We have returned to the Whalewalk Inn several times, and definitely will return! This is truly a special place.from the setting itself to the rooms to the breakfasts. the innkeepers are great - very helpful with dinner reservations and suggestions of activities in the area.

We also had to change our plans due to the hurricane and found Kevin and Elaine to be most accommodating and helpful!

I just returned from 8 nights at the Whalewalk Inn & found it to be such a relaxing place. The Carriage House Room # 6 was just perfect - the gas fireplace was a nice touch as well as the private deck. I never heard the other guests at all & I am a light sleeper. The breakfasts were different each day and delicious. It was nice to enjoy breakfast outside on the patio when the weather was good.
The only thing that was not top deck was the shower - it was so small that couldn't turn around without hitting my elbow on the wall. The bathroom was huge with a corner whirlpool, but the shower could use a lot more space. Other than that, the room was spotless and very comfortable. If you are looking for a quiet spot, this is it.

We stayed here in late August/early September. B/c of TS Irene we had to alter our plans. The hosts were very accommodating in allowing us to shift our plans around.

The variety and quality that Ellen incorporates into her breakfasts is top notch. My wife can't stop talking about the homemade granola.

The inn is in a very nice location (Eastham just over Orleans line) b/c it's close enough to Orleans town center without being too close. The location also allows easy access to Nauset/Skaket beaches in Orleans and bayside/ocean beaches in Eastham and Wellfleet.

We stayed in the Carriage House (Rm. 1). The only complaint I have of the room and of the CH in general is that the walls are very thin. We could hear the snoring of the guests in an adjacent room. On another night we could hear the entire conversation (7-11 pm)of a new set of guests in the same adjacent room.

The room itself is nicely appointed and of a good size. I'm a stickler for details and this room was very clean. The bed was very comfortable and allowed for great sleep.

I would highly recommend this B&B for a short or long stay.

My reservation was set for the day before Hurricane Irene hit, and people were being warned to avoid coming to Cape Cod. The Inn owners retained my deposit, but offered a credit that could be used in the next few months. Because I live 3,000 miles away, I asked if the credit could be extended for two years. The owner refused, referring to the recommendation to buy trip insurance. In my opinion, the owners have been unreasonable with me.
