Great restaurant, great room
The breakfast buffet was amazing. Plenty of food, lots of choices. The parking was difficult; that was probably the worst thing about the Inn. But looking at the landscape you can see there isn't much place for improvement there and they have done the best they can with the land they have.

We had a ocean front room that was clean and comfortable. The breakfast was delicious and included with the price of the room. There are new owners who appear to be doing their best to make renovations and upgrades. We would definitely recommend and stay again should we come back this way!

Cute little bedroom with fridge & microwave & TV. My husband & I were really looking forward to use pool & paddle board/kayaks but there were missing parts. The pool was covered in filled with pollen-which wasn’t kept up with so it was green. The paddle board were missing ankle strap & the kayak was missing a seat so we weren’t comfortable using those amenities. Breakfast was decent each morning & we were excited to try the dinner on site but it was waaay overpriced & not many options. We would probably stay again for the fact it was reasonably priced & convenient.

Our visit to Smugglers cove Inn was very nice. The unit was comfortable, clean and had a gorgeous view! Our only issue was with the satellite TV due to inclimate weather - which they did all they could to try to fix to no avail. We enjoyed our time in Boothbay Harbor.

Good for what it is…a converted motor inn with additional buildings. Everyone was very nice but the a/c was so loud we had to turn it off the sleep. The breakfast buffet was all cold. Good enough to sleep in a relatively clean room, but not somewhere we’d return to.
