Atlantean Cottage

Atlantean Cottage B&B is an absolute gem and the perfect place to stay in Bar Harbor! We visited in October for the Mount Desert Island Marathon, and from the moment we arrived, we knew we had made the right choice. Brad and Nadine are exceptional hosts—warm, welcoming, and incredibly attentive to every detail. They made us feel at home right away, offering great local recommendations and ensuring we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Their hospitality truly elevated our experience. The location is unbeatable—just a short walk to the heart of Bar Harbor, where you can explore great restaurants, shops, and the waterfront. Yet, the inn itself is tucked away in a quiet, peaceful setting, providing the perfect balance of convenience and relaxation. Our room was nothing short of amazing—beautifully decorated, spotlessly clean, and thoughtfully designed with comfort in mind. The cozy ambiance, plush bedding, and charming details made it the perfect retreat after a long day of exploring Acadia National Park and enjoying the marathon events. Breakfast each morning was absolutely delicious, with fresh, high-quality ingredients and a creative menu that made every meal a treat. It was clear that a lot of love and care goes into every dish. We truly can't recommend Atlantean Cottage enough! Whether you're visiting for an event like the marathon, exploring Acadia, or just looking for a peaceful getaway, this B&B is the perfect choice. We will absolutely be staying here again on our next trip to Bar Harbor!

A perfect room in a perfect cottage with perfect hosts and chefs! We have stayed in several (maybe 7-10) B&Bs over the years. This was, BY FAR, the best experience yet. Brad and Nadine have created a haven from the busyness of Bar Harbor. We stayed in the first-floor Wingwood room and were concerned that it might be a little noisy being so close to the parking lot, kitchen, and cottage entrance. Nope - so very quiet we didn't even hear other guests coming down for breakfast. Speaking of breakfast - wow! This is not like any breakfast I've ever made. Blueberry crumble, tomato tart from scratch puff pastry, waffles and friend chicken, huevas rancheros - you will not go hungry here. The butlers pantry supplies fresh ice, water, tea, snacks, fruit, and (if you're lucky) cookies. The Wingwood room has a spacious private balcony with comfy furniture and privacy curtains. We sat here every evening before and after walking to dinner. When we go back to Bar Harbor, we won't look anywhere else. We have already found he perfect getaway!

I love to stay in a bed and breakfast when I travel and the Atlantean is one of the best B & B experiences I have had. Wonderfully situated, the cottage is tucked around the corner from Main Street in Bar Harbor, Maine. The grounds of the cottage are well tended. The common rooms as well as the Wingwood Suite are well appointed and comfortable. Loved the private porch off the Wingwood Suite. Breakfast on the front porch was lovely and delicious. Brad and Nadine are wonderful hosts and work hard to make sure each guest has a great Bar Harbor experience. As for Bar Harbor, I wouldn't think of staying anywhere else.

Everything was excellent. The house is beautiful and the room was so nicely decorated and clean. Couldn't ask for a better location with off street parking. Made it easy to just walk around the area. The breakfast was amazing. Definitely a must stay if you are in the area.

The Atlantean Cottage is on a quiet street but only one block from Main Street so it's a great location. The house itself is gorgeous and recently redecorated I think. It is lovingly cared for. Our bedroom was large and quiet. I never heard the other guests although the house was fully booked. I loved the privacy. There was a beautifully landscaped side yard with chairs where you could get away from the downtown activity. We enjoyed eating fantastic breakfasts on the front porch every morning. I loved this place and would definitely stay here again. There is free parking behind the building which is nice so you can leave your car and walk everywhere. The hosts were kind and helpful and gave guests their space.

Truly enjoyed our stay at Atlantean. Brad and Nadine were wonderful hosts and the breakfasts were things of beauty. Location was fabulous and quick fun walks to town and the shore walk. We stayed in the Wingwood room which was very spacious and had a lovely private patio (which we did not take full advantage of since we were gone much of the days.) Being there at the end of the season , the bathroom, in particular, needed a bit of attention but we did not bother to mention this to the hosts until our departure. If we had, I am sure it would have been rectified. Can heartily recommend Atlantean.
