Reviews for Inn by the Sea

Fabulous experience on a short return stay at Inn by the Sea

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 week ago

Inn by the Sea is one of our very favorite New England hotels. We enjoyed everything from check-in (Betsy was a delight) through checkout. The property is pristine and cozy for our fall season stay. The fall Halloween decor on the grounds and common spaces was just right. Plenty of good dogs (leashed) were on property too. Our room was so comfortable I didn't want to leave!

Would stay again....be careful if you are an I-Prefer loyalty member

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 week ago

Beautiful resort. High season and highest prices start in May and run through October. We stayed in March and most recently in September. March was a fraction of the cost. There is an ongoing "glitch" - that's how on site staff explained it in March and in September with the connection between rates they quote you if you call, rates you see online on their own website and communication if you are an I-Preferred member. I am a Titanium I prefer member that comes with a list of perks. I redeemed a few points to reduce my nightly rate on my most recent trip. It was a headache trying to see a confirmation from the hotel ahead of my trip that confirmed my new nightly rate. They said they cannot see what I-Prefer is doing with regard to that. We did utilize an I-Prefer perk and upgraded to a larger room based on availability for this recent trip. We were not greeted at check in as I-Prefer guests and were not offered the on-site perks - gift, candy, free complimentary cocktails, etc.. Othere than that, it's a beautiful setting with a lovely walk to a beach. The rooms are very nicely decorated, super comfy beds and linens and really superb housekeeping on every visit.

A beautiful, perfect first time Maine experience, away from the big town of Portland, but and capturing that perfect fall feeling that we were hoping for. Staff was really nice and funny!

Inn by the Sea stands out for its beautiful oceanfront location, bright and comfortable rooms with large windows overlooking the sea, and its attentive, caring staff. The Sea Glass restaurant offers excellent cuisine, both for breakfast and dinner, with a relaxing view of the ocean.

Beautiful location with a walk way to the beach. The beachfront suite is top of the line. The s’mores night was a great surprise. Great staff.
