Fryeburg Vacation Packages

The area around the property was excellent. It was safe and very walkable. There were plenty of dining options nearby. But they didn't clean the room on the second day. Thank you,

This property was beyond expectation. As long as you are comfortable using the app, check in was super easy and so was getting into our suite. The kitchen had everything we could have possibly needed, and having a living space was a great lift from a normal hotel room.

We chose Inn by the Sea because it was advertised as a “pet-friendly” property with beach access for pets, which was a key factor in our decision. Unfortunately, our experience didn’t quite align with those expectations. We arrived on a Sunday around noon and, as expected, our room wasn’t ready (check-in is at 4:00pm). However, unlike many hotels, we were not offered anything while we waited — no welcome drink, light refreshment, or even an early check-in estimate — despite having to wait the full four hours. Once we checked in, we were told our assigned room was not pet-friendly, and we would be charged for any accidents — despite booking under the premise that this was a pet-friendly stay. Additionally, the restaurant only allows pets in the outdoor seating area, and the pool area is not pet-friendly at all. So while the hotel does accommodate pets in some areas, it’s misleading to call it fully pet-friendly when the main guest amenities are off-limits. That said, the property is beautiful and most of the staff were friendly and professional, which we appreciated. But overall, if you’re traveling with a pet and hoping for a truly integrated experience, this may not be the best fit.

The decor and private garden were nice, as was the self-service pantry on the 2nd floor. The destination fee was a little annoying on top of the proxy room rate, as the credit for the bar was not useful for one member of our party who does not drink. Very convenient to Old Port.

The Portland Regency hotel and spa was a great hotel for our family needs. We were able to stay close together and get everywhere we wanted to go on foot. The staff were amazing and even though our flight was well after check out they still stored our luggage and shuttled us to the airport. My only recommendation would be to up the bathroom cleaning a bit. Since it is a historic building and a family run business I didn't expect the facilities to be perfect but the cleaning would really up the luxury level.
