Maine Attraction | A Salt & Shine Short Sands Escape
Make your next York Beach getaway effortless at The Maine Attraction at Atlantic House—perfectly located and just steps from Short Sands Beach.
Set in the heart of all the action, you’ll be within walking distance to local shops, restaurants, and the classic fun of Short Sands. Watch saltwater taffy being pulled at The Goldenrod, entertain the kids at the arcade, and take easy strolls along the shore—then pop downstairs for a coffee from Wicked Coffee or a bottle from My Wine-Sister, both right in the building.
This bright, centrally located condo with street views sits on the 4th floor (elevator access) and offers two bedrooms and two full baths: one queen bedroom and a second bedroom with two twin beds that can convert to a king upon request. You’ll enjoy central A/C, a full kitchen with dishwasher, Wi-Fi, Smart TVs with Spectrum cable and apps, two Keurig coffee makers, a washer and dryer, and all linens and towels included—plus a gas fireplace for cozy spring and fall stays. The unit also includes one off-street parking space with a parking pass located across the street behind Molly O’s, a favorite spot for breakfast or lunch. Concierge services are available upon request, and please note this home is not pet-friendly.
Atlantic House also features boutique shopping, and you may occasionally hear some seasonal entertainment from the building during summer months (rarely noticeable from the 4th floor). With everything so close, you may find you won’t need your car for the entire stay—pure beach-town convenience at its best.

My family and I had an amazing time in York. The location was so great for kids as we could walk to various restaurants, the beach, an arcade, a zoo and a playground!

You're right - Maine IS underrated!! So happy you enjoyed your stay...come back next year!!
Amazing Stay, Great Location, Clean, and Comfortable.
My family thoroughly enjoyed our stay here, when we arrived I was very happy with how clean and cute the space was. It was thoughtfully decorated, and well maintained. The location is amazing, we were able to walk just about anywhere in short sands. Despite being above a restaurant, there was very little noise heard in the evening. The AC worked great too, and was very nice in the summer. Overall I would definitely recommend!

We're so happy you loved Maine Attraction at The Atlantic House!! It's a fantastic building with so much to offer in downtown York!! We'd love to host you again next year!!
Place was nice. I would go back.
But i would also recommend putting high locks for young kids. And maybe a toaster.
But other than that the place is a 2 min walk to beach and all other amenities. Would highly recommend.

Hi Kory,
Thank you for your feedback! We went right out and picked up a toaster.
We'll speak to the property management company about your recommendation on the locks.
Hope to see you again in the future!
