Top Sand Beach Hotel Reviews

Anchorage Motel

8/10 Good

"The hotel was great, very clean and great location to be downtown in Bar Harbor. Easy walk to downtown. We have been use to having a coffee maker in our rooms but coffee/tea was only available in the lobby."

Main Street Motel

10/10 Excellent

"Will definitely be back!"

Bar Harbor Manor

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was charming thanks to the wonderful staff and attentiveness to the rooms! Rachel and Christopher were just a delight and so very helpful at the front desk! The hotel was very convenient to walk around Bar Harbor as well as visiting Acadia National Park. They offer some grab and go items for breakfast like oatmeal, yogurt, and granola bars which was perfect for us to get an early start on the trails! We would definitely recommend this hotel to our family and friends!"

The Pathmaker Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We loved our stay at the pathmaker’s hotel. It was a very welcoming place and all the staff were very kind. Our room was wonderful, and the location was perfect to park our car and walk to all of the local restaurants and bars. We would highly recommend for anyone to stay at Pathmaker."

"Very clean room and entire facility. Front desk was very helpful in recommending local restaurants. Breakfast was fast and reasonable at their Looking Glass Restaurant.

Would definitely recommend."
