Hard to open the door

The room had everything I needed. Noisy people at night. No elevator. Had to drag a heavy bag up 3 flights of stairs. The door lock was unreliable. I had to wave my card in front of it for a long time before it decided to open. Bed was comfortable.

We were celebrating our 35th anniversary with a trip to Maine. I had a bad feeling as we lugged our gear up 4 flights of stairs which had not seen a vacuum in weeks. When we opened the door to our room, I literally burst into tears. The odor was overwhelming, the wallpaper peeling and I'm pretty sure there was feces on the shower curtain. The free breakfast consisted of hard boiled eggs, a community bowl of melon, packaged muffins, instant oatmeal and bagels (if you were lucky). They claimed to have a restaurant and 2 bars on site, but we were told at check-in that those would probably not be open because they had no staff. We were booked for 4-long nights and I thought I would never get the stench out of my hair. Definitely do not recommend.

The outside area around the pool and bbq was great, and people seemed to really enjoy it. Inside hot tub was wonderful, especially after a long drive. But the property is in need of some upkeep (painting, brick maintenance, etc) as well as some improvements/upgrades to their continental breakfast and vending machines. Staff members at the front desk were really friendly and helpful. Overall a very pleasant stay, and a short drive to free parking (and short walk from there) for Dock Square.

Hotel and grounds are dated but it was clean. Great pool. Fitness room was closed. From photos i thought the beach was on the property but it was across the street and down a block. You definitely need a car to do anything off the property but it was relaxing.

Great location! Easy access to get on Ocean Ave, and short drive to town. Perfect for a one-nighter stop over from Acadia National Park to NYC. Indoor and outdoor pools and hot tubs are great for recovery after all the hiking!

My husband and I were comfortable at the Rhumbline. Its right near Kennebuncport, but more affordable than many places I looked at. It's good for families, as there is a pool on site and the place is in a quiet, safe neighborhood. But there's no beach you can walk to, which disappointed me. However, this is a nice, decent place to sleep, and use as a base as you explore Kennebuncport.

Rhumbline resort was close to the shops, restaurants and beaches by car. We stayed for one night and were thankful for that. The grounds could really use some maintenance and the hallway carpets desperately needed to be vacuumed. There was also a random broken chair by the side entrance and garbage on the floor at the end of the hallway. The bed felt like we were sleeping on a stack of newspapers and the dresser, mirror and lamp had some heavy dust on it. The door to our room and to the porch stuck badly so we had to use force to open/close them. Overall, the place could use some tlc and most likely more staff.
