About this property
Renovated Old Port 2BR, Walk to Everything
Experience Portland from the center of it all in this bright two-bedroom loft tucked inside a classic brick building in the historic Old Port. Step outside and you’ll find cobblestone streets, the working waterfront, standout restaurants, local breweries, coffee shops, boutiques, and some of the city’s most loved attractions all within easy walking distance.
Inside, exposed brick, tall ceilings, and oversized windows bring plenty of historic Portland character, while thoughtful updates and comfortable furnishings make the loft an inviting place to come home to between adventures.
Whether you’re planning a weekend in the city, exploring Maine’s food scene, traveling for work, or using Portland as the starting point for a coastal getaway, this location puts the best of the city right at your fingertips.
What You’ll Love
• Stay in the Heart of the Old Port One of the best parts of staying here is how much you can experience without getting in the car. Walk to the waterfront, restaurants, cafés, breweries, local shops, ferry terminals, museums, and more right from your doorstep.
• Classic Portland Character Set inside a historic brick building, the loft features exposed brick, high ceilings, large windows, and architectural details that capture the charm of the Old Port while still offering the comforts of a renovated space.
• Two Comfortable Bedrooms After a day of exploring, settle into one of two cozy bedrooms, each furnished with a full-size bed, quality linens, blackout curtains, and everything you need for a restful night.
• Light-Filled Living Area Oversized windows fill the loft with natural light and offer views of the surrounding neighborhood. Unwind in the comfortable seating area, stream your favorites on the Smart TV, or simply relax before heading back out for the evening.
• Everything You Need to Dine In The fully equipped kitchen includes stainless steel appliances, cookware, generous counter space, and everyday essentials for preparing meals and snacks. Of course, with Portland’s incredible restaurant scene just steps away, cooking is entirely optional.
The Best of Portland, Just Outside
Pick up coffee from a neighborhood café and spend the morning wandering the Old Port’s cobblestone streets and local shops. Head toward the working waterfront, visit a nearby brewery or museum, catch a ferry to the Casco Bay Islands, or make your way to the Eastern Promenade for beautiful coastal views.
At night, enjoy dinner, drinks, and Portland’s lively Old Port atmosphere knowing your loft is only a short walk away.

Our accommodations was very clean. The location was perfect. Walking distance to everything in the old port.A parking garage is located out the side door of the building. It's a few dollars more than some of the others but find it worth it. We would stay here again.

Thank you, Anita. We’re so happy you enjoyed and it was a pleasure hosting you. Come back anytime!
This loft was amazing. Fully equipped with anything that you would need. All top shelf. Walkable to the whole seaport and store. We have a great time. One suggestion a mirror, to check out your outfit before going out.

Thank you for your wonderful review, Theresa. We appreciate the feedback about the mirror too. We hope to host you again!
We had an issue with checking in but Erika was helpful in navigating the issue and resolving the matter. The apartment is beautiful and in a great location. Would only echo a few other comments on recommending adding mirrors in the bedrooms. Only mirror is in the bathroom so if you are with others who need to get ready you have to navigate the usage of the mirror.

Thank you for the kind words, Rob. It was a pleasure to host you, we’re so glad you enjoyed your stay and come back anytime!
We enjoyed our stay very much. The apartment was well stocked and the beds were super comfortable. The apartment is wxtemely well located so that you can walk around the corner to Holy Donuts before the cannoli donuts sell out.
This is one of the best vrbo’s I’ve ever stayed at! Communication was excellent and it had everything we needed. Location was perfect! Def a must stay!

Thank you for the amazing review, Mattie! Hope to see you again!
Erika was very accommodating and a pleasure to work with. The condo is beautiful and is in the perfect location. Everything is pretty much walkable. There is a parking garage right next to the building which makes it very convenient.

Thank you so much, Carla! We’re so happy to hear you enjoyed your stay and loved the location and convenience of the condo. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we’d be delighted to welcome you back anytime!
This is the second year we've rented this property. Not only is it "white glove" CLEAN, but you couldn't find a better location in Old Port. You are right in heart of all of the restaurants and shops and across the street from the waterfront. Erika, the host, is phenomenal with communication. She'll help with you restaurant recommendations, good shops to check out, etc. The kitchen is fully equipped and the beds are super comfortable. Look no further - this is the place and we'll be back next December!!

Beth, thank you so much for this wonderful review and for choosing to stay with us again! We’re thrilled to hear that the cleanliness, location, and comfort of the home continue to stand out for you. It truly means a lot to know you enjoyed being right in the heart of Old Port and found everything you needed for a comfortable stay. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we’re always happy to help with recommendations. We can’t wait to welcome you back again next December!
The apartment was comfortable, clean and well stocked. It was a little noisy on Friday and Saturday nights, but that is to be expected in this downtown location. The AC fans blocked the noise. Very convenient location.

We’re so glad to hear you found the apartment comfortable, clean, and well stocked, and that you enjoyed the convenience of our downtown location.

We ’d be delighted to welcome you back anytime!
My husband and I stayed here with another couple for the weekend and this apartment could NOT have been better. It was spacious, clean, updated, and the most amazing location to walk around Portland. The communication was timely and informative. They even had coffee and k-cups available, which was so nice! Would absolutely look to stay here again.

Thank you for your lovely review, Allison. We are so happy to hear you had a wonderful time and would love to host you again!
We LOVED our stay here! It is located in the perfect area of Old Port, right in the middle of everything. We parked our car and walked to everywhere. It is a super clean and cute apartment, which made for a fantastic getaway. Our host was just as wonderful. Thank you!!!

Thank you for your review, Ann! I am so happy to hear you had a fun time at our place. We hope to see you back!
Great apartment. We had to fuss with the window ACs a bit but got them working. The only annoying thing was the parking. The easy parking was very expensive. We found a reasonable lot though a walk away.

Thank you so much for your review, Judy! We are so happy to host you and feel free to come back anytime. I understand the parking situation can be a bit tough and it's because the apartment is right in the center of Old Port so there isn't much space for parking. However, we have plenty of parking garages nearby that make it accessible. Have an amazing day!
First off communications with Erika were wonderful. Always answered us in a timely manner. The locaton of the apt is wonderful for walking to restaurants etc and felt very safe. The apartment itself is very clean and everything looks and feels new and the beds very comfortable. Cons were that washer and dryer are not in the unit itself, they are on a separate floor and are pay. While there is a parking lot right across the alley it costs 70 a day and street parking was very limited as we were there during Winter Storm Fern. If you like to read in bed at night bring a book light as there are no bedside lamps and as mentioned in other reviews bring earplugs if you are a light sleeper.

Laurie, thank you so much for your thoughtful and detailed review. I truly appreciate your kind words about the communication, cleanliness, comfort, and location. It means a lot to know you felt safe and well taken care of during your stay.
I also really appreciate you sharing helpful feedback for future guests regarding the laundry, parking, and in-unit lighting. With Winter Storm Fern, parking was definitely more challenging than usual, and I understand how that could be frustrating. Your notes are valuable and help set clear expectations.
Thank you again for staying with us and for taking the time to share your experience. I’d love to host you again in the future!
It was all terrific. There was one issue with the apartment on the last night but they responded promptly and while it could not be fixed because of the holiday they were attentive and apologetic.

Thank you for your review, Anna! We are so happy you had a great time and we hope to welcome you back very soon!
This apartment was really nicely appointed. Fairly easy to find. Parking is a bit tricky. plan on using the pay parking lot next door. Since this is right downtown, everything is within a short walking distance, but Friday night was a bit loud (for us fair-weather sleepers).
Communication with the host was great! All in all, I would recommend this place.
For a friends’ stay in Portland with no car this was an excellent location and literally just a street away from the Old Port area. The unit was on a secured floor, and on upper floor which was great for light, view and quiet. The elevator was an unusual find in this part of town. Pictures were accurate and good perspective on unit; place was “as advertised”. Kitchen was fine for brief stay and very clean, but would be spare for cooking whole meals. Beds were comfortable, as were the linens. Extremely convenient to lots of shops and restaurants, bars.

Thank you, Linda! We are so happy you enjoyed and you are welcome to come back anytime.
Every holiday, my brother and his wife and I go to visit friends in Portland. This is a perfect two bedroom condo that has all the amenities in terms of a fully stocked kitchen and the most comfortable beds and pillows. It’s very clean and beautifully decorated. The key is also the LOCATION! This place is in the heart of the Old Port so once you park your car, you can walk to some of the nicest shops and best restaurants. Erika, our property manager, answered all of my questions quickly . One recommendation is do not park at the Fore Street garage. Instead go one block over and valet it at the Portland Regency. You can go in and out and it’s $30 a day which is better than $55 a day at the garage.
