Black Point Inn
"Why did this hotel catch your attention? What's the vibe?One of Maine’s original luxury waterfront inns, The Black Point Inn has been newly renovated and updated, but still retains its old-world New England charm, making it a popular destination for both locals and tourists alike. Tell us all about the accommodations. Any tips on what to book?Rooms are spacious, with plush furnishings and charming New England décor. If you want the full waterfront inn experience book one of the Commodores Chambers, which comes with views of the ocean. Drinking and dining—what are we looking at?There are two restaurants: the Chart Room and The Point. The Chart Room has your general New England bar and grill offerings like shrimp cocktail, lobster rolls, and burgers. The Point is a more intimate and formal experience with refined cuisine and an extensive wine list. How was the service? Professional and efficient. Any other hotel features worth noting?There's a geothermal heated pool, fitness room, bikes, kayaks and yoga classes (held out on the lawn). For even more relaxation you can also get an in-room massage. Bottom line: Worth it? Why?This is a pricey hotel—especially when you include dining—but the setting is simply second-to-none." - Joe Ricchio
