Prince of Whales

Stayed here for two nights and enjoyed quiet cozy getaway. Minutes from Provincetown and beaches.

Clean, cute and comfortable. Checked all my boxes. Had all the amenities! Great price for autumn on the cape.

The cottage is very small but very efficient, has everything for a few-day comfortable stay. We arrived on a very cold day and were lucky to see the attendant outside who promptly delivered an additional heater that turned an ice castle into a toasty hut. Thank you caretakers!

Cutest little cottage Had a blissful stay at Prince of Whales cottages. We stayed in a cottage with a queen bed and it was the perfect space for two people. Plenty of under bed storage to stow extra luggage out of the way and a cute little kitchenette ready to be used. The bathroom was a little tight but it did the job. We stayed in cottage 1 and the stand up shower knob is backwards (hot is cold, and cold is hot) took a bit to figure out why the water wasn't getting hot but once we figured it out it was good to go. Would 1000% stay again, especially during the off season. Very peaceful and had a beautiful view of the starry sky.

What we liked - The cottage was very clean, the bed was comfortable, and the kitchenette was well equipped. The private outdoor deck was beautiful. There is a restaurant that serves dinner on site, where the food and service were very good. What we didn't like - The bathroom (in the studio unit) was a bit small. We're not sure why they slopped the ceiling downward in there. But the biggest issue was with the contactless service. It was a challenge. We did not receive our check-in information by our check-in date. I called the cottages and was told we would get a call back by noon. we did not. I called again at 2 pm (by the way check-in time is at 4 pm). I was told my credit card for the second payment did not go through (not sure why, as it has a substantial credit line). Now wouldn't you think they would have reached out to us on their own when they had trouble with the payment, I guess they didn't think so. Anyway, they tried again and lo and behold the payment went through and we received our check-in information. Even though we had our issues with check-in I would still recommend the Price of Whales cottages.

When there was an apparent issue with my payment - I contacted the property 3 times by phone & emailed twice. I finally heard back with a resolution FOUR hours before my stay. I live 6 hours away - I was already driving down without knowing if I even had a place to stay. They’re nearly impossible to get a hold of. It’s essentially a glorified shed that was turned into a tiny home. I’ve stayed here twice now & unfortunately will not be again. I’ve rented an entire house for my next stay for the same price as this cottage. It’s unfortunate because staying here was becoming a little tradition. I also found a cockroach in the bathroom on my last day, emailed the company & never heard anything back. While I understand outside bugs can come in - would’ve been nice to hear back. Ultimately it’s the lack of communication that has pushed me in a different direction for the future over anything else.
