Wonder View Inn - A hilltop Bar Harbor hotel with ocean views and pet-friendly accommodations

Perched high on a hilltop, this 2-star Bar Harbor hotel showcases panoramic views of Frenchman Bay and the Porcupine Islands. Wonder View Inn spans four distinct buildings, offering rooms with king beds, queen beds, or double bed configurations, each equipped with air conditioning, cable TV, coffee makers, and free Wi-Fi. The Looking Glass Restaurant serves breakfast with spectacular bay views from its glass-walled, eight-sided dining room. Guests have access to an outdoor heated seasonal pool at the adjacent Bluenose Inn, while the manicured grounds feature volleyball courts and horseshoes. Pet owners can bring their cats and dogs for $25 per night per pet, with water bowls provided at check-in. The Wonder View Inn is situated less than 1 mile from Bar Harbor town centre, Bar Island, and the Bar Harbor Whale Watch Company, with check-in services available 24/7 at the neighboring Bluenose Inn.

Pros

Pets are welcome to dine with owners on the restaurant deck

Historic stone walls from the original Rinehart estate remain on the grounds

Named 'Best Pet-Friendly Lodging in Maine' by Yankee Magazine

Private balconies in select rooms offer tree-top and ocean views

Cons

Check-in is located at the adjacent Bluenose Inn

Some rooms in the Livingston House lack water views

“While some inconsistencies have been reported, this establishment presents a reasonable option for exploring Acadia, offering spacious, clean rooms and comfortable beds. The location allows for walking into town and convenient access to the Island Explorer bus. Ocean view rooms are a worthwhile upgrade.”
