We stayed in the small cottage behind the main house from which we could see the harbor through her lovely little flower garden. We only made it to one breakfast but that one was delicious. she was always friendly and helpful.

Relaxing Stay in Solitude

Donna was a wonderful hostess. She greeted us warmly and really wanted to know a bit about us and what brought us to Boothbay Harbor (an anniversary celebration). Her orientation to our accommodations and the town was very helpful. We stayed in “solitude “, a lovely, separate cottage behind the main house that was perfect for us. We will definitely return to Atlantic Ark in the future.

Very quaint Inn

My wife and I had a great stay at Atlantic Ark Inn. Host Donna is very accommodating; very willing to help with any need. We stayed in the "Tranquility room." The mattress is very, very firm, we told Donna about it and she provided a nice mattress topper that made our night's sleep much nicer. Breakfast was served on weekends on and was very delicious! The harbor view from our bedroom was very nice. Currently there is no fridge or microwave oven in the room but Donna is looking to remedy that in the near future. Overall a very nice place to stay!

Loved having breakfast on the porch and talking to other guests while looking out at a stunning view of the harbor. The room was comfortable and clean and had everything we needed. Our host Donna was willing to go above and beyond for us. Will definitely stay there again.

Our host Donna was very nice and helpful too! Our room was very clean and tastefully decorated! We were able to walk to town and a yummy breakfast spot from the inn. It was very quiet where we were even though the inn was full! We stayed on the top floor (only available) in a small cozy room which was perfect for my husband and me! Hopefully we can come again! Loved it!!

Ok, but Nothing Special

Unfortunately the Inn only serves breakfast on Sat. and Sun. morning. Owner is very nice, but seems somewhat overwhelmed. We had stayed at the Inn previously and it’s now more like a boarding house rather than a B&B that it was in the past.

Absolutely perfect stay! I can not overstate how amazing, not only the Atlantic Ark is, but how incredibly kind and gracious Donna, our host was. I will never stay anywhere else when in Boothbay. In fact, I can’t wait to go back.

The property is a small old historic inn on the main street of Boothbay Harbor, with a very small parking area. The rooms are small and getting to them is up a long steep staircase which is a problem. The bathroom in our room was good, and the breakfast was good.
