    Steak Frites!!!
    Tim S.

    I love this restaurant/pub. Sit at the bar, THATS where all the action is. Always friendly people to talk with. The lighting here is perfection, and if you have read any of my 100 of reviews you know that it's very important to me. Dining at a restaurant should be special and relaxing. So many places these days are using the lights meant for the cleaning crew as their regular lighting. Horrible. I started with an amazing Lemon Drop martini made with limoncello and not sour mix. Delicious. For my main I got the Steak Frites. Medium rare. 10/10. The flavor was out of this world. Served sliced. Fries were hot and crispy. Ruth's Chris could learn a thing or two here. $31. Linda was an exceptional bartender and server. As Always. A+ experience

    We stay in Falmouth every December for a family party. We normally stay at the Sea Crest, but wanted to try something different this year. I booked a double Queen suite a few weeks ahead and then we added an additional king room last minute. The good: aesthetically pleasing decor, luxurious & upscale toiletries and linens, comfortable beds, early check-in (we were able to get in to our room at 1 PM, which was very much appreciated) , friendly staff, free continental breakfast, wine glasses and corkscrews in the room. The bad: the renovated rooms look so pretty in the photos but in person, they still have kind of a cheap motel feel. They left the original tubs instead of putting in a soaking or jetted tub, and added some narrow little standing showers and awkwardly placed sinks. The views from the big windows in the guest rooms are of the parking lot, the doors to the guest rooms lack adequate security (one cheap lock on the doorknob - no deadbolt or latch up top) and most disappointingly, the noise. We brought a white noise machine for our 3 year old and were still woken up in the middle of the night by loud guests partying on the floor above us. We called the after hours front desk number for help and things quieted down a little bit after that, but not enough to allow for a good night's sleep. The renovations clearly did not include adding any sound insulation. Takeaway - if you're going to stay at a noisy motel in Falmouth in December, you're better off staying at the Seacrest. It's cheaper and you get to wake up looking at the ocean, instead of at a parking lot.

    One word: WOW! My boyfriend and I decided to make a quick, last-minute trip to the Cape and decided we would stay here. After visiting Falmouth once before this trip, we definitely fell in love and found our vacation spot, but were not the most pleased with our accommodations. After our stay at The Coonamessett Inn, I can definitely say that we have found our place to stay in Falmouth. The staff was amazing, there's a restaurant/bar on-site, and the location cannot be beat. First, the rooms are gorgeous and HUGE. We were in a King Suite, which had a living room with TV, table/chairs, couch, closet, mini-fridge, and some drinkware. The bedroom had a huge, four-poster king bed, dresser, and two nightstands. While it looked small online, the walk-in shower was surprisingly huge (as was the whole room, honestly). We even had a patio out front with some furniture, but it was a little too cold to enjoy it. Truthfully a perfect room! The rooms could be improved in two ways, though. First, the sound between the rooms was insane. We could hear verbatim the conversations had by the couple next to us, and I am sure they could with us, too. Also, the temperature control in the rooms was less than ideal. It was either incredibly hot with the heater, or chilling with the windows open. Maybe the desk could have some fans on-site for the guests if they need them? Now for the grounds! They were gorgeous, as is the rest of the cape. The pond is just the perfect setting for this quaint resort! Next time, we hope to try the Lark Suite or a Village King Suite. We did visit Eli's and only had an appetizer and drinks, but definitely will go back on our next trip for a full meal. If you are looking for a place to stay in Falmouth, look no further. You will not be disappointed by The Coonamessett and everything it has to offer!

    We booked to stay at the Coonamessett and were pleasantly surprised with the value it offered for the money we paid. We had struggled to find anything decent on Cape Cod below $500 a night before coming across the Coonamessett. We managed to get a full two bedroom suite for about $450 a night which we thought was great value. The inn itself has a very clean, polished and somewhat upscale vibe which we appreciated; it actually looked better than a lot of the inns that we were considering that were at least 50% more expensive. Our suite was beautifully furnished and the one issue we had was rectified remarkably quickly. The staff were generally very friendly, and in particular, the lady managing the front desk was very professional, personable and eager to help with any queries we had. The breakfast, which is complimentary, is an ample spread of pastries, bread, cereal, yogurt and other continental offerings. It's not a full buffet by any means but was a nice touch and perfectly sufficient for a quick breakfast before starting the day. If we return to Cape Cod, the Coonamessett will definitely be on our list.

    Charming place to stay for a girls weekend trip! Trendy, historic inn. Room was clean, SO comfy, and filled with perfect, chilly AC. Walkable to Main Street with all the shops and restaurants. Plenty of parking, restaurant on site, bikes, and friendly staff. Great place for friends and families!!

    My fiance and I looked at The Coonamessett as a venue for our wedding at the end of the year. We fell in love and wound up choosing it. This past weekend we stayed there to get to know Falmouth better. The staff is extremely friendly and made us feel so welcome. The room we stayed in had a living room and bedroom, each of which had a tv. The furniture is beyond comfortable. Additionally, the bed was so comfortable. Lastly, the products that they use in the bathroom were amazing. They smelled amazing and left our hair amazing. Overall I would highly recommend this inn. Everything is so close by. The quaint small town feel in the center of town and all the great shopping!

This review is not based on an actual stay, but rather on the booking and customer service experience leading up to my planned visit. I had never been to the Northeast and was excited to plan a trip to Boston and Cape Cod for the Fourth of July holiday. I began planning in April and was particularly looking forward to staying at the newly renovated Shore Haven Inn (formerly Beach Breeze Inn in Falmouth). Based on the photos and marketing materials, the property appeared beautiful, and I booked a four-night stay several months in advance. Two days before my trip, I received a notification from Hotels.com that my reservation had been canceled. This came as a surprise, especially after I had already noticed that the full payment had been charged to my account. With the Fourth of July being one of the busiest travel weeks in Cape Cod, this left me scrambling to find alternative accommodations at the last minute. I contacted the inn directly to understand what had happened. I was informed that the reservation had been canceled because the renovation was not yet complete. While I understand that construction timelines can change, I was disappointed by both the timing of the cancellation and the lack of communication leading up to it. Unfortunately, my experience with customer service was equally disappointing. I was directed back and forth between the inn and Hotels.com regarding my refund. When I contacted the inn again, there appeared to be confusion regarding my payment, and I had to make multiple efforts before the charge was located and refunded. What prompted me to write this review is what I observed after arriving in Cape Cod. Despite the cancellation, I proceeded with my trip and secured one of the few accommodations still available for the holiday weekend. While in Falmouth, I drove by Shore Haven Inn and was surprised by the extent of the unfinished renovation. The property appeared to be far from completion, with visible construction work still underway and building materials on site. Given the condition of the property, I am concerned that reservations were still being accepted and payments processed when it was evident that the inn would not be ready to accommodate guests. Renovation delays happen, but guests deserve timely communication, transparency, and proactive customer service--especially when travel plans are being made months in advance. For anyone considering a future stay, I would recommend confirming directly with the property that renovations have been completed before booking. The inn may ultimately become a wonderful place to stay, but based on my experience, I would be cautious until operations are fully up and running.

Any worries or concerns that I may have had disappeared the moment we pulled into the drive. From the impeccable landscaping to the timely and friendly greeting from the Inn owner, Pattie started the weekend off perfectly. She was both warm and inviting. She took the time to show us her beautiful property and all of its personalized, beautiful features and amenities. The rooms were spacious, impeccable and adorned with all of the luxuries you may want for a comfortable stay. The housekeeping crew left the room spotless and tidy each day as well. Watching Pattie work and care for her guests make the stay just that more special. She truly cares about her guests comfort. My friends and I were able to enjoy her delicious, homemade breakfasts (we could have done better of keeping her informed of any culinary preferences but she was able to accommodate a few reasonable requests). She has truly thought of every detail---from coffee/tea/filtered water access all day to homemade cookies ! Sitting on the veranda together whether in the evening or morning after breakfast, we were able to settle in surrounded by trees and enjoy one another's company. We loved it so much we are thinking of making this an annual visit. Thank you, Pattie for creating the perfect environment for us to laugh, talk and create memories until our next reunion!

The rooms & common areas were tastefully decorated. My only gripe is that there is no fridge in the room. We were allowed to use the main fridge in the kitchen, but it's shared with everyone and can't be used while breakfast is going on, so I had to plan ahead if I wanted to take a drink out for breakfast and, obviously, it wouldn't be cold as a result. Mini fridges in the rooms would be great! They also had great toiletries (e.g., shampoo that doesn't make your hair feel like hay.) Service: This inn is run by husband and wife, Pattie and Randy. Pattie seems very well-intentioned and was helpful. She greeted us with a smile, answered all of our questions, had ferry tickets ready for the Vineyard, and was happy to provide recommendations for things to do, how to get to places, and so on. She was the quintessential innkeeper. Breakfast is served every morning and was delicious. Pattie was meticulous about dietary restrictions, which the three of us who had some very much appreciated. As a pescatarian who has been served clam chowder with bacon (after a lengthy convo about not eating meat) and had numerous encounters with people who don't understand that chicken is not a vegetable, I am grateful for people in the service industry who take dietary restrictions seriously. I didn't feel like I needed to ask her about every breakfast item to make sure I wasn't inadvertently eating meat because it was clear that she was already on top of that. They have about 6-8 tables out on the veranda and the innkeepers made sure that everyone would be seated promptly and with their entire party. Sounds great, why the hell did you only give it three stars? Randy. When I first met Randy, I thought he was funny in a deeply sarcastic way. Problem is, it quickly became clear that the sarcasm was mostly just him being rude and judgmental. Some examples follow but they're certainly not the only uncomfortable interactions we had with him: (1) when asked what kind of juice we wanted, both my husband and I said orange. He told us we were unoriginal. (2) when we disclosed we were going to Provincetown for whale-watching and walking around town, he told us he doesn't appreciate his guests doing that. His GUESTS, who paid a little under $1700 per couple for three nights at this place, were all vaccinated (and provided proof of such) and regularly wear masks, especially in indoor spaces had to worry about whether or not he approves of our vacation plans. In fact, when we first checked in, I wore a mask the entire time. I only took it off after noticing that Pattie wasn't wearing one so I figured they were comfortable with us not being masked because they had proof of our vaccine status. All the other guests also did not wear masks. (Writing reviews during COVID is bizarre.) I get his hesitancy (somewhat): we visited in late August of 2021; there was a COVID outbreak in Provincetown in early July of 2021. It was contained and Provincetown has been strictly enforcing masking since then. Plus, this outbreak was related to the Delta variant, which isn't unique to Provincetown. They never told us before we checked in that they were so concerned about Provincetown. We had already purchased tickets to whale-watching and weren't about to throw away $65/pp because the host of the place we paid to sleep at night didn't like it. If COVID is that serious of a concern they should either (1) warn their guests explicitly about these restrictions before booking or (2) not run their business during COVID. By the way, Provincetown was awesome. Loved whale-watching & Commercial St., while touristy, isn't depressingly so. I highly recommend a trip there! If you go, The Lobster Pot should absolutely be your lunch stop! (3) on the day we checked out, I saw Randy and asked if Pattie was around so that I could provide her with my credit card. Randy went to the entrance where there was apparently a bell to summon Pattie. I was next to the bell. He could've easily walked to the OPPOSITE side of the counter to ring the bell. Instead, he told me he likes to keep about 8' of distance and had me move to the other side of the room so he could ring said bell. I get social distancing and am happy to abide, but don't make your guests feel like lepers. He could've asked ME to ring the bell, or told me WHY he needed me to move. Instead, he told me he needed the 8' as he moved towards me so I could get out of his way. It was awkward and uncomfortable. One of my friends started wearing her mask--despite that neither Pattie nor Randy wear masks in their inn--because she also felt like he was being really judgmental and treated us like walking COVID hotbeds. (4) it seems they don't pay employees well? Randy made some comments about how they can't keep their help around b/c the gov't providing unemployment
