Item Description

This Cape Cod vacation package for two will provide you and a loved one with the ultimate romantic and relaxing getaway. A one night stay in the Best Room of homey and romantic Old Sea Pines Inn, dinner for two at Cape Cod's finest restaurant, ABBA, and a whale watching tour of the bay has everything you need for the picture-perfect getaway!

Old Sea Pines Inn is a charming old-fashioned Bed & Breakfast Inn privately located on 3 1/2 acres in lovely bayside Brewster. On rare chilly summer evenings sitting comfortably near the log burning fire place, in the period furniture, is like stepping back in time complete with photo albums of the Inn as it was in the twenties. Just next to the spacious living room is the large, completely restored formal dining room which opens to a spacious outdoor dining deck, surrounded by trees, overlooking the Inn's lawns and gardens. On summer mornings a delicious, full breakfast in this cheerful ambiance is truly a delightful and satisfying experience. The immaculately kept Inn quite graciously manages to combine the best of yesterday and today. It seems to have a foot happily planted in each world. Your wonderful suite includes a working fireplace!

Enjoy a dinner for two at Cape Cod's finest restaurant: ABBA. Chef Erez Pinhas, of Israel, captures the pan-Mediterranean flavors of his native land and recreates them, often by incorporating Thai elements, to create a truly unique and masterful cuisine. The authenticity behind this inventive cuisine is notable as this is no ordinary “fusion” fare. Combinations are harmonious because of a genuine knowledge of the ingredients, a mastery of the skills behind the elegant presentations, and an unstinting commitment to excellence. The dining room, designed by renowned LA architect Budd Holden, and exquisitely appointed by Bratberg, is sophisticated and intimate; candles flicker in hand-painted Moroccan tea glasses, sconces throw a flattering light and banquettes, opulent with pillows in rich fabrics, invite you to linger.

And spend a morning on a Whale Watching tour of Cape Cod Bay!Whale sightings are guaranteed on this dolphin cruise vessel specifically designed for comfort that includes a sundeck on the second level and a walk out platform for viewing on the bow.

Item Special Note
