Executive Motel
Old Orchard Beach
The Beach
Seven miles of sandy coastline. A historic pier that's been standing since 1898. New England's only beachfront amusement park. Old Orchard Beach has been Maine's summer playground for over 170 years.
Executive Motel sits just minutes from it all.
OOB's seven-mile stretch of sand is rare for Maine's rocky coast. When the tide's out, the beach goes on forever. Swim, surf, paddleboard, build sandcastles, or do nothing at all.
The Pier & Palace Playland
The 500-foot pier is packed with restaurants, bars, and shops. Thursday night fireworks all summer. Palace Playland sits right on the beach—Ferris wheel, arcade games, a hand-painted carousel, and Maine's only wooden roller coaster.
