It’s a beautiful location, overall the service and staff was very nice, but the rooms are way too small for the price tag. There is no fridge for cold water, no TV in the room, the hallways smelled like curry, also if you need anything you have to go down to the lobby to get it yourself. For that price tag way overpriced. Also view is great but everyone can see into your room, you can’t enjoy the view and have privacy.

Dissapointing

Bed is super soft, and my handicap husband and I were given an upstairs room. He had a hard time on the stairs. No pets allowed with no air conditioning, so we slept with the windows open. Second floor, we didn’t think anything of it, Until our second night I woke up to a cat walking across my legs in bed. Staff said it was the neighbors cat, but gave us no warning that a cat could get into our room (glad my husband did not have an allergic reaction.) View and locations is amazing, this property is just not for us, I would not visit it again.
View from the bay.
The gorgeous bed.

It was beautiful, but definitely made for more of just couples and not families despite having two rooms. My kids and I are trying to take a shower at the same time and the hot water ran out very quickly. There were spiders in the rooms, although not much and aside from that, it was very, very clean. Parking was very annoying. There’s only four spaces up at the front and then at the rest is street parking. It is beautiful and peaceful, but do not recommend it for families.

Beautiful Property, But Disappointing Hospitality The location and setting of Seven Gables Inn are undeniably stunning—serene ocean views, peaceful surroundings, and a beautifully maintained Victorian-style property that feels like a step back in time. The charm of the building and attention to historical detail are truly impressive. However, our experience with the staff left a lot to be desired. Over the course of our three-day stay, every interaction with the front desk was cold and unwelcoming. None of the receptionists greeted us with a smile or made any effort to be friendly or accommodating. It was especially disheartening considering the high price point and the fact that this is a hospitality business. A particularly upsetting incident occurred when I cut my foot on a sharp edge of a Victorian side table in the lobby. It was bleeding quite a bit, and when I asked for help, the receptionist simply told me they didn’t have any band-aids—offering no concern or assistance. Upon checkout, we were asked to drop our keys without even a simple thank-you or goodbye. For a boutique inn that markets itself on charm and service, this level of disengagement was disappointing. While we were aware there wouldn’t be daily housekeeping, the lack of warmth or effort from the staff throughout our stay made the experience feel impersonal and uninviting. Unfortunately, I’d rate the service experience below a 1.
