4-star hotels in Ellsworth
A shortlist of 4-star stays in Ellsworth, United States, drawn from the town's holiday homes, cottages and historic properties. It suits couples, families and small groups who want a quiet coastal base near Acadia National Park.
Staying in Ellsworth
Ellsworth sits in Maine, close to the coast and to Acadia National Park, and the stays here are mostly self-catering houses, cottages and one historic mansion rather than large hotels. Addresses spread from High St and East Main Street in town to shoreline and rural roads such as Lamoine Beach Rd, Shore Road, Bayside Road and Jellison Cove Road. That means guests trade a lobby for a kitchen, a patio or a fireplace — and often water, garden or woodland on the doorstep.
Couples looking for a private retreat fit the smaller cottages, such as Couples Cove Cottage or Bayside Hideout. Families and groups of friends do better in the larger houses, including Sugar Maple Farm near Acadia and K1ssick Cove Beach House family Acadia watersports, where family rooms, playgrounds and games rooms appear in the facilities. Business travellers are less well served, though Luxury Convenience and Comfort Near Acadia has apartments and laundry service in town. For a short break, properties with kitchens and free car parking make an easy base for exploring the area.
