Just returned from an extended weekend at the Atlantic. We should have read the reviews prior to booking. This was one of the most unfriendly, unwelcoming places I have ever stayed. The innkeeper should look for another line of work - he is definitely not people oriented. The owner and front desk staff obviously don't communicate. The rates quoted when... more

My family and I have been going to Block Island for 25 years and love it more than anywhere else in North America. This year, due to foreign travel, my wife and I were the only ones able to go to "The Block" and even then only for a few days. We decided to go to the Atlantic Inn where... more

The Atlantic Inn surpassed our expectations. The rooms are a little twee for our tastes but the location, the service in the evenings and the views made up for any deficiencies. We were able to leave our luggage in reception on the first day and headed to the beaches. When we returned rather windswept and sandy, our rooms were ready... more

On Friday, July 24, with a 6:00 pm, reservation ~ we arrived 10-15 minutes late ~ very gracious host. The young woman who served us was knowledgeable about the food and wine. She was pleasant ~ bright ~ and a smile There were six in our party. The Atlantic was recommended from a chef / restaurant critic from Seattle Washington.... more

We stayed at the Atlantic this past fall for the Labor Day Weekend and meant to write this earlier (we are now planning our '09 trip). My wife and I stumbled upon the Inn while touring New England and had the most pleasant of surprises with the Atlantic. The rooms were not Huge but well appointed, tasteful and above all... more

My friend and I stayed here for a few nights in August. I had heard that the owner (the husband) is an unpleasant piece of work, from reports online and from other travelers, and sure enough when I met him he was indeed an unpleasant piece of work. He seems mostly concerned with reading and writing text messages on his... more

I booked this place for an August short vacation because the location looked terrific. Unfortunately, that's all it has going for it. The owners/managers are rude and unhelpful. The rooms are cramped and uncomfortable. We happend to be there for an unusual heat spell, so the lack of AC (which alone is not a big issue) made sleeping there almost... more

My husband and I just returned from a 4 night, 5 day stay at the Atlantic Inn on Block Island for the 2008 July 4th holiday. I must say that I am extremely disappointed. When I called to make the reservation, they told me we must stay a minimum of 4 nights. That should have been an omen, but we... more

A great little B&B. No TV's or A/C but neither are necessary here. The rooms are on the smaller side, but there is a phenomenal view of the ocean. Enjoy the view from the adirondack chairs. The breakfast leaves a little to be desired, but the be sure to eat dinner in the restaurant. Its possibly one of the best... more
