Guest Reviews

Marie (10/5): -
Dana (10/5): Perfection does exist! - EVERYTHING!!! The properties are incredible with stunning views, pool and beach house - the rooms are spacious and gorgeous - with an enormous amount of storage, beautifully furnished (solid wood, wonderful art hugging the walls). The staff is amazing, always super helpful, with genuine smiles, truly remarkable people. The breakfast options in the morning are super generous, including: warm homemade muffins (changing daily in flavor), banana bread, and mini croissants (also varying in flavor daily), yogurt (several options available), fresh fruit cups (at least 5-6 fruit varieties included and cut up in bite size), bagels, English muffins, boiled eggs, condiments, cereal (few varieties), milk, juice (2 options), coffee, tea, and quiche. They even serve warm cookies and fresh lemonade in the afternoon. Both properties are extremely clean, plenty of beach towels available at all times. Winstead Inn is treat and feels like being in paradise! Not staying long enough…
Dana (10/5): Perfection!!! - Everything!!! Love this place, the people who run it, and truly feel fortunate every time I get a chance to stay! Exceptional on ALL levels!!!
Julie (2/5): Disappointing - Our stay at this resort was, unfortunately, far from relaxing. We encountered several issues that really impacted our experience. First and most unsettling—there were ants in our room. One even crawled across my daughter’s face at 3am, waking her up in a panic. On top of that, when we turned down the beds, we found a long hair in one of them—definitely not what you expect when arriving at a “resort.” The pool was another disappointment. It was noticeably dirty, and while we were hoping for some family time in the morning, there’s an “adults only” swim from 8–10am. The kicker? The pool was completely empty during that entire time, which felt like such a waste. Another heads-up for future guests: the resort has two separate locations. If you don’t book a beachfront room, you’re restricted from parking near the beach except during limited hours. This was inconvenient and felt misleading. Overall, this was a very disappointing stay for our family. I rarely leave negative reviews, but in this case, I would not return and wouldn’t recommend it to others—especially families with young kids.
Vedaant (8/5): Simple and cozy - Very cozy place with spacious and comfortable rooms! Everything was generally easy to navigate and figure out. The breakfast was a bit disappointing, we were certainly expecting something a bit more thoughtful than a simple cold breakfast.
Robert (9/5): - Historic Feel with modern amenities Minor inconvenience but we did have to go to their beach resort 1.5 miles away for the included breakfast, which was fine.
Jeanette (8/5): - The room smelled a bit musty.
cullinan (8/5): Lovely location in town and sister property access to beach great- lovely continental breakfast - Beautiful grounds Lovely staff Room very neat and clean and spacious
Dan (10/5): -
Verified traveler (10/5): - Windstead Inn is a beautiful property!! Management was great, let us check in early and our room was upgraded. Would definitely stay again.
Robert (10/5): Excellent - A really nice place to stay!
Alison (9/5): -
Tracy (7/5): Overall a very good experience - We stayed here a total of 3 nights. I’m reviewing the first night now as we moved rooms for next 2 nights. Location great for us. A charming property and good staff. Very clean. We stayed in Admiral room first night. Bed uncomfortable and room very cluttered with unnecessary furniture. Breakfast great. I would have liked to have coffee facilities in the room as breakfast isn’t served until 8 and I’m an early riser.
Tracy (8/5): Overall a lovely place to stay. - Very quaint. Comfy bed. Lovely breakfast. I would have like coffee facilities in the room as breakfast isn’t served until 8 and I’m an early riser
Denis (9/5): Quiétude et confort - Tranquille et très bien entretenu Absolument rien
Paul (8/5): Excellent place. Would love to return. - The facility is very nice, clean, charming, with lots of character. The personnel is well trained, courteous, and helpful. The sond floor rooms have sloped ceiling that caused some occasional head bumps.
Emilie (9/5): Merveilleux - Merveilleux endroit. Nous avons tout adoré!! Les heures d’ouverture pour profiter de la belle piscine sont trop court pour les familles avec enfants ( de 10 à 19h00)
Perro007 (8/5): We loved our stay at the Winstead Inn - The Inn is a beautiful place with a beautiful garden and pool area. The room we had was very spacious with comfortable beds and a large bathroom. Everything was very comfortable and clean. Breakfast was served in a very nice room and was ok. There were boiled eggs, but no other salty foods (no fried, scrambled eggs, bacon, cheese, whatsoever). The breakfast therefore from our perspective didn’t meet the choice we usually got at the cape (Eg Captains House Inn or Brewster by the Sea). However, it didn’t bother us that much and the staff were really friendly. On our last day the eggs run out and the staff immediately made sure there were fresh eggs. Overall we definitely recommend this place.
Sara (10/5): - They made sure I got in safe and comfortable. Number to call when I arrived late for check in was super nice. In case I needed help with anything. Morning staff was so nice too Pretty property. Nice area
Patrice (10/5): - Great! Breakfast offererings could be better
Shimizu (10/5): -
Bob (10/5): Outstanding inn Harwich - Spur of the moment trip We lived in Harwich Port for 20 years Usually stay at another in in town- full Got the last room here Outstanding inn Great staff Great stay
john (10/5): - Charming B&B in an ideal location. Very clean with a friendly staff. Would definitely return!!!
477annf (4/5): Very high price point for a very poor breakfasr -       just now New Although we had a pleasant stay at Winstead, sadly there were just too many issues we weren't happy with. Unfortunately, we had pre booked the hotel for eight nights at a cost of $608-$658 per night, so we couldn't leave early. The house is nice, old and full of character, there is a pool, and a beautiful garden. The Inn has their own beach, a short drive away, (not walkable). There is parking at the Inn but you need to check with the front desk about parking at the beach. Unfortunately, the room we had (chart room) had no tea or coffee making facilities and when we requested some, it took another four days to receive a kettle. There was hot water in the dining room, but it wasn't boiling. A suggestion was made to microwave it.. Our room had a lovely claw foot bath but on further inspection, paint was peeling off the inside of it making it unsafe to use. No bathrobes or shower gel available (just bars of soap). The breakfast was a very poor affair. There was no hot option except boiled eggs that sat on the buffet bar. There is no commercial kitchen so no cooking at all. We discovered that some mornings they buy in a quiche, and that's first come first serve. Available options included: a tiny bowl of fruit, some orange or cranberry cordial, generic sugary cereals, a bagel or English muffin , some chocolate muffins made from a packet, warm tea and coffee. If a hotel prices itself at such a high price point, I would expect a good breakfast, as we experienced in other places in Cape Cod. This was a most disappointing experience for us and at a cost of $6,130 for eight nights we would have expected better. We did chat with Doug, but the response was general indifference. Maybe it's because the hotel is up for sale. We move on to a wonderful B&B in Chatham which was one of the best places we have ever stayed on our travels around the world

Edward (10/5): - I felt that the staff was exceptional and immediately had answers to any questions. A very nice, relaxing time there.
Dylan (8/5): Staff was very friendly and helpful. Beautiful property, very convenient to be able to use the sister property at the be - Beautiful and clean. Room did not match what was described on Booking.com.
Juan (6/5): Eh. - Location was good. Strange albeit nice. We had 3 rooms and the keys worked in multiple rooms which was concerning. The TV in the room didn’t offer basic stations you’d expect for a place that charges prices like that. Pool closed at 7pm which again is just really weird given it’s the cape and you’re gone most of the day. Generally, nice place at 300-400 a night but for double that price it just doesn’t have anything that justifies that other than supply and demand. Woman at the front desk was very nice and when she was there was always available.
guletsky (9/5): Beautiful inn - The suite was roomy but it was the beautiful grounds I really loved. The breakfast was well thought out. Staff were lovely. Doors were locked always and sometimes on the inside
5678abby (10/5): Cute, clean, friendly B&B - Stayed two nights in the Mariner’s Hideaway room. It was adorable, and very well maintained. We get nervous when there is carpet in hotels because of bad experiences in the past, but it was very clean. Breakfast was a nice perk to the stay - and they offered the standard essentials (yogurt, bagels, fruit, pastries, boiled eggs that you make yourself) while also offering homemade quiche. Pool was great. No complaints about this stay and already recommended family to stay there. Great central location to exploring the cape.
Kingsberry (8/5): Very good -
Clare (9/5): Luv it there, would stay again! - Great pool, staff and rooms Noisy w cars if windows /door open
Kevin (9/5): Superb -
Kurt (10/5): Wonderful getaway at this hidden gem at the Cape, highly recommend staying at the Winstead Inn! - The Winstead Inn is a hidden gem that we discovered for a brief Cape getaway. The staff were amazing and very knowledgeable about the area. The room was spacious, the bed was very comfortable and the water pressure and temperature in the shower was ideal. The best part of the Inn was the grounds, which were extremely beautiful and well groomed. The pool felt like an oasis getaway, very quiet and peaceful. Breakfast was delicious with many options. We can't speak highly enough about this property and highly recommend it! Nothing, we will be back next year!
F Michael (10/5): - A wonderful property with a beautiful and quiet pool area and easy private beach access through its sister property.
Daniel (9/5): Superb -
Jay (10/5): - Near perfect, really. Get an e-bike up the street and you are 10 mins from the beach property without worrying about parking. Also, Harwich is fun and charming and you are also close to the rail trail. Pool was warm and setting was bucolic.
Maria (8/5): Nice stay, relaxing vacation - Breakfast, the pool, the beach, some of the staff members were extremely friendly and kind. Needing to request basic room necessities (towels, make the bed, etc). One day while staying at the beach hotel one of the young men working there asked us to clean up our beach chairs and umbrellas when we were finished with them. For the price spent per day, the staff should do this.
Alessio (9/5): Superb -
Salasse (10/5): Amazing place to stay, clean and breakfast is really good - Amazing place to stay with family. Nothing. Every thing was perfect.
maureenv961 (10/5): Wonderful 4-night stay - We couldn’t have had a lovelier experience. We were delighted to find availability there week of July 4th and enjoyed 4 relaxing nights with our 8 year-old son in tow. The pool was clean and warm—we spent time of every day there. And yet the place is intimate and charming; we enjoyed chatting with other guests but also enjoying the quiet. The Great Room is a gorgeous seeing for the continental breakfast and for quiet family time together too. The Inn’s staff was helpful and kind, and we popped over the beach resort for one morning on the beach. We also enjoyed all Harwich had to offer, including shopping, ice cream, shopping, a seal tour, and a day trip to Nantucket. We can’t wait to return.
Dianna (7/5): Lovely look, exceptionally clean but unwelcoming feeling overall. Kitchen and room staff exceptional. - The cleanliness, the continental breakfast was exceptional. The grounds were well manicured. Quiet neighborhood. It felt cold and unfriendly. A bit classist and judgmental of certain people. The windows don’t have anything but darkening shade and darkening curtain. My room was dark always because their were no privacy sheets and of shade was open someone else’s window was right there as well as the pool area. Very uncomfortable low end mattress.

JBAB7542 (10/5): Great Inn - We stayed at the Inn and it was great. We were a little disappointed that we had to drive to the beach resort for breakfast but it was really good and we were happy to walk the beach. Doug did make sure we had coffee first thing in the morning. Our room was big and the beds were so comfortable. The shower was large. The pool wasn’t open but the weather was chilly so we probably wouldn’t have swam.
Mary (10/5): - This was a cute spot on the cape. Very charming. Great location too!
Jf (10/5): Fabulous - Loved our room. It was large, spacious and the beds were really comfortable. The bathroom/shower was great too. The whole place was immaculate. Breakfast was very good. The owner was very welcoming and most helpful. Would highly recommend. Nothing!!

Brian (10/5): Though are stay was short the total staff was very friendly and inviting. We would stay there again with no hesitation. - Property was well kept and inviting. We thought about this and if you want a thing wrong all we could do is say is the form in the front pond.

Marianne (10/5): Best place we have stayed in New England - Everything! The Inn is absolutely beautiful. We stayed in CrowsNest - very comfortable and roomy. Sleep sofa and den area, breakfast area. King size bed was very comfortable. Shower was amazing and very enjoyable after a day at the private beach. Professional,personable and helpful staff. Breakfast delicious Nothing. Wish we could have stayed longer than a weekend but will definitely be back
Maureen (10/5): I loved the ocean stay . Wish I could have stayed longer. - The Breakfast was amazing. My daughter and I sat outside eating our breakfast and viewing the ocean and its beauty. However the separate facilities was difficult to find and absorbed some of our vacation time. Prices variate and lead to confusion. None
Neal (9/5): Superb -
F5847UIthomasm (10/5): Winstead in. Great place! - Great place to stay. Newly renovated room we stayed in the crows nest. Big comfortable bed and pullout couch and great shower. Staff was friendly. Antonio check us in and was very accommodating. Also, the weight staff and housekeeping were excellent. Great breakfast every day with quiche and fresh muffins and coffee. Lamia was the waitress and was very helpful and friendly.

Renee (10/5): - We recently stayed at the Inn for four nights in the Crow’s Nest, a beautiful and well appointed suite. The Inn is pristine and tastefully decorated. It is located in the beautiful and historic town of Harwich, very close to the ocean and many Cape Cod beaches. There are many fine restaurants close by, as well as quaint shops and lively taverns. Highly recommend!
Josephine (6/5): Disappointed .. v expensive stay - Old world charm .. No daily cleaning , breakfast had no hot choice Too far away from beach
E Gerry (10/5): - The queen bed in our room seemed to be more of a double and it was unfortunately a detractor to the stay but we’d go again and make sure we get a room with a king bed to be more comfortable
Yves (8/5): Very good - Very nice hotel, nice swimming pool. Rooms and bathrooms are good. Good that you can also go to the beach hotel. Breakfast is very good. Small and noisy uncomfortable bed. Green carpet in the room looks old.

Steve (10/5): Exceptional -
Rick (9/5): Excellent! Staff - Designated parking spaces The continuous noise from the 4 ac units in the dining area. The 3 spouts of water at the pool that were on all the time the pool was open, splashing on the water. They were noisy and intrusive, if you just wanted to relax in the pool.
Patricia (9/5): Beautiful Inn with exceptional employees! Great location and easy access to the beach. - The staff was exceptional-always went above and beyond. The Inn is beautiful, grounds are outstanding and breakfast was excellent. Really enjoyed our stay and will book again. Loved the location- central to so many sights. The only issue we had was the air conditioning unit in the bedroom. It was extremely loud- sounded like a truck driving over gravel. It was hard to get a decent night’s sleep. Think it’s time to change them out.
Anshuman (8/5): - This is an antique hotel . They gave us free upgrade to a suite from single room. Hotel building is old but in excellent condition. They have nice pool as well. Breakfast have good options with some on demand specialty too. And their staff was so humble and supportive. Only con is that there is some smell in sofa bed upon opening which might be there due to non usage from long time. Overall great stay here
Frances (10/5): A place not to over look - Very quiet Inn. Beautifully kept, with many outdoor spaces to relax. The heated pool is a bonus
anneaU9046HG (10/5): Exceptional - Would never go anywhere else. We have been coming to the Winstead for years after staying all over the Cape and once we landed at the Winstead there was no looking back thanks to Doug and Greg! Your friendly welcome, phenomenal breakfast, cleanliness, privacy and overall service is 10. Love both the Inn and the Resort and your flexibility to utilize both properties. You guys rock. Xo Anne and David Ames.
Sary (4/5): - Breakfast could have been better. Hard boiled eggs you have to boil yourself. The pastries were dry. They need to update breakfast.
John (9/5): Superb - Great setting, helpful staff, and a lovely pool
Andrea (10/5): Enjoyable, friendly staff, beautiful furnishings, would return - Breakfast was lovely, claw foot tub in our room was wonderful and the location was central to everything we were interested in Could use a mattress upgrade in the chart room
Susan (10/5): nice place - Very nice place..staff wonderful. Would stay there again.
O7253LAjessem (10/5): Exceeded our expectations! - We booked a fairly last minute booking to the beach resort. It was our first visit to the area - and certainly will not be our last. The sand was beautifully manicured and almost felt like powdery gulf sand we experience in Ft. Myers Beach! The weather was wonderful, and the hotel was lovely. Had a bit of a feel of a bed and breakfast. It’s an older property but very well maintained and quiet. Breakfast was modest but very adequate for our needs. Yummy pastries, hard boiled eggs, cereal and excellent coffee. We VERY much enjoyed the short walk to - and taking in the area shops and restaurants. They had an awesome pizza place, great bars with live music and fresh seafood, ice cream shops, and lots of shopping. Just an awesome area all around. We could have spent much longer. Recommend highly.
Diana (8/5): Excellent location and common area for breakfast was beautiful. - Breakfast was good and the location was perfect. The room wood panling and was dark. The room could have been brighter. The check in good have been smoother. Never saw the staff until breakfast, although they were very nice and friendly.
Lara (9/5): Superb -
Piotr (10/5): - Great place to stay at Cape Cod.Friendly staff.
Ashling (10/5): Exceptional - We had an amazing time at the Winstead Inn. The rooms were beautiful and spotless and the beds very comfortable. The swimming pool area is lovely. The big bonus was to be able to spend some time on the private beach at the other property located by the sea just a few minutes away.
luvtravel2 (10/5): Cape Cod Favorite - Beautiful inn with well maintained grounds, clean pool with ample supply of towels, attentive staff, and great location. We stayed in the Foreword Stateroom, which was large and clean with a patio and adjacent parking. The bathroom had a spa shower, quality toiletries, heated floor and plush towels. The breakfast was excellent and varied with a personable attendant. The beach ( a short ride) is gorgeous and the convenience of towels, chairs and umbrellas adds to the value. This is my favorite Cape Cod property.
Hu (10/5): Exceptional - Everything I found a ant on my bed
Anonymous (10/5): Can’t wait to stay again! - We loved everything ! Such great staff . Room was so cozy clean and just perfect. Food was just delicious and environment was enchanting. We had a bonus with being able to also share the private beach with their sister inn . The kids loved the pool too ! Nothing
Susan (6/5): - No one available after 8 pm to help w anything. Leave keys to door outside in mailbox - anyone could take them and walk in.
michael (10/5): - Excellent stay, we even had afternoon cookies and drinks. Staff went out if their way to please us. Landscaping was perfect as was everything else.

Cari-ann (7/5): Good - Beautiful grounds and relaxing atmosphere, staff were nice The beds were very uncomfortable, you can only swim until 8pm, there are no staff on after 8, there were no breakfast menus to see what is offered, the price was to high for the Mariners hide away room. The room was very small, with minimal amenities. No smoking area and if you did smoke they can charge you a $500 fine, they only give you one key per room so it's hard to do things separately. Did not feel like a resort
G9353OLjimg (10/5): Great place to stay - Stayed at the beach resort, great location and very central to town. The outdoor decks and private beach were comfortable and peaceful. Staff was great and breakfast was truly delicious. We would stay here again.
Kara (10/5): Exceptional - We were moved to the beach property. It was amazing.
Jeffrey (10/5): - Wonderful place with warm saltwater pool, delicious breakfast options, and in the Admiral’s Suite the jacuzzi tub was deep and perfect and the gas fireplace warmed up the room and added to the ambience. Would definitely stay again!
Brenda (9/5): Superb - Lovely inn. Friendly staff, very comfortable room and very nice amenities! I would come back!
