Reviews and Ratings
This hotel is a hidden gem, nestled in a secluded area amongst the pines and just a stone's throw away from the harbor. The rooms offer a private balcony with a breathtaking water view, providing a serene and peaceful retreat. The service was top-notch, with the main manager, Frank, addressing all my concerns promptly and even offering alternative arrangements. The dining experience was delightful, with French pastries that melted in my mouth.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. It's located right on the water, offering a mesmerizing view from the private balcony. The service was top-notch, especially with the main manager, Frank, who promptly addressed any issues and even provided alternative arrangements. The location is superb, conveniently close to Boothbay, just a beautiful 3-mile drive away. The dining experience with a gorgeous view of the water was a highlight. The facilities were excellent, making my stay truly enjoyable.
I had an amazing time at the hotel! The location was perfect next to the bay with stunning views, the rooms were cozy with private balconies offering beautiful scenery, and the service was exceptional with the manager, Frank, going above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. However, I was a bit surprised by some events that followed. The dining experience was delightful with gourmet salads and a gorgeous water view, while the facilities provided added convenience and comfort to my stay.
