I had a great experience at the hotel, especially enjoying the beautiful views and friendly service. The dining options were decent, but some aspects could use improvement. The location was convenient, and the pool area was a fantastic spot to relax. However, the check-in process could be more efficient, as it seemed they were overbooked.

My family and I had an incredible stay at this hotel, enjoying beautiful views and a fantastic on-site pool. The staff was attentive and friendly, making our experience truly enjoyable. However, the dining options could use more variety, especially during lunch hours, and some aspects of the room needed updating. Overall, it was a memorable vacation, but there are areas that could be improved.

Our stay at the Holiday Inn Bar Harbor Regency was quite enjoyable, especially with the beautiful ocean views and attractive grounds. The spacious king bed room was comfortable, although the mini-fridge placement was a bit inconvenient. While we didn't utilize many amenities, the efficient service and welcoming staff added to a relaxed atmosphere. The road noise from the highway side room was noticeable, so considering an oceanfront option could be worthwhile for a quieter experience.
