The cottage was spotlessly clean, and whoever designed these rooms made brilliant use of every inch of space, creating a comfortable and functional stay without sacrificing character. The décor perfectly captures the Bar Harbor, Maine vibe, with gorgeous antiques and thoughtful touches throughout. The entire property is exceptionally well maintained, from the cottages themselves to the beautiful grounds. Everything you could possibly need is provided. Check-in was seamless and incredibly easy. We especially appreciated the amenities, including the fire pit, grills, and outdoor games. Our cottage had the most adorable porch, which was the perfect place to relax after a day of exploring. The location is ideal--close enough to downtown Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park for convenience, yet far enough away to enjoy peace and quiet away from the crowds. We absolutely loved our stay and would not hesitate to return. Highly recommend!

I was honestly nervous about staying at a motel, but this place changed my mind--it feels more like a hotel than a motel! The rooms were extremely clean, spacious, and comfortable, and the beds were amazing. The staff was wonderful and truly went above and beyond. We stayed for three nights, and every single day our beds were made and the garbage was taken out. The main office was always helpful, and they provide brochures to help you find things to do in the area, along with extra towels at check-in. The huge pool was a favorite for our kids--they absolutely loved it! The complimentary coffee for adults and hot chocolate for the kids was such a thoughtful touch. The price was very reasonable for everything they offer. I cannot recommend this place enough! If you're looking for a clean, family-friendly, comfortable place with amazing service, this is definitely somewhere I would recommend to others. We had a fantastic stay and made great memories here!

They did give us a bag with a couple waters and a bag of chips because we are platinum members on the BW rewards program. Day 1 door was still not repaired. Day 2 maintenance was called while I waited and door was finally repaired. Asked about room cleaning and they said someone would stop in on the third day. Day 3 we were told the desk clerk on day 2 forgot to put us on the list so they were not able to clean our room. During our stay I had to go get toilet paper and paper/plastic cups from them. No cleaning person showed up to restock those items or to empty trash. One positive note was the coffee machine in the breakfast area was finally working this morning.

The reviews are all great and that is for a reason. The place is awesome. The location is awesome. The hosts are awesome and last but not least, the breakfast is awesome. The rooms have great views and the beds are very comfortable. It is super relaxing too. Luckily, the weather cooperated with sunny and temps in the 70s. We even saw a bear while taking a hike in Acadia. Check this place out and you won't regret it. That is IF you get a reservation. Everyone wants to go here! Hint: Book early as they are only open from May to October! We hope to go back next year. Jim/Margaret Clemmens Towson, Maryland.

We were informed once we got there that dogs were not allowed onto the hotel property and were not allowed to be left in the room.

I understand their reasoning for not disturbing other guests but I would not hv booked this hotel if I had known in advance. It was an expensive cottage that really cramped our vacation. Great breakfast.

The view is spectacular, and we had a great time watching the tide come in and go out. They also put flowers in the room for our anniversary! The restaurant next door (same owners) brought us food on the patio outside the cabin, so we were able to have a private little dinner. The cabins are very close to the Hull's Cove Entrance of Acadia and about five minutes drive to downtown Bar Harbor, but still nice and quiet. Definitely a place to return to!

As parents of…read moretwo young children, it was amazing to have it feel relaxing and fun for everyone--but The Bayview somehow managed to do exactly that. It wasn't just a vacation; it felt like we were genuinely cared for from the moment we arrived until the day we left. The attention to detail throughout the property is exceptional. Every member of the staff was warm, welcoming, and eager to make our stay special. We were constantly amazed by the thoughtful touches--from the personalized treats waiting for our kids, to the beautifully folded laundry returned in a charming basket (what a luxury for a mom on vacation!), to the nightly turndown service that made us feel completely pampered. Breakfast each morning was outstanding and we all loved the afternoon teatime! Chef Tricia and her team created delicious, beautifully prepared food. it was lovely to be able to pop in for breakfast or afternoon tea and treats each day. Our children loved the nightly s'mores around the fire pit, the playground, and wandering the shoreline trail to climb on the rocks by the water. Those simple moments became some of our favorite family memories. The complimentary shuttle into downtown Bar Harbor made everything incredibly convenient, and the hotel's location--just minutes from Acadia National Park--couldn't have been better. My daughter and I enjoyed taking the shuttle to the sister property for morning yoga. We enjoyed all the beauty and adventure of the area while always looking forward to returning "home" to The Bayview each evening. A very special thank you to Vinet at the front desk, the manager, Chef Tricia, and every member of the team. You each made us feel truly special. The level of hospitality you provide has really set the bar. Our week flew by. We left feeling refreshed, spoiled, and already talking about when we can come back. Thank you, The Bayview, for giving our family what was truly our best family vacation yet. We can't recommend this hotel highly enough!

This is their number one asset, and they treat it that way. The room highlights the view perfectly, and the grounds are impeccable. - The room was nice, clean, and everything in it just right. The room cleaning staff was excellent. - The extra touches were a delight: chocolate strawberries for our 34th anniversary with a note, the water bottles, turn-down service with little gifts. Little touches like that around every corner. - The breakfast (and food in general) exceeded our expectation. Whoever they have in the kitchen is doing a bang-up job. - The front desk staff was gracious, helpful, and prompt. The concierge helped us with reservations and itinerary. Top notch. - The shuttle was great. It made the hotel's distance from downtown a non-issue. - We had a minor issue with an overly-enthusiastic dog (remember this is a pet-friendly hotel btw), but the staff and management handled it quickly and professionally, again making it a non-issue.
