Two thumbs WAY up!!
Wonderful stay at fantastic property!! Paul is great and was so helpful at every point of the trip- he even had some kittens for the animal obsessed kids in the group to cuddle and feed!! House and beach are amazing! Beach has few, if any, other folks on it. Views are gorgeous!! House has everything you could need. In a quiet area but all necessities within 10 min drive. Convenient for day trips to Acadia, Bar Harbor, Camden/Rockland. Absolute treasure, highly recommend!!

My family and friends had an amazing time at this house. The house is equipped with everything you'd need to enjoy your Maine vacation, from extra coolers to toys and games for kids. And to top it all off, the owners were above and beyond helpful and responsive with any questions we had. I highly recommend staying here for your family vacation!

Great New Year!
We were looking for a house that would fit our big family to spend the New Year’s together and this house did not disappoint. The house was so big it accommodated 16 of us and our three dogs. We met Paul on arrival and he was so welcoming and showed us around. Everything in the house was beautiful and the fire pit in the beach was a great way for our family members that came from Colombia to have a fire pit on the beach experience during the winter. Everything was close to the house as well and we were even able to go skiing with a 46 min drive which wasn’t bad either. We would definitely want to come back again! Thank you again for opening your lovely house!

About the host

Host profile image
Paul is a retired nightclub and restaurant owner and Shankari owns a beautiful yoga and wellness center in Manchester-by-the-Sea.

Why they chose this property

We searched for over 2 years searching for a property that was not jut on the ocean but a place with a private beach which is rare in Central/Downeast Maine. Located 13 miles north of exciting Belfast allows us to spend our days on the beach and dine at wonderful restaurants at night. The property is private, quiet and perfect for large groups.

What makes this property unique

Sunrise from our large waterfront deck is mesmerizing. Having your private sandy beach is practically unheard of in this part of Maine. The view from every window in the house looks out to water or forest. Most of our guests are here for family reunions, weddings or multi family vacations.We have owned numerous rental properties in Down East Maine since the late 90"s and The Retreat House is by far my favorite.
