Sea Cliff House
Situated on one of the most beautiful beaches in the world, the Sea Cliff House sits directly on the beach. Its beachfront pool overlooks sand dunes and its hot tub offers a nice warm-up during the colder months. There are three buildings with three different types of lodging: a two-room kitchenette, several Jacuzzi rooms and multiple ocean-view rooms. All come with air conditioning, bath, heat, cable, phone and free parking. Take a short drive to Kennebunkport Harbor and go on a four-hour whale watch. Offered only in July and August, the sight of these majestic beasts is worth the trip alone.
