That perfect vacation getaway you’ve been seeking? You’ll find it at the waterfront. Enjoy a little pampering, and a great location, too, at the Salem Waterfront Hotel & Suites on historic Pickering Wharf. Spacious suites, a heated indoor pool, a fitness center and a marina, as well as an award-winning restaurant, make this hotel a perfect hub from which to launch your exploration of Salem and the beautiful North Shore area. From witch and pirate attractions to world-class art museums and historic homes like the House of the Seven Gables, Salem has it all. Walk the heritage trail, stroll out to a lighthouse, take a harbor cruise or dine in a restaurant with the freshest seafood around. Ask about packages for families, foodies – and romantics!

Set in a classic and historic New England town, the Inn at Hastings Park provides the perfect combination of exceptional lodging options and memorable culinary experiences. Stay in the lovingly restored Inn’s Main House, built in 1888, or in a barn suite with a fireplace, deep soaking tub and sunlight-filled reading nook. Dine on fresh, regional fare at the Town Meeting Bistro or in a secluded Culinary Garden surrounded by sheltering trees. Arrange for a massage in award winning Bella Sante, private bonfire or immersive cooking class. Take one of the inn’s bikes for a scenic ride on the rail trail, walk down to the Battle Green where the Revolution began, or let the Inn arrange for a historical, birdwatching or farm tour. Complimentary continental breakfast is served each morning.

Romantic, serene, warmly inviting: Staying at the historic Harbor Light Inn is an experience not to be missed. Start your day in the dining room (or, in season, at a garden table) enjoying your complimentary breakfast buffet. Stroll down to Marblehead, MA’s shops, galleries, restaurants and historic homes. Come back for sweet treats, coffee and tea in the dining room, then a dip in the outdoor pool or a relaxing afternoon by your room’s fireplace or in its two-person jetted tub. In-room individual and couple’s massages can also be arranged. Book a sailing excursion, or take a picnic out to Fort Sewall overlooking the harbor. Drive over to Salem, MA to visit its many museums and attractions. Come back for bar bites and wine at the inn’s tavern.
