Bed & Breakfasts are a charming way to explore Cape Cod, but if you want something high-end and dazzling, a vacation you’ll never forget, try the Wequassett Inn Resort and Golf Club in Chatham. Set on the gentle curve of Cape Cod’s Pleasant Bay, this 22-acre resort sets the standard for accommodations, service and food.

There are 104 guest rooms at Wequassett, but ask for one of the two Pleasant Bay Suites ($1,365 a night during the summer). They provide sensational views of Pleasant Bay and the Atlantic Ocean. You also get a bedroom with a king-size bed, a living room with a fireplace and a large-screen TV, an oversized tub in the bathroom, and a private elevated deck. If you’d like a room with an outdoor fireplace, ask about the Premiere Waterfront rooms ($870 in the summer).

The sense of seclusion and solitude makes Wequassett a great place to unwind, but the resort is also the right choice for those who prefer a more active vacation. Wequassett is now affiliated with the Cape Cod National Golf Club. They also offer tennis, croquette, bocce, a new fitness center and a variety of water sports. And the resort’s signature restaurant, 28 Atlantic, receives rave reviews — Zagat recently gave it the highest rating for any restaurant on the Cape.

So if you’re wondering how to make your Cape crusade more memorable this summer, we say, “Splurge!”
