Chatham Bars Inn is a lovely escape that nails New England charm, featuring stunning ocean views and delightful culinary experiences. While the room we had was cozy and enjoyable, the high resort fee during the winter seemed unnecessary, and we noticed the dining could be slow at times. The staff were eager to assist, but the overall experience felt overshadowed by a few shortcomings in communication and value for money.

The cottages are well-equipped and comfortable, although some guests might find the lack of elevators inconvenient, especially if traveling with heavy bags. The food quality is exceptional, particularly at the STARS restaurant, but some dining experiences may not live up to expectations.

The facilities are elegant and well-maintained, but be wary of booking a cabana at the pool; the value doesn't match the high price tag.
