Doryman’s Oceanfront Inn is one of those rare Newport Beach places where the building itself is part of the experience. Constructed in 1921, it originally served as a bunkhouse for the fishermen of the Dory Fishing Fleet, the group that has launched boats from the sand beside the Newport Pier and sold their catch onshore since 1891. Today, that same structure has been restored into a Victorian-inspired boutique inn, keeping its connection to the working waterfront while offering a peaceful coastal stay. The inn sits directly across from the Newport Pier, so guests are staying in the exact heart of the tradition the building was created to support. It’s not a replica of history or a themed hotel — it’s an authentic piece of Newport’s seaside story that still lives in the neighborhood around it.
