Staying in Eastham

Eastham sits on Cape Cod, known for its ocean and bay beaches, the Cape Cod National Seashore and the Salt Pond Visitor Center, with outdoor activities such as swimming, hiking and cycling. The Cape Cod Rail Trail passes through town, and historic sites include the 1644 First Encounter Monument and the Eastham Windmill.

Distances to the centre range from 0.7 km to 5.7 km.

The mix suits couples, families and groups who prefer a house-style stay with kitchens and laundry facilities. Couples get fireplaces, patios and sea views at places like Beaches n' Sunsets and Town Cove Oyster House; families get gardens, pools and space at Herring Brook and Summer Daydream. Business travellers have desks, internet access and wifi at several properties. For a short break, the closest to the centre are Perfect Relaxation Spot 5 min to Beach, Summer Daydream and Lighthouse Lodge.
