A Special Happy New Year, Events on Cape Cod for the Spring, and Maritime Days Celebrations

Happy New Year to all! May 2009 bring you happiness, great health and prosperity.

We look forward to seeing former guests and meeting new ones. To help jump start your spring travel plans, we have a special offer for you. Also, have some of the events that have been posted by the Cape Cod Chamber of Commerce. There will be more to follow.




Celebrate Spring at the Whalewalk Inn & Spa

Spring is a rainbow time of year.
Bright with golden daffodils,
and lots of pretty flowers.

Spring truly is a serene time on Cape Cod. It is a time to celebrate the rebirth of all that is beautiful in nature. We are also celebrating a special time in our lives. This is the year of our 40th Wedding Anniversary. We would like to share this significant event in our lives, and also do our part to boost our economy, by offering our guests a 40% discount, Sunday through Thursday, during the months of April, May, and the first two weeks in June. We do require a three-night minimum for this celebration of Spring and our lives together. And, once having been a teacher, an extra bonus for teachers only – bring your lesson plan book and you may toast spring with a split of champagne.

Do not forget to book your massages when booking your reservation.

So reinvigorate your romance with a Spring stay with us and enjoy this budding time on Cape Cod.

Cannot be combined with any other offer. Valid Sunday through Thursday with a three-night minimum. Friday and Saturday nights are regular off-season rates. Memorial Weekend begins our in-season rates. This special is valid for direct booking only and not when booking through a travel agent.
