4/5 found this review helpful

We have been on a round trip in the New England states and we stood at different Inn's, hotels and motels. But the accomodation in the Green Heron Inn in Kennebunkport was the best and we have never experienced such incredible breakfast at an "Inn" before. The rooms were so lovely, clean and quiet and furnished very individually so that it was hard to drag ourselves away from this Inn. Another highligt was the very warm wellcome of Dan & Toni; we felt at home from the very first minute until our departure. Thank's again to both guys for their hospitallity.

“Highly recommend this wonderful place!”

2/2 found this review helpful

My 3 friends & I met here for our annual girls' weekend. Everything about the Green Heron was perfect, from the welcoming reception from Dan, one of the owners, to the incredibly delicious breakfasts prepared by Tony, the other owner. Our rooms were comfortable & well-equipped. The inn's setting is very peaceful, overlooking a creek, where we were treated to the sight of a kingfisher diving for fish. It's only a mile from Dock Square, the center of town; far enough away to escape the crowds, but still an easy walk. Dan & Tony are the perfect hosts and made this one of the best weekend getaways we've had in 13 years. This is what a Maine escape should be!

“Highlight of our trip”

Green Heron Inn

Save Review
5 of 5 stars
London, Canada
10 Aug 2007

The Green Heron was certainly the highlight of our nine day road trip throughout New England. We're already excited to return next year and for many years to come.

Tony and Dan are an absolutely fabulous team. Being an innkeeper requires you to tread a fine balance between being hospitable, yet not overly pushy/nosy, and they achieve this balance perfectly. We were immediately made to feel at home. I think I can honestly say that we've never relaxed so much as we did at the Green Heron.

As mentioned by all the other reviewers, the breakfasts are incredible. We are total foodies and ten days later we're still dreaming about the meals we ate at the Green Heron.

Can't wait to return.

Highly, highly recommended.

My husband and I recently stayed here with our 17 year old daughter for 3 nights and LOVED it! It is an excellent location, very comfortable rooms and the very BEST at breakfast! The hosts are truly wonderful and can offer great suggestions for restaurants and activities. It is a very relaxed atmosphere. They do have a cookbook coming soon and I can't wait to try all of the wonderful recipes!

“Loved the Green Heron Inn!”

Green Heron Inn

23 Jul 2007

We loved our stay at the Green Heron Inn. Dan and Tony are wonderful hosts, showing obvious enjoyment in everything they do. I couldn’t wait to try our first breakfast – it turned out that every plate was so attractively arranged that we had to take pictures before we began eating. Everything tasted excellent – better than we expected, since we have both been around the proverbial culinary block. Tony makes everything from scratch, including baked goods. He demonstrated his mastery of omelettes, southwestern breakfast wraps, pancakes, french toast, panna cotta, scones, gingerbread, brownies, oatmeal raisin cookies, chocolate chip cookies and more. My friend and I are looking forward to the publication of Tony’s cookbook, which is slated for early Autumn 2007. We had a very nice room which had its own fireplace and good-sized bathroom. The Inn has many things within walking distance – the Bush Compound, public beach, and the shopping district in downtown as well. The common areas of the Inn were always immaculately clean, as well as the grounds. We loved the Adirondack chairs that we could relax in while looking at the inlet. We took advantage of the generous offer of refrigerator/freezer space and use of their free internet access. We were disappointed by the narrow parking spots, leaving us barely able to open our sedan’s doors – this was the only negative part of our stay! Another note: We were positively addicted to visiting Dannah, the fabulous jewelry store across the street from the Inn – she has a fabulous selection which suits every taste and every budget.
