Great boutique hotel, wonderful breakfast and coffee service. We stayed in the suite and really enjoyed it.

This place is ok. Didn’t love it. Another place purchased and owned by Lark, a private equity that owns much of Kennebunkport and other B and B’s thruout Maine and CA. They destroyed the intimate feel of these places. Same mediocre food served at all of them.
There is no place to wipe your feet at your door before entering, dragging wet and dirt inside your small wood floor room. The rooms are fine, but nothing special. Location in Kennebunkport is good, and Kennebunkport is really only a one night visit. Overpriced, but what isn’t.

Convenient to town, nice breakfast and porch for comfortable sitting. Paid $800 night for cabin studio with filthy patio sitting area. We won’t be back

Cheap feeling, poorly run, poor customer experience, poor service, overpriced.
From the moment I arrived at AWOL I realized that the images and marketing misrepresented the reality of the space.
I walked in and had to wait 5 minutes for someone to show up at the front desk. When they did arrive I was met with an unprofessional, unkempt and indifferent attitude.
The rooms and the space is clean and smells good, but it genuinely is just a turd with some polish on it.
There is absolutely nothing special about this place or the experience. I would seriously encourage anyone who appreciates and expects good customer experience, quality and comfort to look elsewhere.
If you’re a boxed wine mom who wants to feel ‘modern,’ have ever described yourself as an fashionista and spend your free time taking cringe instagram selfies, head right over this is the place for you.
If you like staying at a place who cares about delivering on customer experience to expense, who live up to the standard they set with their marketing materials - literally go anywhere else.

Absolutely the best place! The staff were kind and knowledgeable. Location is great, the room was quiet, comfortable and cozy. Our bed was very comfortable. The breakfast spread was delicious. Perfection!

A Perfect Getaway at Awol Hotel in Kennebunkport
My partner and I recently stayed in one of the cozy cabins at Awol Hotel in Kennebunkport, Maine, and it was an absolutely perfect getaway! The cabin was wonderfully cozy, with a beautiful fireplace that added a touch of warmth and charm. The unique tub was a lovely bonus, perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring.
The continental breakfast was well-curated, offering everything you could need to snack on before heading out for the day—fresh pastries, fruit, coffee, and more. We also loved how close the hotel is to the village, with its charming shops and restaurants just a short walk away.
If you’re looking for a peaceful, romantic retreat in a picturesque location, Awol Hotel is the ideal spot. The combination of comfort, convenience, and a relaxed atmosphere made for the perfect stay. We can't wait to return!

There aren’t enough adjectives to properly describe how fantastic our stay has been. The attention to detail and the effort by the staff has been top notch. Brandi gave us a dissertation on Christmas Prelude so thorough I didn’t need to look at my own research. The property is close enough to walk to the center of town but far enough to get away from the hustle and bustle. The breakfast was outstanding. I’m still thinking about the broccoli puff pastry I had this morning. I’m a little hesitant to give such a great review. I’d really like to be able to book next year. Such a great place.

First time at AWOL, but certainly no our first time in Kennebunkport. Wonderful, friendly staff, super nice room and a lovely setting. Their breakfast was awesome....plenty of options, everything was fresh, and the coffee was great. Would highly recommend AWOL, will. E coming back for sure.

This was our second visit to AWOL Kennebunkport this year—last time in March, this time for Prelude. We opted for their mid-week special to avoid the Prelude crowds, and had a lovely time enjoying the fresh snow, quiet streets, and fun events just a short walk from our door. As in our previous visit, the staff was friendly and accommodating. Our cabin was clean, comfortable, and cozy with multiple options of heat control. Thank you once again, Brandi, Kristen, Virginia, and crew... we'll be back!

Great stay, the cutest room, loved the Parker Suite, the fireplace in the bedroom and the little studio area with that behtiful bathtub sorrounded by plants and windows overlooking Maine. Service was attentive and so friendly, thank you, Rosie :)
We spent only 24 hours there but we felt home, a beautiful home.

We came to AWOL for a quiet get away in November after our wedding and the cabins/Inn were perfect! The staff is so kind, the rooms are impeccable & the breakfast spread was great!
We will come back!

It was right before the season, and I was not informed about the limited services—such as the lack of the full breakfast they had advertised. We were one of only two cabins in use, but the staff placed me in the one closest to the main road and sharing a wall, with one other occupant, which made it easy to hear everything through the paper-thin walls. I would not recommend staying here.

This place is a gem! The property is beautiful, the rooms are clean, and the service is AMAZING! Walking distance to dock square, or grab one of their bikes and bike there! This made our first trip to Maine one we will never forget!
