Great stay at the Yankee Clipper Inn. Such a cute hotel which is beautifully designed and kept. One of the best breakfasts I’ve had at a hotel. I think our server’s name was Claire and she was an absolute doll. Would highly recommend this hotel.

This hotel is clean, quiet and beautiful. It’s right on the water and our room had a balcony we could sit on. Each guest gets a made to order breakfast each morning seated in the dining room with beautiful views. I would choose to stay there again.

We liked that we were right on the ocean and could see the tide come in and out. Also, it was fun to watch the lobster fishermen harvest their catch. The staff was very accommodating and the breakfast was first rate. We would like to come back sometime.

Our stay at the Yankee Clipper about 2 weeks before Christmas was awesome. Our room had a beautiful view of the ocean, only one thing, the room was on the 3rd floor, which was hard for me because I don’t do stairs well. Next time I’ll ask for the 2nd floor. I would definitely recommend going to Bearskin Neck during the holidays, there were horse drawn carriages, carollers and many little shops. We had a lot fun, will be coming back, for sure

Staff was excellent friendly helpful. Breakfast was also excellent Room was clean except for 1 pillow case and the box of tissues was empty. Tom was quite small and not enough electrical outlets.(only 1side of the bed could plug in phone chargers) Views of the sea are Gorgeous Place is a bit far from the town so you need to drive

We had a wonderful stay at the Yankee Clipper Inn. The location is amazing. The building is full of charm. The breakfast is fantastic. And the hospitality by from the manager Mike can't be beat. We stayed across the street at the Bull Finch house and still had an amazing view. We walked to town (about 1.25 miles). You get beautiful views and close ups of some very nice homes. We will definitely go back.

We truly enjoyed our stay at The Yankee Clipper Inn. We stayed in the Quarterdeck Inn that’s next to the larger Inn. Our room overlooked the ocean. It felt like we were on a cruise ship - it looked that close. The room was spacious with a really nice sitting area where you can view the ocean. The room was clean, comfortable with a small but updated bathroom. The Inn was very quiet and well maintained. Parking is close but keep in mind you have a manage down a granite stairway to get to the Inn. Each morning we walked over to the Yankee Clipper for breakfast. The staff there were amazing. Super friendly, and can handle anything you need. Mike at the front desk (I assume is the owner or manager) Is great. The made to order breakfasts were delicious. The grounds are breathtaking - walkways, patios, cliffs, sunrise views - all beautiful. We loved every minute there. The area around the Inns are so much fun - its about a 15 min walk (or a 3 min drive) to the main town but well worth it and easier than I expected. The town has tons of shops, a couple beaches and many restaurants to check out. The city of Gloucester is just a few mins drive and worth the visit. Be sure to drive up Halibut Point State Park while you’re in Rockport. I am usually ready to head home after a vacation week - but I wished we could have stayed longer!

The management & staff were exceptional in every sense of the word. Everyone was attentive, helpful, professional & courteous. Actually they were a fun group. The only situation we were uncomfortable with concerned the rate of decent of the stairs leading to our room. That being said the view from the room made it worth while. We will definately return but request a rppm on the main lodge. EAD

Spectacular ocean views in traditional inn

The Inn has a wonderful spot right next to the ocean. We stayed in an ocean view room with balcony (Neptunes Car) in the Quarter Deck House. The views were spectacular from an almost floor to ceiling window as well as from the private deck. Booking through hotels.com gets you reward nights but you cannot choose the room you want. Typically allocated on arrival. I had already looked on the inn’s website and Mike graciously agreed to my choice. He did recommend contacting the hotel directly in future to discuss the many room options and rates. Breakfast was plentiful with a good selection of pastries, fruit/yogurt, cereals and juices. There is also a made to order selection of hot breakfast choices also and plenty of free flowing coffee and tea. In the quarterdeck house there was a communal fridge and microwave for guest use. The room was spotless and helpful it had an iron/ironing board also. It has a massive tv that you can stream online services like Netflix. This is a traditional Inn set between 3 different old buildings so please expect the floors to creak a bit and the furnishings/decor to be in keeping. You will find interesting old furnishings and rustic charm rather than modern interiors/minimalist design. The bed was very comfy and linens had high threadcount. Shame no duvet just sheet and blanket but thats personal preference Bear in mind no food other than breakfast and no bar. However, Rockport is only 30 minute walk or 5 min drive.
