Lodging and Planning Travel to the Cape
Page written by Luke (your cape townie): The Cape is a special place, but requires some proactive planning to have the best visit. WE HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND that folks book their hotels as soon as they possibly can. Prices on the Cape will climb significantly as time goes on, and there is only so much space available in quality hotels. Worst case we can stuff you at Luke's parent's place... but lets not. AirBnB / Vrbo homes present an excellent option as well, but transit to the venue will not be provided from these locations. Also keep in mind some of these require Saturday-Saturday rentals so initial availability will not be as it seems. If you're planning a longer trip, please do, and we definitely recommend getting a house for the best experience.
Hotel
Hyannis Harbor Hotel
We have reserved a limited number of rooms at Hyannis Harbor Hotel. Once these are booked, we may be able to request additional rooms, so we encourage you to reserve as soon as possible. To reserve your spot, just give them a call and mention the “Mina-Besse Wedding Block.” If you prefer to book online, you can use this link: https://reservations.hyannisharborhotel.com/ibe/details.aspx?propertyid=17827&nights=2&checkin=6/13/2025&group=6832065&lang=en-us Rooms are also available to the public, and you can book directly on the hotel's website without using our room block.

Travel Note
Traveling from outside New England
Planning your transit time: Please budget for an extra 45 mins+ in ground transit from Boston / Providence if leaving the city between 3-6pm EST. Cape Cod is very popular summer destination, thus "Cape Traffic" can be a very real and painful endeavor... however it is a rite of passage for uninitiated. Arriving early in the day on Friday recommended. Similarly, plan your trip home on Sunday morning leaving about 1 hour of extra time to get back to the city and catch a return flight. Or stay! Airports: Boston's Logan Airport 1:18 from venue Providence T.F. Green Airport 1:24 from venue Hyannis Airport Expensive, but very convenient option Amtrak/Train: Take train to Boston South Station or Back Bay Rt. 128 or Providence are also options Ground Transit Recommendations to Cape Cod: Rent a car (recommended) Getting your own car is worth it traveling to the cape as rideshare can be sparse, and especially if you are extending your trip a bit. Carpooling encouraged to save $ and the trees. Bus Services to Hyannis (cheapest) From bus stop, take 5-10min rideshare to venue locations. Cape Flyer train service (may be faster during HIGH traffic times) Commuter rail train that runs from South Station to Hyannis station. Will take 2+ hours but is quite chill Rideshare from airport to the cape will be north of $150-$200 Contact Luke (617-620-4573) or your favorite AI model with any questions
