! Staff was courteous and accommodating, the cottage was so cute and nautical themed. I only wish I could've stayed longer. If you're looking for oceanfront AND quiet in P town, this is the place to go.

The location is just perfect: within walking distance to the town center, but located on the beach and in a quiet neighborhood, close to restaurants and other beaches.The staff was kind and helpful, ongoing contact by sms or telephone, receptive to our needs. Some items may be upgraded, but overall everything worked well.

There is a crazy person staying above me. I keep leaving to get away from them and I’ve attempted to say something to them as they were hanging clothes on the railing all day long. They ignored me. It is crazy and I have had no sleep.

I was charged $30 to park on site in a reserved parking spot. However, my vehicle didn’t fit in the spot. I additionally had to pay for public parking after driving around the block 2x. Along with that the door didn’t completely lock and I was woken up by construction the next morning. I politely texted the front desk clerk and asked for at least a refund on parking and haven’t heard back from anyone since Monday.

Great location!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Masthead. #39 is a great two floor cottage with a beautiful water view. And we saved money with the full kitchen...breakfast every morning and cooked dinner twice. And an easy walk to Victor's bistro, and Ptown's shopping area.
