Set along a mile of unspoiled sand beach on the coast of Maine, Inn by the Sea offers an experience that feels both luxurious and deeply connected to nature.
From the moment you arrive you feel a sense of privacy and calm. Elegantly appointed rooms and spacious suites up to 1300 sq. feet invite you to unwind in comfort, where ocean breezes drift through and relaxing Atlantic views are part of the daily rhythm. Each space is designed with intention, balancing space to reconnect with family and friends with the relaxed ease of coastal living.
Days unfold at your pace. Spring through fall morning yoga starts your day on the seaside lawn, then walk along the pristine shoreline, where fall through spring the only footprints may be your own. Afternoons are best spent poolside at the heated outdoor pool, overlooking the Atlantic, or wandering through the grounds featuring native coastal landscaping and pollinator gardens.
For couples looking for relaxation in all seasons, the Inn’s spa offers a thoughtfully designed menu of treatments inspired by the sea. Try the room for two with side-by-side massage tables or the Higgins Beach Sea Waves massage with surf surround sound and an undulating bed that mimics the tumble of the ocean. No need to give up on your daily work out, the cardio room complete Pelotons, Fitness on Demand and steam rooms will keep you on track.
Dining is equally memorable. Ocean-views frame a culinary experience in Sea Glass restaurant rooted in freshness and creativity, with hand-crafted dishes made from regionally sourced ingredients. Whether your palate leans toward classic coastal fare or plant-based cuisine, every fresh, seasonal menu is designed to delight.The regional art in Sea Glass and the fireplace lounge celebrates the soul of the coastal location with original canvases that would be the envy of most galleries.
The Inn is well-suited for multi-generational travel, offering expansive, direct ocean view suites with full kitchens, dining areas, and inviting living rooms with fireplaces, thoughtfully designed for gathering. Even the family dog will love the experience. Whether sharing a leisurely breakfast, celebrating milestones, or simply spending time together, these oversized suites help bring people together across all ages.
For younger guests, during school holidays engaging programs like “Bugs Life” introduce the local ecosystems through hands-on exploration, sparking curiosity around the natural world. Adults are equally invited to deepen their appreciation of the coast through guided beach ecology walks or garden tours with the head gardener. Cruise the coast, visit nearby historic lighthouses or find a lobster shack on our bicycles to borrow.
In the evening gather by the campfire for nightly s’mores to capture the spirit of vacation in all seasons. Enjoy a handcrafted cocktail in the lounge or outdoors on the seaside boulevard in warm weather or by fire tables in winter after snow shoeing on the beach!
Sustainability is woven throughout, with eco-conscious practices guiding everything from community support to landscaping to daily operations from electricity sourced from Maine solar farms, recycled sheet rock walls, or 7 EV charges for complimentary guest charging. Here, luxury and responsibility exist in harmony, enhancing both your stay and the surrounding environment.
Discover a place where natural beauty, thoughtful design, and understated elegance come together to create a coastal escape where luxury comes naturally.
