From the reviews

I left a review on TripAdvisor and thought I would leave one here. We stayed at the Nauset Beach Inn from Dec. 30 to Jan. 1 for a New Years getaway. The ocean views from this hotel are amazing. The rooms are clean and cozy. The staff is great.

★★★★★ — Jon, Jan 2025

I loved having an ocean view from the window and easy access to the beach. I think it would be nice if there is was a path across the front so you are not walking through the grass. It was wet for both days I was there so I ended up with wet feet/shoes and a wet floor inside.

★★★★☆ — Stacy, May 2025

Our wedding at the Nauset Beach Inn was nothing short of perfection. Perched on a bluff overlooking the ocean, it offers the most breathtaking, unobstructed views of Nauset Beach.

★★★★★ — Pilar, Oct 2025

The Nauset Beach Inn is one of the few remaining slices of old Cape Cod still accessible today. The hosts and staff are wonderful - extremely helpful without being obtrusive.

Getting married at Nauset Beach Inn

Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see the ceremony spot at the exact time of day you'd say your vows — a west-facing beach glows at sunset but bakes at noon, and you'll want to feel the wind, watch where the sun sits, and walk the path your guests take across the sand. Second, bring your real questions: the weather backup (where does the ceremony move if it rains or the wind kicks up?), who pulls the beach permit, the sound-ordinance curfew, the catering and bar policy, and exactly what's included — chairs, setup, and teardown on sand are where quotes quietly diverge. Peak beach dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
