I called here on a Friday afternoon praying they had an opening for the following date, and low in behold they DID. This is an amazing thing considering that Maine is packed with weddings all summer long. The girl who helped me was GREAT; held the reservation for 1 hour while I confirmed all the details on my end and was able to do half the price over the phone and the other half upon arrival. The good: +minutes walking to the beach +nice, friendly staff at the dining room and also at the front desk +free coffee +cute, little bedrooms and they have FANS for the summer. +quiet (unless there is a giant wedding which in our case there was, but they were not terribly loud at night at all) The bad: -expensive. for 1 night we paid 200 dollars. that is a lot considering an Air B and B that was just as nice in Portland the night before was just 95 dollars. -NO FREE BREAKFAST. What part of BED and BREAKFAST means no breakfast? This is the major down fall of this place. And their prices for breakfast are not even cheap really and the dining room area isn't that nice. -The woman managing the place who was ordering around some of the wait staff was sort of an unprofessional bitch (older lady with dark, short hair)... I felt like she could be nicer to the staff in front of the people staying there. A little crazy how rude she was... Highly recommend otherwise, the beach is stunning and so close to walk to it is for sure the high light of this place.

My husband, sister and her two teenagers (were visiting from Canada) went to the inn for breakfast on Sunday, it was by far not busy or pack, they had a full staff in duty that appear to stand around talking verses getting your order ready, asking if you need more water or coffee. The food good about an hour to be served, thats a little exssesive for eggs and homefries. The food offered no original flavor or really anything to rave about to say the least. We should taken the family to the Ms Portland dinner or Becky's. The onlybthing the inn has going for it is its the only place really in the area when your staying on the Beach. Great tourist trap for those like over priced medoker bland food.

You would be hard pressed to find worse service, or more overpriced and mediocre food. The food is straightforward, bland, and unappetizing. The location is great, though, so my wife and I took our kids there after a day at Higgins beach. We ordered some kids food, which came out immediately. But our dinners (fish tacos, a chicken dish) took over an hour to come out. During that hour, the wait staff kept saying the food was coming out in one minute. Keep in mind that we were managing young children who had already eaten and were just sitting there for an hour. The manager was just standing there during this disaster, and never came by to apologize or smooth things out. I'm not the kind of person who complains about service much, but this was about as bad as it gets. There is basically nothing good about this place other than proximity to the beach. I'd recommend you get takeout from the market up the street or head down the road to Spurwink Country Kitchen.

I stayed there for a wedding and was hugely disappointed. We had arranged to get into a room early, but were unable to do so. When we later complained, the owner said he would have been happy to get us another room. He offered no such thing even after the importance of getting into a room prior to the wedding was made abundantly clear. After waiting for three hours (two hours after check out time!) we were finally able to get into a room. It created a great deal of stress before an important day for us. We will never return. The rooms are clean. The door did not close properly. They leave the front door open all night, which is also concerning.

My friend and I had a fabulous stay at the Higgins Beach Inn in June 2015 while road tripping to Maine. We were looking for the perfect getaway from our busy lives in big cities and the Inn provided just that - both in location and in excellent customer service. The overall appearance of the Inn and room was nice, clean, and had character. The rooms were close together but I slept just fine both nights and did not hear any loud noises or slamming of doors. You can't blame the Inn for inconsiderate guests. We chose to stay in a room with a private bath, but the shared bathrooms also looked nice and clean. The shower had good water pressure. They do not have air conditioning, but the weather was cooler than expected so it wasn't a big issue at all (they also had fans in the room). We loaded up on breakfast at the Garofalo's Restaurant on the outside patio one morning before kayaking, and dinner one evening - great food just steps away from our room! Their bar is small but a good place to grab drinks, especially since there is only one market within walking distance that sells beer/wine and closed earlier than the Inn's bar. Now don't expect this bar to be open too late since this is an Inn and there are people trying to rest. Overall, we enjoyed it so much that we plan to make this an annual retreat. This place truly is a hidden gem. Before you book, do your research and determine what you are looking for in your vacation- a full service amenities loaded hotel or a cute quaint inn with old world charm.

We came upon this place while road tripping through New England. It was off season so it was pretty quiet but it was just what we were looking for. No TV in the rooms & you have the option for a communal bathroom or a rm with its own bathroom. The owner was extremely friendly & helpful & he was so nice to our 18 month old son. Breakfast is included in your stay & they made the best blueberry pancakes I've ever had. we requested them for breakfast the next morning too & he was happy to oblige. The inn is a block away from the ocean & a nice clean beach although the way the inn is positioned you won't have a view of the ocean from your room. Scarborough is a great little town & only 15 min drive from downtown Portland. We will be going back!

Nice old Building. Very quaint. Close to the beach. Could be very romantic. Rooms are small and old but nice. Bathrooms are small. Some rooms only have shared bathrooms so make sure you know what you are getting. No tv's in the room and no A/C, so if it's hot you will not be pleased. Fan's are in each room which is nice. The restaurant wasn't open for dinner. There are no bars or restaurants that are even close.

Open since 1897. I recommend this for a romantic getaway or family vacation. Very beautiful area with lots to see and do. I am here on business and ended up here by chance. This is definitely a family friendly environment and there is a fine Italian restaurant and bar on the ground floor. I doubt there is a bad choice on the menu. No tv in the rooms is a nice break from the monotony of business grind travel. Lots of healthy organic eateries and local farms in the area. There is a huge health conscious vibe to the area with tons of joggers, surfers and bicyclists.
