Bittersweet Bed and Breakfast was absolutely perfect!! The grounds and building was meticulously maintained with care. The room was adorable and our chats with Victor (the owner) were great!! It is about a 2 minute drive to York Beach, a short walk to Neddick beach and about 10 minutes from Ogunquit. We had a fabulous stay and highly recommend this sweet B&B!!

Very relaxing

Our room was clean and beautifully decorated. Our hosts were friendly, gracious and interesting to chat with. Breakfast was the same each day. A bit of variety and/or creativity could improve that. The photos in the listing were a bit misleading regarding proximity to the beach. There was no ocean or bay view and a beach day would require a car. Overall our stay was relaxing and pleasant.

A wonderful stay at the Bittersweet B&B

We just returned from a 3 night stay at the Bittersweet Bed & Breakfast and thoroughly enjoyed our time there. Check-in was easy and our room was excellent! We enjoyed our breakfast outside on the covered porch, so relaxing! Our hosts were gracious, professional and welcoming, offering good suggestions for dinner in nearby restaurants and friendly conversation. The location of the B&B was excellent, just south of Ogunquit and just north of York. The outlet shopping at Kittery was a short drive away. We highly recommend a stay here, without question!

This is the second time we stayed with Victor and Ray. Everything was perfect. The room was clean and comfortable. Actually slept with the window open and smelled the ocean breeze. The grounds are impeccable and the Blueberry muffins were the best we ever had. Only place we will ever stay while in York, Thank Yoy for a lively time. Joanne and Bill Westfield, Ma j

Lovely stay close to the beach

We came for the weekend to visit the area, and had such a lovely stay. We have stayed in several bed and breakfast before, and this was one of the most clean locations we have stayed at. The bed was comfortable, breakfast was delicious, and the location of the property itself was very convenient to visiting the local area. We were able to walk to short sands beach in about 10 minutes, and also walked to dinner at the local lobster pound as well. Our hosts were also very friendly and offered good suggestions of sites to visit in the local area. We would definitely stay here again!

Would highly recommend!!! (: Bittersweet B&B,Cape Neddick,ME My youngest granddaughter Rebecka booked a room for us at this lovely B&B for 2 nights. The accommodations were beyond my expectations since I had never been to a B&B before. Our hosts were such wonderful people and made us feel so welcome in their beautiful home. The grounds and gardens were beautiful,you could tell they loved their home and outside areas. We were provided with a tasty breakfast each morning of fresh blueberry muffins, toast or English muffins, scrambled eggs,bacon,coffee,tea, juice and more It was to die for!! If I could I would rate this as 10 Stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Thank you Victor and Ray for your hospitality. Gail Grace…. Nana to Rebecka Grace 07/06/2024-07/08/2024

Victor and Ray were awesome hosts!! The breakfast was delicious, they helped with all needs... They were quick to offer a hose to help wash a wound off outside, they were a wealth of knowledge about the surrounding area (including great places to eat!). A great great GREAT place to stay, what a wonderful experience! We travel all the time, but not normally to the same place. However should we ever come back to the York area, well be staying here! Thank you Victor and Ray, your hospitality was wonderful!

This property was just perfect. It's a lovely B&B, with the sweetest hosts, Victor and Ray. From the moment we arrived until the time we left, they were there to make our stay perfect. We loved sitting on the porch having our coffee and/or cocktails. Great little lobster roll joint right across the street. The breakfast they made was wonderful, especially the blueberry muffins. Would highly recommend and will certain stay here again if/when we return to this area. Convenient to all surrounding areas. Thank you Bittersweet!
