Our room was darling, spotlessly clean, and featured a stunning beach view alongside the most comfortable "cloud" bed. Breakfast was a highlight: morning scones, muffins, coffee, and tea on the enclosed porch, plus a seamless breakfast partnership with Shade just a short walk away which provided a wonderful breakfast buffet including Nutella filled beignets. The service was top-notch--incredibly attentive, warm, and informative. We also loved the thoughtful amenities, especially having complimentary beach bikes, wagons, chairs, and towels ready to go. We will definitely be back!

Until Covid and we moved to take care for mom, had we missed our fall stays. Rodney over the years has been the most wonderful host. Recently Rodney and his wife Debbie have graciously allowed me to Memorialize my husband and our stays together at the Breakers. i thought a perfect way to do that was to buy 2 LL Bean Adirondack chairs for the front lawn for everyone to enjoy the view as we did over the year. I hope readers of the reviews choose to stay and enjoy the Breaker's for the view, the hospitality, the beast breakfast in town, but most of all the sense of peace that you get when you stay at The Breakers and walk on Higgins Beach, it's life changing.

I enjoyed our family's trip to Point Sebago. We rented a Glamping site and had a blast. Place was…read morevery kid friendly. Lots of kid activities, beach had gradual entry and swimming docks, and a few playgrounds right at the beach. Interestingly, PS was also very adult oriented with relaxed adult beverage consumption. We also rented a golf cart for the weekend. Fun times! It is a campground, not a resort. So know what a campground is before you book. There are many RVs and small "park homes" (small trailer looking tiny homes). They seem to be converting PS into more upscale tiny homes right on the lake. A welcomed improvement from my perspective. Food was okay for the limited menu. They have stuff for the kids (hot dogs, grilled cheese, etc.). We also got grilled chicken Cesar wraps. I would hate to have to eat dinner out all week there as the food appeared to be so-so. The rum bucket was good! Will return next year!

Very disappointing resort experience -- especially if you come here to swim…read more I honestly don't understand how Point Sebago markets itself as a great lake vacation destination when the main swimming area at the resort is in such poor condition. The biggest disappointment was the swimming area. The water was extremely unclear, and the lake bottom was covered with so much vegetation that walking through it felt like stepping on a heavy plastic bag. It was unpleasant and honestly disgusting. Swimming should be one of the main attractions of a lake resort, yet we found ourselves avoiding the water. What makes this even more frustrating is that we visited other beaches around Sebago Lake and the water was significantly clearer and the swimming experience was much better. So this is not simply a "Sebago Lake" issue. It appears to be a problem with the resort's own swimming area and how it is maintained. If other parts of the lake can have clear, enjoyable water, there is no reason guests should have to accept this at a resort. The nighttime experience was also terrible. People were making noise until around 3 AM, despite the resort's stated quiet hours beginning at 11 PM. We contacted resort security because our family was trying to sleep, but unfortunately, nothing meaningful was done. What's the point of having quiet hours if they aren't enforced? We also looked into renting a boat but decided against it after being told that the rental boats did not have insurance coverage and that we would be responsible for damage. As inexperienced boaters, we obviously weren't comfortable taking that risk. I want to be fair: our cabin itself was okay, and Kate, the co-host, was genuinely kind and helpful. She listened to our concerns and did her best to help. My criticism is directed at the resort experience and management, not her. Overall, this was not the relaxing lake vacation we expected. The swimming area, lack of nighttime noise enforcement, and boat-rental situation were major disappointments. There are other places around Sebago Lake where you can enjoy much better water and a more pleasant experience. I would not recommend Point Sebago if swimming and a peaceful family vacation are your main reasons for coming here.

While the accommodations are first rate, the staff is even better. Everyone is cheerful and ready to assist in any way possible. Sam and Eva get special recognition for their tireless efforts in suggesting restaurants and activities in the area. The wife and I can get pretty demanding when it comes to restaurants and they made it their mission to not let us down. Mission accomplished!! After three glorious days at the Inn, we leave with some trepidation. How can the accommodations for the rest of our trip measure up to this?? On hind-site, we probably should have made Inn by the Sea our last stop instead of our first. Oh well, you live and learn.

The owners Leila and Anthony are truly the kindest and most hospitable people I have ever met. From the second we walked into the Inn it truly felt like we were right at home. The Inn itself is beautiful, quaint, charming and very clean. Our room was super cozy and the bed was SO comfortable (I will definitely miss it). The water pressure in the shower was great, which is hard to come by sometimes. The grounds are manicured and so comfortable. I spent hours on the hammock and in the rocking chairs reading and relaxing. What really blew me away was the breakfast and the treats. Anthony preps all the food and is a breakfast and pastries GENIUS. First night we were there they had snickerdoodle whoopee pies with a maple cream cheese filling (individually wrapped to be extra safe and clean) and I may or may not have taken a couple more with me to enjoy later in the evening... The location of the Inn is PERFECT. You are walking distance to Long Lake and a few little shops and minutes away from Lake Sebago. I truly cannot recommend this Inn enough, and I cannot wait to get back here! Thank you Leila and Anthony!

We went back down to the desk to discuss the mistake, and which time they informed us they cut their contract with hotels.com because they kept booking people in rooms not matching accommodations, and they don't even have any rooms with 2 beds (or none available, unclear.). In order for us to stay, we had to book another room that was not ready sight unseen. We were told we would need to speak to hotels.com for a refund. We attempted to get a partial refund from hotels.com and were informed that the hotel said we accepted alternative accommodations. Inn staff also reported they gave us the second room for free, which is also untrue. They refuse to make it right. The rooms were small, the hallway smelled of vomit when we went back to our rooms that night, and the second rooms ac did not work properly. Beware and avoid staying here if you are a group or family unless you'd like to squeeze into tiny rooms and get 0 customer service for a mistake on the Inns end. The worst hospitality experience I've ever had, coming from someone who has worked in and frequented MUCH nicer accommodations. Edit to add: check their reviews outside of google. That is the only place people rave about them, which is super fishy. Update to Anthony: Every part of your response was untrue. That's a shame you feel the need to continue to lie. There were no multiple visitors to our room, we didn't tell you to charge the card you told us you would because you wouldn't fix the error as it was a hotels.com issue, you never mentioned the cooling issue, etc etc etc. if you had been willing to comp the second room (we shouldn't need to tell you we needed two beds, that's what we booked for.) and had not continually lied to hotels.com, this review wouldn't be here.
