What guests think

At Cape Arundel Inn and Resort, guests consistently celebrate the stunning oceanfront setting and sweeping views, along with friendly, attentive service and a charming, relaxing atmosphere across the inn, cottages, and bungalows.

Many enjoy relaxing on the front porch and using amenities like the pool, clubhouse, and complimentary bikes. Ocean, the on-site restaurant, draws frequent praise for breakfast and dinner, including the wine selection. There are a couple of isolated notes about compact bathrooms and minor exterior wear in places, but no consistent shortcomings emerge. Expect a relaxed, well serviced coastal retreat ideal for oceanfront downtime.

The property was very comfortable and the view of the water was amazing. The two detractions were the many flys on the front porch and the size of the bathroom and shower. Otherwise very good and would return

Incredible, charming property right on the shore. My wife and I spent our first few hours at the hotel just sitting on the porch, reading, and enjoying the view. Very helpful and friendly staff, great amenities. Would love to come back in the summer sometime.

How very quaint! A wonderful overnight stay at this very charming oceanfront inn. We were welcomed with a glass of prosecco and a cheese and fruit offering. Our room was perfectly comfortable. Breakfast was also included in our stay ~ the dining area was to die for with full view of the ocean. A must return for a longer stay!

B&B needs to implement some small things that could have made the stay much better. 1. Coffee in the mornings - they want you to sit down and eat at the B&B but a ton of folks go into town for coffee. A simple coffee station with to go cups would be a nice touch. (Especially at this price point). 2. Lunch Menu - very small, must go up by the pool to order. Unimpressed by the menu. They could add some small grab and go bites. 3. They have bikes on property - which are great!

Everything was superb. Janette (Housekeeper) was so helpful, thoughtful and sweet. Both of the Front Desk staff were also helpful and friendly. Our Breakfast waitress was also nice and accommodating, as we requested to have breakfast on the front porch. One thing to consider would be to freshen up the exterior siding facing the cottages ( above the Ocean restaurant). It was noticeable and unattractive when sitting on the porch (Cottage Room #23). Otherwise it was sterling!
