My wife and I made a late decision to visit MDI and we didn't want the hustle and bustle of Bar Harbor, so like everyone I hit the Internet to see if anything was available. The Inn at Southwest only had openings for 3 nights mid-week, so we took what was available. We wish we could have strapped a month. Sandy and Ester made us feel at home from the minute we walked in the door. Our room and the Inn was clean, and well appointed with many antiques from the Far East. T breakfasts were eual to any 5star resort and my wife is still raving about the blueberry pancakes that were "the best she ever ate"...and we are from Maine, so that is saying quite a lot. Ester and Sandy were extremely friendly and couldn't do enough to help us with local advice to making dinner reservations. We can't wait to go back next year.

A very relaxed atmosphere. When we travel, we try to stay at B&B's. The Inn at Southwest Harbor hit the mark. It felt like home away from home but with a better breakfast! The rooms were very clean and comfortable. Sandy and Esther were very helpful and suggested great places to eat and visit, yet were not intrusive into our privacy. Centrally located, it was a great spot to tour Acadia from.

The owners have done a wonderful job of assembling very classy art, objects, furniture, without the fussy, faux victorian look of many B & B's. Rooms are nice, breakfast is superb! Located short walk from great dining.

Quiet, clean, comfortable room in a peaceful setting

Sandy was great at suggesting great places to eat!

Great choice for a place to stay and visit Bar Harbor and Acadia park!
