The hotel wasn't a very clean place. It looked better in the pictures then it did for real. The location was a 5min. walk to the beach. It had a playground right outside the room and a pool. more

What a perfect time for a vacation! The owner and manager of this motel were extremely helpful and pleasant. We just loved the view and the little walkway directly to an uncrowded, beautiful beach. The room was immaculate, and the attention to detail really impressed us. Although we traveled as a couple in the autumn, we found the weather to... more

My wife and I needed a few days away and ended up at the Crest Motel in OOB. This was September 25, 26 & 27 of 2007 and we had the best beach weather (record highs) and our room (ask for 215 Ocean View) was just the best! We pop out the door, down the steps and 30 seconds later... more

The Crest Motel was right on Old Orchard Beach, a 1 minute walk from the motel to the ocean. They also have an indoor/outdoor pool, which is kept clean - just a bit heavy on the chlorine. There are 2 jacuzzi tubs also, very clean. There is also a swing set with some toys outside, this was a great feature... more

Just returned from a weekend getaway at the Crest Motel in Old Orchard Beach. For the last few years we've stayed in Kennebunkport, and I wish we'd just stuck with that tradition. I found the Crest in the Maine Official Travel Planner, and visited the website. Allowing that this is March, in Maine, I understood that there would be no... more

I found this motel on the web. The web site pictures looked really nice, so we went ahead and booked the room. We stayed during off peak season, so the price was reasonable. The motel itself is older, and not the prettiest one by any means. (Pictures and comment on their web page from previous guest are a bit deceiving!?!)... more

Before I begin, let me just say that our overall experience in Maine was very disappointing. I guess maybe we are used to the beaches down south. Upon arriving in Maine of July 24, the temperatures were in the 50's and the beaches were not nearly as clean and nice as we expected. We spent two nights at this hotel... more

This was a great hotel. We just loved the owner. The office has snacks too such as ice cream, popcorn and i believe coffee. Old Orchard is a great place to stay in the Summer. On thursdays you can enjoy a show of fireworks by the pier. And always a beautiful scenery looking at the carnival at night(the lights are... more

My family and I wanted to have an up close look at the Atlantic since we're, quite obviously, from a long way away. I made reservations at the Crest sight and review unseen. Imagine our surprise when we turned the corner and found this really cool little town and great little motel. Fifty yards to the beach and a block... more
