From oceanfront estates that stretch out into Atlantic waters to sanctuary-like inns hidden away in alpine villages, our Top 10 Maine Spa Resorts list is truly a celebration of this East Coast destination!

Sebasco Harbor Resort - Sebasco Estates, Maine

At Sebasco Harbor Resort, every day centers on the crashing Atlantic surf and rugged Maine coast. At the heart of all this splendid scenery rests the Fairwinds Spa – the only of its kind in Midcoast Maine – which is sure to surpass previous spa experiences with its enticing treatments and equally stunning oceanfront locale. Next door, Sebasco Harbor Resort’s luxurious spa suites let you rest your head close to Fairwind’s healing powers. Those looking for more authentic accommodations can hole up in Sebasco Harbor Resort’s historic lighthouse or revel in the exclusive surroundings of its private cottages. For a nostalgic glimpse into the East Coast lifestyle, a night in the classic Main Lodge is a must. Even the Sebasco Harbor dining experience is pure Maine, with the Pilot House serving up plates piled high with steamed mussels and lobster dripping with butter.

The Samoset Resort - Rockport, Maine

At least it might be a complete vacation at those other resorts dotting the Maine coast. Fortunately for you, the Samoset Resort wasn’t content to be on par with its competition, which is why it recently unveiled a new face, new amenities and new adventures for a whole new era of Maine vacations. It kept its 230 oceanfront acres, of course – even the Samoset Resort can’t improve upon perfection. Besides, the resort’s premier Atlantic Ocean real estate doubles as a site for countless improvements, including a sparkling freeform pool, a kids’ camp in summer months and a championship golf course with seven holes laid out at the ocean’s edge. Impressive, to be sure, but none of these Samoset Resort offerings compare to the indulgence of its spa services. A full body massage, facial or rejuvenating combination of the two is the perfect way to unwind before returning to the absolute comfort of the Flume Cottage – the resort’s exclusive luxury home perched on a Penobscot Bay peninsula.

The Cliff House Resort and Spa - Ogunquit, Maine

Maine’s south coast is a sight for world-weary eyes, especially those accustomed to the smog-clogged skies and congested streets riddled with potholes, but you’ll need more than scenery to impress the little ones. Fortunately, Ogunquit is a coastal Maine town big on history and oceanfront fun, and the Cliff House Resort and Spa puts you at its center. Here, exploring in a maritime museum is as easily within reach as collecting shells, learning to surf and countless other all-ages activities! At Cliff House Resort, you don’t have to be a martyr to have a successful Maine family vacation. The full-service spa is a delightful addition to any stay, and an even more welcome distraction for parents. Find solace in this Maine spa’s customized therapies, which reveal a full day’s transformation within a short span of time. The soothing lull of the Atlantic surf is recreated in your spa suite, where a generous hot stone massage is followed by an invigorating medley of ginger-infused oils.

The Beachmere Inn - Ogunquit, Maine

The Beachmere Inn’s all-suite building, Beachmere West, devotes an entire level to pampering at the resort’s all-new spa. If you ask us, they should have named it Beachmere North, as this stunning tower is home to a wide range of spa services that are simply divine. It’s also home to a collection of equally luxurious suites, in the event the Beachmere spa proves too tempting to leave. With modern amenities like flatscreen TVs and two-sided fireplaces, these Maine accommodations are a delightful addition to Ogunquit’s historic charms. Family-owned since 1937, the Beachmere Inn is no slouch when it comes to friendly service and hospitality. The Hearthstone Cottage, with its spacious backyard and barbecue, has all the home-style comforts required for extended stays or Maine family reunions. Even the more humble seaside inn rooms come well equipped, with kitchenettes that make it easy to turn the day’s catch into a tasty shore lunch.

Stage Neck Inn - York Harbor, Maine

Southern Maine’s newest spa, the Spa at Stage Neck Inn, occupies the peninsula formerly known as Stage Island – a fitting name for a spa that puts you in the spotlight and pampers with a menu of star-worthy treatments. A new line of services inspired by fall colors and wintry weather is just one of many reasons to visit the Stage Neck Inn year-round. The Four Seasons Mani/Pedi’s “Berry Sweet” Spring Exfoliating Scrub will have you yearning for a glimpse of sunshine, while a Hot Chocolate and Peppermint Foot Soak will leave you relishing in winter’s icy grasp! Located in historic York Harbor – the oldest town in Maine – Stage Neck Inn is one of those places that doesn’t just celebrate, but rather improves on its already spectacular location. Here, mornings are spent watching glorious sunrises over Long Sand Beach. This beloved stretch of sand, the largest in southern Maine, doubles as a lookout point to Nubble Lighthouse and other famous York Harbor sights.

The Spruce Point Inn Resort and Spa - Boothbay Harbor, Maine

With your choice of stunning accommodations, the Spruce Point Inn lets you live as much or as little as you choose. With their rolled stone fireplaces and private decks, the resort’s summer cottages are a Maine coast mainstay with ample space for your group or family getaway. Condos offer the same spectacular ocean views, with added amenities like private porches and modern kitchens. But for all their unique styling and décor, even Spruce Point’s beautifully-appointed inn rooms can’t hold a candle to the spectacular Maine coast scenery. Tucked into a cluster of its namesake trees, the Spa at Spruce Point channels its pristine surroundings into offerings like the Spruce Signature Facial and Organic Herbal Mud Wrap. And a step outside its doors reveals a wealth of recreation at a more leisurely pace. Charter a schooner for a sunset sail, lounge by the saltwater pool or slip into a waterfront hammock and watch lobster boats unloading the day’s catch in Boothbay Harbor.

The Meadowmere Resort - Ogunquit, Maine

While other Maine coast resorts choose to close their doors at the first sign of frost, Meadowmere Resort offers the best of Ogunquit in every season. The nearby Beaches of York are the center of every summer vacation, while Kennebunkport history and Wells antique shops are well within driving distance. Closer to home, Ogunquit’s shops and museums are worthy of a visit – rain or shine. And our personal favorite, the Meadowmere Day Spa, is one of those places where we could spend eternity and never grow tired. From learn-to-surf escapes to culinary vacations, we can’t imagine a finer start to a whole new year than a Maine getaway. Nothing inspires one to turn over a new leaf like the resort’s Mind, Body, Spirit spa package. This inspiring trio includes a personal wellness consultation, power yoga lessons and a relaxing Swedish massage. Plus, extended checkout to leave you feeling refreshed, even as you bid farewell to your Ogunquit spa sanctuary!

Cozy Maine inn rooms with fireplaces keep winter at bay – until you’re ready to come out and play, that is. With so much sparkling white powder at your doorstep, the possibilities are virtually endless when it comes to exploring the Maine countryside by bike, sleigh or ski. And with the Bethel Inn Resort serving as both accommodation and guide, enjoying the snow-blanketed New England landscape is as easy as stepping outside. There’s even a free shuttle that whisks you away to neighboring attractions like Mt. Abram Ski Resort, snow tubing and other family-friendly pursuits! All play and no relaxation makes for an incomplete Maine vacation – unless your New England getaway finds you at the Bethel Inn Resort, that is. Massages tailored to your aches and pains – including hot stone, Reiki and traditional Swedish styles – are as good for the body as the surrounding mountain scenery is to your soul.

Harborside Hotel & Marina - Bar Harbor, Maine

A crowning feature of any Harborside Hotel stay, the Bar Harbor Club Spa serves as the focal point of this oceanfront retreat. Inside this Tudor-style building, a restful palette of golds, greens and blue-grays takes each visit beyond relaxation and into total restoration. From therapies that center on the healing power of human touch, a la the Blissful Stone Retreat, to body wraps that nourish with ingredients plucked from faraway lands, this Maine spa promises to transport mind, body and soul to another place and time. Just past the spa, a wine bar is perfect for poolside dining or drinks before dinner at the exclusive Club Dining Room. Those looking to skip the vino in favor of something with staying power will find comfort in the Vanderbilt Lounge, a sophisticated space with the styling you’d expect from such a well-known name. Expensive bourbons, cognacs and ports are worth every penny, and when sipped to the beat of the lounge’s trademark jazz classics make for exceptional post-dinner aperitifs!

Senator Inn & Spa - Augusta, Maine

There’s more to the Chocolate Treat for Hands and Feet than clever rhyme scheme. This indulgent offering begins with a rich truffle to tempt your tastebuds, continues with a cocoa cocoon of mocha-infused scrubs and body butters, and ends in a chocolately treat for your fingers and toes. With so much Hershey-inspired goodness wrapped into one tasty package, chances are your soul won’t be the only thing awakened. When your inner being (some call it a tummy) begs for food, the inn’s Cloud 9 restaurant answers its call with heaven-sent cuisine! The spa at Senator Inn sets the bar pretty high, but accommodations like the Presidential Rooms continue where the spa indulgence leaves off. Muted color palettes of blue and green lend their calming presence to this Maine hotel suites, while plush furnishings swathed in rich velvets make them worthy of their prestigious names!
