 2. Choose Your Stay

When looking for places to visit in Connecticut, you’ll find that Old Saybrook, CT, is a peaceful town with breathtaking sunsets over the Connecticut River and Long Island Sound. When making a direct booking, you’ll love being able to choose your resort accommodations. Whether you’d like a Full Bedroom Suite or Luxury Waterview Room, you’ll have the option to choose your stay. All of that freedom to choose goes out the window with an online travel agency, and no one wants to get stuck next to a noisy ice machine or worse, in a hotel with very few amenities. We offer a variety of accommodations, and while some are available to book online, some are not, please customize your stay by calling our on-site Reservation Agents at 1-860-359-2000. 

3. Keep Your Reservation

One of the worst things that can happen on vacation is losing a reservation, and you’d be surprised how often it happens with third-party platforms. The reason for this stems from your information getting passed from one person to the next, to the next. Book direct and avoid playing a game of telephone with your personal information, reservation, and credit card numbers. 

4. Better Service

When you book direct with Saybrook Point Resort & Marina, you’ll not only secure your reservation; you’ll receive the best service guaranteed. You also won’t feel the pressure of being scammed on the rate or room that you don’t agree upon like you would with a travel agency. You may also find yourself getting the runaround when you speak with an agency on the phone since the person you’re speaking with may not live remotely close to Old Saybrook, CT. You’ll always receive quick, direct answers from our friendly staff when you call 1-860-395-2000 to make a reservation. 

As you’re planning a visit to one of the best places in Connecticut, make the smart decision and make a direct booking. Take a moment to think about who will serve you better.
