Freeport Village Sunny Studio
Jennifer was a phenomenal host. She was very accommodating (we were traveling with our 8 month old) which was extremely helpful. The place was spotless, quiet and very peaceful. We felt right at home and you can easily walk right to downtown Freeport. Highly recommend this host and this location!

This place is absolutely wonderful. Kathleen and John truly go above and beyond to make sure all of your needs are met and you feel right at home during your stay. We were greeted with warmth and comfort during our entire visit, and are already planning on staying with them again next time!

Garden Suite @ A Peaceful Oasis on Munjoy Hill
Ani’s garden oasis was adorable! It was just the right amount of space for us. It’s spacious and cozy. We enjoyed ourselves. We look forward to visiting again.

Peaceful Coastal Retreat
Michele and her husband were absolutely amazing! So incredibly kind and their home is on a beautiful piece of property. Situated in a remote area in between York and Ogunquit it was easy to get ANYWHERE! Michele was incredibly responsive with questions, recommendations, and just about anything you could need. I would HIGHLY recommend staying with them!

Private, spacious, colorful, fun & unique space
Your home was the perfect fit for me, my niece and great niece. It was nice to each have our own comfy bed on scent free sheets. We loved the funky, unique feel of the place and really enjoyed all the art work. We appreciated the snacks, coffee, tea and 1/2 n 1/2 provided. UNE was only one mile down the road which was really convenient. We enjoyed eating at Jewel of India and Coco’s Bar and Grill. Our favorite place in town was Elements where you can have a coffee, tea or beer while you browse the bookstore. Ian and Suzen were great hosts!! I would definitely book this space again!! UNE is still my great-niece’s 1st choice.

Waterfront Private Apartment only 5 min to LLBean!
Wonderful stay, the place was in a beautiful location, walkable to Wolfe’s Neck Farm where we love to walk. My husband and I were there the first few days, then our adult daughter joined us for two nights. The place is small (described accurately) but the three of us found it very workable. The king bed was very comfortable. There was plenty of outside patio space to lounge and soak up the sun when it was out. This was a work trip for us as we were getting a property in a nearby town ready for sale. We didn’t have time to use the provided kayaks but hope to in a future stay. The hosts very friendly and accommodating, highly recommended this property.

Glorious Converted 1865 Brunswick Barn in Town!
Nina’s place is exactly as pictured and described. The bed is very comfortable, the kitchen is extremely well equipped and the bathrooms are spotless. Nina and her husband live next-door but are very unobtrusive and welcoming. I spent five nights in their Airbnb and was extremely comfortable and happy.

2-Bed Suite; in the Heart of Lake Region!
Charles is welcoming, friendly, and kind. A pleasure to do business with.
Self-Contained Unit with a patio

Beautiful 1-bedroom suite 1 mile to Dock Square
Clean Private and Comfortable!! It was everything we needed for one night.

Updated Studio Apartment
We very much enjoyed our stay at Clorinda and Dick's apartment. They were very welcoming and created a very comforting home environment. Highly recommend to anybody else looking to stay in the Portland area for a couple of days.

Resort-like 2 bed/1 bath - seasonal pool/hot tub
Such an amazing and clean stay! Heather was so kind and responsive! So happy to find this space. Very close to everything, and a gorgeous view of the bay! We felt so safe in the area, even to go for a run as a woman alone. Thanks so much for accommodating us😊

Quiet, Comfy & Spacious Studio & Private BA
We really enjoyed our stay here! It was close to Caswell farms which we were at for a wedding. Alison was so kind and helpful. She went above and beyond to make sure we had what we needed! Would absolutely stay here again.

Cozy In Law Suite Fully Equipped
We had a very relaxing stay at Carl & Rose's place. It was a very cozy space on a rainy fall weekend. Lots of fleece blankets, pillows and tea made us feel warm and welcome. The oversized reclining couch and 4-poster bed were super comfy. The height of the bed was a bit intimidating at first but quite luxurious once you sink into the soft supportive mattress. Great home base for exploring the beautiful scenery of Maine and nearby NH, especially with the leaves in full color.

Heron's Hide-Away
Katherine’s place is in a quiet area with walkable roads for my dog and I. She has included lots of extras around the apartment: toiletries in the bathroom, snacks in the kitchen, a few drinks in the refrigerator. The atmosphere is welcoming and their dog, Sterling, is very sweet. Biddeford, Saco and Old Orchard Beach are fun places to explore. I would stay here again.

Rustic and cozy one bedroom
I’ve stayed at many Airbnbs and this is definitely one of the best! The unit has a large, full kitchen open to the living room, a comfortable bedroom, a very nice bathroom, and an outdoor patio overlooking a gorgeous backyard. The entire unit was pristine and decorated with quality furniture. A private entrance on a very beautiful property just seven minutes from Kennebunkport. The hosts were proactive in all communications and incredibly kind. I hope to come back!

Coastal Haven, 2 mins to beach, 2 bed 2 bath, UNE
Wonderful and was more spacious than the pictures. We stayed over Christmas and Karen went out of her way to add so W decorations for us. Highly recommend and will most likely go back.

Rustic knotty pine getaway
Dan is very friendly, great communication and eager to assist in what you might need. His place is cozy and easy to get to.

Suite at Maine Mystic Gardens
We enjoyed our stay. Great location, clean, spacious, quiet, and comfortable with unobtrusive hosts. Highly recommend.!

Large Studio, 1 mile from the beach
We enjoyed our stay here as it was close to many amenities. Nadine was proactive in all communications. Very clean, cozy, comfortable and up to date. Very quiet and we felt right at home. We would definitely stay here again. Thank you Nadine for blessing us with your space for 4 days.

Sanctuary in the City
The place was spotless clean, I was truly impressed! It was beautifully decorated, yet it almost felt like home. I appreciated that it had a private entrance, so it felt very private. Little things like water filter, coffee pods, access to umbrellas etc. made it feel like someone put a lot of effort to make it comfortable and truly had in mind guests best experience. Well done, I truly recommend this place, look no more!

Captain Cookie's sea cottage
Great for what we needed! Robert was responsive and helpful when I had questions. He gave clear instructions. The entire process and stay was simple and hassle free.

Ocean Views, work friendly
Tom's place was recommended by a third party and we are glad we took their advice. It was everything that was advertised. Easy access from South Portland to all the scenic surroundings, downtown and a wide selection of dining choices. We stayed for two nights and it was a peaceful, relaxing stay. Our trip was in October when the weather was starting to change, did I mention the vibrant colors of the trees, which was a nice change from the heat in Oklahoma.

Private guest suite in Back Cove
Easy place to be close enough to the city and an uber ride away. Walking distance to Back Cove which is very scenic with a walking path around. We were only at the Airbnb to sleep so it was perfect for us. The bed is a daybed which was very comfortable and the size was completely fine for 2 people.

Cute Maine seaside community hideaway
We found the place to be cozy, with nice furnishings & artwork. The neighborhood is lovely for walks down to the water. It’s just 2 doors down to the Town Landing Market, which has a fantastic selection of coffees, pastries & groceries. We appreciated the fully equipped kitchen & spent many hours on the sunny balcony, enjoying the view of the peaceful back yard. We’d certainly stay here again!
