Fodor's Expert Review The Yachtsman Hotel and Marina Club

59 Ocean Ave., Kennebunkport, Maine, 04046, USA Fodor's Choice

These chic bungalows at this water-side property a short walk from town have a hip beach-vibe design, private lawns that blur the distinction between indoors and outdoors, and harbor views. The Yachtsman is the perfect base for exploring the area on foot or by bike, kayak, standup paddleboard, canoe, or boat (each of which the hotel provides free of charge for guests), though you may just want to stay put once you step inside.

PROS

  • lots of amenities included in the rate
  • free shuttle service around town
  • large marble showers and luxe toiletries from Malin + Goetz

CONS

  • not on the beach
  • private lawns aren't exactly private with all the boats passing by
  • not family-friendly, but two rooms are pet-friendly
