The Inn On Peaks Island - Inn in Peaks Island - 33 Island Ave, USA

FALL IS AMAZING HERE - Such an awesome experience for a great price. We were looking for hotels in Portland where good rooms are very expensive, when we realized it would cost far less to stay on the island in a huge suite with a view, and get a scenic boat ride out of it as well. It worked out amazingly well. We checked in then caught the fairy back to Portland to complete our business, returned for dinner in a small restaurant down the street, and on the way back stopped in the grocery store to purchase wine and snacks for the room. We had time for an evening stroll around the island to watch the sunset, before retiring to our spacious suite. It was so much more than we expected. Our room looked on to the docks and sea. Our boat ride from Portland and back was one of the most scenic rides we’ve ever taken.

Get off the ferry & there’s Inn on the Peaks just a short walk up the hill! We had such a great view from our porch, watching the ferry & watching the island come to life in the morning. We brought bikes to ride around the island- it’s a beautiful ocean view & stunning houses/gardens. ( or you can rent bikes) We did burger night at the Lions club-a quick walk down the street, it was amazing.( great food & live music)

Ordered the steak tips and was shocked to find only three pieces on the plate. It couldn't have been more than 6oz. This wasn't communicated on the menu at all and for the steep price of $32 it immediately got under my skin. The steak itself tasted good but again, hardly enough to satisfy. The fries it came with tasted good until I got a bit past the first few and found most of them lightly burnt, which really killed the flavor. Got a coke and one refill and found it to be very watered down. The waitress was well mannered and helpful I don't have any complaints with the service. I'm just angry about the steep price for the quality and quantity of food I received.

This is my third time staying at the Inn on Peaks, and another consistently lovely stay. Huge room with a living room area and separate king size bedroom. They accommodated a super late check-in, and even though we are barely into peak season, the staff were readily accessible. The restaurant is open part-time for the beginning of the season, and the food was fresh and delicious. For those wondering about travel to and from Portland, the ferry is very convenient, a short ride, and close enough to see from the Inn itself. Can't wait to be back!

Orlando was rude and difficult. Fish cold and we got questioned on taking a bite of the old fish while we waited for new fish. Then we got charged extra for a 23 percent surcharge and extra coffees that we didn’t have. The tone of the restaurant was very informal and a bit gangsta which wasn’t the way we like to dine. Don’t waste your time or money. Orlando tried to intimidate us and it was just plain inappropriate.

I don’t usually leave reviews, but felt like I had to! This Inn is truly something special. The people who work here are so sweet and accommodating. I get easily grossed out by hotels, but when I stepped into our room it just FELT clean. Upon further inspection, it proved to be very clean!! The beds are very comfortable and the sheets/comforter are as soft as the ones you have at home. While you do have to ride the ferry back and forth between the island and peaks island, we honestly didn’t mind that at all. The island provides such a unique and relaxing aspect to your Maine trip. Also, the restaurant at the Inn is to die for. It was one of our favorite meals we ate our whole trip!! In summary, just stay here! The staff, the inn, and the island are something really special.

My wife and I stayed here recently in April. For anyone staying in Portland, ME and planning to visit Peak’s Island, I would recommend just staying here ON the island. Room was really spacious and had a great view of the city line across the bay. It was also really convenient (and fascinating to my wife) to be able to watch the ferry landing from our room. We were a late arrival, but the staff made check-in super easy for us. No noise, clean room, and a convenient location. All good qualities in lodging! Peaks Island is only accessible by ferry, so if you’re staying here, you really need to stick to a schedule for your arrival or departure.

We stayed early April, still "off-season" in the Bailey suit. Quaint inn, our room was super clean. Electric fireplace added charm, modern furnishings. Single Jacuzzi tub in the bathroom was relaxing. Room includes a coffee maker, small TV, hairdryer, dorm style fridge and ironing board in the closet. The microwave is a community appliance located in the main hallway between rooms. Bed was firm, comfortable and extra linens and pillows in the closet. Pullout sofa in the living area but not used during our stay. Bathroom had extra towels right from the first day. We stayed off-season so help around the inn is limited, but the self check-in process was easy with all information required emailed to us before the stay. A very short walk from the Ferry so a car is not really required, depending how much you pack! The local market and other restaurants mere few minute walk from the Inn. Look forward to staying in the future!
