Delicious Dining Experience

The Shade restaurant at Higgins Beach Inn was a highlight of my stay. The breakfast offerings were fabulous and had great options, while dinner on the screened-in porch was a good experience. The meals were thoughtfully prepared and presented, making each dining occasion special.

Charming Room Decor

I stayed in a bright and sunny room on the third floor that was recently renovated. The tasteful modern rustic design and vintage poster art made the space feel unique and cozy. The comfortable furnishings and quiet AC made my stay extra enjoyable.

Ultimate Comfort in the Bedroom

The bedroom was beautifully decorated and featured a huge, comfortable bed with soft sheets that invited relaxation. I loved lying in bed with the ample lighting available for reading. It truly felt like a home away from home.
