Victorian charm on Block Island

Perched atop a hill just above town, the Atlantic Inn tru­ly offers the best of loca­tions: boast­ing both peace­ful­ness and prox­im­i­ty. While the major­i­ty of shops, restau­rants and fer­ries are just a short 7 minute stroll away, the six acre prop­er­ty offers qui­et sur­round­ings of rolling lawns and care­ful­ly tend­ed gar­dens. The lofty loca­tion also offers stun­ning water views and fresh ocean breezes. 

These attrib­ut­es have made the Atlantic Inn a pop­u­lar haven since its doors first opened in 1879. The prop­er­ty has served as an Inn or a board­ing house ever since; wel­com­ing gen­er­a­tions of guests to take in breath­tak­ing views from the icon­ic veran­dah, and enjoy the sights and sounds of a clas­sic Block Island Summer.

That Atlantic wel­comes guests of all ages; and young ones espe­cial­ly enjoy the huge lawn, cro­quet court, horse­shoe pit and easy dis­tance to the local Ani­mal Farm.

Kick back and relax...

… on our veran­da and lawn! Sum­mer is a mag­i­cal time at the Atlantic Inn. Relax on the lawn to view a beau­ti­ful sun­set. Watch the boats enter­ing and leav­ing Old Har­bor. Enjoy some won­der­ful drinks, appe­tiz­ers or deserts. And by all means indulge in our won­der­ful Tapas — hot and cold.

Unwind and choose from our exten­sive menu of hot and cold tapas, per­fect bites to share amongst friends; all while expe­ri­enc­ing one of the best sun­set ocean views on Block Island.

Our Rooms

Each of the Atlantic Inn’s 21 rooms reflect the Vic­to­ri­an spir­it of the cir­ca 1879 Build­ing, and are indi­vid­u­al­ly dec­o­rat­ed with antiques, flo­ral fab­rics and wall­cov­er­ings. All accom­mo­da­tions are locat­ed on the sec­ond and third floors of our build­ing; and are acces­si­ble by stairs only. Each room is cozy and wel­com­ing, has a pri­vate bath and is ful­ly heat­ed. None of the rooms in the main house have tele­vi­sion or air con­di­tion­ing. They do have fans, and we are for­tu­nate to be on top of a hill that offers plen­ti­ful ocean breezes.

Look­ing for more space than a tra­di­tion­al hotel room? Our Cot­tage Suite is locat­ed direct­ly behind our main build­ing and pro­vides more space for your par­ty. This com­fort­able, open stu­dio is locat­ed on the first floor and fea­tures a Kitch­enette (stove­top but no oven, microwave, toast­er, cof­fee mak­er, and fridge), full bath, and a sun­ny open lay­out with a King Sized Bed and a Dou­ble Pull­out Sofa.
