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

The end is beautiful, the views are amazing, in our room was extremely clean and beautifully decorated. We had a gourmet cooked breakfast every morning on the porch overlooking the water. He innkeepers are very nice people and go out of their way to accommodate everyone. I have a gluten allergy and my breakfast was gluten-free every morning. The end is far enough away from Bar Harbor to get away from the hustle and bustle and close enough to be a part of it if you choose. We would definitely stay here again. This is quite the private getaway.

The Acadia Bay Inn was beautiful both inside and out. The view was spectacular. The food was fabulous. It was the perfect place to disconnect and relax…but also close enough to Bar Harbor and other places when you wanted to do something. This is the first time we have ever stayed in a B&B. It was just as we hoped! Thank you Nicole and Matt.

This was our first bed and breakfast. This was a great experience. It is about 40 minutes from Bar Harbor. But it was nice to get away from the tourist trap and sit on the porch looking at the bay. I wouldn’t be surprised if we made another trip here.

The Acadia Bay Inn was beautiful both inside and out. The view was spectacular. The food was fabulous. It was the perfect place to disconnect and relax…but also close enough to Bar Harbor and other places when you wanted to do something. This is the first time we have ever stayed in a B&B. It was just as we hoped! Thank you Nicole and Matt.

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.

This was our first bed and breakfast. This was a great experience. It is about 40 minutes from Bar Harbor. But it was nice to get away from the tourist trap and sit on the porch looking at the bay. I wouldn’t be surprised if we made another trip here.

Beautiful Inn and location. View was awesome. Breakfast was delicious. Would definitely stay again if in the area. Make sure to visit tidal falls at high and low tide, very close to the inn. Host did give us some suggestions to visit that were beautiful.

What an amazing view! The hosts were very helpful with local suggestions and we had an wonderful time. The breakfast was awesome and the view from the back porch is a bonus! The home is a treasure from the 1800's. We would highly recommend this inn when staying in the Acadia area!

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!!

My partner and I had a wonderful stay at this charming place. The location is perfect, and the hosts were incredibly friendly and welcoming. The breakfast was delicious, and the homemade cookies were a delightful treat. The room was spotless, as was the entire house, making our stay very comfortable. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to others.

Our recent visit to the Acadia Bay Inn on our annual Anniversary trip was an awesome experience! Matt and Nicole were such great hosts! The breakfasts were 5 star! 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!

Matt and Nicole were the perfect hosts, providing a fantastic full breakfast every morning and great travel and sightseeing advice. The property is beautifully kept with breathtaking views overlooking Acadia Bay and Cadillac mountain. The perfect “down east Maine” getaway! And we feel as if we now have two friends we didn’t have before. The best!

Nicole and Matt were wonderful hosts with a very nice property. Breakfast each day was different and excellently prepared. They gave great guidance on spots to stop along our route each day that we wouldn’t have found on our own (both great restaurants and great sights).
