Hotel overview
Set on 50 acres overlooking Penobscot Bay, this expansive property blends two motel buildings with separate cottages nestled on and off the shoreline. Beloin's Motel provides a rustic, back-to-basics experience with a true Maine coastal feel—comfortably simple accommodations paired with scenic ocean views and a peaceful atmosphere. Travelers can enjoy direct access to a private rocky beach, where the gentle lapping of waves becomes a natural lullaby at night.
The location offers a quiet retreat close to the attractions of downtown Camden, just over a mile away. Guests have easy access to seafood restaurants, art galleries, and upscale shops. Outdoor enthusiasts can explore nearby Camden Hills State Park with its scenic trails and panoramic vistas, or visit The Camden Snow Bowl for year-round activities including skiing, mountain biking, and kayaking.
The motel’s communal spaces invite connection, as seen in guests gathering around shared fire pits. Accommodations may not have luxury appointments but deliver cozy charm and the essentials needed for a restful stay. Staff are noted for their kindness and helpfulness, enhancing the homey feel of this vintage Maine motor inn.

What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“I had a wonderful stay. everything was as I expected. Everything worked. And I loved that there were a couple different families got together and we all sat around their collective community fire pit. I stayed in cabin 19. 20 looks basically the same.”
“Location location location!! We've now stayed here three times over the last 15 years, and we'll continue to come back time and time again. The cabins are so cute, and comfortable. The staff is accommodating and kind. The view..... The view is breathtaking.”
“We have been coming here for years. It is back to basics and we wouldn't want it any other way!!! It may not be the Ritz, but the rooms are great for sleeping and the view and surrounding area is priceless. It is our diamond in the rough. The staff is the best. Susan”
“I love this place. I keep returning year after year. I love their private rocky beach. This is what a vintage Maine motor inn ahould be. If you choose the oceanfront rooms or cottages the gentle waves lull you to sleep. Clean and simple with kind lovely owners.”
“Maine @ Beloin's: "The Way Life Oughtta Be." •. Crave getting near ocean — practically IN the water —to savor mid-coast Maine's many gifts, with incredible view of ocean even from your room? • Want to keep comfy & still stay near food/entertainment/harbor sailing & kayaking, but keep choice to prep own meals? • Ever find the feel of oceanside woodsy camp, but with hot water, comfy beds, protection from weather — and no mosquitos? •. Need to satisfy all 5 senses? Taste lobster, smell salt air, hear seabirds, watch fireflies, feel ocean? You will LOVE Beloin's. Our summer week at Beloin's has become an annual Happy Place— to do as much or as little as we choose. Highly recommend.”
“We were there a few years ago and I’m sure it hasn’t changed much. Was a very cozy and clean cabin overlooking the bay. Looking forward to spending time again there in the near future.”
“At the end of a quiet road, each room is right on the water. Comfortable bed in tastefully modern room with floor to ceiling ocean view.”
“It's not the traditional Beloins cottages and I will forever miss the nostalgia that went away with the new but having said that Drift Oceanside have made the new cottages more efficient and beautifully done. We cooked all three nights we were there. The views are still breathtaking and if you're there at the right time you'll get to see the Lobster boats!!!”
