WE IN ROOM 14 A FEW WEEKS BACK THE RATES WENT UP BUT NOTHING WAS DONE TO THE ROOM IT WAS STILL OLD STUFF THE ROOM HAD A GREAT VIEW AND THE STAFF WAS NICE

Stayed there two weeks ago. The oldness of the place is its charm, kind of funky! If you're looking for the Plaza, this ain't it. I'd go back there in a minute for the beach, but not when tourist season is in full swing. DD

Have been staying here for 10 years. It's great being right on the beach, but it gets more expensive but upkeep not there. Old, things break, lights flicker off and on, not as dedicated staff as when privately run...too bad.

back in 2005 my wife and i went and check out the good harbor beach inn and it was a beautiful place but needed work but in may of 2008 we heard that a new owner had it we went back in 8-2008 and it was the best time we had on a vacation the new owner fixed it up the paint job was great the rooms look great he did a lot of upgrades and the place is ...

The rates were actually very inexpensive -- we stayed the last 3 days before the rates went up for the summer, ...

Our family has been going to Good Harbor for over 25 years! The Inn is nothing fancy, but it is right on the beach. The same families go every year, so it has become our home away from home. Very relaxing vacation, and the Inn is located on the private side of the beach so it is doesn't get as crowded. We have been to other vacation spots, but the kids love it here best.

I am basing this review on several visits there over 30 years ago, but thought it might be helpful.
I started going to Good Harbor Beach in the early 1970's as a kid. The beach is one of the best in New England! The rooms, as I recall, were very rustic with great views. Reminded me of a Maine cabin, not in the woods, but nestling the Atlantic ...
