My husband and I just got back from an absolutely wonderful time on the Eastern shoreThe Garden and Sea Inn is located just a few miles from Chincoteague and Wallops Island where we both enjoyed great food, nice shopping and a very educational adventure to the NASA welcome center. What we found to be our favorite thing was the beautiful room and a wonderful breakfast every morning. The innkeepers were so efficient and always there if you needed anything, their kindness was 5 star. We plan to return very soonI personally highly recommend them to my friends. Oh and the pets welcome is fantastic. Lisa

My other half had never been to a bed & breakfast before, and I wanted him to be able to relax for his birthday. I was looking and hoping for the perfect place to make that happen, and thankfully enough I found it here! Grace was so welcoming and wonderful! It was cozy and comfortable, and the food was incredible! Everything I was looking for was provided ❤️ It was perfect!Rooms: The room was clean and cozy! I loved the feel and decorations, and the jacuzzi tub was perfect! The shower was incredible, and the hot water was on point!Nearby activities: There’s so so much within 20-30 minutes. It’s a great location!Food & drinks: Grace made great recommendations to Bordeleau Vineyard, Don’s Restaurant, and Maurice’s. Everything was on point, especially her breakfast!Noteworthy details: Grace also makes her own soap and bath bombs with a wide variety of scents! You know we had to get some of those ?

This B&B was AWESOME! Our host, Grace, was so friendly and generous; she made our trip fun and we loved our conversations! We stayed in the main house, in the Chardonnay room. The bed was more comfortable than our own at home!! The bathroom was HUGE with a beautiful jetted tub! Even though the room was on the first floor, at the front of the house, it was peaceful and I didn’t hear any road noise. Breakfast was amazing!! Always with fruit, a sweet, some juice, a main course and your choice of beverage (mine was coffee). Grace always had snacks, coffee and water available 24/7. There’s lots of cool antique shopping nearby and the beach at Ocean City, MD is a quick drive too! The grounds are beautiful with lots of seating inside and out. If you are on the Eastern Shore of Virginia, you NEED to include this in your stop!Highly recommended!!

Couldn't stay in the room I booked because the AC broke down so they put me in another room for 2 nights and then moved me to another room after that (first room was on the second floor and I have issues with stairs). Grace and Jeannie are very sweet ladies and would be willing to talk about many different topics.Rooms: Very quaint and period authentic items through out the homes.Nearby activities: Nearby Chincoteague without having to pay the high rates.

My only regret is not staying longer! My partner and I highly enjoyed our stay. The room had everything we needed, the property was beautiful and there was plenty of room for our dog to roam around. No one else was there at the time, so we had a private porch and entire house to ourselves! Grace was great and super accommodating. She gave great recommendations on local restaurants and activities. Breakfast was delicious and Grace even went a few towns over just to get vegan cheese for our breakfast omelette! We will definitely be back.

We really enjoyed our weekend stay. It's obvious that Grace & Jeanie care about their guests and make everyone feel welcome. We enjoyed hearing about the history of the home and got great local recommendations.Rooms: Our room was nice, clean, and private.Nearby activities: It was close enough to restaurants, grocery store, Chincoteague, and other tourist attractions, but far enough from summer weekend crowds.Food & drinks: Breakfast was delicious and coffee is available all day

This place was amazing. This was our first trip to Chincoteague and Assateague and this place was a perfect location for our home base. We stayed in the Champagne room where we had the whole second floor to ourselves. Very quiet. We were treated every morning to a delightful breakfast cooked by Grace, our gracious host. We will definitely look forward to staying hear on our next trip.

This was our second time staying at the Inn. We stayed for a week and it was the perfect location for a romantic get away. My wife and I have had a hectic summer and desperately needed a location that provided a "put the brakes on" atmosphere. We took advantage of the front porch to read before breakfast. Then we crashed in our room for a nap after breakfast. The pool offered a place to cool off and take another nap. ( sounds like all we did was nap) The Inn is located very close to Chincoteague and Assateague so we took advantage of these locations to shop and enjoy the beaches.I can't say enough about the Inn keepers Jeanie and Grace. How they manage to keep up the Inn and entertain their guests is beyond me. Every morning we ate a freshly prepared breakfast, had our coffee mugs filled and solved all of the worlds issues before deciding on what we are going to do with our time. If you're looking for a place that just screams RELAX, The Garden and Sea Inn is the place to visit!!

I spent my birthday weekend at this lovely Inn. As soon as I stepped on the property, it felt like home. From the Victorian architecture to the lovely garden areas I felt like I discovered new treasures wherever I looked. The room was just perfect and I really enjoyed the jacuzzi tub and the comfortable bed with the pretty linens. I swam in the refreshing pool and enjoyed one evening sitting in the screened in gazebo. Home made breakfasts and muffins were so good! The very best thing about my stay were the hosts. Grace and Jeanne couldn't have been more accommodating. I enjoyed this Inn so much, I never left the property. I will be back ❤️

Came as a single traveler and it was perfect. The breakfast and pastries were 10/10. The atmosphere of the garden was so relaxing and the beach is only 25min away. It was a great location to do many activities and MD is only a few minutes away as well. Plenty of parking and its gated. Will definitely come back and recommend to others! Grace was very kind and great at recommending places to eat and visit.Nearby activities: Kayaking/ Beach/ Antique Shopping/ Boat Tours

A fun getaway close enough to Chincoteague to enjoy the ocean. A nice old Victorian, the main building has a long history, and the current owners are making improvements as they go. The road can be a bit noisy at night. There are also a couple of other more modern structures - the owners share in the Yellow House, and the Garden House has a game room and allows pets. A small pool is nearby, and a couple of attractive seating areas on the property. Breakfast is ample, and Grace was willing to accommodate a gluten-free diet. There was also a snack / cookie table and some free drinks.

Adorable! My husband and I stayed here this weekend for a getaway, and we were in the Chablis Suite. I don't think the pictures do it justice, it was SO spacious, and the bathroom felt almost regal with the dual pedestal vanities. I also have a ton of toiletries so the table between the sinks, but ALSO the large space on the sides of the tub were excellent to spread out my belongings. Owner(s) were very sweet to talk with and breakfast each morning was delicious. It was a really quick drive into Chincoteague/Assateague (20ish min usually), which is where we did all of our exploring. I also got a quick dip in the pool which was excellent with the heat. Loved staying here versus a hotel because it allowed us to balance being a tourist with feeling romantic.
