Kennebunk Gallery Motel & Cottages

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful pool! Dog friendly. Super nice and helpful staff."

Port Inn & Suites Kennebunk, an Ascend Collection Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This was mine and my husband‘s first time staying at this property.We stayed three nights in the main building and two nights in the other building and these were two different experiences. The first three days in the main building were cozy and very New England like and the second building we got a water view, which was absolutely amazing. This is very much a family oriented hotel we were surprised at the amount of kids ( we purposely did not bring our kids) but it didn’t take away from our romantic getaway and we will be back! The highlight was the amazing breakfast buffet! Thank you to the staff for making our stay great!"

Drakes Island Resort

10/10 Excellent

"We were met by Sarah, a really wonderful lady. And then, her boss showed up! Chelsea is just as friendly as Sarah. What a wonderful greeting. The grounds were great. There’s a pool, a little dog park and even a pool table!! And, right at the exit onto Route 1, is a yummy, beautiful, bougie breakfast spot. What a selection!"

Private Family Heated Pool Home near Kennebunkport

10/10 Excellent

"This property has alot to offer a large group. Our group of 8 adults, 3 dogs and a toddler had ample room to spread out and be comfortable. The home is nicely decorated with good, sturdy furniture. When we arrived everything was spotlessly clean and ready for us. The kitchen was fully stocked with plenty of dishes cutlery, pots and pans. We had everything we needed. The host was quick to respond to a couple of small maintenance issues that were fixed quickly.The bedrooms were great. One had a sitting area with a slider to a veranda looking east to enjoy sunrise right from your bed. Another had a separate entrance with a small deck and lots of room. One had an en suite bath. The other rooms were located in a loft area accessed by a tricky spiral stairway, but both were comfortable and pretty.We loved the outdoor spaces! There is a nice screen porch that opens to an open deck with a Weber gas grill and to the wonderful heated pool! Since we were there early in the summer, we used the heater and enjoyed many warm swims day and night.The property is quite secluded with a bumpy dirt driveway and lots of parking. Beware of the ticks if you bring dogs. It was a 15 minute walk to Parson's Beach, a lovely morning walk. Parking is very limited there so we shuttled folks back and forth by car on beach days.. This is an old house so it is not luxurious. But it is a comfortable, clean and private place for a big group. We loved our stay."

Walk to Drakes Island Beach, Large Kitchen & Yard, Theater & Gym! Very Private

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean family friendly house. Very comfortable living areas. Kitchen was fully stocked with supplies needed for cooking if needed. Lots of things to do on a rainy day. Close to conveniences and beaches. Would highly recommend."
