Glenmoor By The Sea

What Glenmoor By The Sea does

Glenmoor By The Sea is a privately held, family-owned oceanfront inn and cottage resort located at 2143 Atlantic Highway in Lincolnville, Maine, on 12 acres of Penobscot Bay waterfront between Camden Harbor and Lincolnville Beach. The property offers 33 guest accommodations across multiple formats — oceanfront cottages, oceanview lower cottages, upper bluff cottages, two-bedroom hillside cottages, six inn-building units, motel rooms, and a year-round two-bedroom Guesthouse — supported by on-site amenities including two pools, tennis and pickleball courts, disc golf, a fire pit, and continental breakfast. The business sells room nights primarily direct-to-consumer through a ResNexus-powered booking engine, phone reservations, and walk-ins, with supplemental distribution through Expedia, Booking.com, and TripAdvisor; ancillary revenue comes from on-site branded merchandise (gift shop, gift certificates) and bundled vacation packages (Lobster and Lighthouse with Camden Harbor Cruises, Experience Maine inn-to-inn with Old Saco Inn).

The operating model is that of a small, owner-operated independent resort: Renato and Millicent Kriste acquired the property in 2017 and continue to serve as innkeepers, with no disclosed venture, private equity, or institutional ownership. Revenue is not publicly disclosed. Pricing is per room per night on a double-occupancy basis, with a $15 surcharge per extra adult, a $30 nightly pet fee, a 9% Maine lodging tax, and a first-night deposit at booking; rates include continental breakfast, Wi-Fi, parking, and resort amenities. The property operates seasonally, opening in May and closing in late fall, with The Guesthouse available year-round. Distribution is diversified across direct and OTA channels, marketing emphasizes direct booking, and the company has invested in sustainability initiatives (chemical-free lawn care, LED lighting, energy-efficient heat pumps via Efficiency Maine) and accessibility (WCAG 2.1 Level AA, GDPR, CCPA compliance statements). Media validation includes features on the Magnolia Network's Maine Cabin Masters and inclusion in U.S. News's top romantic getaways in Maine.
