This is a storied Hotel Resort that has just complete a new section to be year round. Original portion of the hotel is over 100 years old with breathtaking presence taking its position with views and sounds of the ocean. Breakfast buffet each morning left you wanting for nothing. A wonderful way to experience Kennebunkport.

Obviously, The Colony is a beautiful hotel in a prime location. I have stayed there previously, but the current breakfast buffet was a MAJOR disappointment. At prior stays, it was one of the highlights of the stay. Now it is no better than any ordinaryhotel chain "free breakfast." I am sorry to say this offset all the other things I loved and still love about The Colony.

Very nice stay in new building (Coveside). Clean, new, good housekeeping service. Breakfast in main building was good. Check in was easy , we received complimentary wine. Always a nice stay although expensive but that’s Kennebunkport.

The property is gorgeous! Sit on the wrap around porch and view the ocean. Walk across the street to the ocean! The lobby area is very warm and inviting! We love to sit by the fire and read after the sun sets or on a rainy day. The complimentary breakfast is bountiful! It’s pet friendly which is a must for us. It’s a nice walk to the middle of town. The rooms are quaint & comfortable. We’ve never splurged for an ocean view,we should! Now that we have found this place it’s part of our trip to Maine.
