1661 Inn is a really amazing place.Year after year we see the same kind faces. It makes us feel at home.The summer interns are fun, too. The property is beautifully kept, the ocean views are just wonderful. The Farm is a delight and I love visiting the animals. Having said all that, the people of 1661 are what truely make this place special, from the owner Rita and her family to the front desk and especially the breakfast staff. Always smiling and offering help, wonderful people. Thank You!

What an amazing property! Although our room didn’t have a view, it was hard to escape the ocean view across the beautiful grounds. There were many seating areas to sit and enjoy. The landscaping was beautiful with many varieties of flowers in bloom. The breakfast buffet was ample and varied, plenty to appeal to any appetite, and a bargain compared to other breakfast buffets. The room and general Inn were spotless. The shuttle to the ferry was a nice perk. We even got to visit the farm and its’ animals. The staff were extremely helpful with recommendations from beaches to bike rentals. We would highly recommend this property!

The 1661 Resort is hands down my favorite place to stay on Block Island. The views are absolutely breathtaking. It's also far enough from the downtown bars and crowds that you can truly relax and enjoy the peace and quiet, while still being just a short walk or bike ride away from everything. The resort is beautiful, and the recent updates to the farm and the new spa and fitness area across the street make it even better. Everything feels fresh, thoughtfully designed, and adds to the overall experience. I can't wait to come back!

We love the 1661 for many reasons and now there is more to love. The addition of the gym and sauna as well as the expanded farm are great additions. The only suggestion I have is to use wd 40 on the doors so that when you close a door it doesn't creak and squeak. The insulation between rooms is minimal and I could hear doors closing and opening all night.
