This sophisticated inn is situated in colorful Kennebunkport, just 30 minutes from Portland. The 26 stylishly appointed rooms, suites and waterfront cottages are decorated with antiques and designer fabrics, and many offer fireplaces. The accommodations in May’s Annex, the property’s former carriage house, feature renovated marble baths with soaking tubs and double walk-in showers. The inn’s excellent restaurant, backed by a superlative wine cellar, is housed in two restored 19th-century barns. There, service is top-notch, and the weekly changing four-course menu employs impeccable seasonal and local ingredients. Other amenities include an outdoor infinity swimming pool (open May through October), a spa, an informal bistro serving regional specialties and a private marina. Cooking and wine-tasting classes, private cycling tours, guided lobster fishing excursions and sailing trips can be arranged by the hotel.
Convivial classic lobster bakes are hosted by White Barn chefs every Thursday. In winter, the hotel’s signature White Barn Inn restaurant is closed Mondays and Tuesdays.
