Loved our stay at Waldo Emerson. Our host Amelia was so lovely to chat with. The breakfast was AMAZING and the bed was so comfy we slept the best we had our whole trip. We loved the cute and thoughtful decor, and the history (the oldest home in Kennebunk!) The water pressure was fantastic and it was easy to find and park. The attention to detail was so appreciated including the most interesting presentation of the toilet paper roll. You'll have to see it to know what I mean.

Classic authentic architectural style of late 1800 /early 1900 NE home. Comfortable BnB. Rooms have a window AC which keeps it cool enough, but room feels a little clammy. Coffee available in the hall. An ‘honor system’ wine fridge (just write down what you take and pay when u check out). They have an outdoor fire from 8-10pm with s’mores kits if u like. The breakfast is served between 8:30 and 9:30. It is high quality and delicious. There are 2 tables to hold 6 people each to meet the other guests while eating. Amelia is a gracious host and accommodating. The BnB has beach chairs and umbrella available to borrow and use at the beaches. Great stay.

Charming inn with clean and cozy rooms. Lots of amenities. Amelia was a great host and made sure we had everything we needed. The inn is a pleasant walk from downtown where you will find lots of shops and restaurants. I can’t wait to go back.

Amelia and Ron have created a beautiful and homey atmosphere that welcomed us into a comfortable retreat from the ordinary to the exceptional. The king bed was so great and the bathroom spotless. The smell of breakfast drew us downstairs for delightful conversation and well appointed dining delights. 10 stars all around. Best host and hostess ever.

It was a comfortable room. I slept like a log both nights, and we had two good breakfasts to start the day. The bacon at breakfast was perfect, and my wife even asked how it was prepared. The coffee was a tad weak for my taste, and I realize you can't have everything. The staff was friendly and engaging. The owner hates messy floors, and I do as well.

This wonderful inn was such a pleasant surprise. It is located on a beautiful piece of property right off the road in Kennebunk, which is just down the road from Kennebunkport…two wonderful must-see Maine towns. I best describe the Waldo Emerson Inn as charming, welcoming, comfortable, and clean. Our room (“Bourne”) had a queen bed and was beautifully decorated…but not stuffed with antiques like is sometimes found in similar types of inns. Though the bathroom was a bit tight, it was modern and extremely clean. Our room also had a separate window AC unit which kept it nice in cool during an unusually warm evening. From our names written on our room door (in chalk) to the wonderful conversations with the staff, we really appreciated the personal touch provided to the guests. Finally, our delicious (and filling) breakfast (parfait, French toast, bacon, coffee and orange juice) was one of the high points of our short visit. The only unfortunate part of our visit is that we only stayed one night as we had to fly home the following day. We highly recommend the Waldo Emerson Inn and certainly plan to return next time we’re in the area. we were

My husband and I were looking for a long weekend getaway to celebrate our 10 year anniversary and this place was great! They had a chilled bottle of wine waiting in our room, they provided local restaurant suggestions so we could make reservations ahead of time, and (my favorite part), when we had to leave early in the morning on the last day (this missing their delicious breakfast food), they made us a to-go breakfast bag: a yogurt parfait, clementines, and some biscotti. Great service!
