Matunuck Hotels, South Kingstown

"My family booked a 2 night stay here last minute in March to have an anticipated rainy beach day by their indoor poor during a road trip. The website (still, April 2026) lists a pool as an amenity. Expedia also lists that the property has a pool. However they have NOT had a working pool in some time. We arrived in the evening so agreed to stay the first night but wanted to cancel the second day/night within the allowable time but were told by the hotel only Expedia could initiate our cancellation, which hotel manager would have to approve. The manager would not then and has not since responded to the request for cancellation and hotel has kept our payment - against the stated policy. Staff even mentioned knowing the website incorrectly lists a pool though thought it’s not a currently an amenity. Pros: front desk staff are really nice. Rooms are dated but clean and comfortable. It’s directly across from the beach."

"Headliner is, worth the money adding you get what you pay for. Friendly staff, clean, worth the price. Flip side : definitely dated, grounds were a bit in disrepair, on the bed had a sheet heavier sheet and no blanket? bed and pillows were a bit stiff, van was in bad need of shocks and was concerned on the way back, if it was full and would we have to wait another 45 minutes to go back? Overall, B- and would stay there again."

"Lovely newish hotel. Nice coastal decor, clean, restaurant and place to pick up snacks. There a nice room with a fireplace to gather, a larger room with a TV and seating and a pool is being built for future use. Convenient to several breweries -Tap Root is a 4 min. drive. 10 min to Newport downtown. Grocery store, Walgreens and a few quick bite options all within a few minutes."

"Except for the hallway, the room was very quiet. They were busy and many kids were in town, but unless the kids were running loudly past the door, we only heard them for the moment they passed by. All the noise was gone after 8pm. The room was clean and updated. It’s a short distance to the heart of Newport. We will stay here again. We are bimonthly visitors to the island, and have stayed in quite a few different hotels on Aquidneck Island. This is now one of our top two favorite combinations of “best stay for your dollar”. "
