It was just the right place and location for my family for a quick getaway. The Gothic was very cute and well suited for our short stay and our grown girls loved the bunks. Would have been nice to have some hospitality water bottles, snacks and tax in the room, but still a great 2 bedroom house

We tried to touch base with a manager on multiple occasions prior to leaving the island but were told none were available. Good: The beach property was beautiful - and why we booked at the resort. Bad: Unfortunately, our tv sound did not work despite multiple attempts - which we ultimately overlooked. Thereafter, we went to the pool and people who were not resort guests were there - smoking, drinking full liquor bottles, taking full blown showers in the outdoor showers (shampoo, conditioner, using a razor), and to top it all off - a man (again, not a guest) undressed outside in front of everyone - including children. Again, we tried to overlook this and went to the beach instead. In the middle of our sleep a loud banging on our door startled us awake - twice. It sounded like it was going to break the door open. Eventually, found to be a local by staff who broke into the hotel (and up to the second floor to where our room was. Eventually the culprit was confronted by security (?police) outside of the hotel. I have emailed our concerns multiple times and no one will reply to this day.

This hotel was great for the weekend. The room was clean, comfortable and aesthetically pleasing. The location of the hotel itself is in the middle of everything. The main hotel has the restaurant and beach access while most of their rooms are located in what seems to be houses converted into a hotel down the street. The restaurant at the hotel is not worth your time, the food is lackluster and over priced. However the national hotel across the street has a pretty good menu and service. The beach was nice and the attendant was great, just make sure to go early to get your chairs/umbrella they go quick. If you want nice sand clear water and privacy go to mansion beach it’s about 10 mins away from the hotel. Block island was a great weekend getaway with a Caribbean vacation feel without taking a flight.

While the location was ideal and the beach access and attendant at the beach were wonderful, the overall experience was not great. Even though they describe the rooms as small on the website, it is even smaller in person and the condition of the room was poor with many issues. The customer service was only ok and it didn’t feel like the experience was worth it for the price.
