Love the location of the Anchor Motel, having the beach across the street was so pretty, thankfully the weather cleared, and we were able to explore all of Narragansett and Block Island

Safe, convenient location. Right across from the beach! There is a pizza place and ice cream shop a couple miles down the road, and seafood options. Might house also very close. Great location! Great service! If i was going to critique, its my personal preference, I prefer white towels :) so, if that is the only critique I can give, i would 100% stay here again!

Cute and cozy

Very cute little place with a great view of the water. If it had been a warmer night we couldve slept with the windows open and heard the waves crashing against the shore. Would definitely stay again when in the area!

My husband and I stayed here on a last-minute booking June 22, 2024. This is your basic motel with no restaurant or other amenities, which is what we were looking for and expected. Location was perfect directly across the street from the beach. Short drive to restaurants and shopping. We found it very clean! And the very little interaction we had with the front desk area was very pleasant. Great little gem!
