The Inn is beautiful -with an awesome view and easy access to downtown Bar Harbor - and very close to Acadia National Park.

Our room was beautiful and comfortable.

Property is a unique Victorian house just about 1/2 mile from center of Bar Harbor. Beautiful view out to sea. Hosts were very friendly and breakfast super, cooked to order. Usual issues with old house-long flight of narrow steps to top floors. Some issues with the hot water supply which were being worked on. Overall a great place for our first stay in town.

This was a wonderful bed-and-breakfast. Plenty of free parking and a stunning waterfront view from our room. Kristi and Matt were amazing hosts and our breakfasts were delicious each morning. They were super friendly and helpful. Very easy to walk to all of the neighborhood restaurants and shopping. A quick 5 to 10 minute drive up Cadillac Mountian for a stunning view. We would love to return when we have time for a longer visit and would most definitely stay here again.

We LOVED this inn. It's a perfect location--right on the Bay, free parking, and a very close walk to restaurants and shopping. The house is beautiful--the rooms are comfortable, quiet, clean, etc. Breakfast was wonderful--sitting on the deck and having them bring a fresh made meal to you. We will definitely come back again.

We had not visited Bar Harbor before, but found the Saltair Inn and booked it due to all of the great reviews, its waterfront location, and proximity to town. We were simply blown away upon our arrival and during the course of our 4th of July weekend stay.

The views are simply outstanding and the photos do not do it justice. The extensive patio area is cool and comfortable and the lawn seating areas are a perfect place to enjoy a glass of wine and take in the breath-taking water views!

The service was exceptional and Leigh was so friendly, informative, and helpful throughout our stay. Matt’s breakfasts were unique as well as delicious, and worth a repeat stay on their own!

There was ample parking and it is just a few blocks to all of Bar Harbor’s main attractions and restaurants, including Bar Island.

We would not hesitate to return here for a repeat stay. The Saltair Inn is truly a hidden gem! Thank you, Leigh and Matt, for making our stay so enjoyable and to the owners, Kristie and Matt for sharing your beautiful Inn.

Great Bar Harbor B&B

This is an awesome B&B in a great location, away from all the main crowds of Bar Harbor, but close enough you can walk to everything. The hosts are great and helpful with suggestions of fun things to do and places to eat. I can see why it is always booked out and hard to get a room here. My only criticism, if you are a big guy like me or have a hard time getting around, maybe don't get a room on the third floor, the stairs make it a tight fit getting up there. The room itself, the Cadillac room, was amazing, getting up there was an adventure though (haha)

The house is exquisite - the location, grand…but specifically our master suite?! Jaw dropping! Comfortable king sized bed, full sized fire place with mantle, sitting room with a comfortable couch, and tv- a small Benjamin Franklin type stove/fireplace- and windows that spread out the incredible view of Frenchman’s bay…and the bathroom?!! Standing tub- with jacuzzi jets! A cascade waterfall shower, and HEATED flooring! I loved this suite so much! But everything about the Saltair Inn? From the MAGNIFICENT breakfast , to the ice maker, made us feel special and our vacation from reality, affirmed.

Great location with beautiful views

Kristi and Matt (the owners) were kind and welcoming, and make a great breakfast! The rooms are comfortable, and the back porch has been recently renovated so there are plenty of tables to eat breakfast outside. The Inn is an easy walk to downtown and has a phenomenal view of the water with a large lawn to sit and enjoy a glass of wine as the sun sets. We really enjoyed our stay and would absolutely book again if we return to Bar Harbor.
