Vibrant Victorian
Lovely Victorian seaside house turned inn. Clean, bright. Lots of comfy pillows on the bed. Great public areas for watching the sea, sunrise and sunset. Suzanne at the front desk was especially helpful and friendly. Great value for the room and bath. Elevator and accessible entry makes moving between floors with luggage easy.

The Beach House is such a darling property. It is right on the ocean and it’s just such a cutie! I felt like I was in a Nancy myers movie - the decor was absolutely perfect. It has such a homey feel and they make sure you feel that coziness. The lobby has amazing ocean views, so cozy, tons of board games to play and always coffee and tea to drink. They have bikes and beach chairs to make your stay even more fun. I loved that! They also have tons of rocking chairs outside & seating on the front porch for the amazing sunrise and sunset everyday. You can see the entire coast east to west and it’s truly breathtaking. The beach is like a 2 second walk across the street and I’d also highly recommend doing some stargazing here. It gets so dark at night and you can see so many more stars than usual! Our room was super cozy and the bathrobes were soo luxurious and soft. The bathroom was probably the only part that felt like it needed a little freshen up - but it worked fine, not dirty at all, just a tad outdated. However everything else was so cute and decorated perfect. The bed was super comfy. I felt like I was at home here. I would totally stay here again - it felt like home away from home. The grounds are beautiful with flowers everywhere and even the paint colors on the building itself just made me happy. I will say kennebunk is a quiet town so you’ll most likely have to drive into kennebunkport (only a few mins away) to get food. Everyone who worked there was so kind also!

Oh my gosh I loved this place. It was convenient to get around and soooo pretty. We sat and had coffee on the porch in the morning looking out at the ocean. It was peaceful. The staff was so nice and the public area was cozy. Like sitting in someone’s living room
