Luxury comes naturally at Inn by the Sea, surrounded by the beauty of coastal Maine. Located on a mile of sandy beach in New England the Inn embraces an understated elegance with traditional coastal shingled architecture, but decidedly modern and stylish interiors. Inn by the Sea - part of the L.V.X collection of Preferred Hotels & Resorts - has emerged as one of Maine's premier luxury seaside retreats and has been granted the prestigious AAA Four-Diamond Award. With just 61 rooms, spacious one- & two-bedroom suites and rooms, guests are guaranteed attentive service, elegant hospitality and an experience that promises to exceed expectations. Located in Cape Elizabeth, just 7 miles from Portland, the inn has managed to redefine coastal luxury with its sophisticated interior design coupled with a permanent collection of art created by renowned regional artists that grace public and private spaces.

Reviews for Inn by the Sea
An Inn of pure pleasure
I wanted to treat my daughter to a spa experience at an upscale hotel that also had a restaurant on the premises. Inn by The Sea checked all boxes and was a total pleasure for all the reasons we went. We had a suite facing the water and enjoyed breakfast outside on our balcony each morning. The on-site restaurant was excellent and the spa treatment pure pleasure. I give the inn an A+

Wonderful stay
Beautiful setting and place. Wonderful, friendly staff and service. My wife and I went for a brief rest and some good time together. It was perfect. The azaleas and the view of the ocean and the cool breeze were beautiful.

Great stay at The Inn by the Sea!!!
Beautiful resort, staff was very attentive, loft suite was so nice and very clean. Property was very well maintained! Location was just right, not too far from many parks and lighthouses as well as Portland and Kennebunkport.

Always a great stay
Wonderful escape. So nice to have the dog with the family. Brunch and walks along the beach road. Delicious food from sea glass.

Serenity by the Sea!
This our 3rd return to Inn by the Sea and it will not be our last. We stayed in a Cove Suite again and it felt like a home away from home. The privacy of an Airbnb with the service and amenities of a fine hotel. Beautiful views, happy guests and a perfect Maine vacation.
