My family recently finished our fourteenth consecutive relaxing year at this wonderful resort. We were first at Ocean Gate in 1995 and since then have spent two weeks there every August. Our accommodations have always been immaculate, well furnished (albeit in a late sixties style; we have not been in one of the renovated accommodations) with prompt and meticulous housekeeping.... more

We just spent Labor Day weekend at Ocean Gate Resort and have nothing but wonderful things to stay. The resort is very well kept with an exceptional location. The breakfasts were heardy and delicious, while dining outside in the pavilion every morning was a wonderful treat. The complimentary kyaks for cruising the bays were fantastic, offering us a wonderful new... more

We just returned from 6 nights in a waterfront (ocean bay) room right at the water's edge. This resort is located on an island about a 5 minute drive from Boothbay Harbor and offers a selection of accommodations in a number of buildings, including cottages. Our second-floor room (stairs, no elevator) was spacious and clean. It had a small fridge,... more

We liked everything about the place. Staff were excellent and service-oriented. Location beautiful. Breakfast very good (and nice have proper plates and cutlery instead of disposables). Kayaks were included and life-jackets supplied. We stayen in an oceanfront room. Room was nice. View fantastic. Pity it does not face sunrise or sunset. Cleanliness superb. We would definitely come here again and... more

What a beautiful place. There's a comfy (rustic) feeling outside and a stunning hotel room feeling on the inside of the motel. The breakfast is wonderful. The staff members are classy. There's a lot to do on the property. The patrons are quiet and mindful of others. We were all very happy. We'll be back! more

This was a great resort for kids. We played miniture golf many times, and we loved the pool. We also kayaked! The location is beautiful and the grounds are kept very nice. The "fitness center" is a rusty joke. The breakfast pavilion is very nice, but I didn't like the breakfast at all. The coffee was awful, and the food... more

Took advice from Trip advisor and booked this for a nights stay on our tour of NEw england. Can't fault the staff who were exceedingly helpful and friendly and breakfast was ok, ample but not very exciting. Our room was an overlook suite on the 2nd floor and had a fabulous view over the water. Easy to park right by... more

If you are looking for a posh, luxurious or trendy Maine Experience (and we weren't), you should look elsewhere. The Ocean Gate offers clean, comfortable, family friendly lodging in a natural and rustic setting. As stated in the previous review, the buildings are set into the Maine coastline and are surrounded by the native trees and flowers and the large... more

On our second visit, we love this resort yet again. What is not to like? The staff are resourceful and responsive. The amenities are fine for those seeking a Maine restfulness with a beautiful, timeless view. We have nothing but praise for this well-run, established inn. more
