Very great stay in York, Maine!

We stayed in York, Maine and could not recommend the Cape House more! Our hosts were very helpful and responsive, and our house was clean and had tons of amenities. We will definitely look into booking with Salt & Shine for the future.

There is no cell phone service near the property. I would advise ensuring receipt of the check in instructions email before getting to the property. The host was highly responsive and helpful. We really enjoyed our stay.

Great place to stay! Beautiful location and comfortable beds. This house does have a “Steep” set of stairs to bedrooms and to the bathroom with shower so note to anyone not fit to handle that climb. Otherwise fabulous

This is the second time we have stayed at Cape House in York Harbor. We love this house, you feel like you are home the minute you walk in. My sister and I come to York in the fall to meet our other sister and spend time with her son and his family. We usually spend 5-6 days and this place is the perfect fit for what we need. It is right around the corner from where he lives which makes it extremely convenient for us. You can walk or drive to the beach and there is shopping just down the road in Kittery.This place has been immaculate both times we’ve stayed there, very quiet neighborhood and like I said before, it is like coming home. The kitchen has everything you need, the beds are very comfortable, Wi-Fi and TV are provided and there is a washer and dryer. If you forget anything chances are it’s in the welcome bag you receive and if not the host are only a convenient text away.I would recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a piece of home while enjoying the beautiful York Harbor area. You will truly have a wonderful stay.

Wonderful cozy cottage away from it all but close to everything!

My husband and I spent a week at Cape House and loved how super clean and cozy it was! Fully equipped and first rate service. The location can't be beat - it's close to everything you need or want yet perfectly secluded and quiet. Can't wait to go back!

Cute place with everything you need

We enjoyed our stay at the Capehouse. Everything was very clean and well thought out. They provided a nice gift of paper towels, coffee packet, and other goodies. Beds were comfortable and each room decorated cute. Great place!

Property and stay for us and the pets was excellent. Checkin was tedious as there was no wifi or cellular connection outside to retrieve VRBO emails. A six digit code was provided but the lockbox with keys was only 4 digits. Fortunately the local cream parlor shared their wifi. I then reached out to the the Salt and Shine team and they provided great support in a timely manner! Overall a great experience!

Nice cute and clean place

We enjoyed the Cape House. They provide a very nice welcome gift with various necessities and even some candy. So great to have a full washer and dryer to catch up on laundry too.

Cape House and Salt & Shine Team

The Cape House was cute, clean and welcoming and we enjoyed our stay despite the weather. The kitchen was fully stocked with dishes, cups, pans etc., there were air conditioners in all rooms, and the beds were comfortable. The Salt and Shine team communicated well and in detail and were quick to respond! We would stay here again!

The Best

We stayed at the Cape House for four nights. It was a wonderful place for two sisters coming to Maine to spend time with another sister and her family. They live right around the corner from the Cape House so it was the ideal place for us. The place is set up with everything you would need and it is immaculate. We were very comfortable there and have found a Maine retreat that we can return to year after year.

Quiet street in lovely York

Sweet, spacious, and quiet side-by-side duplex with many updates and modern touches. Walkable to multiple places of interest nearby. Operated by a third party property manager, the experience lacks personal touches, warmth, and charm. Very livable, clean, and excellent location.

Cape House & Salt and Shine were great!

Our first VRBO experience and it was great. Salt and Shine were great to deal with. Provided all the info we wanted and needed. Response to our inquiries were immediate and helpful. The Cape House was as described and fully furnished with everything that we could imagine, making it an easy stay.

Winter stay

The Cape house is in a great location of York village. The condo is great for a family or close friends. It is exactly as pictured very well appointed two bedroom condo. We were able to bring our dog, when going on vacation that is important to us. The team at Salt and Shine were fantastic, so accommodating and very quick to respond to any messages sent. Thank you Salt and Shine team we had a great few days in Maine!

Cape House = Charming House

Lovely stay! Quiet street, spacious back yard, and massive walk-in closets! A nice space for two adults and three young children. Laundry room is across from the front door. Imperative when coming home from the beach! Back doors open fully to the deck; a wonderful breeze for the dining area (we had fantastic weather!) Bedrooms didn’t feel crowded and overall the house was well cleaned upon arrival. Would recommend and would stay here again.

Cape House was a great rental! We are actually from York Maine but moved to NY three years ago. This property is in such a great area. Located on a quiet street but very close to the beach and everything you need. We walked to Harbor beach and Wiggly Bridge. It is about 2 miles to Long Sands Beach. The house was really nice, clean and well decorated. Plenty of space for my husband and I, our daughter and the dog. It was raining so we didn't use the back deck or yard but it looked nice. One thing to keep in mind is there is no phone service in that area. So when we were waiting for our access code to get in, I couldn't even get email. We had to drive around(toward Hannaford) to get service. Once you get on the WIFI you are good to go inside the house. We had a really fun weekend despite the rain, and look forward to staying here again.

Comfortable, quaint and quiet getaway with all the amenities

Our family of 6 (plus dog) stayed here for a week for a family funeral and found Daniele's property to be the perfect place for our needs. It was super close to York beach, which made it easy for us to relax and have a little fun when we needed to alleviate the sadness of the occasion. The shops in town (art, bagel and pizza!) were easy to walk to and delicious, although we found the kitchen well-stocked for the meals we decided to make. I especially appreciated the quiet of the neighborhood, comfortable beds, washer/dryer and backyard - great for the dog to stretch her legs and for star-gazing at night. Tasteful, calm and unfussy decor - we'd definitely stay again if/when we're back in the area.

Cape House

The Salt & Shine Team are amazing! They responded quickly to every question from the beginning of our booking. The house was clean, they left us a welcome gift, air conditioners in every room, soft white towels, suggestions for restaurants, huge back yard, quiet neighborhood, beautiful perennials and even pet waste bags! Will definitely recommend them to others!

Beach house

It was nice it was offered as a child proof house, with three under three years old, however a bit more child proofing would truly make this property young child friendly.
