SeaStar Ocean Front Condo

Welcome to the Quietside. We are a small, family run motel located just outside of Southwest Harbor on the ‘Quietside of the island’, removed from the boisterous atmosphere of Bar Harbor. Protected by the solitude of the park, we are still in a convenient location, situated three miles from both Southwest Harbor and Bass Harbor restaurants and services.

Welcome to the Quietside. We are a small, family run motel located just outside of Southwest Harbor on the ‘Quietside of the island’, removed from the boisterous atmosphere of Bar Harbor. The ‘Quietside’ is the less commercialized and more family oriented west side of Mount Desert Island. We border one of the more serene entrances to Acadia National Park and offer comfortable, clean lodging with an engaging breakfast every morning. Protected by the solitude of the park, we are still in a convenient location, situated three miles from both Southwest Harbor and Bass Harbor restaurants and services.History:Built in the 1960s, the Seawall Motel has been a trusted “Maine Stay”, delighting guests from near too far, for decades. Abutted by Acadia National Park and the rocky shores of the Atlantic Ocean, travelers need not look farther than the front yard to find a plethora of outdoor activities, amazing sights, and glorious ocean views.In addition to the walking trails of Ships Harbor and Wonderland, the Bass Harbor lighthouse is just a few minutes’ drive or bike ride away. If an ice cream sundae, glass of wine or a cozy latte is more your cup of tea, the downtown district of Southwest Harbor is nearby with quaint shops, restaurants, and local attractions certain to delight all ages.Though Southwest Harbor has its own fair share of restaurants, Bar Harbor another foodie and exploration destination is an easy trek across the island via automobile or shuttle, but if an authentic lobster dinner, or something a little more casual is more your style, the world-famous Charlotte's Legendary Lobster Pound is within walking distance of the motel property featuring a full menu, with tastes for all diets. Not only does this fun family outdoor restaurant deliver legendary food and a nostalgic experience. It is also worthy of note, that delivery to the motel can often be arranged and the restaurant allows BYOB.
