This is my home away from home and I look forward to staying there every year. I’m steps from the beach and can walk downtown in the evening. The rooms are nice, some better than others, but the overall atmosphere is just what I want- beachy!

One of my dreams came true when my sister and I stayed here in October - we had a room with a balcony almost right on the Atlantic Ocean. We could see and hear the pounding surf from our room! I had the most amazing rest that night.

What a fantastic place to stay. Right on the beach! I mean, the beach was literally right outside my door. Clean rooms, comfortable beds, and great pillows! Don't underestimate the value of good pillows. Breakfast was also really really good. You won't be disappointed, just book it. And I recommend getting oceanfront of it's available.

Jessica, front desk, and staff in the cafe, Missy, very friendly and helpful on local places to go and things to do. We were there in the off season so many things were closed, but Jessica helped us with ideas to help make our stay even more enjoyable. The location is beautiful with gorgeous sunrises and we were blessed with a full moon rising over the ocean, too. LL Bean, Portland, and Booths Bay, as well as all of the small towns south of OOB are easily accessible from there for a day trip.We will continue to stay at the Alouette on our yearly, or more, visits to Maine. Thanks Jessica for always being that friendly voice and face that make it a great location for your get away.

When we first went to Old Orchard we were unhappy with the Hotel we chose, then we found the Alouette, this will be our third year returning to the Alouette. First of all Fred is very very nice. My emails are always answered right away, that to me is so important when planning my vacation. The rooms are very clean and well attended to during our visit. We love how it is family oriented, not party central. We will continue to return to The Alouette with our daughter and continue to build awesome family memories. Thanks Alouette !!! its the highlight of our summer. The Cotters(2011 TripAdvisor, Inc. All rights reserved.) April 8, 2011

PERFECT FAMILY SPOT EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE

IT WAS A GREAT RELAXING EXPERIENCE, GOOD FOOD, AND BEACH WALK WITH CANINE COMPANION!

March 17, 2011

The room was small but adequate and a stone’s throw from the beach for great walking and enjoyment of the ocean, which is why we came to Old Orchard Beach. For us Vermonters it’s a lot closer than Cape Cod, and fewer people off-season. We particularly like the fact the Alouette is dog friendly and even people without dogs seem to enjoy others’ canine companions, who were all well-behaved as were their owners. For our dog Jacques, it was a fnd remembrance from the spring visit and he began whining with excitement as soon as wee pulled into the parking lot. The real bonus was that the cafe there had excellent breakfasts!!! Too hard not to eat too much, but we loved it. Homemade muffins in variety right out of the oven !! Terrific “nest” egg dish. It’s also an easy walk to tour the downtown area and see the sights. Lots of good dinner restaurants near by and the whole Maine coast to explore. Don’t miss the trolley museum to the south and the lighthouses to the north. Sally and John Cook, Barnet, Vermont.(2011 TripAdvisor, Inc. All rights reserved.) March 17, 2011

GREAT EXPERIENCE

October 21, 2010

We had a wonderful time at your hotel. Staff was very friendly and the restaurant was great. Charlie in the restaurant is a gem. Friendly, and what a cook. The homemade muffins were fantastic. Our room was steps away from the beach. Enjoyed walking the beach in the morning and evening. Sunrise was fabulous. Definitely planning to go up again in June or September of next year.(2010 TripAdvisor, Inc. All rights reserved.) October 21, 2010

BEST BEACH IN MAINE

October 12, 2010

Alouette Beach Resort in Old Orchard Beach is the place to stay. Not only is the staff extremly wonderful, they have an indoor pool so no matter what the weather or time of year can swim. Rooms are clean and up to date…..They even have their own little cafe where the food is excellent. BUT the best part……unlike most of the hotels in OOB they gladly accept you four legged family members….. Thanks for a great time!!!!!!(2010 TripAdvisor, Inc. All rights reserved.) October 12, 2010

WE LOVED IT !!!

My husband and I went for a weekend getaway and never stayed in an ocean front room. The view was excellent and it was so nice to be right on the water. The food in the restaurant was great for breakfast and the staff was very pleasant and attentive. We will definitely go again !!!!.(2010 TripAdvisor, Inc. All rights reserved.) October 4, 2010

SAME TIME NEXT YEAR

September 28, 2010

My husband and I have stayed at the Alouette for the past 4 years in celebration of our wedding anniversary. The view from the room and staff are wonderful. The view is particularly beautiful. We look forward to returning to our same room with the same view knowing the experience is unique each time.(2010 TripAdvisor, Inc. All rights reserved.) September 28, 2010

FANTASTIC FAMILY VACATION SPOT

September 28, 2010

My husband, 21 year old daughter and I recently spent two nights at this lovely beachside motel. I saw their photos on the internet and it just looked so nostalgic, like it was stuck in a time warp 50 or 60 years ago. We had the best visit! Everyone there was wonderful. We were welcomed like old friends. The bathroom was tiny but very clean. The room was not huge but it was fine for our needs. The continental breakfast was great (fresh home-made muffins!), the waitress was friendly and went out of her way to make sure we were well taken care of. She even insisted on mixing up my instant oatmeal – try getting that service at a Best Western or Holiday Inn! The cook (we assume he was the owner’s son) did a great job with our breakfasts. We highly recommend this establishment. It’s definitely not a modern chain motel, and that’s not what we were looking for. If you want modern go somewhere else. If you want a family-friendly quiet resort, go to Alouette! We’re hoping to return next year for at least a week!!(2010 TripAdvisor, Inc. All rights reserved.) September 28, 2010
