We stayed at The Colony for a week long event/vacation and loved everything about the hotel! The staff was wonderful from the GM to the wait staff. The charm of the hotel and the gorgeous setting surpassed my expectations! Our room was very comfortable and clean and it was nice staying in one of the ones without a TV! The... More

From the moment we arrived until we departed, it was a delightful experience. The hotel staff was gracious and most accommodating. The food was delicious and the entire wait staff were so pleasant and friendly never missing one detail. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone for the incredible beauty of the hotel, the scenic vistas it provided and... More

I took part in a group event (dog show) that took place at The Colony. The staff couldn't have been nicer or more accommodating! The hotel was beautiful and comfortable. We ate a number of our meals there, and a wonderful buffet breakfast was included with the price of our room. I loved being able to open the windows of... More

The rooms are lovely with furniture and wall coverings that truly reflect the beauty of the Maine coast. The entire staff is friendly and helpful and seem dedicated to making your stay at The Colony... More

Always wanted to stay here! Had a lovely room with beautiful view. Not as pricey as I thought it would be. Terrific employees. First class all the way. Delightful breakfast included in price in a classic dining area with music from the 40s, which is very appropriate. Great sleep on a comfy mattress. No TV in room made us want... More

We spent a night and day here in August and thoroughly enjoyed it. The grounds are beautiful with just a little street between it and the Maine coast. The room was small but nicely decorated with an old Inn feel. The breakfast was included with a nice selection of items. It is in their restaurant with views of the grounds... More

My husband, puppy and I stayed at the Colony in September. We were pleasantly surprised! I thought, from looking online, that it might be dilapidated or gross from allowing dogs. This hotel has the look of a beautiful private estate, out of "Gone with the Wind" style. The rooms are white and immaculate. The view is one of the best.... More

My husband and I traveled to Kennebunkport for business and stayed at The Colony Hotel. It was one of the most pet friendly inns we have ever stayed at and our pooch was very comfortable. Location was fantastic. The property had many neat, historic features. If you stay in one of the smaller guest house rooms (not in the main... More

We spent a night at the Colony's detached, but close-by Galland house (3rd floor, King). The house is old and a little worn, true. But the accommodations were more than decent and just $99 a night. The hotel property, of course, is magnificent. Lots of amenities, great location. The included breakfast was fabulous...worth $20 per person, easily. Staff is great... More
