"Visit to Bar Harbor and stay at Holiday Inn Resort"

The resort is an outstanding place to stay. The views are stunning. The restaurant is excellent with tasty Italian food. The rooms are well designed and decorated; very comfortable. Location is convenient and close to the Visitor Center. Moving around from the resort to downtown, or to the visitor center, or to the Acadia park and Cadillac mountain is convenient. All staff is outstanding; cudoes to Tamara for rapid checking and answering our multiple questions with patience. We want to return to this resort. Thank you Holiday Inn Resort for making our first ever trip to Maine one to remember.
