Planning a trip to the Bay State? I’ve spent a lot of time exploring Massachusetts while visiting family, and I’ve come to love how it blends coastal elegance, colonial charm, and modern comfort all in one place. These hotels & resorts in Massachusetts really showcase that mix. Since I’m always drawn to the ocean, I usually found myself booking a getaway on the Cape—and I still dream about off-season stays on Martha's Vineyard or Nantucket when the crowds clear out and the prices drop. But honestly, there’s just as much to fall in love with in the Berkshires, in Boston, and in those smaller towns that surprise you when you least expect it.
Highlights:
- Seaside resorts on Cape Cod and Martha’s Vineyard with ocean views and beach access
- Historic inns in Salem, Concord, and the Berkshires full of local character
- Luxury city hotels in Boston near museums, dining, and waterfront strolls
- Boutique getaways in Cambridge and Northampton with artsy flair
- Family-friendly resorts with pools, nature trails, and year-round activities
