Hotels near Barnstable Municipal Airport - HYA, Hyannis

This area is perfect for touristy groups who want to be near many mini-golf attractions and shops. There are numerous gift shops as well as several consingment/thrift shops. We highly recommend the Skipper for chowder and the Yarmouth House for their three courses sunset dinners (served 3 - 5:45pm).

Having stayed in several places in Cape Cod during four visits to the area, I wouldn't stay in Hyannis again. We stayed to be near the ferries to Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket. It doesn't have the charm of other villages and towns nearby. There are a few good shops though but excellent accommodation is hard to find there.

Barnstable is on the bay side of the Cape and is almost midway down the Cape so perfect for day trips to the rest of the Cape or Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket. There is also a whale watch trip right at Millway harbor nearby. Lots of good shopping and restaurants nearby.

Centrally located close to beaches and Cape Cod style "city-life". (Hyannis). DO NOT MISS breakfast at the Keltic Kitchen...yes if there's a line...it's WELL worth the wait. Check out the Pirate Museum, (REAL pirate treasure). West Yarmouth is a pleasure with many activities for young and old year-round. Fresh cranberries right off the bog in the Fall are a treat not found often. Don't miss the Fall cranberry festivals either!

We were very excited about staying with our 3 children. We booked a suite, but when booking we were not informed that half the water park was closed. We were extremely disappointed. As it was a non refundable purchase. Also unaware of the construction going on. We were so confused on how to get to the other part of the resort. We were walking through parts of the hallways with work being done. We were told we couldn't. When asked for help on how to get to our room the gentlemen couldn't direct us . We did enjoy the outside pool. The rooms were clean, the shower had nice hot water. We visited the restaurant and the food was really good. Maybe when renovations are over will have a better experience.

We had a great week photographing birds, beaches, lighthouses, and landscapes. We visited Provincetown to Falmouth and towns in between. We even ventured out to Rhode Is. and Connecticut from our centrally located rental home. Although we were there in the slow season, we were able to find some wonderful restaurants serving delicious food! We were fortunate enough to see many Ospreys that had recently returned to the area to breed. We were amazed at how pristine everyone’s property was and how well maintained their homes were!
