Family Friendly Lodging

Families fall in love with Village by the Sea, the perfect launching pad for a vacation in coastal Maine. A two-bedroom suite, with two baths, a fully stocked kitchen, living room, balcony or patio and washer/dryer is four times the size of an average hotel room, which means lots of stretching-out space. Lots of activities here, too, from indoor and outdoor pools to the firepit & patio, basketball courts, a fitness center and game room, free movie rentals and nearby trails. Ready to explore the area? There’s plenty to see and do, from sandy beaches to water and amusement parks, whale watches, zip lines, kayaking, biking, surfing and a science center. Go on a lobster tour – or just enjoy a lobster roll sitting by the sea.

A comfortable hotel directly on the beach, with a pool, close to the Pier at Old Orchard Beach, ME? What more could a family want? That’s why families keep coming back to the Sea Cliff House, where spacious rooms, suites and efficiencies make great headquarters for Maine seaside vacations. It’s just a 10-minute walk to the pier, with its many attractions, dining and entertainment options. Or arrange for a whale watch, river cruise or fishing excursion from the docks at nearby Camp Ellis. Half a mile south of Sea Cliff is Ocean Park, with the town’s original soda fountain, movies and concerts, clay tennis courts and walking trails. Back at the hotel, relax by the pool and hot tub, or by the ocean. Check the website for off-season specials.
