We have stayed at this B&B for a number of years. We have always found our hosts more than gracious and helpful. Our room (and we have stayed in many of them) has always been spotless, comfortable beds, and warm comforters for cool evenings. Bathrooms tend to be small but I'm sure that in 1890 each room didn't have its... More

I stayed here about 17 years ago. The "when did you travel" box does not give that choice, but I was prompted to write this review when I saw all the negative things people have said over the last year. I am looking for a place to stay for vacation this summer. Nautilus by the Sea was clean and the... More

Where to start with this . . . how about the good parts? This is a beautiful location. It is right on the beach and if you book an ocean-view room you will have an unobstructed view of the Atlantic. The bad parts . . . the place is really run down and it is a bit like staying with... More

We stayed at the Nautilus by the Sea for 3 nights. The room was comfortable and had a sink, which was appreciated considering we were sharing the bathroom with one other room. While there is no reserved parking, we were able to find some in the street with no problem. The location is perfect: right at the bottom of the... More

Such a delightful place to stay. Extremely friendly. Beautiful rooms. The price of the room was exactly as quoted. No hidden fees and no extra charges. I have stayed at several Bed and Breakfast and this was by far the best. We would return again and again. The owners made sure that we had everything we needed and they are... More

My first visit to this Bed and Breakfast was not a positive experience. When we arrived, we were told that we still owed an addtional fee per day for the extra person. The additional person was added in January and it was assumed that the extra fee would have been included at that point.( When a phone call was made... More

The owner was rude and unconcerned of our needs. When I called to confirm our room and to get the balance that we owed for our,2 days before we arrived,I was given a balance. When we arrived it was a higher amount then given to me 2 days before. This happened to another group of women that were there the... More

Since 15 years now that I can't wait to get to the Nautilus every summer. Why? the rooms are spotless, the furniture is appropriate to this old cottage house, the owners are friendly and always available to make sure that everything is OK. I had the oppotunity to stay in many different rooms at this inn and I have always... More

My wife and I have been visiting Maine for over 40 years and for the last 10 we have stayed at the Nautilus. It is a traditional inn in a charming, old fashioned sea-side community and we immediately rebook for the following year at the conclusion of our holiday. We rendez-vous with about a dozen friends who all seem more... More
