Why Stay in Saco

Close to Old Orchard Beach, Without the Old Orchard Beach Price Tag

Old Orchard Beach in July is a resort town running at full capacity. Great for a day trip. Intense for a multi-night stay. Saco sits right next to OOB, directly off the Maine Turnpike — the natural first stop off the highway.

From Saco Bay Hotel, the OOB pier is a 7-minute drive. Funtown Splashtown is 1.5 miles. Ferry Beach State Park is 2 miles. Downtown Biddeford — with some of the most acclaimed restaurants in Maine — is 10 minutes. You spend your days at the beach and your evenings somewhere completely different.

Most guests who have done it both ways prefer the Saco setup. Book direct for the best rate.
