This was our third stay here and we already booked our fourth for next year. It’s right on Route 1 which makes everything easily accessible, and easy biking distance to Moody and North beach. The beds are comfortable, everything is super clean, and the hosts are super friendly and very responsive - the perfect jumping off point.

Excellent location! Hosts were communicative, knowledgeable, and friendly. My kids (and dog) and I loved the convenience to town and the beach, and the surfing lessons (with Henry) were an extra bonus. The apartment was roomy and charming. A trip we will remember. Hopefully we'll be back again soon.

4 days at the beach in Family

The place was very great! We walked every day to a beautiful beach. The apartment had a great size for a family of 4. The owners were very helpful and friendly. We really recommend this apartment and we hope to come back.

Adequate base for area travel

The hosts were friendly and helpful. I do, however feel misled about the description of the property. Namely, it does not have washer/ dryer or dishwasher. Had I known this, I wouldn’t have chosen to stay elsewhere given that we were traveling with kids. The property overall needs updates and if you are looking for privacy it is non-existent.

Excellent stay

Spacious and very comfortable. Perfect place to crash after day at beach. The apartment is right above a surf shop where you can take lessons or rent bikes, kayaks, and wetsuits (perfect if you want to spend time in the water on days when ocean temp drops). The host was flexible, considerate, and a great communicator. We had a fantastic time and would absolutely book again. This was one of our favorite stays ever. You’re just steps from beautiful beaches, with easy access to day trips to Ogunquit, Kennebunk, Kittery, and Portland. We really loved visiting the nearby Scoop Deck for ice cream after the beach. Also enjoyed perusing the DVD and VHS collection when relaxing at the rental. I took a walk down Furbish road every morning to stroll on beach and there is a ton of interesting bird activity in the saltmarsh on the way, too.

Great Place to Stay

Conveniently located right on Route 1, you can get anywhere quickly. The layout of the place is great, plenty of room for the three of us. Very clean, and everything is in good shape. Vince and Bob are awesome - so friendly, helpful, and kind people. They responded to any inquiry amazingly fast which was helpful, and were fun to talk with. Although you’re above a business, you don’t hear or notice it, even when they’re busy. Overall great experience, will be back.

We had a great stay. We loved the space the apartment provided as it gave our teens their own space and nobody felt cramped. Bob and Vic were wonderful hosts and we enjoyed chatting with them when they were at the shop. Being able to walk to Moody Beach was amazing and we loved how that beach had no crowds. We will definitely stay here again because of the laid-back vibe the hosts created, the accessibility to the beach and restaurants, and the comfort of the apartment.

Host profile image
Wheels N Waves has been in business since 1974 and is Maine's oldest surf shop. In 2013 Wheels N Waves was named Maine's Best Surf Shop by Downeast Magazine.
In 2011 after many years of renting, we were able to purchase this great new location, which has a 2 bedroom apartment on the 2nd floor. In 2013 we opened our 2nd location in downtown Ogunquit and walking distance to Ogunquit Beach. The Ogunquit location is smaller, but still offers rentals and sales of most things we offer in Wells.
