The Nonantum Resort

The Nonantum Resort

Kennebunkport, The USA

The Nonantum Resort is a traditional American hotel located right on the banks of the Kennebunk River and offering spectacular views.

Traditional in style, the property has a long history stretching back to the 1880s, undergoing numerous renovations over the years but maintaining its original charm. It boasts lovely views over the water, where small boats come and go and a variety of wildlife can be spotted. Operating very much as a summer resort, you'll be met by enthusiastic, friendly staff and can enjoy a range of activities both on and off the water.

OUR OPINION:

A traditional yet bright and airy resort, no more than five minutes from the centre of Kennebunkport, The Nonantum's location away from town takes full advantage of this rugged yet beautiful coastline. Despite the property lying near the road (which can be noisy), many rooms have a view of the Kennebunkport River, and some have a private balcony.

OUR RATING: Medium

Rooms

Rooms are divided between two main buildings. The first is the original Carriage House Inn, which is serviced by the original lift operated by staff and features traditional and Victorian decor. Accommodation in this building spans several categories, with some offering views of the river and others boasting Jacuzzi baths. There are also Family Suites and Living Room Suites for those seeking more space.

Our preferred rooms are located in the more modern Portside Lodge, where a number of rooms boast spectacular views over the water. Those on the first and second floors offer private balconies or patios, while the third floor rooms have large picture windows to truly take advantage of the view. In addition to the standard Portside rooms, the building has Family Suites featuring two sofa beds and a separate bedroom with king sized bed, as well as the spacious Riverfront Suite which comes complete with a microwave, fridge and two bedrooms.

Rooms in both buildings are light and airy, decorated with artwork from local artists in calming nautical tones. Many offer gas fireplaces, and all come with modern amenities such as air conditioning, cable TV, Wi-Fi access, hair dryers and coffee makers.
