"Home of Seagulls"

We had a lovely time. The room was great with an amazing view of Casco Bay and we loved watching the seagulls gliding across the sky. Very friendly staff who were professional and accommodating. A special thank you to staff: Jose, the maintenance person who promptly came to our room when needed, Halsey and Doug, our great shuttle drivers as well as the front desk and restaurant staff.
