The 136-room Hampton Inn and Suites Cape Cod - West Yarmouth is a budget hotel located in the mid-Cape’s Hyannis area with convenient access to many of Cape Cod’s hotspots. The hotel’s biggest downside is probably that it’s not within walking distance to a beach, but it still has plenty of on-site features appealing to vacationing families. The hotel has an indoor and an outdoor pool, a small arcade, a fitness center, and free shuttle that goes to Hyannis Inner Harbor (with one-hour ferry rides to Martha’s Vineyard or Nantucket). And the beach is only three minutes away by car. Rooms are clean, modern, pleasantly decorated, and include a host of amenities such as microwaves, mini-fridges, free Wi-Fi, and lap desks. Room rates include the standard Hampton Inn buffet breakfast, which has a range of hot and cold foods and a make-your-own-waffles station. Those looking for budget accommodations with full kitchens could try the Chatham Tides Waterfront Lodging.

Green Harbor Beach Resort feels less like staying in a hotel, and more like renting a vacation home in a friendly neighborhood. The cottages and townhouses are comfortable, spacious, and simply decorated, although furnishings are somewhat dated. Amenities such as a heated pool, mini-golf course, and seasonal kids' club make this property a great pick for families, as does its bayside location that offers calm waters, albeit an average beach.

The two-pearl Tidewater Inn -- a 10-minute drive to downtown Hyannis -- is a budget motel that's a step down from comparable area hotels. Inside and out, the architecture and design are unremarkable, and aside from an older mini-fridge and a minimally appointed balcony, each of the hotel’s 100 rooms offers few additional amenities. The motel does feature two pools and a kitschy breakfast-only diner, but little else. Budget travelers looking for decent rates in the area and who don't plan to spend lots of time in their room may be happy, but the dated rooms and overall lack of attention to detail is disappointing. While more expensive, the nearby Surfcomber on the Ocean is a similarly-appointed alternative with a private beach and plenty of charm.

The Mariner Motor Lodge is a family-friendly budget property located on busy Route 28 in West Yarmouth, walking distance from restaurants and a short drive from the beach. Upgrades in 2016 refreshed its 100 rooms with new beds and more cheerful decor, plus 42-inch flat-screen TVs -- but free Wi-Fi is spotty. There's also a free continental breakfast, but food is mediocre and the smallish breakfast area gets crowded. Other features at this motor court-style property include indoor and outdoor pools, mini-golf, and a picnic area with grills. Rates are attractive. While more expensive, the lower-middle-range Surfcomber on the Ocean offers a private beach, plus charming suites with kitchenettes.

The Cove at Yarmouth is a mid-range, family-friendly condo-style resort with 229 townhouses and suites. Located in the Mid-Cape’s Hyannis area, it's close to many of Cape Cod’s hotspots, though a car is required to get around, including to reach the beach. But vacationing families that stay on-site will find loads of activities: indoor and outdoor pools; racquetball, tennis, and basketball courts; and diversions for children and adults. Decor throughout is somewhat dated and generic, but rooms and common areas are spacious with separate living and bedroom areas, and all units also have a small kitchenette, something that's especially helpful as there's no on-site restaurant. Travelers could also consider the nearby Hampton Inn and Suites Cape Cod - West Yarmouth, which has fewer property features, but offers more modern decor and a free breakfast.
