The Delano Homestead Bed and Breakfast is located in the historic town center of beautiful Fairhaven, MA. The Homestead is within a short stroll of 5 village restaurants, a bike path, a beach, parks, and the working, Fairhaven waterfront. It are also within just minutes of Historic New Bedford, The Whaling Museum, the Martha's Vineyard Fast Ferry, the New Bedford Zoo, several local beaches, and the New Bedford Regional Airport. It is also within 25 minutes of Newport, RI, Cape Cod, Horseneck Beach in westport, and Providence, RI. And within 50 minutes of TF Green (Providence) Airport, Boston, and Logan Airport. The Delano Homestead is a classic example of transitional Federal/ Greek Revival architecture, with wide doorways, sweeping staircases, 12-foot ceilings, wide-pine floors, and huge original windows. Yet, the home is comfortable and welcoming. Finally, this property, much as it is now, was the homestead for FDR's mother's family and the president spent many days here during his childhood and also visited when president. Experience the History of New England and the South Coast Region while you rest in comfort.

Delano Homestead is in a beautiful, historic home, has great service, and is very reasonably priced. We were in town for just one night for a wedding and wanted a quiet place to stay, and this was perfect. Paul and Heidi are both incredibly nice and accommodating and seemed perfectly prepared to entertain if the need arose, but were amazing at simply allowing us to move and make ourselves at home for a night. The breakfast spread has a huge variety and the kitchen is open if you’d like to make eggs or something heartier than cereal, bagels, yogurt, fruit, etc. For us, the low maintenance aspect of Delano, the kind hosts, and the amazing bed were just what we were looking for.

This is my favorite b&b of the half dozen or so I've stayed in throughout New England. It's like staying at your wealthy relative's place while they're gone for the weekend - luxurious but still homey. Some b&bs can be stifling or on the cluttered/overdone side of "country chic" but this place achieves effortless casual elegance. The jacuzzi jets in the tub were a great unexpected bonus!
