Hello Eunice, Thank you so much for the kind words! We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. Very happy that you had a great visit to the 1661 Inn and Block Island.
During the off season, it's a place for quiet, rest and relaxation! If you need a moment to slow down, re-center one's self, and just enjoy nature... This is the place!

Hi Jeffrey, Thank you so much for the kind words and for sharing our experience at the 1661 Inn! We are so happy you had a great visit to Block Island.
The 1661 inn was a dream to stay at. I have always wanted to see block island in the winter and we finally made the trip during a freezing January weekend. I’m so glad the inn is open year round to accommodate guests. And while it was only us and one other man staying at the hotel they still offered us all the fanfare including wine and cheese and a beautiful breakfast. The room was gorgeous and the view was incredible. The sheets and towels were so soft, the room was cozy and impeccably clean. I also love that every room is different and unique in its decor! The staff was so friendly and polite. Thank you 1661 inn, we will be back :)

Off season was gorgeous and quiet and the weather and temperature were surprisingly comfortable for hiking. The availability for shopping was nonexisting which was ok for us but there were not many dining choices open on the islandbut we enjoyed what was avaiable. They had a nice continential breakfast and wine and cheese at the inn which we enjoyed. Gluten free breakfast choices were available for choosing which was much appreciated.

I love overlooking the water. The decks are really spacious with great views. The people working there are some of the warmest, nicest people I've ever met.The owner, Rita Draper is always checking in with residents to ask how they're enjoying their stay. Lovely people, lovely place.
Nothing bad to say!

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Property spectacular, room sub-par.
The ceiling in our room was hard to look at. It looked more like employee housing. But we love the property overall, and the bed and bedding were very comfortable.

The location is perfect. Walking distance to the ferry and across the street from a small farm, which is fun to visit. The complimentary wine and cheese at 4pm is a nice way to start the evening.

Hello, Thank you for staying with us at the 1661 Inn and family of properties on Block Island! We appreciate you sharing your kind words about the Farm and our Happy Hour. So glad you enjoyed your trip to Block Island. Hope you have a great rest of your summer.
Love the 1661 and visit almost every year. This year they seemed a little behind on its cleaning on a few days we were there -- but usually it's very good. Wondering if they are having staffing troubles like many places.

I’ve been coming to Block Island for over 40 years and this was the first time I stayed here. I must say this is one of the best places to stay bar none ! I had met the proprietor and she was warm,friendly and gracious ! I’ve never experienced that on this island.

Very special to have a wonderful free zoo across the street. Our room was a bit tiny.
