Chatham, MA (April 28, 2025) – Chatham Bars Inn, the award-winning Forbes Travel Guide Five-Star oceanfront hotel on Cape Cod, announces today an impressive lineup of newly-renovated spaces and signature summer experiences. The luxury resort creates the ultimate summer destination, expanding each year on its 100+ years of welcoming guests:

New South Lounge Bar and Bayview Patio

Set to open later this spring, the resort's South Lounge will be reimagined with a custom, restored vintage bar and floor-to-ceiling French doors that lead to a newly installed open-air Bayview Terrace. This new setting will expand the beloved gathering space for guests who can enjoy sunset cocktails on the terrace with incredible ocean views, light bites and live music. The bar and patio further expand the resort's impressive events and wedding spaces. 

World-Class Boating Experiences

Chatham Bars Inn proudly offers a fleet of seven custom boats and seasoned captains to create the perfect, nautical memories. Departing right from the resort's private beach, guests can book anything from a private sunset cruise to fishing and lobstering excursions throughout the summer season. Rather than joining a large group whale-watching tour and struggling to see over a crowd, guests can enjoy a private tour on the Shooting Star, which was designed by Billy Joel, and enjoy uninterrupted views and personalized service. A complimentary daily water shuttle escorts guests to the renowned “outer beach” on the Cape Cod National Seashore's North Beach Island.

Recurring Farm Dinner Series

The Inn's popular Farm Dinner series returns this year on June 18 with weekly farm-to-table dinners hosted at the Inn's eight-acre Farm through November. Set among bucolic fields, the alfresco dinners feature produce harvested straight from the farm. Executive Chef Andrew Chadwick and his culinary team thoughtfully design creative menus for each of the dinners. No two menus are the same and each week's menu highlights the Farm's current seasonal offerings with day-of produce harvested by the devoted team and accompanied by locally sourced meats, seafood and fish. Fall dinners are held in the Farm's glass greenhouses.

In addition to these experiences, the 25-acre oceanfront resort offers stellar dining at its six culinary outlets, relaxing spa treatments at the only Forbes Travel Guide Four-Star Spa on Cape Cod, and daily events and programming for guests of all ages. Chatham Bars Inn has also become a favorite destination to view hydrangeas, and the resort expects to have another banner season of their 8,000 blooms this summer.
