Beautiful views, quiet and peaceful surroundings, lovely breakfast, very helpful recommendations from the friendly staff, close to whale watching opportunities and great restaurants as well as nature preserves. Would stay here again if there was a room with windows facing the sea available!
All of the staff were gracious and helpful. Our room was very spacious and comfortable, The breakfasts were delicious most enjoyable. The proximity to town and the shops and galleries was very convenient.
The Yankee Clipper Inn is a throwback to the past in the best sense. The grounds and the Inn itself were so very peaceful and just invited you to slow down, enjoy the beautiful view and the atmosphere. The staff was warm and inviting and seemed to really enjoy being there. The breakfasts were fun and delicious and set the tone for the rest of day in quiet and elegant fashion. We will certainly stay there again if in that area and will be telling our family about it so that hopefully they too can someday enjoy it.

Made to order breakfast was very nice . And wait staff was very helpful and pleasant.
I wish we knew ahead of time about the spiral narrow staircase to our room as seniors 😦, also a two step up and down to get into bathroom was risky.
The Yankee Clipper Inn was an excellent choice in every way. The grounds, rooms and restaurant were perfect in every way.
Due to health concerns I called ahead asking to be moved to the first floor. No rooms were available, I was not able to change my reservation. However when I arrived they had moved rooms around to accommodate for my health issues.
I was unable to walk to enjoy the gazebo and waterfront but it was lovely from the restaurant porch seating area.
I can’t say enough about the staff and their hospitality.
Very nice getaway, a great location in proximity to Rockport and area attractions we visited Hammond Castle, Rockport Village, Castle Hill, and Halibut Point State Park.
Breakfast was delicious and staff great, our room and view were excellent. Only two negatives , the pool was under construction, and because it was a weekday the bar/lounge was closed. But overall an awesome stay and would definitely would stay again.
The view of the ocean from the room was spectacular, and the staff particularly Cameron and Allison were so helpful and friendly! The room was spacious and very comfortable. I would highly recommend the inn.
Great stay at the Yankee Clipper Inn. Such a cute hotel which is beautifully designed and kept. One of the best breakfasts I’ve had at a hotel. I think our server’s name was Claire and she was an absolute doll. Would highly recommend this hotel.
The breakfast was excellent and staff friendly and helpful. The property has great views of Rockport and the surrounding area. We stayed in-the Bullfinch house which is historic. Famous architect of the past.
