We have been going for 7 years there. Always went to block yearly, and during Covid stayed at the Block Island Beach House due to no other having availability. Have been staying there since …. Best beach , rooms are small but clean and now added beach menu!! Great time!! We will be back next year!!

So many pros and so many cons!! I’ll start with all of our favorite things. The location is perfect! We stayed in the Gables with our kids and were in a two room suite. Perfect size for a family of four. The property had a pool right behind it which we all loved. The property was very flexible with holding our luggage for us when we arrived early and when we checked out so we didn’t have to walk around town with it. The hotel boutique was cute too! Now for the cons…..while the property had a great aesthetic there was lots of basic upkeep that was neglected. Rugs in the room had holes, toilet paper holder was off the wall, and electric outlet wasn’t screwed in. The water dispensers in hallway weren’t filled. The pool area didn’t have towels on our first day, however the man working the towel shack was very kind and brought us bathroom towels. The following day, things at the pool were stranger. They had menus out and when we asked a different employee if we could order drinks or food he was clearly annoyed. Said they didn’t bring drinks to the pool it was too far for him to go. I asked about the food and why they had menus out. He said he guessed he could go get food if we ordered it. All in all we would stay again. There’s just some kinks that needed to be ironed out!

The beach was covered in smelly seaweed that could have easi;ly been raked. The beach attendant was pretty much MIA on a beautiful weekend day. Lots of workers or young people dressed as workers lingering around but no one to help out on beach or clean beach. Beach chairs and cushions are worn and shabby looking.

Block Island beach house was a great place to stay! Clean and up to date. We stayed at the Gables. Great location by bars, restaurants, shopping and beach. Rooms were small but had everything we needed. Beds were very comfortable. We were on the 3rd level, no elevator, just be ready to climb up with your bags! Beach at the main hotel is beautiful and the chair set up is comfortable, was not crowded.
Only complaint is that the door to the Gables had a broken lock. When asked to fix it, they said they were working on it.

Cute, boutique hotel in a great location. 10 min walk from the ferry to arrive/depart on the island, and a solid restaurant for breakfast, lunch, and dinner with great views. As a hotel guest, you get free coffee each morning (that actually tastes good) which is a nice perk. As you can tell from the pictures, the rooms are very very small and no frills. Worth staying here!

This place is really not worth the money. It’s just okay, though perhaps the experience probably depends on which room you opt for (my room in the Gables was SO tiny), but even the common areas weren’t all that great. The pool is not well-maintained (dirty, cloudy water full of bugs and leaves), pool towels were not resupplied often enough, the “restaurant” is kind of a disaster with poor service and not-great food. The “boutique” part is a stretch, lipstick on a pig to be honest. No information was provided at check-in, no help offered with luggage.

The location was great and being right on the beach was lovely. The staff were all young but very helpful, especially Sonia at the front desk. However, the place does not look like the pictures. The rooms are ridiculously small for the price. You could barely walk around the bed (which had a lumpy mattress). The bathroom was spacious but the sink was tiny, making it difficult to not get water all over the floor. Although the room was clean, it was overall damp (including the rug that constantly felt wet). We also had to climb two flights of steep stairs (no elevator!) to our room. The beach area is small and there was a limited number of lounge chairs available. There was a stack of extras and I was told they were all broken. I know most of the hotels on Block Island are expensive but this didn't seem worth the price.

The main point is for the cost we were expecting a luxury boutique hotel - the hotel is RUNDOWN, the walls of our room looked like we were living in a half finished renovation, the bedding was sub-par polyester duvet and pillow stuffing, the paint everywhere was peeling from ceilings inside and out on the deck, on the windowpanes, and edges of doors were all scuffed, the plastic plant at the top of the stairs had a jute covering falling off it the 3 days were there. Our bathroom was modern but the funky sin is near impossible to brush your teeth at as either you hit your head on the shelf above the sink to get close enough or you end up spitting your toothpaste on the floor. The whole place needs a major renovation and at over $1000 CAD /night - not even including breakfast - it was a complete let down and rip-off.
It was supposed to be a special birthday 2 nights as a couple and we did not even want to eat dinner at the hotel because of the standards we could see. When I checked out I asked if they were starting a renovation because I felt like we were staying in one, the desk clerk agreed with me! A huge disappointment.

After making a reservation 3 weeks in advance, I attempted to call the hotel’s front desk to get more information regarding amenities. The phone would ring and ring with no one answering. The only way I was able to communicate was via email. Once I got to the hotel, I did a quick test at the front desk by calling the main number. The phone’s ringer was turned off and the woman working at the front desk was looking at her cell phone. She only became aware of the phone not ringing when I informed her I was trying to call. Also, there was a $50 daily dining credit listed on the hotel’s website for guest staying at the hotel who made reservations. The manager and workers were totally unaware of it. When I brought it to the manager’s attention he appeared to blow it off like it was a mistake by the hotel marketing team. He then brushed me off like it was not big deal. This is my 3rd time staying at one of Lark’s hotel. The Block Island Beach House definitely missed the mark on this one and tarnished the brand .

One thing about Block Island hotels is that they are very old. Taking that into consideration you must understand that the walls are very thin to the point it sounds like other people are in the same room!!! You can hear full on conversations and other stuff!! For over 24 hours the person in the room against our head board left their phone on and left. It vibrated against our wall all night long!!! The next morning it was still going off every 45 minutes or so. By noon it started vibrating every few minutes!!! It was a rainy day so we were in our room during this time. Finally we called the front desk to tell them what was happening. We had no idea what the situation was but it stopped vibrating within 15 minutes. Maybe the battery died or the staff had to enter the room and turn it off? We didn’t ask. Beautiful views and friendly staff made it a great experience. Sunsets are beautiful!!! People watching from the city side patio when the ferries came in was a blast!!! The pool is not on the premises. You have to make a 2 minute walk down the street. I would stay there again. Never in their peak season though. Prices quadruple on weekends!!!

We were there the week following Memorial Day and the pool was not open/under renovations, the restaurant/bar was not open at all in the afternoon or evening when we arrived but was open for breakfast next day. The staff person was very nice and accommodating, but he was the only one there and seemed to be racing around from one location to another. Nice layout, and although we were expecting to be I. The Main hotel ( as we thought we booked) the sister hotel down the road where the pool was located was nice.

When we checked in, we were told our room was down the street. I must’ve missed that when I made the reservation. I did not realize there were multiple buildings. It was fine though, everything was good in my opinion, not outstanding. Beachy. A little dated. Clean room, modern bathroom. That’s what’s important. Convenient walk to beaches, dining, shopping. We went early in the season so it was a little chilly. The pool I don’t think was open yet. I would stay again.

The location of this hotel could not have been better, right on the beach and close to the ferry, stores and restaurants. There were many positives about the hotel including a charming lobby, porches overlooking the main street in front and beach in back with comfortable seating. However, I'm not sure if the peeling paint on the walls was a decorative choice (the distressed look) or general disrepair. Our room had a balcony overlooking the beach which was its finest feature but the room needed painting and it felt quite cramped. Other than a shower curtain there was no separation between the shower and the rest of the bathroom so the entire bathroom got flooded when the shower was running. There was a door leading out to the balcony that did not have a screen. We left the door open to the elements so we could hear the sound of the waves and get some ventilation.

The location could not have been better — easy walk from the ferry, beautiful ocean views, and close to everything on the island. We loved spending time by the beach, biking around the island, and ending the nights with drinks by the water.

The hotel itself had such a fun coastal vibe while still feeling comfortable and welcoming. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our stay, and everything was clean, stylish, and well maintained.

No employee at hotel from early evening til morning. All doors to very public street unlocked all night. Felt unsafe, my husband agreed. Door kept cracked open to creepy basement with light on. Very little lighting otherwise. Air stuffy, told at first not to open windows. Later sent email that ‘split’ air system does not heat, use base board, turn knob, did so, smelt like burning dust, so shut right off. Slept in clothes per the above. Had to request refund on amenities charge added that night, did receive refund readily upon request as there was no food, no bar, no pool, bad tv, not many lights, no safety.

If you are looking for a hotel that is on a beach, this is good place to stay. If you are looking for a quiet stay, this is not your place. This is a old wooden structure with no carpet in rooms or hallway. Noise transmission was much higher than most hotels. Our room was much smaller than expected and although we had an ocean view, the windows had labels that said “ enjoy the view but keep windows closed “. The windows had counterweights removed so they wouldn’t stay open. Disappointing to not be able to open ocean view windows and hear waves lapping on the shore.

Initially, we booked the Oceanview King Suit, and a week before we came we were offered an upgrade to the Gables Poolside King Suit, which we took; we were celebrating our honeymoon. When we arrived, we were given the ADA Suite that is positioned on the street, with a window that overlooks the handicap elevator. Apparently there was a water main break up at the Gables location, but still, this was poorly taken care of.

The employees have no idea what’s going on, and they also don’t really appear t care. We asked to speak with a manager right away because it’s unacceptable, especially with no notice or explanation as to why they resorted to give us an ADA room… the bed was at our ankles & we had to squat to look into the mirror and brush our teeth…. We didn’t get in touch with a manager until the next afternoon when she decided to come in (we were told by the staff she would be in at 9am, and we had to stand around waiting for her to be told she wouldn’t be in until later).

The manager, McKenna, gave us another room, and this one had broken AC unit. We downgraded our room & no discount?We also had a family enter our room one evening because they were given the keys..

The employees treat you as if you’re a bother, if you don’t wanna work and engage with good customer service, go home.

I have never written a review before, but this is warranted considering the experience we had. If we ever come back to BI, we definitely will not be staying with Block Island Beach House.

Not worth the cost

We were underwhelmed from the start. We checked in to 3 agents and since we didn’t pre check in they made us do it on our phone instead of checking us in. They seemed very annoyed we hadn’t done pre check in. They also did not explain any of the amenities (that we were being charged $30 per day for)Then we went to our room that we had spent a great deal on. It was in the basement of one of the off site properties, the gothic house. Room was musty smelling and the floors were so uneven - almost seemed like there were tree roots underneath. The AC unit made noises all night that kept us awake. The price is not worth the stay at this hotel. Book something else and just go to the restaurant for lunch and drinks.

Charming, but…

Third visit because the location is key, in town with on-site restaurant and beach access. It’s an old building- refurbished with charm, but note that it kept its slanted floors and thin walls. This visit, we noticed repairs were needed throughout- our room in particular had several holes in walls from past shelving. Service was challenging this time- front desk was efficient and friendly, but housekeeping skipped our room and several of us waited fifteen minutes for lobby coffee while the server chatted on the phone nearby. For these prices, one might expect more attention to detail and service, but hopefully these things will be addressed.

The hotel’s location can’t be beat. It’s a short walk from the ferry and has plenty of restaurants that are within walking distance. The condition of the hotel however is a little run down. We noticed visible mold throughout the property (on the walls behind the surfboards hanging), there was visible water damage (bulging wallpaper/plaster), and the rooms were very small. Keep in mind that although there is an elevator, this is not a true handicap friendly hotel. Overall, the view from our room was wonderful and the staff were very friendly and helpful.

Overall our stay was good. The staff was great. Nice, friendly very accommodating. At first glance the property is really nice. very well appointed. Until you look around and you see it need a serious cleaning and paint refresh. Some porch railings look like they weren't even cleaned before the season began. The pool area is lovely but needs a major cleaning also.

Hotel was in an amazing location, so easily walkable from the ferry and all the main shops/restaurants and bars. They stored our luggage for us until our room was ready (early!) and then when we went to check in our bags had already been brought to our room which was great. We stayed in The Gothic which was a a bit up the street from the main building however I was happier with that because it was definitely more quiet and we were on a ground floor (I'm 6 months pregnant so didn't really want to be walking up and down stairs all day). The only slight negatives was that the ice machine was right outside our room which was loud if people were using it early in the morning, and they do allow non-guests to purchase the beach loungers so there are times when none are available. We loved our stay and would definitely come back!

It was just the right place and location for my family for a quick getaway.
The Gothic was very cute and well suited for our short stay and our grown girls loved the bunks.
Would have been nice to have some hospitality water bottles, snacks and tax in the room, but still a great 2 bedroom house

We tried to touch base with a manager on multiple occasions prior to leaving the island but were told none were available.

Good: The beach property was beautiful - and why we booked at the resort.

Bad: Unfortunately, our tv sound did not work despite multiple attempts - which we ultimately overlooked. Thereafter, we went to the pool and people who were not resort guests were there - smoking, drinking full liquor bottles, taking full blown showers in the outdoor showers (shampoo, conditioner, using a razor), and to top it all off - a man (again, not a guest) undressed outside in front of everyone - including children. Again, we tried to overlook this and went to the beach instead. In the middle of our sleep a loud banging on our door startled us awake - twice. It sounded like it was going to break the door open. Eventually, found to be a local by staff who broke into the hotel (and up to the second floor to where our room was. Eventually the culprit was confronted by security (?police) outside of the hotel. I have emailed our concerns multiple times and no one will reply to this day.

I stayed at the Gables Poolside King Suite. It was nice to be down the street, next to the pool, in the quieter area. The hotel is conveniently located within walking distance from the ferry and shops, dining, etc.

Staff were nice. The room was very, very small. Had to walk sideways to get betweem tv and bed. It was uncomfortable. But then again, what do you expect fot $777 per night.

This hotel was great for the weekend. The room was clean, comfortable and aesthetically pleasing. The location of the hotel itself is in the middle of everything. The main hotel has the restaurant and beach access while most of their rooms are located in what seems to be houses converted into a hotel down the street. The restaurant at the hotel is not worth your time, the food is lackluster and over priced. However the national hotel across the street has a pretty good menu and service. The beach was nice and the attendant was great, just make sure to go early to get your chairs/umbrella they go quick. If you want nice sand clear water and privacy go to mansion beach it’s about 10 mins away from the hotel. Block island was a great weekend getaway with a Caribbean vacation feel without taking a flight.
