Bed and breakfast vacation rentals in Southwest Harbor

Cute little inn with everything you need. Kind of in the middle of nowhere. Very remote feel which is great. Megan and her cousin and the folks there were very hospitable. Only issue i had was with the WiFi. As I had to take a few zoom calls it kept going in and out. Otherwise the place is awesome, highly recommend.

The stay here was beautiful! We only stayed one night but definitely would’ve loved to stay longer. It was such a peaceful, clean, and charming experience!

Staying at Christine's was a great experience. She's a wonderful host, very friendly, makes great conversation and is very knowledgeable about Maine and the areas surrounding her home. A great host!

Very cosy and friendly place. It had everything we could possibly need!

We loved our first bed and breakfast experience! The daily two course breakfast was amazing and we all looked forward to the sweet afternoon treats. It was so convienent to have the Bowspirit bar at the BnB, the food was amazing and made dinner easy when we tired from the day. It’s definitely the peaceful side of the island but not a long drive to Bar Harbor. We had a lot of space, the beds were comfortable, and we appreciated the outdoor space.

Meeting Leslie and staying/ dining in her Ironbound Restaurant & Inn was a highlight of our trip to Maine. We arrived a few hours before the dinner and Leslie introduced us a nice walk nearby to the ocean side before we had dinner at the restaurant. The room was clean and well decorated, full of Leslie’s personal touch that shows her great art taste. In the room we also found a print out of her great tips about exploring the Acadia area that you can hardly get elsewhere. Super great experience and I highly recommend!

Had an amazing weekend at The Lookout! Close to Mt Desert Island for a quick day trip, and beautiful private scenery at the property. Had a great dinner at The Brooklyn Inn, only a few minutes away from the Airbnb. Thanks!

We loved visiting Acadia & the adorable town of Bar Harbor! The Inn and delicious breakfasts, along with Dora’s welcoming was as wonderful as the park. I would happily stay here again! It’s cozy, quaint and was perfect for our trip!

We couldn’t be happier with our stay! Everyone we encountered at the Black friar was exceptionally friendly and helpful. The food was above and beyond our expectations, and we didn’t feel the need to go to any other restaurants. THE COFFEE in the morning is roasted locally and tastes really special. We will be recommending the inn to everyone we know going to Bar Harbor! Thank you!!!

We felt so welcome at the Harbour Cottage Inn from the moment we came! Dora, Daniel and Amy are wonderful and make this a hidden gem. Daniel’s food is unmatched and the best we ate on the entire island! We would recommend staying here to anyone and everyone!

My boyfriend and I had the most incredible stay. The hospitality and kindness of Dora, Chef Daniel and Emily was outstanding. The inn was beautiful and cozy. We could not get enough of Daniel’s food! Highly recommend this place and would definitely come back!

I would like to start by saying that if you’re considering going to Bar Harbor and need a place to stay, please do yourself the favor and book your stay at the Harbor Cottage Inn. If they’re fully booked, reschedule your trip, it simply won’t be the same anywhere else. My wife & I had a wonderful 4 day stay with Dora & Daniel. Dora is an exceptional host and extremely friendly and hardworking. Daniel’s breakfast & dinner bites would put many restaurants in the area to shame, it’s absolutely phenomenal. The Inn is perfectly located in Southwest Harbor, which puts you close enough to enjoy the island during the day and far enough to peacefully decompress in the evening. I can truly say that if we would have stayed anywhere else, our time at Bar Harbor/Mount Desert Island would have not been the same. I am extremely grateful to Dora & Daniel for the experience & I can’t wait to go back for 2025! Thank you!

Dora and Amy were terrific hosts. The house is beautiful and we enjoyed evenings on the porch with drinks and appetizers. Food and drink were amazing including our afternoon snack. Highly recommend

The Black Friar was a great spot. The turret room was unique and very comfortable! We loved sitting by the fire in our “second floor” Everything was very clean and comfortable with little New England-y touches. The restaurant downstairs was delicious and the included breakfast was a full menu, so much better than a hotel continental breakfast! The location is super close to other restaurants and shops and Acadia. I can say that if we are ever back in Bar Harbor I will definitely be booking here again

Cute little bed and breakfast away from the Bar Harbor crowds. Only ~20-25 min drive into the main part of Acadia National Park. Dora was lovely and hospitable. Breakfast was lovely in the mornings and we enjoyed our meals on the porch. The nearby town is small (within walking distance), but has some amazing restaurants (go to Hearth and Harbor). Highly recommend this place if you want to stay near the park, but away from the touristy areas.

We loved our stay with Margaret at this B&B! The house is lovely and our room was clean, super comfortable, and had a warm homey feel. The breakfasts were delicious and Margaret was so accommodating. We had early starts for Acadia and while her formal breakfast is from 8-10 am, she prepared baked goods and coffee to go for us. The one day we had formal breakfast was DELISH! Margaret was communicative, incredibly accommodating and flexible, greeted us kindly on arrival, and she and her husband were excellent hosts, intent on making sure our visit was just to our liking. The area is very quiet (which she let us know ahead of time) and worked perfectly for us to rest up between long days at Acadia and grabbing early dinner on the way back.

Margaret was fantastic and we enjoyed visiting with her in the mornings while drinking our coffee. Breakfast was fabulous every day and Margaret went out of her way to provide delicious food that everyone liked. We loved our visit here!

Wow! To say that we were blown away by Diana and Azie’s hospitality would be a complete understatement! Everything from the wonderful recommendations to the absolutely gorgeous home, made our trip to Surry so special. If you are looking for a beautiful escape with lots to do, look no further! Diana and Azie took every opportunity to make sure that we felt extremely comfortable and at home during our stay. With lots of recommendations for what to do and see, we had loads to choose from each day. We were a close drive to plenty of local attractions, which made planning our trip that much easier. We will absolutely be coming back in the future! Thank you so much!
