Where to stay

Best areas in New Shoreham (Block Island) for a hot tub stay

Not every area in New Shoreham (Block Island) hits the same vibe. Here's where each verified property actually sits, and what each pocket feels like at night.

Old Harbor Village & the Ferry

Right in the Victorian ferry village on Dodge Street, steps from the boats, shops, restaurants, and the start of Crescent Beach. Best for first-time and car-free visitors who want to walk off the ferry straight to their inn and dinner.

Spring Street & the Bluff Road

Just above Old Harbor along Spring and High Streets, on the road toward Mohegan Bluffs and the Southeast Lighthouse. Best for couples wanting a quieter perch a short walk from the village with the bluffs close at hand.

Corn Neck Road & Crescent Beach

North of Old Harbor along Corn Neck Road toward Crescent Beach, a quieter, greener stretch close to the island's long swimming strand. Best for beach-first travelers wanting calm and sand a short ride from the village.

Things to do in New Shoreham (Block Island)

Beyond the hotel room

Block Island's 10-mile length rewards slow exploration on foot, bike, or moped. Mohegan Bluffs and the Southeast Lighthouse anchor the island's south side — 150-foot clay cliffs with a long stairway down to the beach and stunning light-keeping views. Crescent Beach (Fred Benson Town Beach) is the island's long, swimmable east-shore strand, perfect for a post-hike soak. Old Harbor is the Victorian-era ferry village of grand hotels, shops, and harborside restaurants. Head to the island's tip for North Light at Sandy Point and the National Wildlife Refuge, where seabirds and migrants pass through spring and fall. Explore the Greenway, a conservation-trail network crisscrossing the island's south end, alongside Rodman's Hollow, a rare maritime shrubland. Rent bikes or a moped to circle the island's quiet roads, or charter a fishing or sailing boat from the harbor. Look for sea glass and floats — The Glass Float Project celebrates the island's beachcombing tradition.

There is more within easy reach: North Light at Sandy Point and the National Wildlife Refuge at the island's tip; Biking and mopeds — the classic way to circle the island's 10-mile length. Seasonal highlights include Block Island Race Week and summer sailing regattas (odd years, June), Fourth of July parade and fireworks over Old Harbor, Peak beach and Greenway hiking season (summer–early fall). Block Island rewards visits in every season, from green-season hiking and water days to brilliant autumn foliage and quiet, snow-dusted winters. And because Block Island sits within easy reach of Newport, Westerly & Watch Hill, Middletown, it works well as a base for wider day trips across the region.

Make a night of it

Pair your soak with an unforgettable evening

A hot tub stay in New Shoreham (Block Island) isn't just about the soak — it's about what you do before you slip in. These pairings turn an ordinary night into a story you'll repeat.

01.

Mohegan Bluffs hike and a jacuzzi soak

Walk down the 150-foot stairway to the beach below the Southeast Lighthouse, breathe in the salt air, and climb back up to your room for a hot jacuzzi soak while ocean views fill your window.

02.

Biking the Greenway and a post-ride soaking tub

Pedal the conservation trails through the island's south end — rolling moors, wildflowers, and forest—then return for a long soak in a deep tub and a nightcap on the inn grounds.

03.

Crescent Beach swim and a relaxing whirlpool

Wade into the island's longest, swimmable east-shore beach on a warm day, then retreat to a hot tub or whirlpool to ease tired muscles and watch the sunset from your room.

04.

Old Harbor harbor day and a couples soak

Sail, kayak, or fish from the Victorian ferry village, wander the shops and restaurants, then soak as a pair in a two-person jacuzzi bath and toast the day with wine on the grounds.

For couples

Why a New Shoreham (Block Island) hot tub suite works for romance

Block Island is a couples' dream: ferry romance, walkable Victorian villages, quiet beaches, and rolling moors made for tandem biking. Many of the island's inns double as adults-only sanctuaries with daily wine hours, farm breakfasts, and fireplace-lit common rooms. Rooms with in-room jacuzzi or soaking tubs turn a salty, wind-swept day into an intimate evening. Book a spring or fall getaway to avoid summer crowds, secure a room with a tub and ocean views, and plan a sunset hike to **Mohegan Bluffs** or a harbor dinner before retreating for a long, two-person soak.

Many of the New Shoreham (Block Island) properties below offer extras on request — champagne service, rose-petal turn-down, or late check-out. Mention your occasion at booking; most front desks try to help.

When to visit

New Shoreham (Block Island)season by season

Hot tub stays read differently in February than they do in July. Here's what to expect across the year — temperatures, signature events, the local vibe, and how rates move.

Spring

Temps
45–62°F in April and May
Events
Memorial Day weekend marks the unofficial island opening; many businesses open by late May. Block Island Marathon runs in spring.
Vibe
Quiet, awakening. Trails are greening, the ferries return to full schedules, and locals reclaim the island after winter.
Rates
Lowest rates and no summer crowds — ideal for couples seeking peace and long inns stays.

Summer

Temps
70–80°F in July and August
Events
Block Island Race Week and summer sailing regattas (odd years in June), Fourth of July parade and fireworks over Old Harbor, peak beach and Greenway season.
Vibe
Lively and crowded. Ferries fill, restaurants buzz, and the village pulses with activity.

Peak rates (often 2–3x spring) and year-ahead bookings — book early or expect limited availability.

Fall

Temps
55–68°F in September and October

Block Island Marathon and fall foliage on the moors in October. Peak Greenway hiking season continues.
Vibe
Arguably the sweet spot: warm seas, thinning crowds, and golden light on the moors.

Winter

Temps
35–45°F from November through March
Events
Very few public events. Most restaurants and inns close; only a skeleton ferry schedule runs.

Windswept, quiet, and isolated — the island feels remote and unoccupied.

Tub types, explained

What's the difference between a jacuzzi, whirlpool, and soaking tub?

Jacuzzi

Technically a brand name, but used generically for any jetted tub. In hotel listings, "jacuzzi suite" almost always means a private in-room tub with built-in air or water jets. Heat is usually preset; jets are user-controlled.

Whirlpool

Functionally identical to a jacuzzi — water jets circulate heated water for a massage effect. The term is more common at Marriott, Hilton, and Wyndham brands. Most "whirlpool suites" hold two adults comfortably.

Soaking tub

Deeper than a standard bathtub, usually 18–22 inches, but with no jets. Common in boutique and luxury hotels — quieter, more spa-like, and better for a long hot soak than the jet-driven hum of a jacuzzi.

Hot tub

In strict use, a standalone heated tub holding 100°F+ water. In hotel marketing, often used interchangeably with jacuzzi or whirlpool. A genuine in-room "hot tub" with full thermostat control is rare outside cabin-style resorts.

Every listing on this page specifies which type you'll find in the room. We list only properties with the tub in your room — not in a shared pool area or the lobby spa.

Common questions

Frequently asked questions

How do I get to Block Island without a car?

Ferry is the primary way. From Point Judith (Galilee) in Narragansett, the traditional ferry takes 55 minutes; the high-speed ferry is 30 minutes. Seasonal ferries also depart from Newport, RI and New London, CT. Small planes fly into Block Island State Airport from Westerly and beyond. Once on the island, rent a bike, moped, or taxi — most visitors skip cars entirely.

What's the best time to visit Block Island?

Spring (May) and fall (September–October) offer the sweetest balance: mild weather, fewer crowds, and lower rates. Summer is peak but fully booked a year ahead. Winter is quiet and very affordable, but many inns and restaurants close, and the ferry schedule thins.

Do all the hotels have in-room hot tubs or jacuzzis?

Not all rooms at each inn feature in-room tubs. The Blue Dory Inn, The 1661 Resort, and The Sullivan House have select rooms with soaking or jacuzzi tubs. Always confirm your room type when booking, as availability varies by season and room category.

For Couples What's the best Block Island experience for us?

Book a spring or fall weekend in an adults-only or quieter inn with a jacuzzi or soaking tub. Hike **Mohegan Bluffs** at sunset, have dinner in Old Harbor, and return to a two-person soak. Add a complimentary wine hour on the grounds (many inns offer them) and you have a perfect island escape.

For First-time visitor (car-free) Can I really do Block Island without a car?

Absolutely. Ferry to Old Harbor, walk to your inn, rent a bike or moped on arrival, and explore the island's loop roads and trails. Old Harbor itself is walkable — shops, restaurants, and Crescent Beach are a short ride away. Many inns offer complimentary bikes and taxi services.

For Beach lovers Where should I stay for easy beach access?

Book a room near **Crescent Beach** along Corn Neck Road (like Avonlea or The Sullivan House) or on Dodge Street in Old Harbor (like Block Island Beach House). Both put you a walk or short bike ride from swimming, and most inns include free beach towels and water-sports gear.

Why trust us

Hand-verified. No AI filler.

Every hotel on this page has been personally verified to have a private, in-room hot tub or jacuzzi — not a shared pool tub, not a bathroom soaker, not a spa amenity you have to book. We cross-check three sources for every listing: the hotel's own room photos and descriptions, recent guest reviews on TripAdvisor and Google, and direct confirmation from the hotel where unclear. We don't take payment for placement, and we don't generate listings with AI. If a hotel's tub status changes or a property closes, the page updates the next time we re-verify the city (Dothan was last checked May 2026).
