Light filled & roomy one bedroom apartment in the East End of Portland, Maine. Situated atop Munjoy Hill, equally located between Washington Ave (restaurants & breweries) and the ocean.

Nestled in a quiet neighborhood, yet close to everything. Coffee, pastries, & restaurants are 2 blocks away. Stroll the Promenade overlooking Casco Bay & the islands. Walk past the East End beach along the sea to the Old Port in 15 minutes.

In our opinion, Munjoy Hill is the best best place to stay in Portland.

The space
The apartment is a renovated oasis up two flights of stairs on the top floor. There are windows on all sides and it feels like a tree top hideaway with light streaming in all day. The full kitchen is small but very functional. There is no dishwasher.

Stairs are on the steep side as this apartment is on the third (and top) floor. The entry door to the building and the apartment door both have keypads.
The stairwell is shared with second floor apartment which is also an Airbnb.

The bedroom has a new queen size memory foam mattress with two dimmable reading lights on each side.

In the living room ~ a large couch and 45" smart TV. (no cable, log into any of your streaming subscriptions )

Fast dedicated wifi with modem/router in unit. 500Mbps

This apartment is not suitable for children.

Downstairs is another short term rental unit with a similar layout.

Guest access
The private apartment is on the third (top) floor of a three apartment building. Access is up two flights of stairs that are on the steep side. Not best for someone with mobility issues. The ceilings are full height ( 7 1/2 ') with slight sloping on the sides. Windows on all four sides let in plenty of natural light all day long. The unit consists of a large living room, an eat in kitchen, bedroom and bathroom. It is very peaceful and comfortable place to come home to.

Other things to note
Because there are two one bedrooms in the same building, it would be great option for friends or family traveling together.

There is plenty on free parking on the street.

For city parking bans because of snow, there is access to off street parking.

Sorry, no children or pets.

Lives in Portland, Maine
We love exploring new places and appreciate thoughtful hosting, so we try to offer the kind of stays we enjoy ourselves. At home in Maine, we host two one-bedroom apartments on Portland's Munjoy Hill and four vintage 1960s harborfront cabins at Lobster Camp in New Harbor, a picturesque working lobstering village where life still moves at a slower pace.
