View from hotel rooms absolutely amazing, and best part of our stay! The rooms are so cozy, perfect for enjoying the ocean front views. Girls at front desk were kind and helpful. This hotel felt more like an Airbnb property, other than coffee and tea in rooms no amenities on site. The spa looks cute, but hot tub and sauna do not get hot enough to use properly (sauna was about 55-60 C), maybe they work better in summer months.

We had a spacious suite with a beautiful ocean view complete with lighthouse. Since we were here for Thanksgiving, and it was cold outside, we didn't explore the grounds; but there will be a lot to enjoy in the outdoors in warm weather. We were happily cozy in our suite, which was well-appointed with a gas fireplace to cheer and warm the living room, and a good-size kitchenette complete with full-size refrigerator, cooktop, microwave, dishwasher, and even a washer/dryer in the bathroom. If you want a traditional hotel with common rooms and restaurants, you should go elsewhere; but the Viewpoint's staff is welcoming and helpful and responsive to after-hours requests if needed. All in all, a great place for a peaceful and scenic getaway!

If I could give more than 5 stars I would! The team at The Viewpoint really care that you enjoy your stay and it shows. The view from the Shoreline Room was amazing and with the cozy blankets provided I was able to see the sunrise on the balcony in January. Don’t miss a chance to have the best massage of your life at their spa. The bed was so cozy & the fireplace in the room magical. This was one of our all time favorite getaways

We've been to the Cape Neddick area every year for almost 2 decades, but this was our first time staying at the Viewpoint. I surprised my wife with a short 2 night trip to York. She loves the ocean and I knew she'd love the Upper Shoreside rooms with their amazing oceanfront rooms facing Nubble Lighthouse. We got room #2. The room was fantastic and the view did not disappoint. Modern SoCal touches were great with cool lighting, electric fireplace and comfy furniture. Showering with views of Nubble was surreal. We were checked in by Trish. She was warm and welcoming from the moment we walked in. We got great recommendations for dinner & drinks at their sister resorts (Stone's Throw & Lulu's). Extra shoutout to Andy at Lulu's who was also super nice and fun to talk to at the bar. Definitely recommend this resort for romantic getaways. Five stars!!!

The Viewpoint Hotel greatly exceeded every expectation my husband had for this trip, which he planned as a surprise for our 36th wedding anniversary. We absolutely love Maine, with the Acadia/Winter Harbor area previously holding the top spot in our hearts. However, I must say that the experience at the Viewpoint Hotel has surpassed them all. The view of Nubble Lighthouse from our room was simply breathtaking—something no other location can replicate. It brought us so much joy that it was honestly hard to leave the room. The accommodations were perfectly equipped with everything we could possibly need, making our stay both luxurious and comfortable. This trip will forever be one of our most cherished memories, and the Viewpoint Hotel played a huge role in that. We cannot wait to return, year after year after year!

The moment I checked in, I felt welcomed and taken care of by the staff. They were genuinely happy performing their work! The hotel room was clean and comfortable with a spectacular view of Nubble Headlight. They recommended dinner at their sister restaurant, Stones Throw, that I highly recommend.

The Viewpoint Hotel is a must stay. If you are looking for a weekend getaway or an extended stay look no further. We chose the lower shoreside room (#6) and it did not disappoint. The pictures and view are just as described. The amenities are plentiful. The staff from check in to check out were top notch. We can’t wait for our next getaway to the Viewpoint Hotel. It was exactly what we needed to rest and recharge.

Outstanding stay! The room was amazing and the view was better… checking out by 11 is great you can really soak up the sunshine that comes though the huge windows. Two thumbs way up! If you’re looking for a romantic getaway this is the place…10/10
