This hotel is really unique. The Inn was built in the 1880’s and makes you feel like you’re stepping back in time. It’s in a beautiful location right on the bay with breathtaking views. The owner, Sam, took great care of us including getting up early to make cappuccino on the front porch and share stories about the buildings use during prohibition to smuggle illegal booz into the county.

I had an exceptional stay at Tavern on the Bay Resort! The serene atmosphere and stunning ocean views created the perfect backdrop for a relaxing getaway. The staff were incredibly welcoming and attentive, ensuring every detail of our stay was just right. The room was clean.The on-site dining was amazing, with delicious meals served in a charming setting. I highly recommend this resort to anyone looking for a peaceful retreat by the ocean.
