We were hooked as soon as we heard “pop-up roller-skating rink” at Pelham House Resort, beachside in Dennis Port on Cape Cod, Massachusetts. Here, guests can spin into winter with the new Skate the Cape getaway. Along with an overnight stay in luxury accommodations, there’s plenty of skating fun and live music at The Rink.

 

Through March, the Cape-centric escape includes one night in an ocean-view room, a $50 food and beverage credit good at The Rink or The Rooftop restaurant, roller skate rentals and one 45- minute skating session for each guest. Skate sizes include adult and kids ages 6 and up.

“The Rink at Pelham House Resort is ready to welcome guests and locals to spin, dance, and create unforgettable memories as the ultimate roller-skating hotspot [sic] on Cape Cod,” said John McCarthy, managing partner, Pelham Hospitality.

 

During the holiday season, themed nights include décor, special menu items at The Restaurant, and beverages such as Blades of Glory and the Rudolph Rickey. After the New Year, themes will include Barbie. And, if all those Moonwalks and Grapevine moves have worked up an appetite, take a break for Maple Brook Farms burrata salad, fried green beans or a jumbo crab cake sandwich. The 1900s-era resort has great views of Nantucket Sound, 33 guestrooms, a private beach, an outdoor pool and three dining options.
