The Main Building
The original heart of the Anchorage Inn, the Main Building offers a range of room styles from cozy 200-square-foot rooms to 350-square-foot Spa Suites with jetted tubs. The main building is a motel style, 3 story building with an exterior corridor, shared balcony on upper floors, and elevator. The standard rooms with the best views are in the main building. Centrally located with easy access to the front desk, lobby lounge, and all resort amenities including both pools and the beach.

The 24 Ocean Suites are the most spacious and private accommodations on the property. Each 500-square-foot open-concept suite features a king or two queen beds. Additional stylish features include a gas fireplace, sink, undercounter fridge, and microwave, and a luxurious Kohler soaking tub with heated bathroom floors. Private balconies offer ocean views just steps from Long Sands Beach, and continental breakfast is included.

Built around the heated indoor pool, the Atrium puts you steps from a swim any time of year. The atrium building is hotel style with an interior corridor, a pool down the middle, and rooms on either side. The majority of the rooms have 2 queens, with a few single kings and accessible kings. The atrium has 3 floors and 2 sides. There is the limited ocean view side and the non-ocean view side. The atrium is perpendicular to the beach across the street. It is the most popular building for families with young children and for guests visiting in the off-season, when the indoor pool become the social hub of the resort.

The office building is where our guest reception is located as well as one of our indoor pools and our indoor hot tub. Our grab and go cafe and bar is adjacent to our front desk, and free coffee is always available.

Two-story loft rooms (there are three) offer a unique layout with a king bed upstairs and either an additional king bed (end units) or a living area (fireplace, pull out sofa and kitchenette) downstairs (middle unit). The two-level design provides natural separation between spaces — great for families who want kids to have their own area or couples who need extra space.

Our Sun and Surf restaurant is located directly across the street from the Anchorage Inn. Whether you're getting ice cream at the take-out window, sitting on the patio with a signature cocktail or enjoying a traditional boiled lobster in our dining room, there are plenty of options for our guests. Our restaurant is family friendly and offers a kids menu. Please see the dining page for seasonal hours.

What Our Guests Say
We had a balcony with a beautiful ocean view. The daily happy hour with complimentary wine, beer, and cheese was a wonderful touch. Three pools, walkable to the beach and Nubble Lighthouse — we'll definitely be back.
We have been staying at the Anchorage Inn for about 25 years. It is the perfect destination for families — the kids love the pools and the beach is right across the street.
Comfortable and well situated, this inn has lots of amenities. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful, and the location on Long Sands Beach is hard to beat.
The kids loved the water slide and splash pad, and the indoor pool was great for rainy days. Right across from the beach — perfect for a New England family getaway.
