About this property

Adorable Portland getaway on the Eastern Promenade

Lovely third-floor apartment on the East End, just steps from the glorious Eastern Promenade! Cozy and cute, this adorable spot resides in the neighborhood which boasts some of the best restaurants, breweries, and coffee shops in the city all within walking distance. On a quiet residential street, there is plenty of on-street parking. Downtown and the Old Port are about a 15-minute walk from the house.
Adjacent to the living room is a private deck. The kitchen and living room areas have a nice open floor plan with a skylight to let in lots of natural light. The cozy bedroom offers a peaceful view of the tree-lined street.
** Please note that the last few steps leading up to the apartment on the third floor are quite steep. **

Where to start? The hosts were incredibly thoughtful—the amenities and little details made us feel so welcome. They also shared great local recommendations that helped us make the most of our trip!Walkability was a game-changer!We only drove twice (hello, Cryptozoology Museum!), but otherwise, we walked everywhere—restaurants, breweries, shops—you name it. It made the whole experience feel relaxed and immersive.Food & Drink Highlights:Eventide – lobster roll, clam chowder, littlenecks, musselsFranciska's – Portuguese-style sardines, crab, golden beets, and fresh sourdoughDuckFat Shack @ Oxbow Brewing – poutine with duck egg, blueberry shake, and great beerFalafel Mafia @ Eastern Promenade – quick, flavorful bitesSissle & Daughters – amazing deli meats, cheeses, hummus, and fresh bread (their sandwiches looked unreal!)Double Great Coffee – excellent scone, breakfast sandwich & coffeeBayside American Cafe – smoked salmon eggs benedict life changingFavorite Breweries: Belleflower & AllagashWe felt incredibly safe walking around—even at night—and that made a huge impression. We truly can't wait to come back!

Very comfortable place. Liked the balcony and view. The stairs were accurately described but one must be capable of going of steep stairs to third floor and carrying luggage up. Would stay again

Great weekend stay

My fiancé and I came to Portland to celebrate an anniversary and explore a little bit. The apartment was adorable and as expected. The deck is such a lovely bonus! The stairs were in fact quite steep, but for just the two of us we didn’t mind for such a wonderful neighborhood to stay in.

Wonderful place!

The apartment exceeded expectations. It is spacious yet cozy, comfortable, very well organized, spotlessly clean, with so much attention to detail and really nice touches that the host provided, including snacks! The neighborhood is quiet and charming, and walking distance to just about everything. Communication with the host Jennifer was seamless. Five stars!

Cozy spot in a great spot in town!

We loved our stay here as we had a friends wedding for the weekend. Apartment was clean and had an awesome view out on the balcony. Jennifer was very communicative and helpful with how to get in the house and the apartment itself on the third floor. The apartment is walkable to many coffee shops and breweries near by so it’s very advantageous for a weekend stay. Will definitely be returning to this apartment for another weekend stay! Jared

Beware

We were checked into the wrong unit and asked to move for our second night (not relaxing). There was construction happening in the building...windows being replaced, etc. so we were subject to drilling, hammering and electric saw noises throughout our stay. Our first morning we were awakened by the constant beeping of the workers' van backing into the driveway at 7:15 am. We were promised a full refund and are now being ghosted by the owner and her assistant. We definitely do not recommend this property.

Nice place. Comfortably sleeps 2 and three if you have a friend willing to sleep on a roll-away or air mattress. Lots of stairs, like notable narrow attic stairs.

Offering listing showed photo of view looking over a patio to a water view. the house is six houses from the water; the view from the old deck is rooftops and trees. There were tiny bits of blue water through the leaves. The stairs to the second-floor landing were fine; the additional eleven stairs to the apartment door (no landing) have 10 inch risers, making the clime difficult. the stairs have 22 inches between the railing and the wall adding to the difficulty.. I had to drag the carry-on luggage behind me rather than carry it. the apartment was pleasant and clean. The kitchen nook lacked a stove or heating option limiting breakfast to toast and microwave heating options. The WIFI never worked; I was unable to find it at first on the list of available networks; when it finally appeared it indicated that I was out of range. I mentioned this to Jennifer and she said that the router was on the first floor and the system had an interruption: I was unable to connect any time during my stay. The offering listed a variety of TV sources but no instructions on how to access them. I feel that the photo was misleading and it was an intentional scam; I hold Jennifer, Kaitlin and VRBO accountable. I believe the water view picture has been removed and the offering now shows the front of the building.

Perfect little apartment, perfect for a five day stay with my husband. The balcony was a lovely addition and the hosts were responsive and helpful. Overall I’d recommend to anyone looking for a quiet location within walking distance to the downtown area and only a block or two from the eastern promenade.

These hosts are so gracious and helpful! It was a nice spot to land for a few nights in Portland. It is as advertised, as far as the very steep stairs and quaint size, which was absolutely fine for us. The only issue we had was with the air conditioning only cooling down the bedroom. The rest of the space was very hot. We were thankful we slept in the cool, at least, but couldn’t enjoy a movie (only tv is in the living room) or just hang out anywhere but the bedroom. We weren’t in the space a ton, so it wasn’t a deal breaker for us, but may be for some. We plan another night there at the end of our stay, so clearly, we do enjoy this cute, well-appointed, little loft. Thanks Jennifer! You were lovely to deal with for our stay.

About the host

Host profile image
I've moved home after living in LA for 12 years. Currently residing on the beautiful East End, it is such a pleasure to have discovered that over the last decade or so this neighborhood has grown into a wonderfully diverse, safe and welcoming community. Plus, I love being able to walk to brunch and to the market! I desperately missed those outings, living in the car centered culture of Los Angeles. It's been a wonderful experience meeting and hosting people from all over the world who are visiting Portland!
