Just when you thought Maine couldn’t get any more Maine-y, one hotel in the southern part of the state went and created an incredibly unique experience for those who love all things lobster! We already know that getting away from reality and staying someplace in Maine for a few nights is special, but add some seafood and nautical touches and you’ve got an escape you won’t soon forget!
The Boathouse Waterfront Hotel & Restaurant in Kennebunkport is a great place to spend a few centrally located nights in one of the state’s most beautiful towns.

The hotel, which sits directly on the Kennebunk River and just minutes from the ocean, offers 25 guest rooms in two different buildings. Everything here is crisp, contemporary and each room and common space just exudes the nautical feel of Maine.

Every room is worth considering, but right now our favorite is the Lobster Suite! The room features a comfy king bed as well and it was designed and decorated with the Maine Lobster Collaborative and a group of local artists and incredible designers.

Every element of the room somehow ties into lobster fishing, including the chairs made of lobster pots!

From the art on the walls to the furniture, this place might be the epitome of Maine.

While you can book the Lobster Suite on its own, we recommend going for The Maine Lobster Experience at The Boathouse. This hotel special was designed with the Maine lobster industry in mind and is meant to foster a love and appreciation of all things Maine lobster.

The package includes a stay in the Lobster Suite, as well as a number of local Maine lobster-related goods.

We especially love that visitors will also receive a Lobster Bake from Cape Porpoise Lobster Co. which is sent to after the stay to allow for a fun continuation of the Maine experience at home. How cool is that?
