I didn’t like our “suite”. Old, dated furnishings with a bedspread that’s probably not cleaned in months. Roll away bed not placed until requested. Then we had to unfold it and set up. The wood floors creak. Very loud with people walking. I would not recommend this place or return to it.

Very cozy B&B close to beach. Dated but still inviting. Lots of books and games to play and share with family and friends. Suggestions maybe a kerig coffee machine available for coffee for those early birds. Less heavy bed comforters less cluttter in rooms and hallways. It is such a beautiful Inn less would be more. I was sold on a working fireplace but that was not available. Staff was pleasant and helpful. We will visit again sometime.

We loved our stay at Haven By The Sea B&B!! It felt like staying at your grandma’s house, the decor was so cute, it was so quiet and cozy, and there were many breakfast options! The only thing I have to say is that the walls were thin and the pillows uncomfortable, but apart form that, we had the best time. The ladies working there were so helpful with planning our itinerary and filling our needs. Would definitely stay there again:)

This is a unique property in a great location, a block walk to steps down to the beach. The room was comfortable and clean, not large but sufficient for my needs. The common areas are a bit overstuffed with books, games, puzzles, too dark and overcrowded with chairs, ‘decor’, pictures and stuff, but thoughtful to provide abundant entertainment. It is not a quiet building, the old wooden floors creak loudly and echo with walking, door closings, talking. Not easily resolved. Just be prepared for a lot of noises whenever other guests are in the halls. The breakfast room and deck are beautiful but the food was definitely lackluster, about standard Motel 6 fare. The cream for coffee was sour. The muffins still frozen inside, but when thawed, were crumbly and stale. No breakfast meats or warm items. An inn like this should put more effort into providing more than merely an ‘adequate’ breakfast. At least one fresh warm baked product and some sausage or bacon would make a big difference. Rooms do not get tended every day. Because of that, the envelope and prominent sign for gratuities in the room seemed a bit, well, especially since they charge $25 cleaning fee on top of typical hotel rates and don’t staff a front desk. One note - there is no beach at high tide. Seriously, the waves break against the seawall, the bottom of the steps is under water. It is nice at low tide, so plan ahead especially if you want to be on the beach at high tide. Check tide tables online.

The place is gorgeous!! Very elegant! While check in was a bit of a hassle, the room code was not working to get into the room, no big deal! We called a got it squared away but the customer service was not great. The guy acted like it was an inconvenience to HIM that he had to change it for us. Then upon opening the door finally, it was not as advertised. We booked room 10, a king bed. When we walked in it was a full size bed. Double doors that were unlocked opened into another room with a dining area, couches and a king bedroom. We thought then the entire thing must be ours because there the king bed was. But upon asking the man on the phone, he said that those doors were supposed to be locked as that is a separate room for other guests. He said “sorry you can use the king bed but don’t touch anything else in the room or we will have to charge you triple for cleaning fees. Which was kinda rude and odd to me considering it was not our mistake, it was his. He was very irritated and rude. We decided to just stay in the full size bedroom. Even though we paid for a king, the room was perfectly clean. Bathroom was clean and showers were HOT!! Other than the customer service, it was beautiful.

This property has a calm and relaxing feel to it. The staff was extremely helpful and very nice. At check- in we were even offered champagne. They have these nice little wagons that have beach chairs, towels, and a cooler to go to the beach. Breakfast was decent and the location is perfect. I will definitely stay at th Haven by the sea again.

Property is clean but in serious need of updating. We stayed in the #5 suite. Everything in our room was painted a very dismal brown. The decor may have looked good in 1960 but is very tacky now. No AC. Breakfast was very substandard.

The B&B is a charming inn that was converted from an old Catholic Church. I was there for business but it is a block from a wonderful beach for those wanting sun and fun time in and by the water. The staff was exceptional.

Great choice, lovely accomodations

A lovely b&b, minute walk to the beach. Very comfy bed, clean bath. Nice breakfast room w/elegant tablecloths, fresh muffins, cereal choices, bagels/toast. My go-to each morning was the cottage cheese and fresh berries. Nice selection of teas/coffee/cocoa. No fridge/micro in room, but community kitchenette was fine for our needs. Bar service, but we didn’t use it. Games and puzzles, books galore available.

We stayed for two nights and were so pleased. The inn is charming, the staff so friendly and accommodating. While it is not the most modern of rooms … the overall feel is friendly, caring, welcoming… there are great sitting areas throughout with comfy chairs, books, games, puzzles. We enjoyed the historic significance of staying in a former church. It adds to the unique charm of the place. I would highly recommend.
