Nice location, responsive host
Saybrook Manor was overall a pretty good place, but it could do with a bit more of a fine toothed comb on cleanliness at check-in. Very much felt like a good place to stay in for a week with five people and wasn’t so big that you can’t clean up at the end of the trip. Ceilings are a bit low for the top floor but you can just banish the kids to the top floor.

Great location, comfortable and clean!
Great location near beaches and everything Old Saybrook has to offer. Everything as advertised and air conditioning adjustable in every room was ideal. One improvement would be fans in the bathrooms. Thank you!

Short but sweet family reunion
Our group of 6 (most over 60) enjoyed our brief get-together in this comfortable, well-equipped house just a short walk from the beach. Weather wasn't conducive for beaching. But we enjoyed touring Old, Lyme, Essex, and Old Saybrook and seeing how much the area had (or had not!) changed since our childhood visits to the area.

Quiet stay at Seabrook
The house is very well kept and nicely furnished. There is plenty of room to spread out and an extensive DVD collection. The beds were comfortable and there were plenty of towels.The kitchen is newer and has everything you could possibly need.This is a very quiet and private neighborhood.The beach is only a 5 minute walk but if you have small children I recommend a wagon or cart to carry them and your chairs. We definitely recommend this place.

Comfortable Beds and Cozy
Our stay was cozy and quiet. We stayed off season during the end of December, the house was in quiet neighborhood tucked away by the water. The all of the beds were very comfortable and clean. There was small hiccup of the locking system not working for us but the host was able to virtually resolve this issue quickly. The host was promptly responding to my texts to remedy this issue. I would love to come again and stay during summer.
