Select Registry’s Craft Lodging Awards celebrate the best in accommodations, experiences, and hospitality. We are incredibly proud to be recognized for our dedication to sustainability, innovative takes on local seafood, coastal charm, and exceptional service.

Our award-winning restaurant, The Shipwright’s Daughter, provides an exceptional dining experience with a thoughtfully curated menu for breakfast, dinner, and brunch. Since opening in 2020, The Shipwright’s Daughter has become a culinary icon, celebrated both in New England and nationally for its innovative and sustainable approach to local seafood. Since 2021, we have proudly earned three consecutive Wine Spectator Awards of Excellence for our outstanding wine list.

Led by Executive Chef David Standridge, who was recently honored with the 2024 James Beard Award for Best Chef: Northeast, The Shipwright’s Daughter has also been named one of America’s Best Restaurants by The New York Times. We are thrilled to add this prestigious recognition to our growing list of accolades, including our newest distinction from our partners at Select Registry.
