Yachtsman Hotel & Marina Club

The Yachtsman Hotel & Marina Club sits within walking distance of the vibrant restaurants, galleries and marinas of the idyllic Maine coast town of Kennebunkport. The hotel's pristine location on a tidal river allows boating enthusiasts to dock personal watercraft at the adjacent Kennebunkport Marina, and guests can enjoy kayak, canoe, paddleboard and bike rentals for free during their stays. If you love being outside but prefer a more relaxing experience, lounge on the SS Sundaze, a pool boat docked in the river. When it comes to accommodations, recent guests loved the water views from their colorful bungalows. Each room includes complimentary Wi-Fi access, a minifridge and a smart TV, as well as an outdoor terrace featuring Adirondack chairs. Guests will have to pay a $35 daily resort fee during their stay, which includes discounted day passes for and group classes at nearby Quest Fitness, as well as coffee in the mornings. And while there is no on-site restaurant, the Marina Bar, open from 3 to 7 p.m., serves crisp cocktails that guest can enjoy while watching the boats drift by in one of the most picturesque towns New England has to offer.
