There are over 250 Cape Cod bed and breakfast inns, each offering a slightly different experience for couples. Whether you're looking for the simple charm of a two or three bedroom house or the luxurious splendor of an inn that can house up to 50, you can probably find what you're looking for in our directory.

Many people ask us just what is the difference between an Inn and a Bed and Breakfast? The answer lies in the size of the property (a B&B typically has three rooms or less) and the prepared meals (an inn is usually set up to offer dinner as an option - although it's unlikely to be included in the price).

The great thing about staying in Cape Cod inns or bed and breakfasts is that the atmosphere and the ambience of the accommodation is very much a part of the vacation itself.

While some couples may come to the Cape and not care too much where they stay, as long as it's clean and convenient for the beaches and attractions, couples who stay in bed and breakfast inns are often looking for something else.

Maybe it's romance, or solitude, or just a chance to relax in a home-like setting, but Cape Cod bed and breakfasts and inns tend to attract a different type of clientele. Many hosts discourage families with young children from visiting, which makes them a little quieter and more peaceful for couples.

Your host at a Cape Cod bed and breakfast is likely to know the area very well, having probably lived on-Cape for many years. That makes them an excellent resource for local attractions that might go beyond the typical tourist traps. Fellow guests, too, will often have stayed there several times before and can steer you to places that the typical tour books won't necessarily point out.

So take a look at our directory and see what you can find. We've included basic information, a brief description, a photo where possible, and a link to the property's website.

On each property's page, there is also an invitation for guests to review their stay and rate their visit.
