“We loved everything about this motel, especially the fun retro vibe they have created. The rooms were tastefully decorated with many playful touches. Everything was clean and in good condition. The staff were all very courteous and helpful. The food at the breakfast bar was delicious. We will not hesitate to stay there again if we ever make it back to Bar Harbor.”
“Lovely hotel and large rooms..we stayed in the Beehive Room. Nice and quiet. They do have a great GF breakfast with blueberry pancakes, fruit, eggs and bacon. Will definitely stay again. Little tight on the parking spots.”
“We liked that the property had the basics right- clean rooms, comfortable beds etc.
We enjoyed the piano sessions in the evening in the common area.
While you can’t just step out and be in downtown, it’s within reasonable walking distance if weather is good.
One annoyance was that we always needed to carry a physical key with us instead of card or app.”
“We were so happy with our stay at Island Place. The accommodations were comfortable, immaculate and the staff couldn’t have been more helpful. The location was very convenient, about a 10 min walk to the Main Street.”
“Such a charming space! Our room was cozy and clean. It's perfectly located to access the shuttle buses to the park and there is so much to see within walking distance.”
“We paid extra for a pool view and ended up on the first floor. There was a huge bush positioned in our view, so no view of the pool or the bay. I would not recommend spending the extra money for a “view”. We complained to the hotel staff and they did nothing about it.”
“Beautiful inn with a very relaxing and vibrant front lawn depending on when you sit out - quiet and relaxing in the morning for coffee and delicious muffins, etc., complimentary of the inn or after 5pm when the fire pits are lit and then vibrant and festive during the live music sessions 12-5pm daily. Our room was very pretty although dimly lit. Ladies bring a makeup mirror with lighting if that’s important. All the staff were friendly and accommodating. The temperature of our room was hard to...
“The Highbrook Motel exceed my expectations. The staff were friendly and accommodating and the room was extremely clean. The location was convenient and close to bar harbor. What I love the most was the text communication. Everything from check in, check out, breakfast orders and cleaning. Great place, highly recommend.”
“We loved our stay. The location was perfect - easy walking distance to downtown and just a short walk from the Bar Harbor trail sandbar that is only passable at low tide. The staff were great and the savory and sweet breakfast options were delicious! Plus the water pressure in the shower was fantastic! Would definitely stay again.”
