The chalet was everything we needed and more. Great location for short drive from Bar Harbor,, but we felt like we were away from it all. Everything was just as it should be. The chalet is perfectly set for relaxation and resting. The view s were great. We enjoyed watching the tides rise and lower from the porch as well as enjoyed some wonderful time on the beach. Don’t miss out on the chance to enjoy your morning coffee in the chairs on the beach. The kitchen was fully equipped, and the beds were very comfortable. We loved our stay only regret as we didn’t stay longer.

The property is absolutely beautiful and clean. We loved the little blueberry chocolates that the host gave us. I highly recommend this property. Beds were super comfortable! I only gave 4 stars because the air conditioning didn’t really work. The first night, it kept turning off which we figured out thanks to the host, but even after that it still wasn’t enough to keep the house cool since it wasn’t central air.

Natalie, thank you so much for your review! We’re very happy that you enjoyed your stay. We’re sorry about the confusion with the AC’s Energy Saver setting. As soon as we learned about the issue the following morning, we explained how to turn it off and offered to come over and assist. Since the temperature outside was around 60°F, we didn’t realize that the house still felt too warm for you. We hope this didn’t take away too much from your overall experience, and we truly appreciate your feedback.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at this cabin. It was the right amount of room for my husband and me and our two teenage sons. The kitchen was well stocked and appliances were top-notch. The outdoor grill worked great as well. The deck overlooked Eastern Bay. We spent our afternoons and evenings on the benches closer to the water, where we saw seals and porpoises. The kayak launch was great for our rented kayaks. The bay was great to kayak on and spot more seals and birds. The cabin was an easy drive to the Hull Cove entrance of Acadia. Our stay was the perfect, peaceful Maine vacation.

Our stay at the Hummingbird Chalet was amazing. Vira the host, is very nice to deal with and communicates excellently with you. The house is extremely clean and well stocked with everything you need. It was perfect for our family of four. Very cozy and feels like your home away from home. The BEST part of this rental is the incredible view of the bay and how quiet and private the property is. We sat on the big deck and watched eagles soar, boats and seals go by and our favorite memory: whales breaching and blowing water out their spouts. The sound they make is magical. Our second favorite activity was watching the stunning sunsets down at the beach and looking on the beach for sea treasures or having our coffee in the morning down by the water. Great rental! Thank you for sharing your home so we could create more memories as a family in a comfortable setting. 10 out of 10!

We really enjoyed our three night stay in this cozy chalet. The water views and sunsets were amazing! My teenage son really enjoyed going down to explore the shore/water every day. The property is well maintained and clean. The house was well stocked and is in a great location- not far from downtown and Acadia. The host was very responsive. We hope to be back again!

Amazing First Trip to Bar Harbor, Great Experience

My wife and I talked about taking a trip to Bar Harbor for years, and finally lined everything up for 2025. We looked at many potential places, but were very fortunate to find the Hummingbird Chalet property. The property was spotless, access to the private beach was great, the location was scenic but close enough to all Mt. Desert Island had to offer. We had a blast, including our teenagers. I'd book here again in a heartbeat. Thanks so much Vira for the wonderful experience.

Thank you so much for your kind words and for choosing the Hummingbird Chalet for your long-awaited trip to Bar Harbor! I’m so glad to hear that the chalet—and the private beach—helped make your stay special. It means a lot to know that you and your family, including your teenagers, had such a great time. You’re always welcome back, and I’d be thrilled to host you again anytime. Wishing you many more beautiful adventures until then! Warmly, Vira

Hummingbird Chalet

We could not have picked a more lovely chalet for a family visit to the Bar Harbor/Acadia National Park area. "Wow-factor" water views with a nice back yard and coveted beach access allowing for strolls at low-tide. The property is private, quiet and scenic- a nice getaway from the hustle and bustle of nearby Bar Harbor where parking can be challenging due to crowds. Very close access to Acadia National Park, Bar Harbor, food, mini-golf and other nearby harbors for fishing, sight-seeing, etc. I would 100% recommend this property to any friends or family visiting the area. We'd recommend bringing drinking water given the water supply's mineral content, but this would be our top pick if and when we ever come back to Maine.

Perfect Bar Harbor vacation

Our family of 4 (boys ages 11 & 13) had a wonderful vacation in Bar Harbor. Vira’s house is in a prime location on Hadley point. The sunsets on the point are spectacular! We were in town or the park most of the days but the location is super close and convenient! The house was so cute, cozy and had everything we needed. It was very clean and welcoming too. We would love to stay here again if we have the opportunity to visit again! Thank you Vira for a great stay!

Best rental property I’ve ever stayed at

Location is amazing-close to Bar Harbor/Acadia. Very clean. Top notch appliances. Beds are comfortable. Very responsive host and even had the opportunity to check in early. The views are amazing with beach access on property. Great deck for watching the water-even saw a whale from the property. Highly recommend.

Attention to detail!

We have stayed in several VRBO’s and this one may be the best. It was exactly what we were hoping for and more! Slept 5 adults comfortably. Every amenity you would need in the kitchen, laundry, and bathroom. Comfortable beds and pillows, box fan in the closet for those of you that sleep better with a fan like my crew. Simple walk to the private beach or walk 5 minutes down to the public beach. I would recommend this to any family, group of friends or even a couple looking for a quiet getaway close to the park and Bar Harbor.

Beautiful home and location

The location was ideal for a family of five to explore Acadia. We also spent a lot of time enjoying the lovely beach and wading in the water. The drive to Acadia and Bar Harbor was easy. We enjoyed dinner and ice cream at the nearby Sweet Pea cafe. The house was very clean and charming with a great kitchen for cooking family meals. The house, however, is not a 2-bedroom as listed. It's a 1-bedroom plus loft. We were disappointed with this because we like to put our kids to bed at night, then have some adult time, but the kitchen and living room were open to the kids' "room." The listing doesn't disclose this.

Nice house minutes away from the downtown area of Bar Harbor.

The house was nice and clean. It was cozy and had a nice view from the back yard. The only issue we had was with the shower. The water pressure was really low and the temperature would be really hot for a minute, warm for a minute, then run cold. I also think that if some kayaks were made available it could be a selling point. I know I would have paid more if those were available. But overall the stay was good.
