The view is stunning!! It has a really nice pool with comfy seats. The hotel itself is relaxing and quiet. There is a ton of history and it’s so interesting to read about it. The rooms look old-fashioned, but it’s part of the vibe. It was nice that they had coffee and muffins every morning, and you could go out on the big giant porch and just sit and relax and look at the ocean as you drink your coffee.

Property has stunning views and is close to the beach and shopping/ restaurants. The resort is very walkable and a car isn't needed once you're here. The property offers a resort feel with old world charm.

The colony has a great pool! We stay in the cove side across from the older building. The parking for these properties fill up in the summer which made it impossible to park when we got back from dinner. Breakfast is include and it is a great buffet. We ran late one morning and they were nice to grab us some containers to fill and enjoy our breakfast on there scenic porch. Over all this property is a beautiful hotel to visit. No ac or tv’s in the main building, but consider rooms are fully equipped.

Loved the property and location and views. Prices at lounge and restaurant were reasonable. No AC or Tv in rooms but were comfortable and enjoyed not having the distraction. Noise was a bit of a problem but not at quiet times. All good.

Lovely property but was disappointed that housekeeping didn’t show up until 4 in the afternoon. We would leave the property at 9:30am & fully expected our room would be ready as we came back to prepare for the evening. On Thursday it never got done as their timing was too late for our schedule.
Wi-Fi failed every night in the middle of our movies. Disappointed.

Love Kennebunkport and first time staying at the Colony. We were in a newer room across the parking lot looking out at the river.
We had a plugged toilet. Called for maintenance twice on the day we checked in. Maintenance finally shows up the NEXT MORNING. We had been using the toilet at nearby restaurants until then. My husband told me to go up to the lobby in the morning in my pjs to use the toilet which I was not thrilled about. Too bad because otherwise we liked it. We had noted other reviews about the hotel having problems and it seems like staffing might be a real issue for them.

Beautiful grounds, location and view is amazing. Quaint / small queen room with a more antique vibe. Did not eat on site but enjoyed continental breakfast muffins and coffee and cocktails from the bar. Very clean and the staff friendly. We were there at the shoulder season and there was plenty of seating at the pool, on the porches etc. Very dog friendly and most, if not all were well behaved. There are no TVs or AC in the main building but the windows open and there was a ceiling fan as well as a nice oscillating fan in the closet to use. We would definitely stay again.

I was there on 5/25 to 5/26 and the weather was cool, but if you went in July when it is hot the original building does not have A/C. Also no TV in the original building.
