Jan Kolenda Review of Newagen Seaside Inn

My husband and I just returned home after a 3 day stay at Newagan Resort. We were lucky to get a great price as a result of their Pay What You Can offer for Maine residents during the month of June. We stayed in the Little Inn with a large and well appointed room complete with a comfortable king bed, amazing shower, microwave, fridge, coffee maker, take away continental breakfast, and deck with super comfy cushioned chairs and amazing ocean view! We brought our own bikes to explore the island but the resort provides bikes to borrow. We loved walking the beautiful grounds and sitting in numerous areas to enjoy the oceanfront views. At cocktail time, we enjoyed sitting outside on comfy sofas sipping on drinks and enjoying a delicious appetizer. One day we had mussels which were amazing. Another day the calamari which was the best preparation we have experienced. We also loved the crab cakes. The outdoor deck also has a fire pit that others enjoyed but we loved our excellent service right on the lawns.
For dinner, we were not ready to dine inside so we ordered take out each night and found every meal amazing. The potions were large so we shared one entree each evening. We brought our own plates, wine and wine glasses so we could thoroughly enjoy the dining experience on our deck. We had the shrimp fettuccine, ravioli, and halibut and each was expertly prepared and absolutely delicious!
Many guests enjoyed the pool area but we didn t use that area.
One day we went to the nearby Southport General Store 4 miles away and got lobster rolls then drove a half mile to Hendricks Beach. We had packed our folding chairs for this purpose and enjoyed a lunch on the beach!
Another day we had lunch at McSeagulls in Boothbay Harbor. Since the outdoor deck is open air, we felt very safe and comfortable eating there. All staff wear masks. Nd diners are expected to wear them when walking in the common area.
The Newagon staff was great and the stay felt very safe in terms of mitigation efforts for the virus. Everyone has to wear a face covering when in common indoor areas.
Highly recommend this great resort
