Bar Harbor Inn And Spa - A historic oceanfront hotel with infinity pool, luxury spa, and panoramic views of Frenchman Bay

The property features 50 renovated luxury rooms in the Main Inn, plus additional accommodations offering garden, grounds, or ocean views. Two restaurants provide waterfront dining: the fine-dining Reading Room and casual Terrace Grille, complemented by a cocktail lounge dating to 1887.
