Great location, live music in the bar across the water (til 2200), and kitchens if you get tired of eating out!

Nice....but not full service hotel
Nice...but buyer beware....the suite we order Rm 400 was nice, but it was detached from the main building, with a front desk that leaves at 4pm. None of this is related in the hotels.com site. We luckily arrived at 3:45pm but the front desk person was packing up to leave. If we would have arrived at 4:30 we would have gone to the "sister" hotel 2 miles done the road to check in. No hotel services....if you need an extra amenity after 4pm...no luck.

We absolutely adored our room! We had a lovely view of the water, parking was easy (although tight!), and the ease of walking everywhere was amazing! Next time, we want to stay in the main building! Also, the food and drinks at the restaurant were top-tier!! The best lobster roll I've ever had!

Really nice place…. Perfect location… all staff excellent…. Love how walkable things were… lots of options. Only minus I can give was the “noise” of the blower on the room air conditioner… which really wasn’t horrible

Last minute stop in kennebunkport in Nov! So needless to say few restaurants were open. Only thing was a super minimal continental breakfast. Beautiful views from everywhere and Kristine at the front desk was amazing. She made checking in so easy. Thank you! We’re hoping to return soon!

Enjoyed our stay. Only issue we had was that our deadbolt on our door didn’t work, nor could it as it didn’t line up to the slot in the door jam.

This was our first time at The Boathouse, we loved the convenient location and being able to walk everywhere. We parked upon arrival and didn’t use our vehicle until we were headed home. There are several dining options around but the restaurant on premise was by far our favorite in terms of atmosphere and food.
As others mentioned, you can sometimes hear doors opening and closing out in the hallway but it was nothing that disrupted our sleep. We will absolutely be booking this hotel again in the future!

Valet's help and Thursday night bar staff were excellent. Front desk person needs customer service training to make people feel welcome. Or, maybe she was having a bad 24 hrs?
