The hype
Guests universally adore the landscaping and cleanliness, often calling it a 'hidden gem' or 'oasis'.
Pleasant Bay Village
$225-470/ nuit
Réservez si You want a pristine, retro-charming garden oasis that feels like visiting a wealthy aunt's well-kept estate rather than a corporate hotel.
Pourquoi les gens l'adorent
- Immaculate 'Zen' gardens with waterfalls and a koi pond (free fish food included)
- Heated outdoor pool that is genuinely warm (often 82°F+)
- Family-run hospitality that feels personal, not transactional
En bref : It’s a 1980s motel soul in a garden of eden body—dated floral bedspreads, but cleaner than your own house.
Ce que les clients qui ont séjourné ici ont dit
Reality check
The decor is undeniably dated—think heavy floral drapes and pleather armchairs—but most forgive it because it's so well-maintained.
- You appreciate manicured gardens and koi ponds over modern minimalism
- You are traveling with a dog (very pet-friendly in specific rooms)
- You want a heated pool that isn't freezing cold
Propreté et entretien
9.5
- Housekeeping: Old-school thorough. Daily service that actually cleans, not just makes the bed.
- Bathroom hygiene: Spotless. Tiles are scrubbed, grout is white. High-pressure showerheads are a cult favorite.
- Maintenance: Impeccable. Despite the older buildings, everything is painted, fixed, and working.
- Linens & towels: Clean and crisp, though maybe not 1000-thread-count luxury.
- Odors & scents: Fresh air and flowers. No musty 'old cape' smell despite the age.
