“A great experience”

1802 House Bed and Breakfast Inn

1 Oct 2007
1/1 found this review helpful

Jay and Linda are great hosts - we arrived early and were allowed to go ahead and check in. Jay provided us with a map and then spent about 15 minutes highlighting great places to see. They made our dinner reservations for Pier 77 and it was a great experience as well.
Breakfast was wonderful - and Jay provided great stories about the inn.
The b&B is well decorated, clean and the bed was very comfortable. Our shower was the best - two shower heads with lots of water pressure - I almost missed breakfast.
We look forward to returning soon!

“Kansas City couple visits Maine”

1802 House Bed and Breakfast Inn

10 Sep 2007

My wife and I were very impressed with the experience of staying at the 1802 INN. Jay and Linda are a very knowledgeable,intelligent and attractive happy couple who did work hard to make our visit an enjoyable one. They are very connected with what is going on in town and are able to direct you to excellent restaurants and activities that are available. We don't normally eat breakfast, but had to at this inn; the meals were just too good to pass up. Although Jay and Linda have just been owners for a few months, it appears that they were doing this for years. The accommodations were superb. The beds are excellent!!!....not what I would have expected.

“Will be a success!”

1802 House Bed and Breakfast Inn

Linda and Jay are fairly new to this place and this business but I and my family feel they will be greatly successful! Nothing was too much trouble for them, they took care of us completely. A lovely homey typical New England place, really comfortable and pretty rooms, and delicious breakfasts, served around a big table where you can get to meet the other guests. A few minutes walk from the town centre, but peaceful and great to return to at the end of a busy day - good luck!

“New Ownership terrible!”

1802 House Bed and Breakfast Inn

30 Jul 2007
1/4 found this review helpful

We've stayed at the 1802 House every year for the last 3 years when we go to Maine to visit our daughter at camp. We had a wonderful experience the first 2 years when Mark and Sue owned the place, but this year (just one month before our annual visit), the place was sold to people who do not know anything about hospitality. They were rude and thoughtless. Mark and Sue would never have treated guests so poorly! What a shame. Of course, we will never step foot at the 1802 House again. There are fortunately many more lovely and friendly places to stay in Kennebunkport!

Our goal is to make every stay at the 1802 House memorable. Good memories begin with good communication: A warm welcome, prompt, pleasant responses to guest questions, and lively breakfast table conversations. Even chatting about a guest’s day over evening refreshments.

We take pride in greeting our guests personally, offering help with dinner or activity reservations, and showing them our inn. These guests asked only to be shown to their room. They also chose not to join our other guests for breakfast on either morning of their two-day stay. We saw them only briefly at check out. There was no opportunity to be warm and welcoming, engage in conversation or respond to any of their concerns.

To ensure than no one misses breakfast, we provide lovely “Go Bag” breakfasts for guests with early-day commitments. We’ve received wonderful feedback about these and we’re pleased to provide them whenever a guest lets us know they won’t be available for our three-course breakfast. These guests didn’t share their plans with us.

At check out, we were asked to honor a promotional price that was applicable to new bookings only. We agreed. These guests then asked for another price adjustment for their missed breakfasts. We agreed to that, as well.

We regret that their experience didn’t meet their expectations. But our personal conversations and guestbook notes indicate that our other guests have left with fond recollections of our town, our inn, our breakfasts and our hospitality.

“So Impressed - Forever in our Memories.”

1802 House Bed and Breakfast Inn

26 Jun 2007

Outstanding Cuisine - And Beauty Everywhere. The Lush Grounds, The Historic Home, The Decorated Rooms, The Luxurious Baths, Completely Gorgeous even for the most discriminating. I didn't like waking up to neighboring construction though. The home is nestled in a neighborhood so that is unavoidable but I like to sleep in on vacation. But as far as the place itself - nothing has ever compared to it.
