Castine Vacations from $845

Excellent hotel Fabulous food Lovely setting

Planning future trips

No TVs, no alarm clocks, no microwaves, no mini fridge = No superfluous stuff cluttering up the room with noise and light! Light, in fact, was my only real issue because it's an old inn and the door to our room had a gap at the top so when the motion sensor hall light came on (and stayed on for a long time) after anyone came upstairs, it was pretty bright. However, I pack a sleep mask because most places have an obnoxious amount of tech-related lights, so not a big deal. Still, this was by far the coziest, quietest, comfiest place we've stayed maybe ever. LOVED the spectacular view from our room (St George) and from the dining area. REALLY LOVED that we could walk across the causeway and take in the surroundings/stretch our legs without needing a car. Came at the wrong time of year to have dinner there, but greatly appreciated that the website and room guides listed lots of other options (mostly in Rockland, which is an easy trip with other fun stops along the way.) Breakfast was lovely. I've never liked grits in my life, but lemon and thyme do something magical for them. And the Craignair did something magical for us. I miss it already! THANK YOU!!

Nice rooms and beds but not room darkening curtains so it was daylight in the room at 4:00 am. This should be rectified.

The suite was clean, the staff was friendly, we didn't eat breakfast. We had a private balcony which was very nice and peaceful. There was a pool which looked very nice which we didn't use weather was still a bit chilly.
