We took a long weekend the King's Port Inn. The rooms were spotless. Dated, made us feel like we had entered a time warp back to the 1970's in a good way. the staff was very attentive. we were able to add on the coupons for the local rest. as we went along. The only draw back was the wi-fi... More

I know- going to Kennebunk in the winter is silly but my friend and I wanted to get away and visit a different area in Maine (we usually go to the White Mountains). I found the King's Port Inn on Tingo and decided to book two days. The location is fantastic. It's near (walking distance) to several cute shops, a... More

My wife and I were passing through on our way to see the fall leaves and decided to stay in Kennebunk. The hotel is nice, we stayed in the main building and our room was very comfortable. The 2 person shower with jacuzzi tub was the best part of the stay. The only down side was we stayed on the... More

We really enjoyed our stay at the King's Port Inn. Our room had a king-sized bed (the mattress could be upgraded a bit), a two-person jacuzzi tub with adjacent dual showers, and a gas fireplace. It was such a perfect oasis on a cold winter night! The location was convenient to downtown shopping, beaches, and restaurants (we walked to Allison's... More

In planning a last minute winter weekend trip to Maine, I was open minded about where we’d end up and just wanted a hotel with a Jacuzzi for at least one of the nights we were away. I am SO glad my searches led me to the King’s Port Inn. Our stay here was exactly what we wanted. The King... More

Could not pick a better spot to walk to restaurants and shoppes. Wine bar , yea! , across the street, several restaurants, and shopping within a block. Hotel had charm, bed was comfortable.

We spent one night in a jacuzzi room. It was very comfortable and clean. The jacuzzi was a real bonus after a long travel day and drive and the extra $25 for the jacuzzi was worth it. The staff was very polite, professional and helpful. They recommended and made dinner reservations for us at Mabels Lobster House. Good location near... More

I was surprised to see the price for this hotel, as it is so conveniently located near everything you want to visit in Kennebunkport. The state of the inn when we arrived confirmed my suspicions. It is very outdated and in desperate need of a hard core scrubbing from top to bottom. The dirty rugs lining the entrance as you... More
