Independent in Beals from NZ$230

"Met needs for a motel stay. Room was clean , bed was comfortable, a little dated but well maintained"

"We had a great stay and had everything we needed. Although the weather was overcast, we were still able to enjoy the deck/patio and cook a nice meal. Would definitely book again!"

"Very clean room! Gorgeous views!"

"This is a great place to get away from it all. It was really nice to have a place on the water and sit around a campfire in the evening. The house/cottage is very clean, nicely decorated, and well-equipped. There aren't any stores or restaurants nearby, so stop at a grocery store in Ellsworth. There might be some firewood left by others, but it would be best to purchase some camp wood on the way. It is sold by seemingly everybody. Bar Harbor is an hour away by car. "

"This property was gorgeous. We loved having the beach all to ourselves. Definitely a sweet find!!"

"Great rustic lodging. Helpful and friendly host. Beautiful area and close to many hiking trails in parks and preserves. Highly recommended if you want simple, rustic lodging with comfortable accommodations (nice bed, everything needed for a compact kitchen to prepare meals, and nice picnic table for eating outdoors). "

"We loved our stay here. The host offered the perfect amount of communication and was availavle by text if needed. It was nice and secluded with an amazing view of the water and wildlife, yet close to town. "

"Our family was excited about our stay at this property, as we are very familiar with the area. One the most enticing aspects of this rental was access to the kayaks which were listed as an amenity in the original posting. As our vacation approached, I reviewed the listing details & noticed details had changed, including the removal of kayaks. I reached out to see if they if they were still available and it was only then that it was disclosed they are no longer in the rental. This was disappointing & would have preferred the owner be upfront about change. That said, we were willing to roll with it. When we arrived at the home, the location was indeed beautiful & remote, just what we were hoping for. However, it became clear that the house is in need of attention & repairs. For instance, the front steps into the front door feel as though they are rotting & sagging. Same condition for the steps down to the water front; insecure to walk on. Listed in the amenities was a 'spa tub' which turned out to be a standard bathtub/shower combo, there was no wi-fi (which is totally fine) but the listing refers to a strong cell signal which was unfortunately not our experience (and I only list this, as this could be a safety issue). There is a dehumidifier that is set to maintain 50% humidity, but unfortunately never ran & showed a humidity of 85%."
