Good place to stop outside bar harbor and excellent location for getting into Acadia. The property itself is a little worn down and showing its age. If you’re looking for a “cute” place to stay go more downtown. Value for money though this place is great!

The location and outdoor spaces overlooking the ocean at the property are great! However, the room we stayed in was old, poorly ventilated, musty and in need of a dehumidifier. Rooms were not always cleaned on a daily basis. Front desk was confused about room assignment during check-in. On the whole, it was ok. Convenient location relative to Bar Harbor downtown and Acadia National Park.

Look at Total Cost
The resort was well located and had nice amenities. We enjoyed the restaurant and the pool. Our room was well maintained and clean but on the older side. TV, well the tv remote, was very hard to use. The pet fee + the resort fee + the actual room cost was a little shocking to me in the end. Was not expecting a $220 of additional charges at checkout.

When we arrived, our room was equipped with a dehumidifier which was noisy and required frequent emptying BY US. The bathroom was so humid that the floors, counters, mirrors and toilet stayed wet and slimy from the time we took our evening showers until the next morning when we were preparing for our day. The staff was annoying. They repeatedly phoned us and texted us to confirm over and over again that we were, indeed, arriving that day. We kept telling them we were on our way. We arrived before 9 p.m. When pulled into the parking lot to check in, we were pounced upon by the consierge, who told us that he alone had to take our bags to our room, then stood there waiting for a tip. The room, whether because of the humidity problem or something else, felt old and musty. The carpet was ratty and the place was a dump. When we ate at the on-site restaurant, we were considerably overcharged for our meal. We pointed this out to our waiter, who took our receipt and credit card and told us he corrected the overcharge. When we got our credit card bill later that month, the overcharge was still there. But that's not all. This hotel charged an exorbitant amount of money for the room and on-site facilities, including an extra RESORT CHARGE, which seemed senseless since we couldn't use any facilities, namely the workout room because the Peloton required an existing subscription in order to be used. This hotel was a MAJOR DISAPPOINTMENT. Don't waste your money.

The rooms were clean but a tad dated. It was easy to park and a convenient option if going to Acadia. However, not worth staying at if you’re going to be out and about all day. We didn’t end up using any of the amenities. Property outside hotel was pretty, convenient breakfast and coffee station.
