Wake up to a spectacular ocean sunrise, enjoy your morning coffee on one of the 3 decks overlooking the ocean, and gaze at the joggers, surfers, and beachcombers from every window. Start your day with a workout in the fitness center, a refreshing dip in the indoor pool, a mind and body renewal in the sauna, a walk on the beach, or a relaxing swim in the ocean. Spend the day at the beach boogie boarding, building sandcastles, surf fishing, or buried in a good book. Later in the day, visit the famous Old Orchard Beach Pier for fresh seafood, famous fries, pizza, fried dough, caramel corn, and old-fashioned novelties and amusements. In the evening, restaurants and nightlife abound, try your luck at the arcade, and marvel at the spectacular sights from the top of the Ferris wheel. It is all right outside your door. If you prefer to venture out, how about some fabulous shopping at the nearby Maine Mall, or in Kittery and Freeport, only 45 minutes away.
