My best friend and I made a supr of the moment trip to Maine when we found out our Labor Day trip to New Orleans was cancelled due to a tropical storm. We didnt know anything about Maine but we saw Boothbay Harbor on a map and saw a review of the Ship Ahoy online and decided thats were we... More

The rooms seem to not have been renovated since 1960 and the beds could be more comfortable. That's the bad news. The good/great news is that the views are about as good as it gets and the value is spectacular. They have in-season rates between $59. and $79/night depending on the view that you want to wake up to. Two... More

Very nice place on Southport Island in Maine. Love the quiet of not being right in town of Boothbay. View was beautiful and room nice and clean. More

We left one day early and did not receive a refund! The room was very musty. Luckily it was warm enough for us to keep all the windows open. The bathroom had no hand towels.

There are many motels and hotels in the area, but we've found this one meets all our needs in pricing, hospitality and cleanliness. And what a spectacular location!

We knew ahead of time there would be 2 double beds, so we brought sleeping bags for our boys to sleep on the floor. Very clean, very friendly staff, and a beautiful, refreshing pool. Would highly recommend. Can't wait... More

I called the tourism line for boothbay and they recommended the Ship Ahoy. I called for rates and was surprised by the low cost. The lady said... More

Southport is only a few miles from Boothbay Harbor and is very safe and quiet. The rooms are comfortable and clean with amazing views. You cannot beat this deal anywhere in the area! I read in a review that someone found a cockroach??? Ummmm, hello! Coast of Maine DOES NOT HAVE COCKROACHES! Any time you go into a rural area... More
