Captain Jefferds Inn

Rumb Line Resort

Just a short drive away from the Bush family compound, this is more motel than hotel. It is a two level building which is considered a resort because it has both an indoor and an outdoor heated pool, indoor and outdoor hot tubs and spas. Free wireless Internet access is offered in every room. The Admiral's Table is open nightly during the summer season and is famous for its Down East Lobster Bake. There are a variety of rooms and suites available including two rooms that are offered to smokers. The prices here are reasonable and include a Continental breakfast, as well as full use of the facilities including the fitness center. We had a very comfortable stay.

The Kennebunkport Inn has one of the premier locations in Kennebunkport and is a local landmark with over 100 years of service. If you are looking for a first-class experience, this is the place for you. The inn is a former merchant?s mansion that has been turned into an elegant accommodation. The Inn has 49 rooms but not all of them are located in the main building so if you prefer to be in the historic part of the building, be sure to request that when you make your reservation. The Inn is convenient to lots of shops and restaurants. Rates include a Continental breakfast and there is dining available at the inn. Additionally, you can order spa services and have a completely relaxing getaway.

The Nonantum Resort offers an oceanfront location which is slightly outside the center of town. There are two buildings at the resort, The Portside, and The Carriage House. There are also two restaurants and lots of planned activities during the summer months. There is a heated outdoor pool. The Carriage House was originally opened as an inn in 1884 and has been greatly expanded over the years. Some of the rooms are in a Victorian style and some are more modern in design. The Portside rooms have ocean views. There are family rooms in both buildings. The resort is family-owned and a family member is the innkeeper. Breakfast is included in the room rate.

The Maine Stay Inn and Cottages is the perfect place to stay if you are traveling with family. The cottages sleep additional people and several of them offer the option to connect with the cottage next door. Not to say that the Inn isn't a romantic couple?s getaway, it is perfect and the complimentary breakfast will be a wonderful treat. The inn is located within walking distance of lots of the historic village attractions, dining, and shopping.
