Opening May 16th

MaryRating, 5 stars6 months ago
Accomodations exactly as shown in pictures. Kitchen is definitely well equipped with all of the essentials and more. Ice cream shop right next door is great and The Lobster Pound on the other side is excellent. You can walk to shops and restaurants downtown but we had no problem finding parking in the evening so we could enjoy the awesome restaurants.

Summer Vacation Rental with 3 beds/2 bath

CathyRating, 5 stars7 months ago
This place is within walking distance to the beach, miniature golf, restaurants, an amusement park and a place that will steam lobsters for you. We went to the lobster place twice to bring these large beauties home. 1 bathroom was upstair with the bedrooms, and 1 downstairs. There is a picnic table for outdoor dining. Our family of 4 adults and 2 children had a great vacation with weather in the 70s and being from Texas where the temperature was 100+, it was heaven.

The Brew House - 2nd Floor Private Apartment

CynthiaRating, 5 stars6 months ago
Great apartment in a very walkable part of Portland, a perfect location for exploring the city. It was clean & spacious with a very comfortable bed and we appreciated the off-street parking. The owner Jeff and his wife are very friendly and served us a fantastic meal at their small brewpub downstairs. I normally wouldn’t choose a rental above a pub, but theirs closes at 9pm every night, so noise wasn’t an issue at all. Would highly recommended this unit for a stay in Portland.

Kennebunkport House - Walk to Dock Square!

MaryRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We had a fantastic stay! The house was in a perfect location; peaceful, private, and still just a short walk to dinner spots, which made everything so easy. There was plenty of space for lounging and gathering, and more than enough bathrooms for everyone (a huge plus!). The house had everything we needed for a relaxing weekend away. Cozy, quiet, and super comfortable; we’ll definitely be back! Highly recommend.

Feb/April school breaks available. 8 bedrooms

RoniRating, 5 stars3 months ago
This was our 4th year staying at Sandy Cove to celebrate Christmas with our entire family. There are plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms to accommodate overnight stays. We love the 2 dining room tables and refrigerators. We had a small issue with a clog in the kitchen sink. I reached out to Mike and he sent someone over to fix it within a few hours. We hope to stay again next year!

This was our first experience with an Air B&B and happy that it was with Spencer. Our main reason for the East Coast trip was to see our grandsons football games at Bowdoin College and it was a perfect location. We stayed for seven weeks and loved the experience.

DaniRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Kathleens space was the PERFECT spot. Super close to everything, very walkable/bikeable. Kathleen was quick to respond when I had questions, and had fantastic suggestions. The neighborhood was very cute. Kitchen was VERY well stocked, and while we didn't need much in that area (so many good resturaunts) it's great to know that if we needed to cook we would have everything we needed. Super clean, especially the bathroom! loved it, and we will be back!

3 bedroom house in the heart of Portland

SarahRating, 5 stars1 month ago
I am SO glad we booked Nancy's place. It's truly in the heart of Portland with so many shops and restaurants within walking distance. And it was a quick uber to old port when we didn't feel like walking. The house is beautiful and provided us with more than we could have ever imagined. Thanks for making our girls weekend stay AMAZING!

Rob and Nate’s place is excellent. We had a great stay. Rob and Nate are very communicative and provide clear instructions - we also appreciated the recommendations in their house manual. The apartment itself is very nice and looks as the photos show, and the backyard/garden was even nicer than pictured. We had a great stay and recommend it to all.

Beautiful house! Lots of space and had everything you need for your visit. The community pool was great too. Very close to Portland and easy to get to other areas of Maine from the location. Jason was a great host and very responsive and helpful! Only minor complaint was mattresses upstairs were a little on the firm side but other than that the house was great!

The Dollhouse

JessicaRating, 5 stars7 months ago
The place was super clean and an easy walk to the pier/downtown OOB. Across the street is quick beach access and a breakfast cafe that was fast; had good food and prices. Sarem responded quickly to any questions we had. Parking is narrow but we fit 3 compact cars nose to tail. If you don’t bring your own pillow, the beds already have 4 pillows with shams on them. If you have other needs reach out to Sarem and she’ll be happy to help! I definitely look forwards to booking again for a girls weekend!

3 BR Seaside Home/Great Neighborhood-Walk to Beach

SusanRating, 5 stars6 months ago
I had just arrived at a nearby site to host family for my daughter's wedding. By 9:00 PM there was an issue requiring a new site—not easy as I needed a 1st floor bed for my elderly dad. Nicole answered immediately with helpful chat, making me feel less alone as airbnb resolved things. The clock was ticking to the wedding. John & Nicole were sympathetic, communicative, and got me in by 11:00 AM. The home was excellent! Handy with two 1st-floor bedrooms and one up a few steps. Checking in/out? Easy! The decor? Light and airy. The amenities? Up-to-date with SPARKLING bathrooms/kitchen/linens, washer/dryer, and TV. Very comfortable for me, my husband, my daughter's father, and my dad—with room for wedding prep and guests to gather comfortably at the generously-sized island and table. Limited stairs ended up being additionally important as I had a minor mishap the day of the wedding. I was thankful everything was so thoughtfully appointed and comfortable for me to regroup! Thank you!!!

York Beach House

BarbaraRating, 5 stars6 months ago
It was a “ladies weekend” for myself, sister and her daughter. We wanted a beach and lots of seafood so the location was perfect. Given we were driving from Albany NY, we asked Cathi if we could check in a little early on Friday and a little later on Sunday to maximize our time together. She was receptive to the idea which was very kind of her. The house had 3 bedrooms (one for each of us) and 2 bathrooms. We spent our evenings in the family room playing cards and watching Netflix. The five minute walk to the beach was very convenient.The sound of the ocean is always soothing! We can’t wait to go back!!

Immaculate Moody Beach House

NoraRating, 5 stars3 months ago
Our crew of 12 (7 adults, 5 kids/tweens) loved our New Years stay at Alyssa’s place! The open layout of the second floor combined with 1st floor/3rd floor bedrooms worked great for us, with plenty of space for both hanging out and privacy. Easy drive to Portland and local hikes, plus local beach access and nearby groceries and restaurants - even in the off season. The kitchen was well equipped and Alyssa was very responsive.

Beach House Getaway

MarkRating, 5 stars4 months ago
We were contacted before the stay; the owner described some updates to the property, and made sure we would know more about the neighborhood and area. The house was easy to find, and our stay was uneventful. We could have contacted the owner any time, but didn't need to, everything was as described. We will definitely keep this location in mind for the future. This was our first Airbnb, and it was a great experience. A big thanks to David and Will for providing a great experience for our family for the holidays...thank you!

We had a wonderful stay at this Maine house--Barb, the property manager was incredibly responsive, helped with a heating issue while we were there and had the repairs done same day--The house was well equipped with everything you need for a family getaway at the beach! puzzles and games galore, kitchen was fully stocked with everything needed for family meals (including lobster cooking essentials--bibs, crackers, steam pots) Great little fire pit out front which we enjoyed, and fenced in back yard area so pets or kids can be safely contained :) Linens, towels, all clean and provided--truly a wonderful home away from home, perfect for our family trip to the beach!
