The Colony Hotel

The Colony Hotel is the most enduringly beloved classic resort on the Maine coast, a grand 1914 white clapboard landmark perched above the Atlantic in Kennebunkport where generations of guests have returned for the unhurried pleasures of a genuinely old-fashioned American summer resort, from rocking chairs on the wraparound porch to lawn games, a saltwater pool, and the uncluttered beauty of the open ocean. Family-owned and fiercely independent, with a commitment to environmental stewardship that predates the sustainability conversation by decades, it is the ideal choice for planners seeking a Kennebunkport property with deep community roots, authentic New England character, and the kind of warm, unhurried atmosphere that no branded hotel can replicate.
