The room was great! And the breakfast was delicious. We walked to the local general store and got snacks and chilled by the water for hours. Very relaxing
We arrived and immediately were very happy. The views were amazing of the harbor. The Inn was lovely. We had a nice meal, and slept great. The sunrise was beautiful. All around magical place. We will be back!
Another wonderful stay a this lovely location. Rooms are plain and functional with a great view of the harbor. Clean and neat place with an excellent bistro.
The inn was charming and the staff warm, friendly and helpful. The included breakfast was satisfying in a dining room overlooking an iconic Maine harbor. We wished we could have stayed more than one night.
There were no refrigerator in room ,no coffee pot..the carpeting was sooo dirty it smelled horrific..the windows? Wow a room with a view? They were soo filthy you couldn't see out..I thought we were staying in one place, got moved to different building the one that smelled horrific..all in all..I wouldn't recommend it
The Inn’s service is top notch. They upgraded my room and my pup and I settled into a corner room with a king bed and water view. Dinner at the Inn was delicious and service was fast and efficient with the server providing excellent recommendations.
Pros: nice setting and grounds, clean & quiet room, good breakfast, good people, bagged ice to go.
Cons: not much, but the room could use an update of electrical outlets.

We loved the location! Room could have been cleaner and there was a small child above us who you could hear crying and running back and forth. The restaurant was phenomenal - would go back again for location and restaurant.
The Inn is picturesque and the staff were absolutely lovely. We enjoyed evenings by the campfire, and the breakfasts were really good. Our room was very clean and comfortable. The views were straight off a postcard. We hope to be back.
We've been coming here since 2010. The recent owners have improved it enormously. This trip we stayed close, ate most of our meals at the Inn and a restaurant up the road, relaxed, read, and enjoyed the view and the quiet. See you again soon. And, the fireworks on July 4th was a bonus!

Spectaculars! Wow! And breakfast and
Dinner - super!! Our first stay was 25 years
Ago for a friends Maine wedding!
The rooms we rented need help! Our bed and rug
Ugh! Needed replacing but we’ll try again next year! Love this locale!
East Wind Inn is located on a quiet and beautiful seaside location, and we had a great time for three days! Not only did we enjoyed the morning and evening views of the Tenants Harbor, but we also savored the delicious meals at Harborview Bistro & Quarry Tavern, both amazing restaurants, that served equally delicious food.
Travelling with our pet friend usually presents challenges to our choices, but the East Wind Inn provided us with an unexpectedly and comfortable of stay. The wrap-around porch at the Captain’s House, in particular, allowed us to enjoy breakfast in the morning while watching the seafood trade activities from the deck next door.
The staffs are friendly and helpful, and we were given a welcome treat of blueberry cookie and lemonade upon check-in.
We had a wonderful stay at the Inn!
To begin with, the Harbor itself is absolutely charming and stunningly beautiful !! My wife and I chose this location because it was off the beaten path, but still in a great location to explore the whole area. The Inn and its rooms are charming and well kept, and the Lookout Living Room was a great gathering place for friends and guests to hang out and relax...
Now... We will talk about the Food... The Harbor and the Inn alone are reason to stay here, but the Dinning Experience at the East Wind was...Extraordinary !!
Until our recent stay at the East Wind, my most favorite meal ever...was a Lobster Carbonara on 7th Ave. in Manhattan...Then I had two dinners in a row surpass that here in the Dinning Room of the East Wind!
We experienced something rare and very special during our stay at the East Wind... Thanx to all the staff, you guys are amazing !!
I just loved everything about this hotel. From the start the staff helped me with a delayed flight and getting my keys to room. Very pleasant. My room was a king bed nice bathroom and mattress very comfortable. Very quiet hotel. They have a community room with a Frig. and Microwave. Huge wrap around porch with waterfront views with rocking chairs to have my coffee each AM (free) Also complimentary is a breakfast off a menu that was amazing. Things get quiet around 9:00-10:00 PM, only small complaint - we played cards and were quiet however someone kept letting us know we were loud by stomping on floor above community room. We were having fun which is what a vacation is for, nothing crazy as we are in 60-70's. & my kids are adults. All else was perfect! A general store is right up the hill across street that literally has anything you need. And a bar with food about 5-6 blocks called Happy Clam- food amazing. We will for sure be back to the hotel & bar!
The inn is located on a true working harbor. Many boats were in the harbor and it was breathtaking to view them from the inn’s porch. The food was delicious!
Wonderful waterfront view.Staff was friendly,helpful.The breakfast was delicious and nicely done.
Shower water was a bit slow to warm up,but it's an old building..no problem. Looking forward to returning.
