Our stay at Sea Breeze was wonderful. The staff was so friendly. The picnic basket breakfast was such a nice touch to our stay. The bed was a really short in length for my 6 foot husband. It made sleeping a little uncomfortable, but there were so many positive things it wasn't something that bothered us enough not to return in the future.

Thanks Corrine for your great review! Next time you can try booking one of our Queen Suites instead of a Double, in order to get a larger bed for your tall husband :) We look forward to seeing you again soon.

Staff was fantastic. Location was fantastic. View was fantastic. Recommendations for places to explore was fantastic. This was our first time on Block Island and this team made it awesome. Would stay there again in a heartbeat. TRUTH IN ADVERTISING: They self describe as an awesome place to get away from the world no great big TV. No giant air conditioning that chills room to 0°. They are not lying, this is a windows open sea breeze coming in, porch sitting, shoes off kind of place. Everyone clearly takes pride in their job around the property whether it be the owner, manger, reception, home-keeping or grounds. Looking forward to our next stay at the Sea Breeze.

We can't wait to return to the Sea Breeze Inn. It was a prefect spot for our mid week getaway. The view, the convenient location, delicious breakfast, and friendly staff (Corey) are just a few reasons I'd recommend this spot to anyone visiting BI. We had booked a hotel for our last night on the island, but wished our whole stay was at the Sea Breeze. It was a lovely experience, thank you!!

Beyond expectations
My stay was truly amazing. Corey welcomed me right from the start and asked what I would be doing to ensure I knew where to go and how to find what I needed. I was able to text him when I needed something and the service was above expectations. The room was clean and there was clear directions for anything I wanted to do. I was able to rent a bike right from my room as well, which was super convenient. I also liked that I was close to some attractions such as the animal farm and a beautiful hotel where I met a friend for drinks. It was literally right next door,.

We had a wonderful stay at Sea Breeze Inn! The location is ideal, close to town but with a cozy feel and lovely ocean views. I can't say enough about the hospitality of Corey, he really made us feel welcome and made sure we enjoyed our time at the Inn. The breakfasts are really amazing, I would definitely stay here again.

A peaceful oasis
We had a thoroughly enjoyable stay at the Sea Breeze. In early May not all BI establishments are open, but that was fine with us. We come for the natural beauty of the island and honestly don't enjoy the summer mayhem. The Sea Breeze takes us back to the days on the island when there were far fewer cars, mopeds and tourists--especially ones that don't respect the island. The room was very clean and comfortable, the grounds are beautiful and the ocean views are breathtaking. Breakfast delivered to the doorstep was divine. The manager, Corey, was a lovely guy who knows the island very well. Being able to rent a bike right there on the property was great. If you're a super early riser and must have that cup of coffee right away, know that breakfast doesn't arrive until about 8:30 AM. Just take a quick walk into town and get coffee at one of the numerous places that open early. If you are a fussy, high maintenance type who expects large-hotel type amenities, this is not the place for you. It's perfect for folks who appreciate the simple pleasures of a classic cottage in a naturally beautiful setting. Turn off the devices and listen to the birds!

Tucked away from the hustle and bustle of town, the grounds of this property are absolutely beautiful! Grab a seat in an Adirondack chair overlooking the pond and the ocean or sit on the deck outside of your room and have the delicious (included breakfast) delivered to your door each morning in a picnic basket. Because there is no A/C, a ceiling fan or pedestal fan in the room would have been nice. This is the only reason I give the Sea Breeze Inn 4 stars instead of five. Regardless, we would LOVE to visit this property again. It's beauty and charm, not to mention the owner (Andrea), make you feel right at home on Block Island.

They called us and said our room was ready. We got there an hour later and it wasn't ready. We came home one afternoon and our door was wide open. With all of our belongings in it. And our bedding was damp. The breakfast was exceptional. Nice products for the shower included. All of the wrongs were made right.
