Trade winds on the Bay exceeded my expectations. Room was modern,clean and a great value for the money. Located right on the main st in Rockland so everything is a short walk away. I would stay there again.

Great room.Great location. Pleasant staff. Wonderful pool cleaning attendant. Just wish the website had correct pool hours listed. The pool hours were shortened significantly in the winter, so I missed out on it, which was one of the main reasons I stayed here
