Top Capt Bill & Sons Whale Watch Hotel Reviews

Castle Manor Inn

10/10 Excellent

"This place was awesome. The service was fantastic at Check In. Great view from my room super clean, comfortable beds a very relaxing stay"

The Highliner Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful clean room right in the heart of Gloucester! Perfect for walking anywhere"

Single Level Home - Steps to Downtown Gloucester & A/C throughout

10/10 Excellent

"We loved our stay at Jo Ann's beautiful home! It was ideally located. -- walkable to shopping, restaurants, and major attractions -- and felt like our home away from home! Should you be visiting Gloucester, I would highly recommend her home. Amazing hospitality!"

Harborview Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Clean, quiet, comfortable, and the host was wonderful. We truly enjoyed our short time in Gloucester, and staying at the Harborview Inn added to that enjoyment. If we are ever in the area again, we would stay here again without hesitation."

WaterViews Overlooking Gloucester Inner Harbor /Sunroom/ Deck /Walk to Town/ AC

10/10 Excellent

"Our visit to 21 Friend was outstanding as usual. We are repeat customers for this location for numerous reasons. The first reason is the hostess. Kathy is a true professional in what she provides as a hostess to every guest. She is easy to contact and willing to assist you in any way possible, The next positive factor is the amenties 21 Friend provides. I have rented Vrbo units worldwide and I have never seen a location exceeds the features/supplies and household items offered in 21 Friend street. As an example where have you found a grand piano in a rental unit - one is here. The kitchen is fully equipped with the basic essentials and Kathy has added bonus items such as a trash compacture, two ovens, and a cord of fire wood for the fireplace. Additionally, if you need something, just ask Kathy and she will probably find it somewhere in the house. Another important factor for choosing this location is the excellent cleaning aspects of 21 Friend st. After the cleaning service completes their work, Kathy followups with love and attention to every detail. Finally, the view from 21 Friend of the Gloucester Harbor is beautiful and every attraction the city has to offer is within a 10 minute drive. This is a great location to visit and my family and I look forward to every visit. p.s. we are already booked for 2027. Thanks Kathy"
