This may be our very favorite place of all. The hosts are warm and accommodating, the rooms are cozy and comfortable and the food is absolutely outstanding. It reminds us of a farm house and sitting on the front porch is very pleasant. It is convenient to the village and walking distance to the ocean.

My wife and I recently had a fantastic stay at the Green Heron Inn. Dan (one of the owners) was incredibly hospitable and accommodating, and really made us feel comfortable from the very beginning. Our room was clean and cosy, and had a great view over the water. Breakfast in the morning was particularly superb. All in all, highly recommended... More

We hit Kennebunk Port this October for some incredible Maine Fall Foliage! I chose the Green Heron Inn because it looked very New-England-cute (!) was close to the village, and also close to the coast-line. I wanted to be able to easily go for a beautiful coastal walks. Dan made the booking process a real delight - he was really... More

I was sooooooo excited for my stay at the Green Heron Inn after reading all of the reviews, but I can't say that it lived up to all of the wonderful reviews OR the steep price. We stayed in the cottage because we thought it would give us extra "living" space to entertain and hang out with the others in... More

The cottage is a 2-bedroom unit. The downstairs room has a queen size bed and the upstairs has a double and a twin bed. The downstairs room also has a kitchenette. We believe it has all the amenities to make the stay comfortable. Obviously there is not much room to hold more than 3 people in the room, let alone... More

I have to start by saying that the breakfast here was spectacular -- I heard that it was once a restaurant and that the breakfast was packed; the owners should return to that business. The rooms and public space in this small inn were clean, but in desperate need of updating. Our room was the worst -- in the very... More

We do have 3 rooms that are pet-friendly and we do not allow the pets in the public area. But we feel that the pets should at least be allowed to sit on the front porch with their owners. With the escalating prices of the beach passes, and in order to keep our prices competitive, we no longer offer free... More

Hello, We stayed this weekend with my in-laws who had never been to Maine. This inn is true Kennebunkport Maine. It is not overly romantic or Victorian which my husband was grateful for, while I still enjoyed the charm of a seaside cottage. Relaxed and friendly the Innkeepers were very accommodating and attentive. Being a dog-friendly property I will be... More

We came for the first time during the hottest week of the summer. Everything was cool, calm, and collected at The Green Heron. Food, service, fellow travellers, everyone and everything was lovely. We are going back again this summer! It was really a great place to take our doxie for the first time. He was made to feel very welcome... More

My dad and I spent 2 nights in the little "Shannon" cottage. It was just perfect. Lots of space, comfortable beds, quiet little cottage and a wonderful host. Dan was very helpful, and the food was a real gourmet treat. We kept forgetting to do it but could have come back in the afternoon for tea and fresh baked pastries.... More

The Green Heron was a lovely surprise! We had a separate cottage on the property which was perfect for our family of 4, and our hosts were very welcoming and knowledgeable. The breakfasts were wonderful, and they have many, many, many return guests - always a good sign of great hospitality. The cozy, family atmosphere was wonderful and is so... More

Overall had a great stay at this B&B. Nice and friendly innkeepers. The only downside for me (since I am a sensitive sleeper) was waking up every time anyone flushed the water in their room. It might be expected in older houses. Otherwise-highly recommended for friendliness, cleanliness, and good location!
