Beautiful BRAND NEW, fully-renovated, large and most luxurious vacation home, with 2800 square feet, 4-5 bedrooms with 3 KING beds, 2 DOUBLE beds, and a private den with a huge QUEEN sleeper sofa. 3.5 baths, extremely luxurious ensuite master bedroom. A few blocks from this house and only 9 minutes to DT Portland! Listing ID 1660664.

Ready for spring 2020 reservations, this beautiful 7 Bedroom, 5 Bath property offers a very private setting, yet is so close to one of Portland's prettiest beaches. Only 15 minutes to downtown Portland! Perfect for large family reunions, corporate retreats, bachelor and bachelorette groups, rehearsal dinners and other events.

4. Also in Willard Beach: #4019326, with 3 bedrooms, fantastic ocean views from many windows and from the patio, 1600 square feet, 1.5+ baths. Sleeps up to 8 people.

This beautiful, newly renovated bungalow in the WIllard Beach neighborhood is only 6-7 minutes and a $5-$8 Uber ride into downtown Portland. Only 3.5 blocks to beautiful Willard Beach and 4 blocks to Scratch Baking Co.

Portland was named by Thrilist as "The #1 City in the country to spend the weekend" and "The 2018 Restaurant City of the year in US" by Bon Appetit, plus years ago, "The Foodiest Small City in the Country" (also by Bon Appetit). Also rated the US' best drinking city, with a burgeoning Microbrewery Scene. South Portland and Portland were recently named in the list of top dessert cities in the US!

The house has been fully renovated to the studs (with a new second floor added)! Completed in August 2016 by a regionally famous designer, the renovation has been featured on numerous websites, including "Cottage Living", "Farmhouse Tours", "Remodelaholic" and "Hooked on Houses"! It has 4-5 Bedrooms plus a sleeping loft and 2 full Bathrooms. It's cozy for a small group but can sleep up to 14 guests very comfortably in bedrooms with large beds plus a very comfortable sofa bed in a private den with a door. A high-quality Serta Sleeper sofa bed is located in a small private room with a flatscreen TV (and also with a door) on the first floor and is not in an open public area. This home is perfect for multigenerational family or gatherings, with the open floor plan and multiple bedrooms, but it's cozy enough for smaller groups.

No expense was sparred in furnishing and outfitting this beautiful new vacation home. The home is perfect for couples on vacation together, with two bedrooms and a full bath on the first floor and two large bedrooms, a sleeping loft for 2 and a full spa bathroom on the second floor.

The house also has been set up to accommodate large families very comfortably. We recently installed two on-demand hot water heaters so you never run out of hot water and there is never a need to pace showers or your watch your hot water usage. The kitchen is appointed with large dishware sets, glassware and all utensils, in addition to numerous pots and pans and tons of small appliances. We also provide a large array of fun and colorful plates and cups for kids and also children's scaled silverware to match the adult sets. In addition, we have an abundance of children's furniture in the home and many special toys, such as a wooden kitchen with pots and pans, a large wooden grocery store (stocked with groceries, a scanner, conveyer belt, a register), a kid's Weber grill with accessories, a table and 2 chairs, set for a pretend dinner, a wooden trainset on a "train city" rug, a private little tea room, scaled just for little ones, with a table and two chairs set for tea service, outdoor kids' furniture, sand buckets and shovels and so much more.

The all-new mattresses are fantastic; the bed linens are all luxurious 100% Egyptian Cotton Percale; and we provide plenty of huge and thick and fluffy bath sheets for everyone. Please feel free to ask for more details and photos of the supplies and the well-stocked kitchen!

The house has been decorated and furnished in a beautiful combination of a Pottery Barn and Urban Farmhouse style, with an abundance of very comfy furniture, fantastic all-new high-end mattresses and unique antiques, primitives and architectural artifacts.

Wonderful, Light Filled, Family Home
This home was perfect for hosting our family Thanksgiving dinner. The kitchen had every item I needed and more. There is a small room in the front that is a great "away" space for family members who need some quiet time. My 14 month old grandson and his parents enjoyed the little play area behind the couch that was equipped with a toy kitchen. The house was filled with light from three sides which made it the perfect late fall get away. Marilys kept in contact about our arrival plans and was accommodating and flexible. I highly recommend this listing.

great spot for a work retreat
I booked this house for my colleagues while they were in town on a work retreat. The home is spacious, immaculately clean, and very well-appointed. This is a great spot in South Portland.

Stylish and well appointed house in great location.
Recent stay with husband and 10 month old baby. House was extremely well equipped and very clean. Kitchen had everything that we could have asked for. Marilys provided us with a pack and play and two high chairs (one we took to a restaurant and one for the house) which was incredibly helpful. House was very comfortable - exactly as pictured - probably has everything you could possibly need in a rental house. Very clean and very tasteful. Marilys provided a very very extensive guide for the area which was very helpful. She also had a freshly baked cake on arrival and was readily available for assistance. We were able to walk to the beach as well as the bakery in town every morning. Portland is an easy 10 to 15 minute drive. Cape Elizabeth is also a quick 10 minute drive to the lighthouse and beaches. If we travel to the area again we would definitely stay at one of Marilys properties. Thank you!

Charming house, perfect location
This was the perfect house for my family and I. When we arrived the house was clean and there was a freshly baked cake waiting for us! The location of the house was perfect for a walk to the beach or to town to the bakery and ice cream shop. The beds were very comfortable, the kitchen well appointed and plenty of dining room sitting for a big group. The little front sunroom was also a great place to sit and read a book and relax. Marilys was a wonder host and ensured we had everything we had for our stay. She also put together an amazing guide for the area which was super helpful since we were not from the area. I would definitely recommend this to friends and would stay again if I were to come back.

About the host

Hosted by Marilys Regueiro, owner of Luxury Getaways Portland

Host profile image
After 15 years in a corporate career, I wanted to turn what I love most into a career. I have always been passionate about houses, interior decorating, hosting dinner parties and hosting friends and family overnight in my home. Owning vacation rental properties seemed like the perfect way to combine my passions into a career and I absolutely love the career I have created for myself!

My husband and I moved to Maine purely for lifestyle, knowing that I wanted to pursue owning and managing vacation rental homes as a career, and we began by purchasing two homes with ocean views in 2005. We purchased our third vacation rental home in 2015, this home in 2016, and our fifth vacation renal home, #1112052, in 2017, #1660664 in 2019; and we are about to introduce our largest vacation rental in mid-April, 2019. We love our vacation homes and love hosting guests and sharing what we know about our wonderful city and fantastic state of Maine.

Why they chose this property

I have been a longtime fan of a locally famous home designer and had dreamed of one day buying one of her homes. When this home was made available for sale, I knew it would be the ideal vacation rental home for several reasons. The neighborhood is amazing; the beach is gorgeous and the and the walkability to several really good restaurants, bakeries and gourmet food shops, in addition to Willard Beach down the street, made the location perfect. It's also so close to downtown Portland but in a much more peaceful location. We had just one year prior purchased another vacation rental home in the neighborhood (#4019326) and it had been very popular, so we knew this home would be the perfect home for our guests who wanted to be in the neighborhood but needed more space, more bedrooms, more bathrooms and more beds.

We have since purchased a third vacation home in the neighborhood that was redone by the same designer who renovated this home. That property (#1112052) is our largest home and it has four bedrooms, 2.5 baths and ocean views--it's a few blocks from this house in the same neighborhood and is only 150 yards from the beach. It's located right in between our other two Willard Beach vacation homes. We purchased the property as our near-future family downsize and it's fantastic! We can't wait to move in but are thrilled to be offering it to our guests until then.

What makes this property unique

There are many unique benefits of this home that make it an ideal vacation home, whether you are a small group, or a large multi-generational family.

The home feels cozy and open at the same time and I frequently host groups as small as two couples and as large as 16! Everyone seems to love it. The interior of the home and the tall ceilings and open floor plan and layout make it feel roomy, but there are different conversations areas that are also cozy, whether you have a small family/small group of friends or a large group.

It is warm and cozy for small groups and it also provides a great set up for large groups for several reasons. One is that the floor plan is open and spacious on the first floor, with 3 separate but conneced living spaces. There is room for a lot of comfy/oversized furniture for large groups to gather and we also have also separate, smaller living spaces to cozy up with a good book or for a more private conversation with one or two others.

The layout of the bedrooms and bathrooms also makes it ideal for couples or multigenerational families sharing the home.

There are two bedrooms separated by a full bathroom with a tub/shower on the first floor and then another two bedrooms with a very large spa bathroom on the second floor that features a deep soaking tub and a large shower.

Each floor has a bedroom with a king-sized bed and each floor also has a bedroom with a queen bed. There is a large "family" bedroom on the second floor, which is also the perfect "slumber party" bedroom, with a queen bed, a double bed and a single bed (upon request). Adjacent to that room is an open loft space with two twin beds.

On the first floor, we have a small den, which features a very comfortable standard/double size Serta sleeper sofa. I have a memory foam pad for it and it is very comfortable. That room has a tv and a coffee table that can be removed and it's very small and cozy. It is off of the living room and has the privacy of a door.
