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.

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.
