Our room was beyond-belief good! We had a triple and it was HUGE, with gorgeous views of the ocean. Breakfast was nice every morning. It was a pleasure dealing with the staff as well. Would definitely return and recommend it to my friends. More

My dog breed club held our biggest show of the year there this October and it was one of the best shows I've been to in large part because of the amazing hospitality of the hotel. The staff was helpful and enthusiastic and the room was charming. They gave us great advice about area restaurants and activities. They were exceptionally... More

We stayed at The Colony for a week long event/vacation and loved everything about the hotel! The staff was wonderful from the GM to the wait staff. The charm of the hotel and the gorgeous setting surpassed my expectations! Our room was very comfortable and clean and it was nice staying in one of the ones without a TV! The... More

I took part in a group event (dog show) that took place at The Colony. The staff couldn't have been nicer or more accommodating! The hotel was beautiful and comfortable. We ate a number of our meals there, and a wonderful buffet breakfast was included with the price of our room. I loved being able to open the windows of... More

Always wanted to stay here! Had a lovely room with beautiful view. Not as pricey as I thought it would be. Terrific employees. First class all the way. Delightful breakfast included in price in a classic dining area with music from the 40s, which is very appropriate. Great sleep on a comfy mattress. No TV in room made us want... More

We spent a night and day here in August and thoroughly enjoyed it. The grounds are beautiful with just a little street between it and the Maine coast. The room was small but nicely decorated with an old Inn feel. The breakfast was included with a nice selection of items. It is in their restaurant with views of the grounds... More

My husband, puppy and I stayed at the Colony in September. We were pleasantly surprised! I thought, from looking online, that it might be dilapidated or gross from allowing dogs. This hotel has the look of a beautiful private estate, out of "Gone with the Wind" style. The rooms are white and immaculate. The view is one of the best.... More
