I am not one to write reviews, but felt the need to after spending a weekend here. We were blown away by the hospitality and service. The innkeepers go above and beyond to ensure a pleasant stay with thoughtful gestures.

Breakfast was incredible (100% would stay just for the breakfast), room was well appointed, comfortable, and as described on the website. The pool and garden are beautiful. 5 minute drive from the beach, although the pool was so lovely we spent most of our time there!
We definitely intend to return in the future and are already referring our family and friends here!
Thank you for a wonderful vacation!

The room was super comfortable, enjoyed the Jacuzzi tub. Bed was very comfortable, and breakfast in the morning was exactly what I was looking for, and had a wonderful conversation with the hosts. Highly recommend booking this place for a getaway.

The Villa Bed and Breakfast exceeded all of our expectations. John and Juli Anne, the Inn Keepers were so delightful, lovely and accommodating. Their attention to details made our stay memorable. Looking forward to our next visit to this amazing piece of paradise.

To say John and Heather are amazing is an understatement! They've thought of every detail and are the kindest couple! The room was immaculate, breakfast was prepared to perfection and we had so much fun exploring the grounds and the surrounding city of Westerly. They made sure our honeymoon was absolutely perfect! We are already planning our return trip. Thank you John and Heather!
