The property was fine. However we extended our reservation and the desk agent didn't ask for a credit card at the time. Instead he called our room at midnight back to back until he woke us up to ask for a credit card. He woke up the entire family and still continues to ask me for a cc. I told the manager at check out and she could care less, she did take off $25. Very unnecessary they had a card on file, we had been there 3 nights.

Fabulous

Fabulous accommodations. Nice pool and pool ocean views are spectacular. The only downside was there is only one set of elevators to get up and down the 3 floors. It is located in the center of the long hotel which was only a problem during check in with luggage too heavy to carry up the stairs. Otherwise the stairs were not bad.

Terrific Stay at Holiday Inn Resort - Bar Harbor

Wonderful stay in Bar Harbor!

This hotel exceeded my expectations. Our bathroom was much more updated than what was in the photos on hotels.com and the rooms were adorably decorated as well as the rest of the hotel. Water pressure in the shower was amazing. The grounds were beautiful and the pool on the water was delightful. The on site eateries were an added convenience. Staff was also amazing towards my two dogs even after a sunlight mix up when checking them in, upon finding out about our dogs we came back to our room to find a sweet doggy goodie bag hanging from our door including treats, a blanket and a collapsable dog bowl for us! The only odd thing was I definitely thought we had booked our rooms for less when we made the reservation through hotels.com so upon check out I had to re-check, and I still feel like something changed bc I didn’t remember us deciding to pay as much as we did, but in the words of my husband “oh well the place was great”

This is a beautiful hotel. The pool/hot tub area with a sea view was one of the nicest I’ve ever seen, and the pool was comfortably heated on a somewhat chilly September day (and I’m picky about that—same goes for the hot tub temp, too). The room was immaculate. It seemed recently updated and had the amenities we wanted (not-so-mini fridge, lots of bedside phone charging ports, excellent shower …). I highly recommend this resort.
