CAPE COLONY INN

Nestled on two private acres just blocks from downtown Provincetown, this hotel offers comfy, clean, affordable lodging for couples, thruples and quadruples. They have a heated outdoor pool, old-school picnic grounds, horseshoes, shuffleboard and a beach volleyball court. Yeah they do. The place has been totally refreshed with cable, private bath, fridges, coffee makers, iPod/iPhone-dock alarm-clock radios, triple sheeted beds and toiletries in prep for a total re-fab coming this winter. Werk. And as a SPECIAL OFFER say the magic word: AFTERGLOW when reserving and festival goers snag a rate festival week—7 nights, Tues 9/11-Tuesday 9/18—of only $459 plus tax. Seriously. And up to four people can share the rooms with two double beds, provided someone in your party has purchased a festival pass. So that’s only like, um, er, only, well it’s not expensive. And with a discount festival Glow Pass to all 13 festival shows (or a splurge on a Glamour Pass for all shows and all the parties) this is the most cultured and affordable week you’ll ever spend in PTown. Ask for Chris the innkeeper.

HARBOR HOTEL PROVINCETOWN

The newly renovated HH offers stylish waterfront accommodations, uncommonly good food and entertainment year-round. This is where the Afterglow Festival Artists love to stay and play poolside or lounge in the cleanly designed lobby. A breath of fresh air in Provincetown lodging, there is something so South Beach or San Tropez about this fabulous hotel, with its Cabana Bar and cafe, outdoor fire pit, its blond-wood interiors, pool tables, fireside dining, free movies and its zen, seaside vibe. With spectacular unabstructed views across Cape Cod Bay, complimentary bicycles, ZipCars and even beach picnics-to-go, you won’t want to leave once you’ve come to stay. Awash in vibrant colors, the contemporary rooms and suites are an oasis in themselves, many with water views and pet-friendly (just ask!). The Harbor Hotel is offering Festival-goers a special 15% off-weekday rate so be sure to utter the word AFTERGLOW when making a reservation. Say hello if you see us or remain incognito, sipping your cocktail staring across the azure sea.

SAGE INN & LOUNGE

This stylishy renovated inn and restaurant-lounge is centrally located, bordering on the residential East End and art district, on the historic site of the Pilgrim House. Set back from the high energy of Commercial Street, Sage is an oasis in the bustle, featuring comfortable rooms decorated in Cape-light colors and featuring Queen-sized beds, air-conditioning, flat screens and some adjoining rooms for farcical intrigue. Enjoy complimentary continental breakfast, WiFi access and the coolest, chillest vibe imagineable in the heart of Provincetown. With Chef Lucio Garnica at the helm, the new Sage Longe is a uniqe addition to the Provincetown dining scene, serving a wide array of small plates and a cocktail menu inspired by Boston’s 28 Degrees. A frozen Bellini machine? Uh, yeah, they have one. Mention AFTERGLOW and you’ll get slapped with a 10% discount off your stay. The Afterglow team will in fact have a daytime headquarters on premises so if you have any questions about anything festival-related we are there to help. General Manager Cathy and John at the front desk are the politest of professionals. The new Sage Inn & Lounge has a super-conscious vibe and the ownership is all about promoting the arts, community, pro-environmental and other philanthropic endeavors. The people of Provincetown are “wicked psyched” they’re on the scene.
