Great place to stay for a getaway. Breakfast is outstanding, hostess and her husband prepare fresh ingredients with three tasty courses.
Rooms are well decorated, clean, bright and comfortable. We stayed there in 2001 and again in 2025. Our favorite in Kennebunk Port.

Stayed in a room built in 1802! Enough said. Great historic building with plenty of charm and personality. Wonderful location to get out of the bustling downtown district. Very friendly hostess as well. Love it.

The staff at the 1802 Inn were welcoming and made us feel comfortable upon arrival. The inn was quaint, decorated for autumn, perfect for an October visit. Joanna and Lars were sociable and never hesitated to sit and chat with my husband and me. This inn does feel like home.

We arrived an hour early and the front door was locked. We had to call a phone number and were told to come back in an hour, not very accomendating. Unfortunately I was in need of a restroom, when I explained the need I was tool "sorry, come back at the check in time". This was not very accomendating. Also breakfast was not served until 9. We had a tour at 9.
, again, not very accommendating. They also charged for glass of happy hour wine. However, accomedations were very clean.

The 1802 House is a charming bed and breakfast in beautiful Kennebunkport. Juliana welcomed us and was a truly wonderful host. The inn is lovely and breakfast was top rate. Our only complaint is that our stay was so short! We would absolutely stay at The 1802 House again when in Kennebunkport amd would recommend a stay there to family and friends.

This property is several blocks off Dock Square but very convenient and a hidden gem. Lovely house with plenty of parking. The owner Julianna is very friendly, knowledgable and the perfect host. A beautiful breakfast includes home baked goods by her daughter Hannah. A wonderful place to stay and we will be returning.

1802 House was the perfect place for us to stay for a 2 night visit to Kennebunkport and surrounding area. The walk into the main "town" was lovely and avoided finding a parking place in the very limited parking lots! Breakfasts were delicious and served with a smile! Would Highly Recommend!!!!!!
