“My (brand new!) husband and I held our rehearsal dinner here in June and it was perfect. Our 32 guests had a specious, semi-private space at the back of the restaurant and it was absolutely lovely. Ricky, the event coordinator, patiently responded to all my questions and the staff did an incredible job setting up the space. The food was reasonably priced and delicious (we went with steak tips, shrimp scampi and chicken, broccoli and penne)! All our guests raved about the food. The atmosphere was lovely, the playlist was great! I cannot recommend this venue enough for your next event. Thank you to Ricky and the rest of the staff for such a memorable and beautiful evening!!”

“Lovely old hotel with plenty of older worlde character. Great lobby area. The Tavern, off the lobby, was also full of character and great standard of meals. Only drawback with our room no.617 was having to negotiate the toilet which protruded across the doorway.”

“Willowdale Estate was an absolutely wonderful place to have our wedding this February. The venue was beautiful, and the entire experience felt seamless from start to finish. Our coordinator, Jeannine, was fantastic. She was warm, professional, and made sure everything went off without a hitch.

She took such great care of us and our guests, made sure everyone was comfortable, did a beautiful job with our decor, and kept everything running smoothly throughout the day. She even kindly sent us home with cookies at the end of the night, which was such a thoughtful touch. We’re so grateful for everything Jeannine and the Willowdale team did to make our wedding feel so special.”

“We held our wedding here in March 2026 and could not have asked for a better experience. From the very first conversation, Allison and her team made us feel completely supported. Wedding planning can be overwhelming, but we never once felt like we were navigating it alone — they were with us every step of the way, communicating clearly and consistently throughout the entire process.

The venue itself is a beautiful blank slate, which we loved because it gave us the freedom to bring our own vision to life. It is even more stunning in person than in the pictures. The space was transformed into something warm, inviting, and truly stunning. Seeing it all come together on the day was an emotional moment we'll never forget.

With 230 guests, we were a little nervous about the space feeling cramped, but it was absolutely no issue. Everyone had plenty of room, and the large central dance floor was an absolute hit — it was packed all night long.

We lost count of how many guests pulled us aside to say it was one of the best weddings they had ever attended. That kind of feedback means everything, and so much of the credit goes to Allison and her incredible team. Their hard work and genuine care made our wedding day everything we had dreamed of.
If you're considering this venue, don't hesitate. You won't be disappointed!”

“I attended an event at Bayside Harbor View Venue and was treated incredibly well. The waitstaff is top-notch, the customer service is excellent, and the manager, Zelia Santos, was always attentive, providing outstanding service and a wonderful personality. I loved it so much that I'm planning to celebrate my birthday at Bayside. It's 100% recommended, and the food was excellent—the best of the best! Thank you for making me feel so special.”

“I have photographed many weddings here, and I love the ocean views and the sea breeze at golden hour. If you get an opportunity to have your last dance outside with the fog, do it! The fire pit after party is always a good idea, too!

“We just had our wedding here and couldn't be happier. The venue is beautiful, and the garden was stunning for a fall wedding. They were replacing flowers outside the morning of just to make sure everything looked great! The food is incredible, the staff is so easy to work with and was responsive to all of our questions, and the main reception space was so easy to pivot from a nice sit-down dinner to a lively dance floor! Couldn't recommend more.”

“We just enjoyed our wedding day at Tupper Manor! From the minute we toured the venue, my husband and I knew this was where we wanted to celebrate our big day!
The venue's decor with stained glass windows, windows overlooking the ocean, and beautiful fireplaces was exactly what we were looking for.
It was such a pleasure working with David and Colby throughout the planning process and on the day of. They were responsive and coordinated. There were so many little details from the day that they coordinated that made my husband and I feel special.
On the day of the wedding, the bridal suite on the second floor was amazing. I was able to spend the morning with my bridal party enjoying breakfast, lunch, and hair and makeup with them without ever having to leave the venue.
All of the staff throughout the day was amazing. From the servers for cocktail hour and dinner, to the staff working the ice cream bar, and the bartenders, everyone was professional, kind, and very conscientious of Joe and I.
If you are looking for a magical venue that offers beautiful settings for indoor and outdoor ceremonies plus a chance to get photos on the ocean, look no further than Tupper Manor!”

“My family, friends and I have seen many great shows here.

The theater does not have its own parking. There are a couple of small lots off Federal and Chapman streets that I usually find a spot in, but get there early as there are also a number of good restaurants in the immediate area so parking is tight.”

“I had my son’s high school graduation here on a Sunday early afternoon! It was a hit! For such a stressful time and season Julie pulled all of the pieces together for me so I could focus on this time of celebration! On arrival Julie had everything set up exactly the way we confirmed months prior! The food was plenty for everyone 70+ people (definitely get the Nacho Bar)! The graduates loved the cornhole, Jenga and I brought a couple of games as well! We had such a great memorable time and it was worth everything to have Julie put everything together, keep everyone safe with monitored food and beverages and spend time dancing, games and celebrating a momentous moment!! Definitely book your next grad party here!”

“Stayed at this hotel due to a unforseen circumstance during traveling. I could not have asked for a better hotel stay after that horrible travel day! Comfiest bed I've ever slept in. Great bathroom and in-suite kitchen.

I would absolutely come and stay again. The staff was also very nice in helping me figure out how to use the shuttle to get back to the airport the next morning.

Breakfast was also amazing.

Overall great!”

“This venue was the second half of a wedding i attended. The vibe was great. The lighting was perfect, drinks were flowing, and the DJ was on point. I understand a lot of this is due to the wedding planning itself, but this is the type of place that allows you to have freedom when throwing an event. The Positive The dance floor was huge The bartender sure knows how to make a drink Extremely friendly staff Right on the water Separate bar for events so regulars can still come and enjoy themselves The Con One bathroom stall for all, although it didn't seem to be an issue for all of us”

“We stayed here for our trip to Boston/Salem/MV/Gloucester. The room was small but it was clean and the hotel was quiet. AC/heater was loud. If you are not planning to be in the room very much and are looking for a room with the basics, it was fine. It is not upscale nor is it low level. Staff could have been more friendly and welcoming when we arrived. Great proximity to the areas mentioned above. Nice photo op near the fountain.

Nearby activities: Quick drive to Salem, Boston, Gloucester and about 1& 1/2 hrs. to New Bedford for the ferry to Martha’s Vineyard.”

“I see a lot of bad reviews of this Holiday Inn. I also read that it used to be a shelter ?. I always check the bed first for bedbugs, and nothing. Everything was very clean, staff was very nice, shower had good pressure, microwave, fridge, and tv's worked great. I felt completely safe, and even tried to get in at a side door that you could only get out of. No sketchy characters, no dirty hallway carpets, no bad smells, and every outlet worked. There were USB ports in every lamp (there were 4 in the room), and the temperature control was great. I would recommend this hotel. I feel like it got a bad name. Maybe they worked on everything that everyone complained about, and that's why it's better. I would stay here again whenever my husband's band plays in Beverly. My husband is a diamond elite member as well have stayed in these hotels all over the country. Never a problem. We were in room 403.”
