“The place is superb! The pictures accurately capture the beauty of the bedrooms, the excellent views over Hull bay and the spacious common rooms. The suites are particularly inviting, with ample room for four.The staff was exceptionally responsive and helpful throughout the reservation process. Check-in/out was simple. If you are looking for a home base to explore the South Shore and Boston, I encourage you to consider the Beacon. The ability to walk to the beach, drive to Cohasset/ Hingham/ Weymouth/ Quincy and ferry to Boston makes the property an ideal home base.” – Michael D.
