Absolutely loved our stay at Captain’s Quarters! The owners were incredibly friendly and we just loved their attention to detail with jars full of contents to make smores and beach resources supplied if needed! Their property is beautiful and we felt very lucky to have found it!

Rental process was easy, and unit was very clean and quiet - it had everything we needed for a comfortable stay and was a great location for exploring the area - we took a couple of nice walks in the neighborhood, which was filled with stately old homes and very friendly people - would recommend this to anyone visiting the Kennebunk area as well as Kennebunkport, Wells and Ogunquit

Lovely and Cozy

The upstairs apartment in the carriage house was exactly as described. It was clean, homey, and the perfect spot for our weekend away. The outside was also beautiful and well kept. We would absolutely stay again!

Great stay!

This property was wonderful! Slightly removed from the downtown area so it was nice and quiet, but easily accessible to restaurants and shops. The hosts were very accommodating, providing us with anything we were missing. They also arranged for us to check in early so our two little kids could get an afternoon nap, which we greatly appreciated! Would definitely stay again - thank you!

Great property in the heart of Kennebunk!

Enjoyed our time with Amelia - awesome host and wonderful chef! Thanks to Michael for the warm welcome and for providing us with information about the Kennebunk area. Highly recommend getting tickets to the Ogunquit Playhouse if it's in season!

Stay at Captain's quarters

This was my husband and my first time to Maine and did not know what to expect. This was the perfect location for us to day trips to nearby sites. The hosts had beach passes for us to use which was amazing as it is quite expensive to park for any amount of time. There were bikes to use if we wanted, a fire pit complete with s'mores, a very accommodating hosts.

Better than advertised

We were in town for a wedding and my wife and I stayed in the upstairs of the cottage house with another couple. There was plenty of room, the apartment was clean, and the owners could not have been more helpful. If we get the chance to get back to Kennebunkport we will definitely be staying here again!!! Thank you Ron and Amelia!!!

Spacious, comfortable flat on beautiful property

My sister and I live far apart and chose this for our annual reunion. The bedrooms, bathroom, and common spaces are comfortably furnished and have all modern conveniences. Because it's part of (but detached from) a historic inn, the grounds are lovely and you have privacy but aren't isolated. All the attractions of Kennebunk and the coast are nearby, but it is not in the heart of tourist country. There is good coffee for the making. Our only suggestion would be to provide a few kitchen staples (salt, pepper, oil, vinegar) and add tea and maybe hot chocolate mix to the selection of hot beverages.
