Learn more about South Portland

Between the iconic Bug Light and the rugged shores of Willard Beach, this coastal gem offers more than just views of Portland's skyline across the harbor. Kayak around Casco Bay's islands or cycle through neighborhoods where maritime history feels tangibly present. The working waterfront buzzes with authentic Maine energy, while seafood restaurants serve lobster so fresh it practically introduces itself. The Maine Mall provides retail therapy when the weather turns, but locals prefer exploring Fort Preble's historic grounds or catching performances at the intimate Lyric Music Theater. For the full experience, watch fishing boats return to port while enjoying ice cream along the Eastern Promenade as the sun sets.

DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Portland

10/10 Excellent
"From the front desk to the restaurant/bar and morning staff all were pleasant! Due to our breakfast staff, we changed our plans to eat dinner at the restaurant instead of eating at another establishment. We were not disappointed. Food and drinks were great! Our room was very clean. We will be staying at the Double Tree Hilton again. "
