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.

Wonderful Vacation

We only stayed 4 nights but we could have stayed much longer. Very well appointed cottage with beautiful water views and a very secluded private beach. Great location also for convenience to restaurants and lobster pounds. Thanks!

Lovely stay

My family (2 adults, 2 young children) had a lovely stay in Bar Harbor! The home was clean and well-kept. Window a/c units were helpful in keeping the home comfortable during the July midday heat. Quiet and serene with easy access to town by car.

Fantastic Property, Location, and Host

My family had a blast staying close to Acadia National Park in this wonderful property. The host was very responsive in questions that I had and she was being proactive during the trip to make sure we did not need anything. The property was as advertised and we enjoyed our time in the wonderfully appointed house and the time on the beach. Highly recommend this property and host.

Amazing Chalet

We had a great stay here. The chalet was clean and well stocked. A great layout for our family of 4. The location is great and was convenient to both sides of the island. It is right on the water - you can even swim at the beach next door. If you have kayaks - bring them!

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!

Just like Maine Cabin Masters!

Very authentic Maine cabin. Good location to kayak from or there is a ramp and access around the corner. We saw seals playing right out in the bay. Good to be in a quiet area but easy access to the park and Bar Harbor.

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.

Amazing and Perfect

I think our family was the first to stay at this property and I simply can't say enough about the house and the host. The house was perfectly appointed, very adorably decorated and was the perfect Maine cottage to spend time with family. The kids spent lots of time skipping rocks on the beach in front of the house. Lots of great hiking. This is the perfect house for a maine family vacation. Lastly the host was sincere and perfect to work with.

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.

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.

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.
