Cliff House Maine

What the classifiers highlight

Perched on Bald Head Cliff above the Atlantic since 1872, the resort has grown across 70 acres of Maine shoreline into a modern property of 226 rooms and suites, each with a balcony and a sea-toned palette of navy, robin's egg blue and ecru. Forbes rates it Four Star and notes the spa and a three-and-a-half-bedroom cottage for groups.
