We stayed in Kennebunkport for our yearly family vacation and were SO pleased with the property. Between the beautiful amenities, the proximity to downtown, and even the quality of the mattresses, we could not have been more pleased. Gia was a very gracious host who was always in communication with us both leading up to and during our stay. If/when we return to Kennebunkport next year, we will definitely be looking to see if this property is available!

We had a great weekend there

Very nice house with redone kitchen. Best suited for a couple with children- two additional bedrooms with bunks and trundle beds are very small if traveling with adults.
Small TV without standard cable.
Easy walk to downtown. Owner very kind and responsive.

This property was comfortable and clean, and was situated on a quiet side street that was walking distance to town. Unfortunately, not everything was in working order upon our arrival which affected the quality of our stay. Two days prior to check-in, the host informed us that the lock keypad on the front door was not working. Since there were six people in our group and we sometimes needed to come and go at different times, having a single set of keys to the side door was inconvenient. After our first night at the house, it was also clear that the dishwasher was non-functional. When we contacted the host about this on the second day of our stay, she told us that the necessary parts were ordered. No one arrived to repair the dishwasher during our stay. Washing dishes by hand was inconvenient, as neither a drying rack nor dish towels were provided. Finally, there was significant water damage and mold adjacent to the shower in the upstairs bathroom (not something that we would expect to be repaired during our stay, but evidence that the house could use some maintenance).

5-10 minute walk to all downtown restaurants. Quiet street. Clean home.

Enjoyed our stay very much! The house was clean and close to everything we wanted to do. Loved that it had a pack n play and toys for our toddler.
We did not love having to pack our own sheets and towels in our suitcase from Texas. Also, don’t love that it describes to house having two queen beds. The trundle bed wasn’t the most comfortable and did not fit the queen sheets we packed.
Loved everything else about our stay! Would be perfect if only one pair of adults and lots of kids were going!

Gia’s Kennebunkport home was beautiful and cozy for a great vacation.
Was walking distance to town and ocean. Check in process was easy.
Neighborhood was safe and very quiet
at night. Kitchen was stocked well.
With everything we needed to make our trip easy. Everything was extremely clean! Our family of 4 hopes to return again.

Gia was wonderful and responsive to our questions. The key code to the front door didn’t work but we remedied that immediately! The house was super clean and had everything you could need! It was an easy quick walk to downtown, just steps away from wonderful restaurants and shopping! We can’t wait to come back!

We had a nice time staying at the property. The home was clean and neat. Lovely space with a beachy vibe. Lovely patio where we watched the sun set on an unusually warm Nov afternoon.
The only minor drawbacks are that the kitchen didn’t have real plates, missing a rubber spatula, the light was broken in the dining room (which they warned us about), their wireless wasn’t set up correctly so we had to deal with that, no board games and lacking some side tables and furniture in the bedroom and living room that would have made it a bit nicer. The beds were extra firm if you like that and missing a headboard in one of the rooms so the pillows fly off the end. It is better suited for young families rather than three ladies on a weekend stay. Plenty of toys, cribs, etc which we didn’t need.
Overall it was a lovely home, very close to town and I’d definitely go back.

This place was VERY clean (which was much appreciated) and the main floor was much bigger than the photos look. The location was the perfect walking distance to everything we needed to get to for our family wedding! We recommend bringing everything you think you might need, for the various amenities in a house. Gia was easy to communicate with. And overall, we enjoyed our stay!

We loved this home within walking distance of kennebunkport. The beds were comfortable, living area spacious and well furnished. There were only 3 of us, but it was big enough to handle a few more kids or teenagers. Only one of the beds was a queen, the rest were single beds. Bring your own sheets and towels (I didn’t mind this). We would definitely return to this home if we come back to the area!

Overall I would recommend this property for an easy stay in a charming cottage and walkable to all the charm of Kennebunkport, with space for 2 cars alongside the house.
The first floor space (kitchen, dining, living area and 1 full bathroom) is updated and a nice open plan with an awesome gas fireplace.
Upstairs has a full and large bathroom. One bedroom with a queen and then two bedrooms set up more for kids overflow sleeping rather than a 2nd bedroom. (One room has a twin daybed and the other 3 twins. No nightstands or lamps) so my only criticism is that it’s not conducive to a group of adults having a friends weekend without feeling like they’re “bunking camp style.
The amenities of the property could be upgraded to help the experience feel more premium. All plates and drinking “glasses” were melamine/plastic, The “no sheets or towels provided” leads a bit to be desired (especially for guests flying in).
That said, most of this (plastic excluded) is published in the listing. I just think it’s such a charming house and location that I wish they would add a queen bed, some sheet/towel service and some adult glassware. Because I would stay in a heartbeat again if that was the case!
Thank you Gia for a lovely home and stay!

Fist off, communication with the owner was wonderful! The house is very nice. They did an nice job updating the house, but also keeping the historic charm (I believe the house was built in 1885 or so). The house has everything you need for a comfortable stay. There's a beautiful gas fireplace in the living room that is great! You can walk to just about any place down town, less than a mile away. Large bathrooms and the house is very clean.

Great spot for a weekend away. House was clean and well appointed with all we needed. Super easy to walk to town.
2.5
Comfy cozy home within a short walk to down town. The ceiling height in the living room was lower than expected, my 6'10" nephew would have a hard time in this home. For the average guest it caused no issues.
One of the bedrooms had a trundle bed rather than the expected queen size bed so my sheets where to small.

Gia's place is even better than the photos. It is very spacious and super clean. We were so comfortable for a 2-day girlfriends get-a-way. The home is quiet and a very short walk to town. I will definitely stay here again. Thanks Gia!

We were a group of three couples and three toddlers. This house was perfect for our group, even included a huge bin of toys for the kids to play with. The location was close and walkable to downtown. It looked like it was recently renovated and it was very charming. Looking forward to coming back! Thank you for opening up your beautiful home.

Stayed in Kennebunkport for 2 nights. There was plenty to do in the area and during this time of year it was perfect! The homeowners were very responsive and provided great instructions and details on the house prior to arriving. Also were very responsive answering questions. Would highly recommend!
