Welcome to Island Place

We.re so happy to be here. If you come, you won’t regret it because the service, the room, and Kate — a wonderful person who was very attentive — made our stay amazing. She gave us a lot of information about places to visit in the area. A big hug to her and her team. Thank you so much.

We had such a wonderful stay at Island Place! Kim was so friendly when she checked us in and gave us so much helpful information about the area. The location couldn’t be better—an easy walk to downtown Bar Harbor and just a quick drive to Acadia National Park. Parking right out front was super convenient. The rooms were immaculate, cute, and perfectly quaint. We loved having a sitting area right outside our room on the deck to relax and drink some coffee, and the gardens were absolutely beautiful. We even met the owner as we were checking out, and she was so kind and personable. We’ll definitely stay here again for both the cleanliness and the unbeatable location. Highly recommend!

My wife and I spent over a year planning our fall foliage trip to Maine, and discovering Island Place was truly the highlight. This locally-owned gem exceeded every expectation! From the moment we arrived, the owner greeted us personally and made us feel like family. The hospitality was outstanding – fresh hot coffee always available, insider recommendations for restaurants, and fantastic suggestions for activities beyond Acadia National Park. You can tell they genuinely care about their guests' experience. Location is unbeatable: We easily walked to downtown Bar Harbor's incredible restaurants and shops (just a few blocks!), saving on parking while soaking in the charm of the area. It's also perfectly positioned close to Acadia National Park. The room was immaculate – seriously spotless. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and I was thrilled to find not one but TWO comfortable chairs for unwinding after long days of exploring. These thoughtful touches matter! If I could give Island Place 10 stars, I would without hesitation. Their warmth and attention to detail transformed our special trip into something truly magical. Do yourself a favor and book here. You won't be disappointed. Island Place is exactly what makes travel meaningful – genuine hospitality, perfect location, and an experience you'll treasure. We can't wait to return!

This location was excellent within Bar Harbor. It was close to restaurants, shops, and the water. It was also a very close drive to Acadia National Park, usually within 15 minutes or 20 minutes tops. The room itself was spacious and clean. The front office had a water station to refill for hikes and also coffee. We were also able to keep our car parked right out front in a very convenient location. Front desk staff could not have been nicer. They were helpful with restaurant locations and suggestions. Also with just general conversation and information. Very happy with our stay here.

Super cute Inn! It was extremely clean and the owner is the sweetest! She had so much useful information for us during check in and throughout the trip, including about the best ways to get into Acadia National Park and info about the free bus shuttle service that will also transport your bikes for free! The inn is in close walking distant to the main strip in Bar Harbor. So many restaurants and shopping nearby! Would definitely stay here again!
