This B&B has both pro's and con's, the owner Ann was very friendly, the breakfast was ok, the rooms were clean and it was just steps from town cntr, main street. The Cons were the room was tiny and the views were semi obstructed by rooflines, telephone poles and wires. If light is an issue for you sleeping not for... More

We've been coming back year after year and have stayed in all of the Blue Dory properties, with the Avonlea being our favorite! An absolutely amazing view from the deck watching the sunrise and sunset, not to mention hearing the waves each night! The location is just steps from the beach and center of town. We enjoy the wine and... More

We were looking forward to our stay at the blue dory. The website photos depicted a bright and charming New England inn. Alas, the years of wear and tear has left its mark and the inn needs a thorough overhaul. We stayed at the tea house and it is nothing like the website photos. Small, dated and dirty (hair on...

This is the 4th time we've stayed at the Blue Dory. The attention to detail by the staff is excellent, the rooms are lovely and welcoming, and the location is ideal. The famous Blue Dory chocolate chip cookies smell heavenly and are not to be missed. The Inn is just a short walk from the ferry, local restaurants, and Crescent... More

As it entered the harbor and began the turn-around, I walked to the landing to meet him. We attended an afternoon poetry reading, then enjoyed wine, cheese and cookies in the beautiful parlor at Blue Dory Inn. The next... More

Our wonderful family gave us a long weekend on Block Island and though we are well-traveled, neither my husband nor I had been there before. We were able to bring our dog, Dinah, who thoroughly enjoyed the trip, including hiking, and her first beach experience. We loved the cool but sunny weather, Ann's gracious and intelligent attention and the relaxing... More

This has become an annual Thanksgiving trip for our family and it never disappoints. I actually feel as if I am coming home when I visit. The staff is friendly, kind, and quietly aware of how to make visits the best they can be.

I stayed here during the week in August. Had the pleasure of having Ann Law check my friends and I in, and she was extremely helpful and accommodating. I stayed in the Rosewind Room on the first floor at the Blue Dory property with its own private bath. A king size bed and a twin was more than enough space... More
