Amazing!! Absolutely wonderful place to stay!! As promised, it was clean and quiet. The owner was super nice, breakfast was too notch, & turn down service was a pleasant treat. My only suggestion, even though we had our balcony to sit on, it would’ve been nice to sit outside (ground level) on some lounge chairs to put up our feet and enjoy the atmosphere. But it’s just that, a suggestion. We will definitely be return visitors to this establishment next year! Thank you to everyone at The Anchor Inn who made our stay exactly what we expected it to be.

Room was well kept and nicely sized. The staff was excellent and helpful. The breakfast was included and starts at 8:30 AM, so if you like to sleep in, this will work great for you. Although we did arrive a little early, they were very accommodating and Cheff Paul makes a great breakfast. The heating in the room did not work, and being early in the year and just opening for the season, the heat was still needed. The owner did get us a room heater, and it was effective at bringing the room up to a comfortable level for the night. Parking was free, but we drove a Jeep Wrangler to the hotel, and the parking was tight on both sides. When ready to pack up, we simply pulled out a little and were able to load up just fine. Overall, it was a nice hotel, and we would stay again next time visiting the island.

Our stay here was way beyond our expectations. This place is absolutely beautiful, its like a Hallmark movie. The room was bigger than I thought, with a sitting area and a lake house / beach decor. The owner's Paul and Emily are so welcoming and very outgoing people. This place is walking distance to everything on the island. The location is perfect. Now, my favorite part of my stay here was the Breakfast. It was amazing and included in your stay. The owner Paul is the chef and he is creatively talented with the breakfast options. They offer an extra ordinary continental breakfast, regular breakfast items with a upscale added version. You can also order from Paul's special menu. I had a Cast iron blueberry dutch baby which was delicious. My husband had the Chilaqueles, which he has had in Mexico and said Paul did it exceptionally well. I would suggest when getting breakfast to eat it outside on their covered porch and people watch. Looking forward to my next stay here.
