Wequassett Resort and Golf Club

In general, I love staying at I Prefer hotels, and specifically seek them out because of the benefits. I recently stayed at Inn By The Sea, and they offered me all the I Prefer benefits, and we had a great stay. This was not the case with Wequassett Resort & Golf Club. When I checked into Wequassett Resort & Golf Club, I explained I was an I Prefer Member and requested a complimentary upgrade. The customer service manager coldly told me this wasn’t a benefit. At that point, I showed him the I Prefer website to prove it was a benefit and told him I stayed at Inn By The Sea just last week, and they honored it. At that point, he told me no upgrades were available. I checked the hotel website after, and plenty of upgraded rooms looked still available. It was disappointing. They also charged me for the regular rate even though I used 30,000 IPrefer points. I called and complained, and they told me they would fix it. On April 22nd, I got emailed another copy of the bill, and they STILL didn’t fix it. The room rate should’ve been $347.00 (not $413.00 like their receipt says) as I booked through and used I prefer points. It’s not the small amount of money; it’s the principle of not accurately charging a customer. Finally, we were in room 49, and it looked like a motel room, not anything like the luxurious rooms stayed at other I Prefer properties that we’ve stayed at. Additionally, the shower pressure was low, and water wouldn’t get hot. I think this hotel is very overrated. They have a beautiful pool by the beach (but that’s not open during most of the year), and the restaurant is good with beautiful views. We went to the Easter Brunch there, and it was lovely. However, this doesn’t make up for the dated rooms, especially bad customer service, not extending I Prefer benefits (even though it’s technically an I Prefer hotel), and lack of hot water.

Unfortunately our stay was not as good as it could be. We were moved to another room because of an issue with the power, but the new room lacked a telephone, an outlet for the coffee machine, had only one sink and one day did not have hot water. So we felt the value was not worth it.

We attended a wedding at this resort in early April. While the weather was.....April, the wedding events were wonderful. The staff was engaging and very professional. The food was spectacular. We did not stay at the resort, but by all appearances, it would be fantastic. Highly recommend it and many, many levels above other Cape venues and resorts.

The outward appearance is definitely Cape Cod and very quaint and beautiful. We stayed in “Sweat Pea” which was a nice unit but the bathroom was very dated and needs updating.

We had a great stay. Grounds are beautiful, customer service was excellent.

While the location is fabulous and the weekend was filled with holiday magic, the cleanliness of the room was disappointing including stains on the rugs and the towels were like sand paper. Not as magnificent as it used to be! Hopefully some updating is planned!
