Great stay with amazing staff! Had a wardrobe emergency moments before our taxi was coming to take us to a wedding and one of the staff went out of her way to locate some safety pins that saved the day! Everyone we interacted with was so nice and helpful. The location of the hotel also can’t be beat.

It is a nice hotel but the rooms are small. We had a convenience bar outside the room for water, ice, coffee, etc. the bar was practical but noisy as others used it. The staff was cordial but not overly personable. The outside bar was gorgeous! The beach set up is perfect- towels and everything else you need are right there on the beach. They have a foot shower too! The cushions on the outdoor furniture needed a refresh and were very tired and weathered. Lastly, we arrived after Labor Day and through no fault of the hotel, they were losing staff daily and short staffed in general.

So many adjectives could describe the Block Island Beach House - love love loved it! The location to the beach, the beautifully remodeled rooms and bathrooms, the porch and more. Loved our stay on the island, and hope to come back in the future. Two days definitely was not enough island time!

Something just not quite right about BIBH, we get that it’s an old, historic property (and love that) but it needs some attention in many areas. The outside of the hotel is in bad repair, our room window was broken and wouldn’t close properly. Outdoor seating cushions were dirty and some ripped/worn. Some staff were fine, friendly and helpful but a few seemed to have no regard for customers. Free coffee was a nice touch and the breakfast bowl I had was excellent. Did not eat or drink at hotel otherwise. All the stuff for sale seems tacky…For the almost $500 a night cost of a tiny room without an ocean view in the off-season, we will chose another place in the future.

Gorgeous Inn overlooking the ocean. We went after labor day & it was perfect, no crowds. The food at the hotel was also delicious. I would recommend and stay here again.

No one working there seemed like they had any experience in hospitality -- they were kind of friendly, but it didn't feel like there was any customer service, also had one of the creekiest most uncomfortable beds I've ever slept in (was actually tilted so far down that I had to switch my head to the other side to get any sleep), and they don't do any maintenance on the beach, so you're surrounded by really smelly washed up seaweed among other things. The food on the island isn't good in general, but the food at this place was decent at least.

Hotel had a private beach. Lounge chairs, umbrellas, and towels were supplied. Hotel also had a pool. It was possible to order food and drink delivered to your lounge chair! Bed was very comfortable. Room was tiny. Staff was friendly and helpful. Hotel allowed use of all the amenities while waiting for room to be ready. Restaurant and bar on premise. Complimentary coffee and water available. We thorough enjoyed our stay.
