Holiday rentals with beach access in Bristol

I love Maine's working waterfront and even though my stay was in the off season there was a wonderful glimpse into our fishing economy and the hard work it takes to keep it happening. The quality of light in the unit was amazing, and viewing the moon across the water was stunning. Easy to access all that the midcoast has to offer within an easy ride, to Rockland and Damariscotta and Boothbay and Wiscasset -- my favorite spots. Beautiful places nearby to hike and explore. Onsite staff people Debbie and Blair were wonderful; when I had an issue with the internet -- it was fixed quickly. Unit was well equipped for a person who loves to cook. Also having a bathtub in a waterfront apartment was a plus since many don't have them. Clean, comfortable, safe-feeling -- all one could want in a Maine coastal vacation. Wish I could have stayed longer but instead I'll just plan to go back again.

As described! Located right behind Farnsworth Museum and walking distance to Main St. Had everything we needed in the kitchen, bedroom and bathroom. Rosemary was very prompt in responding to questions. We had total privacy with easy parking. Nice upper deck for breakfast and a sitting area in the yard below. Main bed was super comfy. There’s a daybed in living room. (However, the daybed mattress may not be comfy for an adult.)

My sister and I had a great stay at David and Kate’s place . Everything we needed was right at our fingertips and the bed was SO comfortable we wanted to take it with us ! Beautiful surroundings and easy to get everywhere ! Thank you David and Kate for sharing your place with us . Hope to visit again !

Absolutely beautiful place to stay! Would love to come back :)

This spot was perfect for a weekend getaway! The Airbnb was clean with spacious accommodations. The apartment has an amazing view of the ocean. Adilah was great to work with! I would highly recommend this stay!

My husband and I stayed here for our honeymoon! It was a very cute and peaceful place!

Loved staying here! It's a very short walk to Kettle Cove State Park and Crescent Beach. Cape Elizabeth is a charming, quiet little town. If you're looking for a peaceful relaxing getaway spot, this is it. You'll feel right at home. Plus the hosts are very responsive and friendly. I'm already thinking about when I can return!

Great apartment in a very walkable part of Portland, a perfect location for exploring the city. It was clean & spacious with a very comfortable bed and we appreciated the off-street parking. The owner Jeff and his wife are very friendly and served us a fantastic meal at their small brewpub downstairs. I normally wouldn’t choose a rental above a pub, but theirs closes at 9pm every night, so noise wasn’t an issue at all. Would highly recommended this unit for a stay in Portland.

We had such a magical stay here! We have been coming to Popham Beach for years, and Jennifer’s place was such a clean, comfortable, and cozy place. Easy access to the beach for walks and a wonderful place to snuggle up during the passing rain storms. We had a great time, and would definitely come back!

The house is stunning. I stayed here for a work trip. The location and the ambience were perfect to get my work done. I wish I had more time to explore the beach area. But my booking coincided with a lovely snow fall. The house is very cozy. The hosts were very responsive to all of my questions. The interior decor is lovely. And I slept really well on the master bedroom bed. I’d love to know the brand the mattress is. Thank you so much. I look forward to returning on a leisure trip when the weather is warmer. But the snow is absolutely lovely.

Omg. SUCH a gem!💎 The house - adorable!✅ The host - amazing, communicative, friendly and SO sweet!✅ Incredibly dog-friendly✅ Safe, very quiet neighborhood✅ This was such an incredible stay! The house, the yard, the twinkle lights, the beach, just everything! I was here on a work trip in the winter and I’m crossing my fingers work will bring me back to SoPo in the summer when all the flowers are open and the water is warm! Even in the winter, it’s a beautiful, magical space 💕 couldn’t have asked for anything more! Lisa, thank you thank you for sharing your incredible space with me & Sookie. It has SUCH a good vibe and you are awesome! 💛 (Omg and the beds?! SO comfy!!)

This is a charming, quintessential Maine cottage. We loved getting to stay here during our family reunion weekend, mere blocks away from other family members who live in town as well as the Marshall Point lighthouse, Monhegan Island ferry, Dip Net, Black Harpoon and Fresh Catch. The house has been tastefully restored and appointed with affection for its rustic, historic character.

We just completed our second summer and are still in awe of everything this property has to offer. From the amenities inside to water accessibility, access to many fabulous restaurants, and complete silence from every corner of the property, this house on this island gives you everything you could ever hope for in a summer retreat. George is a fantastic host, extremely responsive, and always willing to help. The property is well-kept, and the house is clean and full of additional supplies. You can't look for much more than what this property offers.

Catherine's place is Great! We have stayed there several times over many years and it is always great. Very convenient for visitors to the Mid Coast Region.

Gorgeous, well appointed Airbnb. It was even better than expected. Our family very comfortable and enjoyed all aspects of this very pretty location. The house had fantastic amenities on top of being in an amazing setting. We’ve discussed how we could return….

We had an amazing stay! Susan and Kurt’s home was beautiful. The view was absolutely stunning, it was so pleasant waking up to ocean views every morning! We had such a nice and relaxing New Years with family.

Amy was very helpful and communicative and generous with an end of season late checkout. We were in town to celebrate my Dad’s 85th and she even offered to help with balloons! The place was perfect for us with my young nephews. The unit was well stocked with plenty of kitchen tools and cookware and dishes. There were plenty of linens and towels available to us. Very convenient to pine point beach. We would love to visit here again if it worked with our schedule.

This condo really exceeded our expectations in how beautifully it was decorated and the amenities that it had. The location was perfect for walking down to the shops and restaurants in the Old Port area and Patrick and Tara gave a great list of restaurants and other places to check out close by. We were only there for 2 nights. I wish we could have stayed longer. Hopefully we will have a chance to stay again some time.

This is a beautiful apartment that is thoughtfully equipped with all that you need. I appreciated having a back yard with a picnic table as well as a deck. The beach is a short, lovely walk and my pups thoroughly enjoyed the early morning off-leash romps with all of the other dogs on the beach. It felt like we were in the middle of everything and at the same time could easily take a 5-10 min walk and be away from it all if wanted. Across the road is the Scratch Bakery with amazing breakfast sandwiches, treats and coffee - be prepared to stand in line. There is also the Willard Scoop shop for delicious ice cream - also very popular.

Great location, but a lot of money for the quality of the accommodation and size. But very quiet and comfortable.

I had an amazing stay. Place was just as described and was the perfect location for a weekend getaway!

Tyson was very responsive. We appreciated the fact that there was coffee in the fridge as well as creamer. :-) Not needing to run through a move-out checklist was great and made our early morning departure less stressful. I loved that there were plenty of towels and a stocked laundry area as well as throw blankets to use while relaxing in the living room.

First time coming down to maine. Right in the center of everything. 10-20 minute drives (not bad). We ate at Pine Point Grille the first night and it was amazing. Second, we tried Dunstan’s Tap and Table. Had to wait 30 minutes, but was worth it. Great area, felt very homey. I would come back.

I stayed at Trish's place 5 nights and I hope to stay again in the future. Although it could accommodate 4, I traveled alone and felt that even 2 would be a stretch - there is no separate space/room, it is more like a one room studio apartment versus a one bedroom, but roomy enough for me. Very clean, quiet, felt safe and relaxed. The condo was well equipped with everything you need in the kitchen, as well as lovely organic hand soap, body wash. shampoo and conditioner The location is ideal. I walked every day to the beach only 5 minutes away, enjoyed great restaurants, and I had the pleasure of spending lots of quality time with my family who live locally - can't wait to do it again soon and would definately recommend that anyone looking for a sweet getaway should consider Trish's condo! You won't regret the experience.
