Oldie but goodie
Oldie but goodie! Might be a problem if you are a light sleeper as the rooms are not very noise proof but overall a great place to stay. The beach is as close as you see in the pictures!!

Stayed during low season. Really great first time visiting Maine. Hotel is clean, comfortable and optimal location to bed and surounding amenities. Staff is very friendly and always present. Beds were comfy. Rooms aren't the most sound proof can hear second floor and neighbors. But overall a very comfortable stay. Coffee and tea is offered in the morning at office and you're steps away from other restaurants. Would recommend and return.

Very kind, hospitable and helpful staff at the front desk.
We were there in late October, so it was a quiet time. Not sure how it would be in peak season.
The hotel sits literally behind the beach, so it’s an ideal spot.

Great place
The Edgewater is great. My only suggestion to the management was to move the outdoor ashtray away from the walkway to the beach and the building. For health rei cannot be near cigarette smoke. Other than that it was a wonderful stay.

Nice hotel near Portland
Room was very comfortable. Although we arrived after dark, the beach was lovely at night. Very nice alternative to staying in Portland. Thanks.

Room was nice. I like how close it was to a beach entrance. They have an EV charger which is almost unheard of on hotel properties in New England. I was surprised to hear the loudest train traffic move through overnight 4 or 5 times. I had not read any reviews that mentioned the train sounds. In spite of that, I’d still stay there again.

The Edgewater is a great place to stay, right on the beach. The rooms are very cute, clean, comfortable beds, and nice size. Bathroom a little small but has a great bath/shower combo.
Nice staff, would stay again.

The staff at The Edgewater were very friendly and accommodating. The rooms were very clean , comfortable, and a good size. We received clean towels everyday along with light housekeeping. It is a 2 min walk to the ocean and a great restaurant is right next door “ Joseph’s by the sea”. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay again!
