Inns and B&Bs
Inns and B&Bs in the Greater Portland & Casco Bay area place you in comfort & natural beauty
Portland's inns and B&Bs are smaller, sometimes in historic homes, and they are closely tapped in to the local atmosphere, customs, history, and attractions. The strong point of inns in the Casco Bay area of ME is their personalized service, European charm and quiet gentility. Innkeepers are usually pleased to offer additional small services and to give guests the lowdown on local dining and entertainments, like the Old Port, the waterfront, and the Arts District. Despite their old-world flavor, Portland inns are fully equipped with creature comforts like television and Internet access.
