Alton Bay Fishing Holidays

We loved our stay at the Snowvillage Inn. It is a renovated historic house with so much character. The room was comfortable and the view was breathtaking.

Best resort ever! I can't say one bad thing about this place. Loved loved loved the room they gave us! Super huge and spacious! amazing bathroom, all impeccably decorated and a most comfortable bed. the pool area is gorgeous and relaxing. the restaurant totally spectacular. they had Mercedes - like 5 of them of all types, including a Mayback that they just lend out to their guests for 4 hours at a time. They also have bikes and the town is very bicycle friendly. The hotel is perfectly situated between the downtown brimming with restaurants and cafes and the gooches beach that allows dogs during certain hours so our doggie got to swim in the ocean for the very first time in her life. Was brilliant. the whole stay totally memorable. could not recommend this place any more. please go!

nice building walkable to shopping + dining

We had an amazing stay at Cliffhouse and were pleasantly surprised by how beautiful it is. The only minor issues we encountered were that the pullout couch was quite uncomfortable for our kids, and it was frustrating that children aren’t allowed in the main pool—everyone with kids ends up crowded around a small pool off to the side. Aside from that, everything else was fantastic!

Lovely and knowledgeable staff. Welcoming and romantic stay in a foodie and artsy community.

We chose Inn by the Sea because it was advertised as a “pet-friendly” property with beach access for pets, which was a key factor in our decision. Unfortunately, our experience didn’t quite align with those expectations. We arrived on a Sunday around noon and, as expected, our room wasn’t ready (check-in is at 4:00pm). However, unlike many hotels, we were not offered anything while we waited — no welcome drink, light refreshment, or even an early check-in estimate — despite having to wait the full four hours. Once we checked in, we were told our assigned room was not pet-friendly, and we would be charged for any accidents — despite booking under the premise that this was a pet-friendly stay. Additionally, the restaurant only allows pets in the outdoor seating area, and the pool area is not pet-friendly at all. So while the hotel does accommodate pets in some areas, it’s misleading to call it fully pet-friendly when the main guest amenities are off-limits. That said, the property is beautiful and most of the staff were friendly and professional, which we appreciated. But overall, if you’re traveling with a pet and hoping for a truly integrated experience, this may not be the best fit.

We stayed in one of the older / darker rooms. It had charm but in hindsight, I would have preferred the brighter rooms which were pictured on the website. A hot breakfast is included with one hot dish each morning as well as fruits and yogurt. One of our egg dishes was undercooked and the yogurt offered was underwhelming- most likely from store bought containers. It is a great location, walking distance to all of the restaurants, bars and shopping. We had our car so we were able to drive to other popular sites including the beach.
