10/10 Exceptional

Cozy B&B like Inn

Quaint Bed and Breakfast like inn, perfectly cozy and convenient to where we were visiting. Good value as well.
Jay, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Very helpful when I miss booked dates. Room was fine, comfortable, clean. "fireplace" was a plug in that did not work; shower door was off track. But it was also billed as a B and B. Turned out that the breakfast was a 14 min drive into Bar Harbor. And all the hosting was remote. Feel that using B and B as a descriptor is misleading.

Quiet property away from heart of Bar Harbor. Good for a one night stay. Good access to Acadia National Park and the center of Bar Harbor.

Quaint inn, self check in, you will not see the Inn owners or staff.

4/10 Fair

Room needs an update (bigger shower),and properly around the house needs to be better maintained. Breakfast is good but 15min drive is too far away.
Jan, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

While the decor and fixtures are dated the room and bathroom were clean and comfortable. Heathwood is close to Bar Harbor and Acadia - lovely 10 min drive with plenty of activity and dining options. Owners have a lovely common room with plenty of snacks. If we were staying longer for two nights I would seek out a larger, more updated option but this was a comfortable, quaint and charming two night stay for us at the end of a ten day trip.
Deidre, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Highlight of the stay is breakfast included, which is offered at a restaurant in bar harbor. Otherwise conditions of the hotel matched my expectations, i.e. not much. The room is small, old and a bit smelly, BUT it is better than my stays past years, in same price range. So the issue is not with the hotel, but with the region which lacks quality hotels for reasonable cost Set your expectations right and you will enjoy the stay.
Weidong, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Older home and slightly outdated. No breakfast on site, must drive 6 miles to a restaurant, it was good food though. They need to disclose this when you look at their website.
MARY, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We extended our stay in Bar Harbor so needed a place for 1 night. We really enjoyed the Heathwood Inn. We loved sitting out on the deck enjoying the evening. We would have had coffee out there in the morning but we didn't think to bring the chair cushions inside so they were damp! The AC unit was fairly loud and the street was somewhat busy during the night but we still slept pretty well! We had the Master room which was comfortable and clean.
Joseph, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Stayed in the Master room. Clean. Comfy bed. Coffee maker in room. Check in was easy. Check out even easier. Disappointed there was no on site breakfast, but the voucher for Everyday Joe’s was nice. I would book again. Easy to communicate with owners. Definitely made some memories there.
Lisa, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Clean and comfortable room. Staff not available and no one greeted us upon arrival although received email with directions. Pipe rattled constantly. Even at night every time water used anywhere on the property
Julie, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Not our cup of tea

We were very unhappy with the property. It is not as portrayed in Hotels.com…It is very dated in a not good way, somewhat run down. We received a text from the owner before our arrival that said breakfast would not be served but there would be a coupon on the bed for us to get breakfast in town. well that it was a disappointment as the bed and breakfast was described as having a phenomenal local foods breakfast. The text also had instructions about parking and the contactless check-in procedure. We followed the instructions went into the property and up to the room. It was musty and rundown and the mattress on the bed was so soft that we were both certain we could not sleep on it. We decided to leave and we found another place to stay in Bar Harbor. I was truly surprised at the actual state of the property versus how it appears online.

A disappointing experience at Heathwood Inn

This is not really a hotel (as the place was advertised): it's a B&B without breakfast. There's nobody on the premises. We didn't receive an email with instructions, even though I called Heathwood Inn beforehand and was told that the email is coming. There is no cell phone service in the house (it's pretty bad in the area around Bar Harbor), so I had to walk out to get the instructions on the phone. For 2 1/2 days out of the three that we stayed there, there was no Wi-Fi service (and no cell phone service). It was fixed in the evening before we were about to leave. The air conditioner in the room is so loud that you cannot use it at night. The building is set close to the highway, so at night you cannot open the window because of the noise.

Great location, close to downtown!

Everything was fine except the pillows are awful. Please invest in some new pillows. I can recommend some affordable ones if you want. The shower is tiny.
Renae, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

No staff on site. Had to drive 7 miles to breakfast. The inn is on a very loud street, so it was difficult to sleep with vehicle sounds all night.
Mariela, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice older inn, actually quite a ways from Bar Harbor, but relatively quiet and comfortable. Nice lobby with snacks, coffee and even bottled water!
Michael, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Dated but comfortable and clean

Clean room and comfortable bed. AC unit old and hard to know how to control. Furniture was dated. Outdoor lighting needs to be improved for safety walking to and from car at dark was almost treacherous - there were stones and steps and no sidewalk around to the entrance. There was a motion light that came on very late in the process. Also very hard to find the entrance to the driveway off of the main road.
Kathryn, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The room was very comfortable and quiet. The staff were very helpful with questions and everything we needed was provided. Nearby are some great restaurants on the way in to Bar Harbor. If you want to be in the thick of all things Bar Harbor though, you may want to book a place closer to the actual town. It’s not a long drive to get there from this property though.

The Acadia overnighter

Had some difficulty getting into the room. Their key instructions could be a little clearer about how to lock and unlock the to.
