A holiday on Cape Cod is a quintessential New England vacation that deserves much longer than a single weekend. From sipping wine in Martha’s Vineyard and exploring Nantucket, to kicking back in P-town’s dive bars, the Cape’s quaint villages, fresh seafood, and supreme relaxation could keep you entranced for weeks at a time. You’ll have no qualms about hanging around this hook-shaped peninsula when you stay at one of the best beach hotels in Cape Cod – all bookable with Culture Trip.

Chatham Bars Inn, for a whale of a time

The ultimate experience on the Cape awaits at Chatham Bars Inn, one of the best beach hotels in the area. Their private beach is spectacular, though you’ll be much too busy sampling farm-to-table food on their farm, playing croquet on a full-size court, and sailing out into the bay on customized whale watching and lobstering tours. You’ll surprise yourself with just how easily you’re swayed out of your spa suite’s private sauna to discover the many other serene spots of the resort.

Bayside Resort Hotel, for keeping the kids busy

You have permission to come aboard a great family holiday at Bayside Resort Hotel. A bay view room with a sundeck has a little extra space for your wee ones to play. Not that you’d necessarily need it; the indoor pool, outdoor pool, and family fun center will give them an entertaining space to burn off some energy. Perhaps book a whirlpool suite instead so mom and dad can loosen up as well.

Wequassett Resort and Golf Club, for parent paradise

Waterfront views spoil you at The Masthead Resort, no matter your budget. Guest rooms, suites, and private cottages all have unparalleled opportunities to gaze at the wide-open stretch of private Provincetown Beach. It’s authentic Cape Cod at its finest: relaxed and rewarding in equal measure. Let the sea breeze fill your lungs with a short walk to Pilgrims’ First Landing Park where you can hike the rocky trail of the Provincetown Causeway all the way to the Wood End Lighthouse.

The Mansion at Ocean Edge, for a fairway to relax

Ellis Landing Beach is 1mi (2km) from The Mansion at Oceans Edge – or around two par fives and a three-putt if you don’t use the imperial system. This resort and golf club has a private 18-hole course designed by Nicklaus and ready for your three-wood. Stay on the Mansion ground if you’re planning on playing 36, but if golf is one activity on your holiday list, the three-bedroom waterfront residence is one of the best beach hotels in Cape Cod you could choose.

Crowne Pointe Historic Inn & Spa, for first-rate freebies

You’re welcome to unwind for hours in the spa’s mineral tub, steam room, and Himalayan salt sauna for hours – all without spending a dime.

There’s nowhere quite like Provincetown and no better way to loosen up quite like a stay in the Seaglass Inn & Spa. Your west P-town room has plenty of pillows to cuddle up with when you’re not snuggling by the fire with a special friend. You’ll be surrounded by four acres of lush gardens. This spa retreat is close enough to the beach and town to feel remote yet accessible when you’re longing for company.

InnSeason Resorts Captain's Quarters, for a ship-shape stay

Say ahoy to a Cape Cod holiday fit for an admiral at the InnSeason Resorts. Warm yourself by the fireplace in your suite after a day spent navigating the waves of Falmouth Heights Town Beach. The hot tub or whirlpool in your room is just as cozy with no chance of getting lost at sea – unless you bring a bottle of sherry in with you.
