My husband and I stayed Fall 2012 for one week. The motel is clean, the location is near several very nice trails and the owners were terrific. We were so happy we stayed on the Southwest side of Acadia and avoided the congestion in Bar Harbor. We would definitely stay here again.

At the Seawall motel you'll find a nice clean room with lovely views over both the Atlantic ocean (other side of the road) and a freshwater lake! The hosts are very welcoming and can tell you a lot abouth their Island and the specific habitats surrounding the motel. Birdwatchersplace!

Clean, Hospitable, and located on the quite side of the island. Not only great value for the money, but simply great. I stayed at the Seawall motel during a break from my business trip, I chose the hotel based on =the so many good reviews and I was not disappointed. Breakfast is basic and good, my room was very clean... More

We stayed at the Seawall in October this year when we came out east to see the fall colors. We were so pleased with our choice of the Seawall. The motel was clean and quiet, and it was clear that the owners took great pride in running a wonderful establishment. The breakfast was generous and guests liked to linger over... More

Our stay at the Seawall Motel was exactly what we were looking for when we scheduled our getaway to Maine. Our room was very clean, quiet, and comfortable. We met several guests who have stayed at Seawall multiple times over the years. The friendly gathering at breakfast was a delightful way to start your day in Acadia. Both the motel... More

Great location just outside the Park, nice clean rooms, friendly owner operated, good prices and away from the crowds! If that is what you are looking for then the Seawall Motel fits the bill. Very basic breakfast is also provided.

We had a fantastic stay at the Seawall Motel. We are a family of 5, and the room was spacious, even with a roll away cot. The breakfast every morning is hearty and fueled us for hiking and biking in Acadia. The owner lent us his trail map and gave us great advice. The drive, even to the other side... More

My husband and I spent the week of September 24th at the Seawall Motel. We chose the Seawall based on a glowing review in Frommers (which mentioned the resident feline, Speedbump - that sealed the deal!) Very simple accommodations but that's all we needed after full days of hiking. The rooms are surprisingly spacious and spotless. Dave and Vicki (the... More

My husband and I recently spent several days at the Seawall Motel. My sister and her husband had stayed there three times and recommended it. We enjoyed staying on the "quiet side" of Mt. Desert Island, yet it was an easy drive to numerous hiking trails, and the view of the ocean from the motel was wonderful. You could leave... More
