    Easily one of the best experiences I've had. The staff is incredibly kind and helpful. The room and bathroom were clean, bed was comfortable, view was amazing. I was worried that the music/restaurant noise would be echoing into my room all day but I had the first room off the stairs and didnt hear a thing. Pros: location is everything and theres no better spot than here. Quick 1 mile walk to short sands - general store right next door for all your breakfast, lunch, and beach snack needs. Restaurant on the main floor for an easy access meal/drink. Cons: Super minor things - the shower head in my room was coming off the wall and the tub was a bit chipped. Minor cosmetic things that can always be touched up. The weirdest thing I encountered was around 1:30am my bed suddenly started shaking.. while I'd like to give the couple next door to me credit if credit is due, it felt more like if a washing machine/dryer was on a high setting. It last about 30 minutes then stopped but unsure of what was going on there. I look forward to returning next year! I had a fantastic time

    Everything about this place is worth all 5 stars and more!! The food is absolutely delicious, with a wonderful variety to suit the whole party. The service is the perfect result from what is clearly a great work environment for the happy staff that treats you like honored guests. The view and location are gorgeous!! We can't wait to go back and try more of the menu! Thank you to the wonderful staff at Stone's Throw for the great dinner and experience our family had last night.

    I am so glad I found this gem to stay at for my first visit to Maine. The staff was amazingly helpful and courteous. The food was fantastic. The drinks mixed by Matt & Lee were spot-on. Emily took care of my food and made me feel welcome, making sure everything was just right. Joe took time out of his busy friday night managerial duties of a full restaurant/bar to immediately attend to an issue I had with the tv in my room. The bed was very comfortable, the shower had plenty of hot water, and the breeze drifting in from the ocean was supremely relaxing. This is an ideal location; literally across the street from the ocean, I had the perfect vacation there.

    Excellent room. Very comfortable and clean. Eco friendly in a great way. There are a lot of wonderful (going the extra mile) things. I travel and stay in hotel more than the average person, so sadly, I'm not easily impressed by the room anymore. However, this room is very impressive. Beautiful ocean view. Beautifully decorated. Comfortable bed. This is a Wonderful family owned business and I highly recommend this place.

    Haven't been to York in years. It was as beautiful as I remembered it. I booked a room for Friday and Saturday night, but loved it so much we stayed an extra night. The room was really clean and cozy. The views were beautiful. We were fortunate enough to have an amazing weather and we're able to sit on the deck and have coffee while watching the sunrise. At night, it was warm enough to eat and drink wine on the deck and then walk across to sit on the beautiful beach across the street. There is a restaurant downstairs and it was really busy. It was really nice. Chairs around little firepits and all around nice atmosphere. It closes early too, so it was completely quite by 930 latest. Working with the people from the hotel were amazing too. They were nice and helpful from the booking, to saying goodbye. It really was a great weekend all around.....another topping to the weekend was how nice people are in Maine!! Can't wait to get back!!! Thanks Stones Throw!!!

    See all

Even though the day was gloomy, chilly, and on-and-off rainy, it somehow made everything feel even more special. Right before our 3 PM ceremony, the rain eased into a light sprinkle, and thanks to my mom bringing a bunch of clear umbrellas to hand out, we were still able to have the ceremony outside. It was beautiful. After the ceremony, guests moved to a covered outdoor deck for cocktail hour, which was set up beautifully, and then into the Harborview Room for the reception. Everything flowed seamlessly. Dawn, our wedding coordinator, was incredible to work with. She handled everything behind the scenes so effortlessly that I didn't have to worry about a single thing on the day of. She truly made sure everything was perfect. I would absolutely recommend hosting your wedding here, or even just staying at the inn. It's charming and intimate without feeling too small, the staff is incredibly attentive, and the setting is peaceful and beautiful. And the food? Amazing. Truly next-level. And don't even get me started on the breakfast buffet... yeah the homemade apple cider donuts are unreal.

EVERYONE from the people I spoke with on the phone, to those at the desk, and those in the restaurants were incredibly friendly and helpful. So much so, that my husband, friend who was with us, and I kept commenting on it to each other. We got an email the day of our reservation saying that pipes had burst in the building we had for our reservation (they have four (I think it's four) buildings that comprise the inn) and they gave us options for other rooms. They upgraded us to a really lovely room. The location is excellent - across the street from the ocean. The furnishings were old (in a good way), heavy, wood pieces that really contributed to the place feeling warm and homey. The beds were superior. The shower pressure was strong. The sharing living room with fire place was so comfortable. The breakfast was top shelf. Homemade coffee cake and apple cake and blueberry muffins. Homemade pancakes one morning. Everything about breakfast was great - and included in the room cost. They have a restaurant and a pub in the main building. We ate at both. The staff were wonderful. The servings were more than ample (the bean and goat cheese salad was enormous, and the mussels appetizer was super generous). I had the ravioli with seafood, which was delicious. My husband loved the mussels. The crab cakes were truly full of crab meat, not filler. Our servers were relaxed, helpful, and friendly - making our dining even more enjoyable. We definitely will return to the Inn, and recommend it to everyone we know. It was a special couple days. Did I mention how friendly the people are there?

We, as long as others, were doing laps around the main lot and the mini lot for the Harbor Hill Inn trying to find a spot. We ended up having to park on the street because there were not enough spots at Harbor Hill. When checking in, we were told there are enough spots for each room, yet the lot for our Inn was completely full. We were also told that if we found a spot, we shouldn't move the car. We wanted to explore the area more, so we did have to leave, it is odd to me that an Inn doesn't have a better parking situation for Inn patrons. We thought it would be fun to go to the pub for apps and a drink before our dinner reservation at the main restaurant. Unfortunately, we were met with an hour long wait for 2 at the pub. I do find it interesting when an Inn doesn't open up reservations or spots for their own guests to dine, rather than locals. When we did go to our dinner reservation, we had a nice time. Our waiter was helpful. When the food came, they brought out a wrong dish. The boy that brought it out told us he wished we said something before he put it on the table because now the dish couldn't be used. We weren't able to tell it wasn't the right dish until it was in front of us.... we then waiting 15 minutes for the right food to come out. Our waiter had them remake my meal as well since it got cold, which was nice. The food was great once we finally had it. They also comped 50% of the wrong dish which was also nice. After dinner we had drinks and headed back to our room to go to bed. A phone call woke us up. It was the front desk; they told us that "Someone came into the lobby furious that our room is being so loud. They said that last night, this morning and this evening we have been ridiculously loud." I told the person on the other line that we have been asleep in bed, and we only checked in this evening. I find it curious that the front desk wouldn't look who was in the room and if we had even been there the day prior. Then, instead of offering an apology, they said "well do you hear any noise?" I said earlier the room next to us was making some noise but nothing like they are describing. They then said, "well which side, right or left?" I said I do not know I need to go back to bed. Pretty unbelievable, and something that hasn't even happened to me at a cheap hotel. I wish I walked away feeling better about our stay, but it is in a beautiful location...

The rooms are definitely old but our bed was comfortable, clean and updated appearance to the beds and linens, and the tv/coffee maker/etc were all nice to have. We had two double beds and it was comfortably sized (along with a little cafe type table and 2 chairs). The tub is old. Clean but old. Tub and toilet are in the bathroom, the vanity/sink are outside of the bathroom - just for reference. This worked well for us, and can work well for families trying to shower/get ready separately but simultaneously. Location is fantastic. Right across from the gorgeous ocean. Roaring waves, beautiful sounds and sights. I loved the location. Plenty of restaurants, even off-season, to visit VERY close by. Nubble light is in view from the hotel (and is just minutes away by car). Gorgeous. They have a little bar/cafe inside the office/pool building. The bar is pricey in a way that makes zero sense. Bartender, while nice, probably isn't a bartender at all and is just assisting in that area as there was really no knowledge of beverages to make/mix and no rhyme or reason to pricing. No where to sit to enjoy them unless you sit in the pool area which is WARM (heated pool, so it's nice for swimmers) and noisey as all get out if there are many swimming. Pool seemed nice, though we didn't use it (outdoor pool is closed right now due to the season). All in all, we would stay again. Our rooms were ready VERY early (so great) and we received text messages to alert us, so we were able to check in well before our time and we appreciated that a lot.

I have traveled all over the world and have never heard of charging for late checkout. I would respect it more if they just said they couldn't accommodate it. If they're going to charge 1/3 the price of an entire night's stay, you should get more than 1 hour! Seems outrageous for a very outdated motel, during the off season, when the building was mostly empty. They also don't clean the rooms while you're there for multiple days. I had to take out my own trash. Yet they wanted to charge me $50 to stay an extra hour. Also, bring your own pillow. The ones on the queen bed are only 12 inches long

The gentleman that checked us in was helpful, professional and friendly. Ideal location in the heart of York Beach steps from the sand. Parking is an off street lot across the street, though the York Beach parking enforcement officer (replete with military combat boots and tactical military issue pants) was kind enough to give me a parking citation during the five minutes I unloaded our luggage. There was no meter or sineage where the car was parked. Upon entering the ocean view king suite we were impressed with the size and style of the unit. As we sat down on a weathered pull out couch we noticed a large coffee stain on the coffee table. We also noticed plentiful crumbs and chocolate chips on the couch (and even more crumbs as we opened the pull out section). Worse still it was clear that the pull out couch long surpassed its useful lifespan and had a large 3 inch sharp piece of metal sticking out. King bedroom was a bit cramped but nice bed and pillows. On the nonexistent WiFi alone I would have picked another property if I had known. The given WiFi router worked for 2-3 minutes the entire stay. One of the bedroom lamps did not work. A few of the electrical outlets did not function and others could not have passed any inspection. The washer (of the stackable washer/dryer) did not work. The unit was great size and comfortable for four of us. The location cannot be beat. But the several misses keep this property from a higher score. If they would address the above problems we would return. If not, we will pick another property for our next stay in York.
