Great overnight stay with most accomodating host bob and one of the nicest breakfast with eggs Benedict and awakening to smell of coffee. We stayed in one of queen rooms and was very quiet ab And quite comfortable would go/stay again More

I needed to book accommodation in Ogunquit at very short notice for three nights just before Memorial Day this year, and found Distant Sands via a link at TripOutGayTravel.com. Bob, the innkeeper, was friendly and helpful on the phone as my partner and I, somewhat confusingly, both called to make reservations. You can't always judge someone accurately from one or... More

This is a beautiful inn on a beautiful piece of property a short walk from the footbridge to the beach. The innkeeper Bob is one of the nicest, most helpful people we met on our trip. The inn itself is very charming and Bob has made it your home away from home. There are places to hang out at the... More

We just finished our fourth visit to "Distant Sands" and this is our first review. We should have done this long ago! We now call "Bob the Inkeeper" our friend. He's officially on our Christmas card list. He is such a genuine person and the minute you meet him you know it. His home is comfortable, peaceful and the perfect... More

If a bed & breakfast could be rated 5 diamonds/stars - this property would receive it. The decor, while elegant, has a splash of rustic, turning it shabby chic - without the pretentiousness, while loathing toward its beach cottage roots. Beautifully landscaped grounds (think au naturale rather than uniformly manicured) surround the property - with a view of the Atlantic... More

Quaint B & B. Walking Distance to a great beach. On trolley line. Lovely innkeeper Bob - a charming host! Thoughtfully provides for every comfort - beach towels, wine & cheese in afternoons, etc. Breakfast was yummy! More

This inn is located near the most beautiful stretch of Ogunquit Beach. The inn is summery, homey, and friendly. The back patio is so peaceful and I loved being next to the conservation land. I took a nice walk after breakfast. The rooms are cozy, clean, and well appointed. The decor is quirky but pleasant. Bob is a very nice... More

We've stayed in three different B&Bs in the past 2 years. One was a house that has hart in the name, one served fresh blueberry muffins down by Perkins Cove, and this the "not so distant" sands. Bob uses his experience and knowledge of making people feel worry-free to make your stay unlike any other. I'm not even going to... More

Having been fortunate enough to travel the globe, it was time to experience something new closer to home. We narrowed down the spot to New England and eventually decided that Ogunquit would be the ideal location that had everything we were looking for. Ultimately we found not only a great area but the best B&B in town, Distant Sands. We... More
