Great hotel
Nice location at the mouth of the Kennebunkport River as it empties into the Atlantic. Very large room - we stayed in the Inn section. Free bikes which enables covering most all of Kennebunkport to take pictures.

It was a pleasant stay although the rooms are extremely outdated and in desperate need of a renovation. However the area around it is beautiful with lots of things to do.

Best view ever!
The BEST view we've ever had in any hotel anywhere! Absolutely stunning view of moored fishing boats, the breakwater, beach and open ocean. Lovely lawn with Adirondack chairs and fire pits plus free bikes to use anytime. A wonderful, relaxing and beautiful stay. Easy walk to the charming town.

Beautiful location and very clean. Bed was super comfy and had great sheets. Our room was very spaciuos, and I appreciated the white robes. The coffee downstairs was amazing. Minor complaints…barely worth mentioning…no place to plug in a ISB charging cord. Typically lamps or outlets will also have USB charging ports, but there were none. Also, it would be nice to have a small Continental breakfast. There are places to go in town or outside the hotel, but having options available inside would be a great addition.

Lovely stay in Kennebunkport
The location on Ocean Avenue close to colony Beach and the proximity to the water along with a large veranda with comfortable chairs made this a great place for our three day stay, They always available free Bicycles Was convenient We did not have room service the first day and had to ask for it on the second day and the carpet had a number of stains, which should’ve either been cleaned or replaced Property could use some tender, loving care, but it was certainly comfortably enough for our stay The price of the room is reasonable and the quality was acceptable, but this is not a high-end resort

I thought the Inn had recently been updated, but this was not so. Also very strange that their restaurant is closed on Mondays and Tuesdays, since this is a resort area. Since we were there on a Monday and Tuesday there was no opportunity to even get a glass of wine and sit in the shade on the patio in the afternoon. Overall a disappointing experience.

When we first checked in, we ended up with an attic room on 4th floor …stairs only. It was too much for me and husband. We went to front desk and explained it wasn’t for us….they immediately changed our room to another building with an elevator at no additional charge. They were so understanding. It turned out very well. Thank you to the staff @front desk!
