The accommodations were clean, comfortable and welcoming. And then there is location, location, location! Amazing view! Lots of green space for walking, sitting on a bench or in a gazebo admiring the view. We also enjoyed some late afternoons on the front porch of this home. Nearby tennis and pickleball courts. Residential neighborhood with beautiful gardens and interesting architecture. A short walk or drive to restaurants and shops. Our host, Dan was very welcoming and has a vast knowledge of local history and culture as well as an entrepreneur. We left with a variety of his Captain Mowatt’s sauces.

Nice historic apartment

We had a great stay and were a bit surprised (pleasantly) that the 4th of July fireworks were set off in the park across the street (East Promenade). We enjoyed the location but it is a bit far from Old Port area where most of the activity was. Note: parking in the Old Port area is VERY expensive (20-26 for 2 hours (minimum time)) so it is likely better to walk (15 minutes) or uber to that area.

We had such a great stay at this East End apartment. It was perfect for the two of us, super clean, comfortable, and in a quiet, safe neighborhood. We love to walk, so the location was ideal. It took us about 10 to 15 minutes to walk into Old Port, and there’s also a trail right next to the property that we used often.Dan was incredibly kind and easy to talk to. We really enjoyed chatting with him during our stay. Overall, everything was wonderful, and we would absolutely stay here again the next time we’re in Portland!

Amazing!

We loved our stay in Portland at the Ocean View Victorian! The room was simple but everything that we needed. Super comfortable bed. Bathroom was nicely updated. Kitchen was more than adequate for our needs of cooking breakfast. Our host Dan gets 10+ stars for his hospitality and gracious nature. He greeted us with an amazing bottle of his award winning hot sauce that we enjoyed immensely during our stay. We also enjoyed Mo, Dan’s beautiful black Labrador (she helped to make us feel right at home 😊) Location was perfect. We were able to walk everywhere. Coffee shops are a close walk. Cute grocery store close by. Our favorite spots were… Fore Street restaurant for a nice dinner Lukes’s on the pier for seafood Becky’s diner for breakfast Duckfat for poutine Blythe and Burrows as favorite bar You know you had a great time when you are sad to leave.

The apartment was the perfect spot, right across the road from the water and park and a short drive/ nice walk (less than a mile) to the main parts of old port. Dave was great and we left with lots of awesome hot sauce to try at home!

Great location, when you go outside across the street short distance, beautiful view of water. It’s fairly quiet, perfect distance from downtown if you are looking for quiet. Host was awesome, very friendly and polite. Bathroom was clean, very tight in space, fortunately we are not big people! There were 4 small very basic chairs to sit on. I used for my suitcases. I personally felt it was very outdated and bedding and rug was not clean. I prefer crisp white sheets. Room is up a narrow stairway with a simple deadbolt lock and free access to anyone. I would not stay here again, we stayed our 2 nights, would prefer hotel. Everyone has different expectations.
