We stayed at the Viewpoint for my birthday weekend. Words can really not describe the experience we had at the Viewpoint. We are world travelers, and this was one of our finest lodging experience, anywhere. You can simply not compare what is outside your door to the ambiance of the atlantic ocean and two lighthouses. Spectacular. You want New England? You found it.
Our room was the poolside 2BR suite. The suite was fully equipped and beautifully decorated. We felt at home the minute we walked through the door. On the way to check out the view from the porch, I connected my iPad to the supplied Bose Sounddock (nice touch) and were able to put a soundtrack to the amazing experience of sipping a coffee while being in awe of the beauty...within walking distance.
The suite was well suited for 4 or 4 people comfortably, but since it was only the two of us, we felt like we were staying in a home rather than a hotel suite. The kitchen was well equipped so we ended up buying our own food and cooking for ourselves whilst enjoying the environment.
The grounds were impeccably manicured with plenty of places to sit and relax and enjoy the environment. I can see why this location is sought after for weddings, it's hard to imagine a better setting.
The owners of the inn also run an oceanside restaurant called the Stones Throw where we celebrated my birthday. You simply can not visit York without experiencing this venue. The staff, presentation, ambiance and cuisine were simply out of this world. There is even a shuttle service between the Viewpoint and the Stones Throw that will take you for evening of Maine crafted beer and fine food, a real treat.
Overall, the venues, staff and experience made for an extraordinary experience. Bravo.
