Saltair Inn, Bar Harbor, Acadia National Park, Maine, USA
Try to resist the lure of the Adirondack chairs positioned just so on the oceanfront lawn of this gracious inn, just three blocks from the centre of town and with a sand bar that connects to Bar Island at low tide. Your distinctively decorated, spacious room is the perfect oasis after exploring the Acadia National Park, particularly if you plump for one of the five spacious waterfront suites with their elegant private baths, gas fireplaces, and unforgettable ocean views.
