This is arguably the best place I’ve ever stayed at. The rooms were comfortable, immaculate, bright and had unbeatable views. The staff is friendly, responsive and beyond helpful. Breakfast was unbelievably good! Great location for walking in and out of Boothbay all day. We will be back!!

We loved our stay! Rebekah did a wonderful job of making our experience memorable and special! We loved the Windward junior suite, the soaking tub and the private deck were so romantic! The morning breakfasts were outstanding, far beyond any average hotel breakfast. We found the accommodations and the views to live up beyond our expectations. This is the best place to stay in Boothbay, hands down!
