Location

20 Fordham Way, Newbury, MA 01951

With a golden sand beach and sweeping ocean views, our Plum Island hotel offers a unique vantage point to experience the beauty of the Atlantic seacoast. Our MA beach hotel is 10 minutes from the lively and charming North Shore haven of Newburyport, yet off on its own little stretch of sand—away from the masses. Your perfect New England beach escape awaits at Blue. Unwind to the sounds of seagulls soaring and waves crashing. Relax in the hot tub or enjoy a glass of wine on the deck. Retire to a restful room or suite, then wake to a sweet and savory breakfast basket. You won’t believe this charming beach hotel is just an hour’s drive from Boston!
