Accommodations

Cape Ann offers a charming mix of hotels, inns, and vacation rentals that capture the spirit of New England’s coastal beauty. In Gloucester, visitors can choose from historic inns, boutique hotels, and oceanfront resorts, many just steps from the beach or the bustling harbor. Whether you’re looking for a romantic seaside escape, a family-friendly suite, or a cozy bed and breakfast tucked away on a quiet street, Gloucester’s accommodations blend comfort, character, and sweeping waterfront views.

Rockport is equally enchanting, with its collection of quaint inns, historic guest houses, and charming motels. Many are nestled within walking distance of Rockport’s galleries, shops, and the iconic Bearskin Neck. Staying in Rockport often feels like stepping into a postcard, with rooms offering scenic vistas of rocky shores, colorful fishing boats, and brilliant sunsets over the Atlantic.

In Essex and Ipswich, visitors will find a quieter, countryside retreat, where elegant inns and cozy B&Bs offer a peaceful home base surrounded by farmland, salt marshes, and historic charm. Essex is perfect for those looking to relax after a day of antiquing or boating along the Essex River, while Ipswich accommodations often highlight the town’s colonial roots and easy access to beautiful beaches like Crane Beach.
