Hunting Island Luxury Vacations

This hotel should be rated as a five star hotel! It's super clean, has friendly staff! I do wish the laundry machines were able to accept debit/credit cards but otherwise the hotel is fantastic!!!! I would recommend anyone this hotel!

My husband and I have stayed in two other Relais and Chateaux properties (Hotel Wailea in Maui and Chatham Inn in Cape Cod) and both were stunning in terms of hotel grounds, cleanliness, room and hotel decor and staff helpfulness and service. For each of our three stays we were celebrating special occasions and all locations personalized our birthday and anniversary occasions with champagne and a personal note. Planters Inn sent a piece of coconut cake for my 66th birthday which was delicious and much appreciated. The downfall of Planters Inn is that room #226 had stains on a couple of the chairs and on the carpet. There was someone else's hair on the bathroom floor when we arrived which is a pet peeve of mine, especially at a highly rated hotel. The bathroom itself contained a plastic tub/shower instead of a walk-in shower. The mattress on the bed was old and unsupportive which did not lend to a good night's sleep and the "night stand" was so far away from the bed I had to sit up to reach my phone or turn the light off and on. What was worst of all was getting awakened at 6:30 in the morning to the sounds of trash thunking in the dumpster outside our window. It was in very poor taste for the hotel management not to have told us about the renovation going on which would have allowed us to make an informed decision about whether to book the hotel or not. We loved the city, the people, the food and the history but we will NEVER return to this hotel.

Having complimentary cheese and wine served in the courtyard

A very good stay. The only negative was the breakfast- it wasn’t as good as the Hampton Inn, and we expected better. A couple of oddities- (1) the glass door to the shower opened into the shower instead of into the bathroom which causes a person to get wet by just turning the shower on; (2) even though most people have a smart phone or watch- still thought it odd the suite did not have a clock. We would stay there again.

Staff was great, clean room, close to multiple restaurants
