Accommodations

$100–150

With its well-maintained gardens and homey rooms, the Nantucket House of Chatham (2647 Main St., Chatham, 508/432-5641, $130–185), an old white Greek Revival house within easy distance to downtown Chatham [1] and the beach, is a veritable bargain for the area.

$150–250

Nestled on the stunning marsh of a private Wellfleet beach, Aunt Sukie’s Bed and Breakfast (525 Chequesset Neck Rd., Wellfleet, 508/349-2804, www.auntsukies.com [2], $195–270) is a peaceful and friendly place to stay with antiques-filled rooms (some with fireplaces and water views) and first-rate homemade continental breakfasts every morning.

$250 and Up

Arguably the premiere resort on all of Cape Cod [3],
Chatham Bars Inn (297 Shore Rd., Chatham, 508/945-0096, www.chathambarsinn.com [4], $299–685) pulls out all the stops on subdued luxury. It’s one of the area’s most lauded—and with a full-service spa, a restaurant serving food that’s nothing short of impeccable, and a breezy spot on gorgeous Pleasant Bay, it’s easy to see why.
