From the reviews

Everything was spotless, inside and out, meticulously maintained. The warmth and friendliness of the staff was just wonderful. They were short staffed, but it was clear guests are #1; no one would ever think they were short on staff It was especially nice to see the same people each day.

★★★★★ — Mary-Jo, May 2022

Fantastic location. Great views . Think all rooms have balcony's/ seating . The hotel has the feel of a coach type Staff friendly and helpful

★★★★☆ — Malcolm, Oct 2025

Very clean room. Staff is very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. Hotel has beautiful views and is walking distance to almost anything you could need. We planned on staying two nights but so peaceful we extended it for two more nights. We never moved our vehicle!!! We are definitely going back next year!!!

★★★★★ — Marion, Oct 2023

Very beautiful location. Right in the heart of Boothbay Harbor. Only one thing I noticed two years in a row, the king size bed seems to be on a queen frame and the mattress tends to slide off. I also like a firmer mattress but that is just me. I highly recommend this place!

Getting married at Boothbay Harbor Inn

Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see the ceremony spot at the exact time of day you'd say your vows — a west-facing beach glows at sunset but bakes at noon, and you'll want to feel the wind, watch where the sun sits, and walk the path your guests take across the sand. Second, bring your real questions: the weather backup (where does the ceremony move if it rains or the wind kicks up?), who pulls the beach permit, the sound-ordinance curfew, the catering and bar policy, and exactly what's included — chairs, setup, and teardown on sand are where quotes quietly diverge. Peak beach dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
