“We had a great time at 1661. Our room was large and bed very comfortable. They even had a wonderful jacuzzi bathtub in our room. The farm across from the hotel has rabbits, camels, chickens, and more! Fun to explore. It is a great location right near downtown center and the perfect views of the ocean for breakfast. Breakfast was fresh and delicious. Staff were all kind and helpful- than you to Eric and the whole crew.”
“My husband, our young-adult Sons, and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay; the wine hour was a wonderful moment of relaxation, and the breakfast was divine. The staff members are friendly. My children want to come back. Thank you for allowing us to check in early and check out at 12:00 PM—that was a great extra, especially it was raining a little. We are grateful for your wonderful hospitality... we will be back.”
“My family of 4 stayed the in Farm and Garden suites over Mother's Day weekend. We had a wonderful time biking and hiking on the trails. It was beautiful and peaceful on the island in May. We loved staying at the 1661 resorts. The breakfast was amazing even in the off season. They described it as a continental breakfast but it was much more! Everything was delicious. And the afternoon wine and nibbles was a nice treat. So nice to sit on the back patio with ocean views. We also enjoyed stopping to say hello to the farm animals on the way to our rooms. I would definitely go back and stay at the 1661 resorts if I am back in Block Island.”
“The 1661 Resort is just magical. I was very pleasantly surprised by The Eureka. It exceeded my expectations in every way and the room we stayed in was just perfect. My only complaint was that the closet didn't have a long enough hanging space to accommodate long dresses. There was an iron and ironing board which was nice, bathroom toiletries, water pressure was great, and the walk from The Eureka to the main building is great. Loved the breakfast and the wine and nibbles in the afternoons. Our deck space off of our room was a dream! We enjoyed our early mornings and evenings spent on it. We can't wait to return!”
“I really enjoyed my stay at 1661. I was on the Is for a sunset surprise proposal and needed an overnight stay. The off-season rate was very doable. I had the room that had a shared bathroom and at first I thought it was going to be kind of a weird situation, but it really was not. I just really needed it to be able to take a quick shower and brush my teeth. The only room on the first floor. It was clean. It had a cute little balcony with really nice chairs. They had a window. I could crack to let the wind blow in and it had a split unit AC. The bed was really comfortable and I had a great night sleep. I would absolutely stay there again”
