“Pleasant and welcoming”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 February 2012

At the last minute of the day we decided to stay in Kennebunkport and were very lucky that Judi and Walter had a room available (we got the last!). We were welcomed in, had a lovely chat with their daughter Johanna, and were treated as if they had all night to help us settle in. They made reservations for us to have dinner and were sure to give us a map with clear instructions to get to the restaurant. Breakfast was delicious!

“Great spot to unwind!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 February 2012

My husband and I wanted a couple of days away for our anniversary. This was a great spot. We felt very welcomed not only by a lovely room but by the cheese/dessert tray for tea time. After walking around Kennebunkport we warmed up by the fireplace in the room and enjoyed our wine before going out for dinner. The bed was very comfortable and the breakfast the next day was excellent.

“What a pleasant surprise!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 February 2012

I read all the reviews and jumped on a LivingSocial deal. We stayed two nights in room #16 in the main house. What a wonderful inn. Check in was easy and quick. The room was large and boasted a huge beautiful bed. Hair dryer and iron in the room along with two bathrobes. Being an old home, the closet space and bathroom were small, but sufficient. The gas fireplace was just great too. I was thrilled to be able to get a cup of coffee with the Keurig in the lobby early in the morning. Tea and hot chocolate were also available. There were two seatings for breakfast. It was just delicious both mornings.

The nice surprise was the nightly turndown service with mints on our beds. Additionally, there was a small carafe of milk, some chocolate cake, cheese, crackers and grapes waiting for us when we returned from dinner the first night. The second night, it was homemade cookies. Very nice touch.

There is a computer and printer in the upstairs hall as well as a small fridge. The rooms are all lovely and the owners very personable.

I would highly recommend this inn to anyone who loves the slower, pace and personal touches.

“Highly Recommended - Great Location, Amenities and Food”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 February 2012
2
people found this review helpful

We stayed at the Maine Stay Inn and Cottages this past weekend for 2 nights. Even though it was very much the offseason for Kennebunkport, ME, it was a true pleasure staying here. I'd highly recommend this Inn and we'll make sure to stay there when we return to the area.

People: Judi, Walter, Duke and everyone else at the Inn were friendly, welcoming, and knowledgeable about the area. When we first arrived, the first thing we got was cookies, tea and an overview of the area/recommendations for where to eat. Their top priority was not simply for us to pay, check in, and get out of their way. They wanted to make sure our stay started out perfectly. At breakfast each morning and each afternoon when Duke stopped by the room with cookies and milk, they were all still a pleasure to talk with. We couldn't ask for better hosts!

Amenities: We stayed in a Cottage with a gas fireplace and 2-person Jacuzzi tub. The cottage was beautiful. The fire was warm. The jacuzzi was bubbly and great. Everything was extremely clean. The cottages look modest from the outside, especially compared to the beautiful house, but ours really was great. And it's nice to not have to worry about noise as much as you might when you're inside the house of a B&B.

Food: We had breakfast both mornings, and each was totally unique and absolutely delicious. Each breakfast came with fruit salad, juice and coffee. And then each morning, Judi had baked a different bread. The first morning, we had a delicious Asian baked egg dish with scallions and water chestnuts. The second morning, we had eggs, sausage and a baked apple. It all felt homemade gourmet and we cleaned our plates. I'm still thinking about that bread!

Room Tip: We stayed in Cottage 1 - gas fireplace and 2-person jacuzzi. You can't go wrong with that room...

“Relaxing”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 February 2012

people found this review helpful

This was our first time staying at a B&B. We stayed in cottage # 7. The room was very clean and spacious. Loved the Keurig coffeemaker in the room, we were able to have coffee at our time, they supplied the kcups,sugar, and cream. We looked forward to the breakfast every morning. I am quite the cook at home and I have to say I was very impressed with the presentation and taste of the breakfast that was delivered to our room each morning. We took advantage of the spa package, they made all of our reservations at the The Cottage Breeze Day spa, it was a relaxing afternoon, the staff there was great! Walter the owner was very friendly, gave us suggestions for dinner, thank goodness for his help because this time of year everything is closed. I highly recommend the place.
