Landings Inn and Cottages - Motel in Old Orchard Beach - 29 Saco Ave, USA

We are glad we found this place! The man working the front desk was very friendly and helpful. The room was very clean, comfortable and charming. Very convenient location with a short walk to the beach and plenty of things to do nearby. We really enjoyed our stay and we'll be back again!

I recently stayed at the Landings Inn Cottages and Suites, and I couldn't have been happier with our experience. I wasn't sure what to expect because of the mixed reviews, but I was pleasantly surprised. The cute cottages were absolutely charming, and everything was sparkling clean. As a parent with a crawling baby, I appreciated how spotless the floors were. The new furniture added a fresh, modern touch to our cozy two-bedroom cottage, which featured comfortable queen beds. We found everything we needed for our stay, including cookware, towels, and other essentials. The location was perfect – just a short walking distance to the beach, park, and a variety of restaurants. We also enjoyed relaxing by the pool, which was a great bonus. Traveling with our dog was a breeze, thanks to the nearby dog park. Plus, having a Walgreens right next door was incredibly convenient for picking up water, ice cream, snacks, and even alcohol. Overall, it was a great place to stay, and I’m already thinking about returning next year.

Very short walk through the park and to the beach. The cottage was decent for a cottage. They service was great. The owner had some people leave early, who where in a bigger room. They said because we had four people the decided to upgrade us to the bigger cottage. The kids where able to have thier own room and wife and I had our own. The bathroom was a little to small to even sit on the toilet. Or shower. The rest of the place worked out well. Basically the cottage was just a place to sleep anyway. The service was great. Fair price and the free upgrade was a plus. Just a little to cramped. Would recommend if it's just two people.

My girlfriend and I just stayed here for the weekend and it was great. Easy 5-10 minute walk to the pier down through the park so the location was great. Rooms are cute and functional. Ron was so nice and accommodating. Any negative reviews must be very nit-picky because we had a great experience. We will be staying again.

We just spent the last two days in cabin 1. Our party consisted of my husband, our teenage daughter, her best friend, and me. We did some quick research and noted that the reviews were mixed, but seemed to be okay after the new management took over. Plus, we were not looking for anything fancy, just a clean and comfortable cabin (our main intention was to explore Old Orchard Beach - not stay in the room.) Firstly, I will say that the location was great, and was conveniently located near the beach, beautiful memorial park, the amusement park, etc. However, that was about the only redeeming factor! When we first arrived, the cabin looked adorable from the outside and upon checking in, a very nice gentleman greeted us and gave us a quick rundown of where the beach, stores, etc., were located, and we found this helpful. However, when we went into the cabin, we were extremely disappointed for the following reasons: 1. It is VERY small. The two bedrooms are tiny, and with the exception of a nightstand and a bed, there is no way to store your belongings or even walk around the bed itself. We had to constantly pack and unpack - there isn't even a hook or anything to hang a towel, clothing, etc. 2. The kitchenette and "living room" were filthy. The floor was dirty and the appliances were disgusting. The refrigerator had rusted racks, and the top of the stove looked as though it hadn't been properly cleaned in months. 3. The bathroom....sigh. Again, we were just looking for a clean place to shower and sleep, and were not expecting a lot. However, the bathroom was so small, that you could not sit on the toilet and fit your knees - you had to sit sideways. The bathroom sink was so small that just running water to wash your face, wash your hands, or brush your teeth resulted in water spraying EVERYWHERE. The shower had (as my husband said) an "outdoor shower" look, as it was a tiny stall with a very pronounced slope towards the drain - almost dangerous. The faucet handles were old-fashioned (okay, no big deal) and nearly impossible to turn on or off. We forgot our noise machine, but it was fine, because we listened to dripping water throughout our stay. The floor was gross, and when we put the bathmat down on the floor it was dirty on the back. 4. The beds were comfortable, but we were only given a very thin bedspread - we stopped at the nearby Walgreens and bought some beach blankets to use instead. While I was there, I picked up some cleaning supplies and cleaned the cabin that we spent almost $750.00 for (2 nights, with taxes and fees.) We don't have an issue spending the money, but we definitely expected more. Not happy, and very disappointed!

We just spent the weekend here in one of their 2-bedroom cottages and we were extremely disappointed. Not only was the cottage SIGNIFICANTLY smaller than we had anticipated (there is absolutely NO WAY it can accommodate 6 people as advertised on their website - the two of us and our dogs could hardly even move around without trampling over each other), but there were several other issues as well. First off, the entire cottage was in great disrepair and was very dated. It wasn't even all that clean, especially the bathroom/shower. The floors were filthy are our socks were incredibly dirty just from walking on them. The bathroom door did not open without extreme difficulty from the inside. I actually got stuck in there on our first morning and I had to wait for my boyfriend to get back from the store to let me out! There was even a cockroach in the shower when we first arrived. Gross!!!! I emailed them about this and Ron outright refused to believe that there was a cockroach and said it was "probably just a bug from outside." Please...we KNOW what a cockroach looks like! Secondly, we could not adjust the volume on the TV in the "sitting area" and the volume was up way too high. Then, the handle came off the toaster as well as one of the knobs on the gas stove. The couch wasn't very clean, was uncomfortable, had a musty odor, and the bedding was paper thin, so we were freezing both nights we were there, even with the AC turned off. There were also only 2 super uncomfortable pillows on the bed. Probably one of the biggest concerns is that the shower floor was VERY slanted. My boyfriend actually slipped in the shower as a result of this. This is a huge fall hazard and someone could be seriously injured! I won't even go into detail about how ridiculously tiny the bathroom was. We couldn't even get the window to open to let steam out from the shower and there was no fan. Lastly, the pool area is TINY. We were so looking forward to lounging by the pool and swimming, but it was full of kids the entire weekend and there was no place for us to sit. That was a huge letdown for us. We frequent Old Orchard Beach quite often in the summer and we have stayed at several different hotels and resorts here, but this was, by far, our least pleasant experience at any place we've ever lodged. The only positive is that this place is dog friendly, but our overall experience will surely prevent us from ever returning to Landings Inn & Cottages. We definitely overpaid for what we received. What was supposed to have been a relaxing and fun weekend getaway turned into stressful chaos and extreme disappointment. I requested a refund, but Ron refused, basically implying that all of these things were OUR fault for "not saying anything sooner" and he refused to assume any responsibility whatsoever, even denying a partial refund. Honestly, the entire weekend, we stayed away from this place because we couldn't stand it, and only went back at night to sleep. AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COSTS!!!

If you are looking to stay at the awesome place in old Orchard Beach this is a place to stay pet friendly owner, and staff very very friendly. We could not be any happier than our week Stay with them rooms are very spacious very clean. We will be coming back year after yearI

Location is great! Stores, shops and beach is a short walk. There’s also a farm stand with fresh lobsters right next to the inn. I stayed with my family in the two bedroom cabin. Beds were decent but sofa bed cushion was worn down to the beam. Place was a tight fit but the full kitchen was very nice to have. We had a fun time at OOB.
