In November, 1964, a recently widowed, uneducated Greek immigrant woman came to Cape Cod in pursuit of a small business in which she could engage and keep her family together. After looking at many different properties, she fell in love with an old lodging house situated on Nantucket Sound. Family and friends were astounded that this little Greek woman was so unequivocally definite about her decision to purchase and operate a lodging house; however, she was determined to keep her family together and believed in her heart she could do this, and did.
This woman was our mother - Ms. Efthalia N. Kossifos; and on this day, a Greek family tradition of hospitality and service dating back to mid-1700's was reborn here on the shores of Cape Cod, and is celebrating its' 40th year. Today, the tradition of service continues. We, Helen N. Kossifos and Dino N. Kossifos, are proud heirs of 'By The Sea' Guests.
Let me very quickly tell you a little about ourselves. We are one of the few Bed & Breakfast Inns on Cape Cod that have their very own private beach. Most of our rooms are oceanfront or have a view of the ocean. All our rates include a full breakfast, which is served on our glass / screen enclosed veranda overlooking Nantucket Sound. After breakfast, a walk awaits you just a few steps down onto our sandy, private beach.
Sincerely,
Your hosts,
The Kossifos Family
