Holiday rentals with outdoor seating in Boothbay Harbor

We thoroughly enjoyed our peaceful and quiet time of rest at The Rising Tides. The setting is absolutely serene. It’s very secluded and quiet, the perfect place for a week of rest and relaxation. We went hiking on the Cliff Trail (15 minutes away and a very nice hiking trail), watched the sunrise at the Lands End store on Bailey island (15-20 minutes), and kayaked in the cove. The grill was very nice and we enjoyed cooking on it regularly. The place was very clean and ready on our arrival. The host communicated very clearly. You will need to follow her driving directions as they are very clear and helpful. In our four days there we only saw 1 neighbor - and that was as we were leaving on the weekend. There’s a grocery store only 15 minutes away and we were able to stock up on our way there. Really, this was one of our favorite places we’ve ever stayed. We really enjoyed having a few options of things to do while also being able to just do nothing on our vacation in a quiet place.

Easy 5 stars! Phillip was kind, proactive and responsive. The space, while quaint and simple, was clean, had all the essentials and, it was perfect for a week visiting my grandparents/ working remote! Not to mention my dogs loved being a half mile from the Bath dog park. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a Maine mid-coast getaway!

Great spot for a private getaway! Hosts were very friendly, flexible and ensured we had everything we needed. Would absolutely visit again and recommend 100%

We had a great stay at Chris’s house! It has all the modern conveniences but is warm and comfortable, and fits well in the neighborhood. The location right on the cove has great views from the living area and the bedroom. The house is very well appointed with comfortable furniture, a well-stocked kitchen and a great king bed. Heating system worked well and water pressure was good. Filtered water from the refrigerator was a plus. Washer/dryer came in handy, and parking was easy. Boothbay Harbor is quiet in the off-season but it was great to not have crowds and traffic. It’s an easy walk to downtown and some restaurants and shops were open. We had breakfast at Woodsong Market (great coffee too!) and dinners at the Boathouse and Brady’s - both were very good. The house was also a good home base to visit other towns - Southport, Bath, Brunswick, Rockland and Belfast. Thanks again Chris for sharing your terrific home!

The house and yard were beautifully done and extremely clean. Great deck and views. Close to shops and downtown area. Thank you!

Perfect in every way! I have stayed at multiple air BnB’s and nothing compares to this house! Pictures do not do this place justice!! The location is awesome, secluded with a great view. One thing that stood out to me other than the awesome view and being secluded is that the house is stocked with everyday household essentials, other air BnBs I have stayed at never had the house stocked they way that this one does! I highly recommend this house to anyone that wants to visit south port!

Quinn and Katya had a beautiful home on the most serene island next to Boothbay Harbor. My family and I stayed here for a long weekend and loved having this as our base. All 10 of us comfortably fit downstairs when hanging out as well as outdoors on their large deck. The walk down to the bay was short and quite the spot to sit and look out. The house came stocked with everything we could need and more including wood for the wood burning stove that we used when the house was cold upon arrival and a fully stocked kitchen (pots, pans, utensils, dishes, spices) so we could make our own lobster dinner one night. We were really happy that there was 2 master suites especially since one was located on the first floor which was perfect for my parents who are in their 70s. Overall, we had no complaints and would happily stay here again if we were back in Maine. Thank you so much for opening your home to us!

We loved our stay (late May, 2025). The weather did not cooperate but the house was perfect. Thank you Debbi!

We had a great stay at Sumners place. It's location is very cool being right downtown but at the same time it is quiet and peaceful. He has it set up with everything you need and more. We appreciated his friendliness and great communication!

My family and I had another great stay at Kathleen’s. We arrived and were so grateful for a clean and comfortable stay. We cooked lobster and were so happy to see that Kathleen’s kitchen had everything we needed. Excited to go back a third time!

Erika’s place was great! It was close to everything and was a nice sanctuary to return at night after a long day of sightseeing. We were also able to use the state park pass that was provided to visit local state parks in the area. We would definitely stay here again.

Boo and Jonathan’s place is the definition of “the perfect air bnb”. This place truly felt like home - it was well designed, inviting, and charming. The small details (such as the delicious homemade pumpkin bread), the cozy blankets, fresh flowers and binder of local recommendations were all noticed and appreciated. We had the most wonderful stay - thank you!

Beautiful, quaint spot! We had a very quick stopover but it was perfect! We thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub after a long day on the road. Would definitely recommend Ren’s place!

We absolutely loved our stay here! The location was perfect, right in town and right by the water. Lissette was very attentive, gave us a coupon for the place we were going to dinner in town, and then we mentioned we were wanting to do a bonfire and she started it for us! We loved sitting on the private dock and enjoying the river views and being able to walk to get breakfast, lunch, or dinner in town. Highly recommend staying here!

A lovely place to stay in Portland’s East End. Great location in a very quiet and walkable neighborhood. (I happily did not need a car during my visit.) The apartment is great, with a comfy bed, smart TV and a nice little patio too. And you’re just steps from the Eastern Promenade park, which is one of Portland’s best amenities imo and leads to a beach, waterfront trail, dock w/ kayak rentals, etc. Jennifer was a very kind host; thank you!

This was by far the best Airbnb I have ever stayed in. It was a perfect amount of space, which was beautifully curated down to the finest detail. The entire space and experience is clearly a labor of love. We felt very comfortable and at home. Emily and Mark clearly went out of their way to think of EVERYTHING a guest might need. I would even say the photos don't do it justice. The refrigerator was stocked with snacks and breakfast food, there was a dress steamer in addition to an iron, there were small toiletry additions and robes. The bed was incredibly comfortable and the whole process was super simple and easy. I would highly recommend you stay here and if we are ever in Maine again I will make a point of coming back to Emily and Mark's place.

Great stay

Very nice stay! The location is perfect, everything you need is on site. I recommend it!

Awesome place. Would book in a heartbeat again! Alyssa rocks too! Loved everything about this stay.

We enjoyed our stay at Tyson’s. Lot’s of extra touches like fresh flowers, bottled waters, and ground coffee ready to go. Tyson had mini shampoos and conditioners in the bathroom too. The house was spotless. Our family was very comfortable for 3 days. The location being next to the freeway is noisy more so outside than inside but the AC unit fans covered it up well at night. And…..It did not take away from how much we enjoyed our stay whatsoever. Great noodle house and coffee shop within walking distance.

This was a beautifully decorated space. The location near the beach was perfect! Cute little spot.

Great location, clean place, and very responsive hosts. We loved being within walking distance to so much!

You cannot beat the location with this rental. We love coming to Willard Beach with our pup, and when our old go-to BNB stopped renting we were so worried we wouldn’t find another. But this condo worked out so perfectly in terms of location (across the road from both Scratch Bakery and Willard Scoops, comfortable walk to the beach with several entrance options) and the actual comfort of the condo itself. The proximity to the beach was really a plus for us, as we didn’t have to get up as early to make the dog friendly beach hours! Host is responsive, and any household items (eg. soap, coffee filters) that were missing from the condo we could easily run down to get from Hannaford. The downsides: It is on a second floor walk up, which may be challenging for those with mobility issues. Hand railing is odd too. Bit pricey, couldn’t swing a full week this time around as the price shot up dramatically when I added Friday to the duration. But overall, really lovely!

We’ve stayed here 3x so far and will always come back. This place is such a unique stay with live music right below. You can open the balcony doors and see and hear the ocean. The home is always clean and feels very homey. We truly love it here and will always choose to stay at this airbnb.
