Top Wells National Estuarine Research Reserve Hotel Reviews

Tallwood Motel Wells

10/10 Excellent

"For the price and location it was a great hotel."

Holiday Inn Express Wells-Ogunquit-Kennebunk by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent for a quick stay."

Village by the Sea

8/10 Good

"The rental is very spacious and the price is reasonable. It’s clean and beautiful."

The Kennebunk Inn

10/10 Excellent

"I read some reviews after I had booked our reservation and they made me nervous. The ones I saw weren't very good. However, we found the Inn lovely. The girl at the front desk was very nice. There was coffee and snacks provided when we arrived. Our room was beautiful. We had a suite, but didn't book a suite. We had a living room, a kichenette, and a king size bedroom. Everything was very clean. We had drinks and appetizers in the restaurant, which was very good. Based on the business the restaurant was doing, I would guess it's a very popular spot. We were traveling around New England leaf peeping and this Inn was such a nice surprise. It was one of our favorite spots. I give them a 10 our of 10!"

"What a sweet find. We stayed in Cabin 1. It was very clean, two bedrooms with queen beds, a living room/kitchenette. The kitchen had a large sink, small fridge, microwave, coffee maker and toaster. There were even dishes and utensils. A nice table with two chairs and there was a sofa in the living area. There was only one small step up to the deck and entry door which made unloading the car easy. Great place to stay! We will definitely stay here again."

Atlantic Oceanfront Hotel
