This is the greatest B & B off the beaten path yet right on the ocean. Lovely rooms (I've stayed in most of them), the best food and service, and the kindest owners. This is my favorite place to which to escape. More

Family owned and operated. Rodny and his staff make you feel right at home. We have been coming here for 20 years and have always enjoyed the food(breakfast), people, accommodations and the relaxed atmosphere. Make your reservations early for prime season, you'll be glad you did. More

Frustrated by staying at Highway Chains, i awoke one morning and drove to water. Found Higgins Beach-perhaps the most beautiful beach I have ever seen-and walked into this beachfront 120 year old property to discover one room had become available 15 mins earlier. The smallest worst room at the inn and we loved it. A grand old 14 bedroom all... More

My husband and I have a 6 month old daughter, and with her being our first child we decided we wanted to start a new family tradition of going to Maine every summer. Last summer, while still pregnant, we walked Higgins Beach and looked up at The Breakers Inn's tower and thought to ourselves "Wouldn't it be nice to stay... More

My wife and I live inland and try to get one night in every year at the Breakers during the shoulder season. We time our trip when there is swell to surf Higgin's beach, right in front of the Hotel. This works especially well to take advantage of morning and evening surf sessions as Higgin's is closed to surfing from... More

We stayed here over the holiday break to visit family and friends in Maine. The Breakers Inn is the epitome of a bed and breakfast. Planted right on the coast of Higgin's Beach, the minute you step outside you are treated to the sounds and sights of the ocean. The calming sounds of waves crashing and birds soaring added to...

We have stayed here several times as it is about the only inn-hotel that is located at Higgins beach in Scarborough Maine. It is an old charming inn that sits on the main road overlooking the beach. It has the ideal location for proximity to the beach----beautiful grounds where you can just relax and enjoy the view if you wish... More

I took my wife to stay at Higgins Beach for our 1 year anniversary (we got married down the road a piece in Cape Elizabeth). We had rented a home for a week but didn't want to do that this time and found The Breakers Inn. I will say that the Inn is beautiful but the rooms are oddly situated... More
