“First class experience”

1830 Admiral's Quarters Inn

Jul 17, 2008

Just returned form our stay at the Admirals Quarters, Boothbay - can't recommend it highly enough! Bev, Jeff and Metro gave our family of 4, including 2 teenagers a warm welcome. We enjoyed an excellent standard of accomodation in our twin double rooms, which were ideally suited to a family. The guest facilities are of a high standard and we were made to feel very comfortable. The inn far exceeded our expectations and it will certainly be on our list to return to.

We stayed here one night on our way to New Hampshire. The inn is older and will need some updating before long but it was a great stay. The staff and owners were fabulous. The accommodations were nice and had an excellent view of the harbor. Everything was within walking distance and the breakfast was superb. I would stay here again.

Date: Sept. 19-22, 2007... This bed and breakfast had a GREAT location in Boothbay Harbor. The host Les and Deb were very nice. The breakfast was your usual "bed and breakfast" style breakfast.. The eggs were in some type of casserole and everything was made to heat up in the oven...Sometimes they try too hard to make things fancy..just keep it simple. We were staying in the Admiral's suite for the first three days which was great and had fantastic views of the harbor, but because the Admiral's suite was already booked we had to move to the Quarter Deck suite on the last night. This room was not as nice.. It smelled of moth balls and there was mold growing in the shower stall. At $185 per night this room was very overpriced, had no view at all , and was located next to the lobby which was very noisy. I would stay again in the Admiral's Suite, but pass on the Quarter Deck Suite.

We just happened upon this B&B before the start of their "season" and we couldn't have been happier. The hosts (Les & Deb) made us feel right at home, giving us useful information and making sure we had a wonderful stay in Booth Bay Harbor. The room that we stayed in (the Lilac room-#7) was quaint, and immaculate with a beautiful view of the harbor. This 2nd floor room had a slider, full bath, and gas fireplace (as well as a/c for summer guests). The best thing was the breakfast-it was absolutely wonderful with home made pastries, bread, oatmeal (again, all home made) and then a hot entree for the morning-ours was a vegetable quiche with a side of ham & pineapple if desired. They have a wonderful solarium as well as a front porch fully equipped with everything that you might need-and did I mention the afternoon pastries? Again, home made. Our only regret was that we could only stay one night. We will certainly go back and stay at this wonderful B&B.

“Fantastic Place to Stay!!”

1830 Admiral's Quarters Inn

Oct 17, 2006
2/2 found this review helpful

We just returned from a 4 night stay at this wonderful inn and we wished we could have stayed longer!! The location is excellent, you can walk all over Boothbay Harbor. The view from the top floor is beyond belief, the owner (Les) and all of his staff are very special people and this is just the best place we have ever stayed!! We loved watching the lobster boats in the harbor from our window and from the deck. You can see THREE lighthouses blinking from Room #4 and the sunrise is spectacular!! The fireplace helped to keep our room toasty in the evening. Breakfasts are unique, delicious and "presented" to you each morning in a beautiful sunny solarium.....there is a buffet, and an entree and even a dessert each morning!! Treat yourself special and stay here :)!! We loved it and will go back!!
