Warm hospitality in an tranquil setting. Monroe Bay Inn, under new ownership, opened for business…read morein the fall of 2011. I stayed there in February 2012 and enjoyed it very much. The home has glossy wood floors and ample seating areas that would be great for a large family or group. Local art hangs throughout the Inn. Guest rooms are upstairs and spacious, each with a private bathroom. We stayed in Room #1. The feather bed was luxurious, and two windows offered nice views onto the large front yard and quiet street below. The innkeeper was polite and thoughtful. The bathroom was fairly new construction, but the tiny shower made for tricky maneuvering and the bathroom light-fan combo was annoyingly loud. Breakfast was tasty, with a variety of fresh coffees and orange juice, and friendly, personalized service. This home was owned by the family of Alexander Graham Bell, inventor of the telephone, and at one time provided summer stays to hearing-impaired children from the region. Upstairs, the rooms are lined along both sides of a longish hallway and hearken to that bygone era. At this time, the overnight fee was due up-front, and in cash. FYI.

My husband and I recently spent an overnight at The Monroe Bay Inn in Room #1. We had a pleasant…read morevisit - the Monroe Inn was spotless and comfy! I like the fact that the inn keeper had local art hanging throughout the inn to punctuate the spacious layout. The location was near the local sites in Colonial Beach and a short (5-10 minute) drive to the bay or beach area. The inn keeper suggested that the inn could accommodate family groups and was flexible regarding length of stay. If you are doing a winery visit or beach stay in the area, please consider the Monroe Inn for your stay.

Total relaxation with every detail taken care of. First the husband/wife innkeepers Shawn and Steve were amazing and cared so much that we had a wonderful stay. We had my elderly parents w us in their ground floor room called the "Islandscape"and we had one of the main house "Narada" room. The view and location were fantastic. The breakfasts were special 3 course including fresh fruit and something sweet and savory. The baked goods every day by Shawn showed her love and talent for baking--even a goodie bag at our departure. If I lived closer, I would come more often! There's a game room, binoculars, hot chocolate w mini marshmallows, beautiful sitting areas to enjoy the view throughout the property including the front porch where we hung out after dinner. The restaurant right across the street about a stone's throw away at Charles Street served tapas and seafood w live jazz in a Sat night. We also tried Bugeye Grill another night and they were fantastic too. Never really had to get back in the car as you can walk just a few blocks up to the main part of town w a few shops and restaurants. Right next door is an outdoor salty tiki bar that looks fun when it warms up more. I could go on and on. Oh, and Calvert Cliffs park is only 10 min away by car where you can find shark teeth and fossils, which we did! Soo much better than a hotel or airbnb!

The proprietors, Jennifer and Greg, were wonderful to work with and accommodated our special requests to help make our wedding everything we had dreamed of. The appetizers, dinner, and specialty cocktails were all beautifully prepared and received rave reviews from our guests. Those who stayed in the inn and apartments commented on the charming accommodations and especially appreciated the comfortable beds. We fell in love with the home's stunning architecture and antique furnishings, which blend seamlessly with modern comforts and amenities. Our international guests were particularly enchanted by the house, saying that this more than 100-year-old Virginia home was exactly what they had imagined when picturing the historic beauty and charm of Virginia. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect setting for our wedding celebration and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a unique, elegant, and memorable venue.
