Beach house holiday rentals in Maine

We loved the location but we were already familiar with the area. It was so much fun watching all the different birds fishing for food. Seagulls, eagles. ducks etc. The house is set very close to the highway so the street noise could be annoying. If you are an early riser it's not a problem. There are no bedrooms on the ground floor so you need to be able to do stairs and they are quite steep. It is one of our favorite spots on the island and we would stay there again.

We had a great week at the cabin! The view is amazing and it was so relaxing. Courtney was very responsive and attentive. Highly recommend for a cozy getaway in a beautiful setting.

a wonderful place to stay.

All the previous reviews indicated we would love this location, the setting, the caring of the host....we were inspired to join Airbnb to just be able to stay here!!! The beauty of the surroundings is remarkable and we admire the care taken to keep it in its refined natural state. We are so thankful we took the description and reviews to heart! We now have another great Maine memory!

We came here for a private getaway on our honeymoon and it did not disappoint. The price was a bit much, but for such a special time I felt it was worth it at the time I booked, and worth it it certainly was. beautiful, quiet, serene, it was perfect for a getaway. I would absolutely recommend, and I already have, this stay. 10/10

Simply magical! Cozy and fun space. We enjoyed watching eagles and ospreys fish, seals pop their heads up, and even an adorable family of foxes from the comfort of the living room! Kitchen had all necessities for cooking most meals at home. A nice trail for walking down the road and an awesome beach where the kids threw stones and searched for seaglass each afternoon. We were all sad to leave!

this was our first time using airbnb and Patrick’s place was perfect! Great location and breathtaking views! He was very helpful and accommodating. House definitely had the 70s charm going which we found fun and unique! The amount of kitchen gadgets was seriously impressive! the spaces were all well utilized.

I wanted a peaceful place by the water to unwind and Maggie’s home nailed it. Every aspect of our stay exceeded expectations. The deck views were amazing—islands, ospreys hunting, and a duck and her ducklings feeding along the shoreline. At low tide we poked around in the sand at the bottom of the rocks, and could have easily walked out to the center of the bay but it was juuuust a bit chilly for us. Easy to drive, park and walk along beach on the Atlantic side and explore. We didn’t have time to kayak but hope to be back to give it a go. So much beauty and nature, but with all the amenities that make it easy to relax. Maggie was responsive, and she and her family obviously care very much for the property. Check the propane BEFORE you plan to grill :), and bring flip flops to easily get from the house to the grotto (which was so comfy and cozy) and back again.

Very nice place, everything was clean and smelling good, we felt right at home! Comfortable beds except the single one which we could feel the springs. Expensive parking everywhere near the beach, be advised, but free parking at the house. Everyone at the place was friendly. The only thing mmissing would be coffee pods, for the rest, everything was there!

This was the perfect home base for exploring various parts of the Maine coast. Beds were comfy, and each room had a wall unit to make it the temperature you like. Our kids loved being upstairs in the 3 beds room and having their own space. WiFi worked great, and that was with 7 of us on it doing various things - adults working, kids streaming. Would definitely stay here again.

We felt like at home. The house is located in a private property with swimming pool and tennis courts. It’s very clean and very peaceful. Just a clarification about the description : there’s no bathroom in the basement. Then if you come with elderly people or very young kids, it could be annoying. If you like cooking, the kitchen is very well equipped. We´ll keep a very good memory of our stay in Ducktrap Retreat during the colorful foliage season.

We had a wonderful time! Going during off season was very peaceful and quiet will definitely book again in the future!

Cottage 2 br, well equipped kitchen and nice extra porch enclosed and furnished beachy decor. Backyard comfortable adirondack chairs for sitting. Near to beach with free parking if spots are available. plenty of restaurants and grocery nearby. Last cottage in the row and was quiet. Pool and hot tub on property. Would rent again.

We had a wonderful stay. The house was spotless and beautiful with a fully stocked kitchen, super comfortable beds, and great amenities. Our kids loved the heated pool , hot tub, board games, and the easy walk to the beach. The location is also great and close to lots of restaurants and shopping. Stephanie was very kind, helpful, and quick to respond to any questions.

We absolutely loved our stay at The Lazy Lobster! A beautiful home, clean, large & perfect for a big group. Andrew was wonderful. He was always responsive & helpful! Plus the location was fantastic. We walked to breakfast, shops, the beach, dinner & bars everyday with no issues. We will definitely be coming back!

We absolutely loved our stay! The home is gorgeous, light and airy, and so comfortable for our group! You can't beat the location across from the beach and quiet street for walking. The pool and hot tub were also so nice. We would highly recommend and would love to stay there again!

Beautiful location on the water with stunning views, tranquil and peaceful with plenty of osprey and bald eagle sightings (there is a nest across the bay on Pettingill Island visible from the property). The house is very well-appointed and well-decorated. Irena was very communicative and responsive, and the house directions are clear and complete. We would stay there again. Thank you!

We love Harpswell and Timothy's home is a real gem. The house is beautiful and so comfortable! The view from the deck is absolutely amazing. We had a great week--we especially enjoyed kayaking. Timothy was so friendly and answered all my questions. We hope to return!

Our host, was incredibly welcoming and responsive. They provided clear check-in instructions and even shared local tips that made our stay even better. Overall, I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone visiting the area!

Mandy was friendly and responsive from the time I expressed interest in the property through checkout. The house and property are spacious and the views of the water are spectacular. The kitchen is well appointed, plenty of room for our family if 5 to spread out, and steam shower was a true bonus upgrade.

Erica was SO accommodating and helpful. She responded extremely quick anytime we messaged and gave us tips and recommendations. Her home is adorable and we really enjoyed being there. It had everything we needed! Only thing to note is that while her place is 20 minutes from Acadia’s entrance it is a big park so anytime we were going to a hike it did take more like 40 minutes to get to it, just worth a mention! Highly recommend her place!

What can I say about Salt Air, other than SPECTACULAR! This is one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever stayed. The house is pristine and spotless and the location is beyond beautiful. Mark is an amazing host, he goes above and beyond in communication and in providing such a lovely home to stay in. We were looking for peace and tranquility and we found it in spades here. I could go on for days about how perfect this place is, but instead of listening to me, you should just book your trip to come here! You certainly won’t regret a single moment! Thank you Mark!

This was our second stay and it was such a treat. We had everything we needed to unplug and relax. Bath is a great place to explore but we loved our spot on the porch!

Gorgeous location, comfortable house and amenities and friendly and responsive hosts. Couldn’t have asked for a more wonderful quiet vacation spot close to Boothbay Harbor!
