Ocean Surf at York Beach

8/10 Good

"The hotel was clean, the staff were friendly and the pool was delightful. For our short stay we would had no complaints."

Quality Inn Portsmouth

10/10 Excellent

"Our car broke down had to wait till the morning for it to get in the shop we had no choice but to get a hotel we were very grateful that the hotel was close by. There was no deposit for the night, free morning breakfast and the rooms was very clean. This is an older hotel but they are upkeeping it well. I seen staff including managers clean in the morning and everyone i spoke to was quite nice. Would definitely stay here again if we were in the area. We are so grateful the hotel was clean and didnt smell funky !"

Cliff House Maine

10/10 Excellent

"A once-in-a-lifetime experience for us. We just wrapped up a week at Cliff House Maine and had an amazing time. The views alone are worth the trip - it's hard to beat sitting on the balcony with a coffee in the morning or a drink in the evening while listening to the ocean, and feel the ocean breeze across your face. The resort strikes a great balance between being upscale and comfortable. The rooms were clean, the grounds were beautiful, and the staff was always friendly and helpful without being overbearing. There is incredible attention to detail for every component of this property - from the interior design to the Maine stations to the "Do Not Disturb" placards, with complimentary binoculars to enjoy the views. There is no detail that was overlooked and everything curated to present the Maine experience to every guest. If you're looking for a relaxing getaway in Maine, without hesitation, I'd absolutely recommend Cliff House."
