    We loved the charming hotel with its spacious outdoor seating areas. The rooms were surprisingly large and the beds were extremely comfortable. The attention to detail, like providing straw hats and sarongs for the beach, was a nice touch. The buffet breakfast was delicious, and we found the staff to be lovely and attentive.

    There was nothing we didn't like.

    The staff were friendly and helpful throughout our stay. The rooms were clean and comfortable, perfect for a relaxing vacation. We particularly enjoyed the complimentary breakfast, which offered a delicious and varied selection. it was a wonderful experience and we would definitely consider returning.

    Although the hotel had many positive aspects, there were a few things that could be improved. The noise level in our room was quite high, as we could hear other guests and noises from outside.

    Appreciated delightful views.

    The hotel had a central setting close to the ferry. Further, it was next to the beautiful harbor and a restful getaway in a beautiful setting and the Salt store. The room was tidy and brand-new, the beds were very comfy, included facilities we needed.

    We recently had a romantic escape on Shelter Island and stayed at a charming inn. The rooms were nicely decorated and the location was perfect, with easy access to nearby restaurants and cafes. We also enjoyed the relaxing atmosphere and the quaint verandah where we could unwind with a glass of wine.

    There were a few downsides to our stay. The noise level in our room was quite high, with poor soundproofing that allowed us to hear everything happening in the room above us and conversations from guests on the verandah outside our window.

    My husband and I recently stayed at The Chequit for our second wedding anniversary. We had never been to Shelter Island before and were eager to explore. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, and our room was clean and comfortable. The central location made it easy for us to visit various attractions. We enjoyed the delicious breakfast on the patio and the outdoor sitting porch overlooking the bay. The hotel had a charming and inviting atmosphere, with plenty of outdoor spaces to relax in. We would definitely recommend getting the breakfast mimosas!

    Couldn't recommend this hotel more.

    Loved my recent stay at a charming inn on Shelter Island for a quiet and relaxing weekend. The breakfast spread was lovely and beautifully presented, with a nice selection. The staff was friendly and helpful. The location was great, with a nice view of the harbor and it was not far from the ferry. Plus, there was a gorgeous outdoor dining space.

    Disliked the noise level in the cottage, with everything audible from upstairs and outside, including other guests chatting and drinking. The room was also ill-lit with an uncomfortable seating area.

    We had a wonderful time staying at this hotel. The location was perfect, away from the hustle and bustle of city life, but still very close to the ferry. The service was outstanding, from the friendly staff to the attentive housekeeping. We were welcomed with a refreshing drink upon arrival, and our room was well-equipped with amenities like heating, air conditioning, and a mini-bar. We loved spending time on the terrace, enjoying the garden furniture and the beautiful view. The in-room breakfast was delicious, and the staff member who served us was very accommodating. we had a fantastic experience here.

    We highly recommend this hotel to families looking for a relaxing getaway.
