Aging resort in need of a makeover.
The Cliff House Resort & Spa is in need of a makeover, according to reports. Guests report that some furniture within the resort is outdated while some carpets have been described as dirty. Meanwhile, the hotel décor is said to be somewhat dull. There are, as of now, unsubstantiated reports that the hotel is undergoing renovations.

View from some rooms lacking in charm.
While some rooms offer splendid views of the North Atlantic Ocean, some guests report that now all rooms offer a scenic view. According to reports, the view from some rooms includes tar roofs, air conditioning fittings, and the nearby road. Past guests recommend requesting a room with a direct ocean view.
negative:
Location a little remote for some guests.
A small number of guests staying at the resort have described it as being a little remote for their liking. The resort is situated between Ogunquit and York, but not within walking distance of either. Guests planning on leaving the car behind may find themselves bound to the resort during their stay.
