    A hidden gem

    May 28, 2013

    We wanted to stay in Chincoteague but waited too late and ended up staying here instead. It's quite close to Chincoteague abut after visiting the island I think it was for the best. The island is quite busy and crowded and G&S is quiet and spacious. we stayed in a suite (3 of us) and it was very comfortable. It was in a separate building behind the inn and looked out into a field of wheat. The furnishings are top notch with a gas fireplace at the foot of the king sized bed and a tub with jets in the bathroom. Breakfast was amazing. I was expecting something simple but it was a treat, more of a desert that the hosts had adapted from a German recipe (the host are from Germany). They Inn is even dog friendly. If I ever go back to Chincoteague I'd stay here rather than trying to stay on the island. The hosts are amazingly gracious and very thorough in caring for their guests.

    An enjoyable weekend

    May 23, 2013

    This was my first B&B and thoroughly enjoyed myself. The room we had was awesome. The bed is to die for (haven't slept that well in a long time) and the jacuzzi tub was heavenly. Breakfast was incredible and the host and other guests made for some really good conversation. I would definitely return to this place again.

    Perfect Honeymoon Get Away

    May 21, 2013

    Our stay at the Garden and the Sean Inn was exactly what we were looking for. We did not book a real honeymoon yet and just wanted a few days to get away together after our wedding. From our beautiful room (the Chablis Suite) to Dorothee's AWESOME breakfasts, to the great recommendations we were given for things to do (with our dog) while there, the experience was just great. I would highly recommend a stay at the Garden and the Sea Inn, as we certainly hope to return in the near future.

    Nice place

    May 17, 2013

    The Sandpiper room was very beautiful and clean. The innkeepers were very fast to help when our bathroom electricity went out. The breakfast was a table of homemade yogurt, fruit, bran cereal, etc..which was the same both mornings. The first morning was maple banana french toast which was good. The second morning was eggs benedict with salmon and asparagus. I was less than thrilled with the offerings at breakfast especially the second morning. I am a very picky eater but I assumed that breakfast wouldn't be an issue. I will say that they offered to give me something else after they saw I didn't eat, but by that time I was over it. I blame myself for not saying something immediately b/c I am sure they would have fixed me something else. I have only stayed in one other B&B and just expected there to be a wide variety to choose from. The house is close enough to the highway that you can see it and it is audible outside but not inside. The grounds were nice but needed much work--which I think they were trying to start on when we left. The rooms were the nicest thing with awesome decorations and a cool electric fireplace that I loved..also the enclosed side porch was awesome..

    A Wonderful Evening Experience

    May 10, 2013

    My wife and I recently spent a wonderful evening at the Inn. Dorothee and Tom Renn provide a quiet Victorian respite located a short distance from the main highway. However it felt as if we had traveled to a spot of gentle elegance. Their hospitality made us feel as if we were part of a family. Oh, and the breakfast is outstanding.

    Amazing stay!

    May 09, 2013

    Never having stayed at a Bed and Breakfast before, I wasn't sure what to expect. The room my wife and I selected was very cozy with a spacious bed. The room was clean and actually cleaned daily by maids. They didn't just come in and empty the trash, they vacuumed and mopped daily. For breakfast I was expecting eggs and bacon or pancakes almost every day. I was pleasantly surprised that our hostess actually made different meals every morning. They had a table set up with the usual fruit, coffee, and such, but each morning we had a newly cooked meal that looked as if a professional chef had made it specially for us. My wife and I did decide to leave a day early but that had nothing to do with our stay. We would not hesitate to go back, and hope to have time to go this fall.
