Loved it!

Excellent stay on the ocean! Staff were very welcoming, accommodating and kind. I had a lot of trouble sleeping the first night, needed to find a comfy spot in the bed but then night two I slept great! Traveling alone as a woman I felt very safe staying here which was important. Highly recommend

We had asked for an ocean view. We were told we were being upgraded to a suite. Sounded great, but it was not great! It was in a beautiful stone building, but there was a shared dining table, sofa and chair area, also a shared balcony for I think 4 different rooms of people. It did have a beautiful view! Roman shades were not functional on french doors to balcony, as pulls were ripped, so you couldn’t see the view from inside. One of the globes covering one of the 4 bathroom lights was chipped. There were very few places to plug in electronics. It just looked like a building that had been nice maybe 50 years ago… it felt old and tired… I don’t consider shared areas a suite at all!!! Fortunately, the weather was beautiful during our stay and so walking outside to the restaurant wasn’t an issue. The restaurant BTW was very nice! We had drinks, dinner and breakfast there! I was very pleasantly surprised that the pool and the hot tub were still open in mid-September! My other issue was I was told I would get 500 points for each day if I didn’t use housekeeping. I only got it for one night of our stay. Not a huge deal that I only got 1/2 of the promised amount of points, but still left with a poor impression.

We loved the close proximity of this property to Acadia NP! It was especially nice to come back from a challenging hike and hit up the hot tub. We asked for a late check out and the hotel could only accommodate an extra 30 minutes, which was a little bit of a let down. Otherwise, it was a great stay!

1.Breakfasts were functional - nothing special. 2.There is no place to store your luggage if you arrive before check in time and room not ready. Must take it back to your car. 3. No elevator to second floor of wing attached to central building. Must carry luggage up and down a fire stair.
