The Break
Retro-chic surf boutique. Think mid-century beach house meets elevated coastal inn — bold color, locally commissioned art, heated floors, and a rooftop bar that actually delivers on the view.

Why It Matters
Narragansett's first and only boutique hotel, filling a genuine gap in a town historically dominated by seasonal rentals and chain motels. The design is deliberately non-generic: local artists created the commissioned surf paintings, fish-rubbing prints hang throughout, and the concrete bar at Chair 5 was poured by local craftsmen.
The Break is Narragansett's first boutique hotel — a 16-room property that trades New England nautical clichés for mid-century surf-shack cool. Turquoise color schemes, retro coastal artwork, and bold textiles channel late-1960s Rhode Island surf culture (specifically local legend Peter Pan, who put Narragansett on the surf map). Gas fireplaces are in every room, the outdoor saltwater pool runs year-round at a toasty 92°F, and the fourth-floor Chair 5 restaurant sits atop it all with ocean views and craft cocktails.
Where You'll Stay
4 room types available
Ocean Deluxe King With Balcony
A step down in size from the suite but still a proper room. King bed with custom padded headboard, gas fireplace, writing desk, and club chair seating area. Private balcony with ocean view. Rain-head shower, heated floors, and the standard kit of Keurig, mini-fridge, and room safe.
King
Ocean Suite With Balcony
The flagship room type. A separate living room with gas fireplace, queen sleeper sofa, club chairs, two 65" Apple smart TVs, refrigerator, and coffee table opens onto a private balcony with ocean views. The bedroom has a plush king with custom padded headboard and writing desk. Bath features a rain-head shower, luxurious robes, and heated floors.
King + Queen Sleeper SofaSunset King Room
The entry-level room. No balcony, but still has a gas fireplace, sunset views, seating area, and the full amenity set. Heated bathroom floors and a rain-head shower keep the comfort level high. Good value for a solo traveler or couple who plans to spend days outdoors.
KingSunset King With Balcony
Faces west for sunset views rather than the ocean surf side. Private balcony, king bed, gas fireplace, and the same solid amenity package — Keurig, mini-fridge, rain shower, 65" Apple TV, room safe. A solid choice if sunset over the coast beats morning ocean light.
