The Grand Beach Inn

The location was great for us! We have stayed closer to downtown before but actually enjoyed this hotel’s distance. It was close enough you could easily drive, take the trolley, or walk, but also quiet and peaceful. A huge bonus was the attached restaurant and bar below us. The noise was never an issue and the food was a great option for staying in or needing something quick and available. The street you use to access the beach is particularly lovely. Our apartment was our favorite stay in 10 years of coming to OOB. It was spacious and clean with everything we needed. The beds were good enough; could be better and a worthwhile investment for the property to upgrade but we have had worse and were comfortable enough to get a good nights sleep. The staff is exceptionally friendly both in the office and housekeeping. They restocked our room as if they had telepathy, swept our floors, and took out the trash BUT it felt like no one had been there at the same time. So our privacy felt good while also having attentive service. We will be back!

Crawling distance to the great samdy beach just on the other side of the street. Spacious room with working oven and electric pits to cook a simple meal for four, Keurig coffee maker was provided. Staff was courteous and helpfull. The hotel seemed to be fully booked but we had no noise issues. Pool was great to relax or lay on a lounger. The live music was an added bonus!! Easy ride to the carnival grounds and the pier. Great value for money if your looking for an affordable place to have a beach holiday without having to dine out everyday.

The room was a great size, very big, loved that it had a full size refrigerator and stove with oven. It had the perfect sized bathroom/ shower with bathtub. And the balcony was great. The parking was a little tight but not too bad. And i loved that the beach was literally right across the street. Perfectly nestled between 2 of my favorite maine beaches that you can easly walk from one end of old orchard beach all the way down to pine point beach. The staff was incredible. Friendly helpful and treated us with respect.

It was a nice place but pretty far from the pier. We took the train up and had to walk 1.5 miles with luggage and a dog because getting a taxi or Uber or Lyft was impossible. The restaurant was great. The hotel was clean, I'm not sure what some of the negative reviewers expweiencee but from what I could see it was clean but dated and could use some TLC in the off season.

The pool area was nice. The room was clean but the bed was very uncomfortable. The bathroom was nice but the shower did not have a shower head. Cable tv did not work and the WiFi was not great but we were finally able to log into our Netflix account after several attempts. The location was great, across the street from the beach and a great tiki bar restaurant with the best lobster rolls I ever had. Overall, we would recommend.
