OGUNQUIT, MAINE | HOTELS & INNS GUIDE
Meadowmere Resort
At this family-owned hotel, amenities include multiple pools and Jacuzzis (yes, multiple), a health club and spa, an arcade, and — when you’re ready to take a break from all that relaxing — an on-site pub.

The Beachmere Inn
Can’t decide among a Victorian inn, a cottage, and contemporary motel? The Beachmere has them all – and in a primo oceanside location on the Marginal Way and within steps of restaurants and shops. Named a 2013 Yankee Editors’ Pick for “Best Something for Everyone.”
The Dunes on the Waterfront
The aptly named Dunes, a collection of housekeeping cottages and guest rooms, features 12 landscaped acres bordering an Ogunquit tidal estuary. Rowboats waiting at the dock make it a cinch to access the beach, but the Dunes’ heated pool is equally inviting. To this, add a knowledgeable, helpful staff and a location that puts downtown attractions within strolling distance. Named a 2017 Yankee Editors’ Pick for “Best Beach Retreat.”

2 Village Square Inn
Enjoy an easy walk to shops, galleries, restaurants, the beach, and the Marginal Way — that is, if you can tear yourself away from this inn’s heated pool, hot tub, and rolling ocean views. Named a 2015 Yankee Editors’ Pick for “Best Walk-to-Everything Location.”
The Admiral’s Inn
From the 27-room boutique-style White Rose hotel building to the family-friendly Terraces (hot tub! cabana bar!) to the spacious Carriage House, the Admiral’s collection of lodging options makes it a prime landing spot for any vacationer. Be sure to ask about the various restaurant packages.
