Wonderful experience from the moment we arrived to the time we left. Warm, inviting, accommodating, knowledgeable, helpful, and gracious are just some of the words to describe Nicole and Matt. My only regret was not being able to stay longer. The inn is beautiful and WOW on the location and stunning views. The food was thoughtfully prepared with each guest and their needs in mind. Attention to detail is evident. I can’t recommend it enough. Thank you!!

We were initially perplexed, thinking this place was adjacent to Bar Harbor. Thank goodness it isnt. Peaceful and away from the maddening crowds of BH. If you like lots of people, crowded parking, shops and restaurants within walking distance, this place isn't for you. Ehat we found was local hospitality, great restaurants in small towns. Our visits to eastern parks were crowd free,. Vs. main Acadia park, which was overrun. Wont say where we went, you'll have to ask the host of Acadia Bay.

A Hidden Gem on the Maine Coast - Pure Magic!

If I could give more than five stars, I would! Acadia Bay Inn in Sullivan, Maine is the kind of place that stays in your heart long after you leave. Nestled right on the water, this charming B&B offers a peaceful escape with breathtaking views of the bay and the kind of hospitality that makes you feel like family. The private shelling beach was an absolute highlight-especially at low tide, when the shore becomes a treasure trove of tiny shells and sea glass. Every morning started with delicious homemade breakfast, enjoyed inside the cozy dining area or back patio overlooking the lawn. French-pressed coffee was the perfect touch and made with care. The back lawn is a dream for watching the sunrise, daydreaming or reading a good book. The rooms are thoughtfully decorated, with comfy beds that made it hard to get up in the morning. And the BEST part? Hosts Matt and Nicole - they're warm, gracious, and truly go above and beyond to make your stay unforgettable. If you're looking for a tranquil, scenic getaway with all the comforts of home and the charm of Maine, Acadia Bay Inn is it. We can't wait to visit again - Terri & Martin Gately
I sat out back rain or shine!! The view is so peaceful!
Delicious homemade breakfast via Chef Nicole :)
They had our name on a little board outside the front door waiting on us. So charming!

Lovely B & B. Nicole & Matt are wonderful. Perfect for quiet peaceful weekend getaway. House is over 200 years old so the floors are little wonky angled. About a 20-30 minute drive either way to Acadia Nat’l Park. A few local restaurants within 10 min drive. You should notify them of any food allergies ahead of time as breakfast is just one option- what Nicole cooks 😊. Its lovely but if you are not an egg or gluten person you’d have issues. Cocktails wine and beer available for purchase. Matt is the bartender and he loves serving Fench Press coffee.

I can’t say enough about how relaxing and enjoyable our stay was, we even had wonderful weather! Driving up to the Inn and seeing my name on the welcome sign was such a nice touch! It is close enough to drive to Acadia Park, Bar Harbor, and Cadillac Summit, but was always wonderful to come back to out quiet, beautiful room! Thank you all so much!
