The Break

Narragansett, Rhode Island is a very traditional town, but in the Break it’s got its very first boutique hotel. The name is a reference to the town’s status as a surf spot, and this hotel’s rooms eschew New England nautical clichés in favor of mid-century surf-shack playfulness. They’re plenty spacious, and come with all the comforts, from rain showers to gas fireplaces, and many have balconies. There’s a pool and even a small spa, and the surf, of course, is just a few blocks away — and Chair 5, the hotel’s bistro-style restaurant awaits, as does its indoor-outdoor rooftop lounge.
