King'S Port Inn – A Favorite for Families in Kennebunkport

King'S Port Inn sits at the entrance to Kennebunkport's Lower Village, a two-minute walk from Dock Square and its shops and restaurants. Kennebunk Beach is less than one mile down the road, and Goat Island Lighthouse is a short drive away. Free on-site parking lets guests leave the car for the entire stay and explore the area on foot or by rented e-bike.

Upgraded rooms include a two-person Jacuzzi tub and a gas fireplace, with some suites offering a wet room with double showerheads. The Premium King and Deluxe King Suite are the most requested layouts among couples returning for anniversary trips. Rooms have been recently renovated with new mattresses and pillows, and all include a flat-screen TV and mini-fridge.

A complimentary continental breakfast is served each morning, featuring Maine blueberry toppings, fresh Belgian waffles made to order, and locally sourced pastries. The breakfast room also offers 24-hour coffee and tea service from a machine that dispenses cappuccino and lattes. Guests regularly praise the waffles and the friendly staff member who prepares them.

The inn is a short walk from a playground and lifeguarded beaches, making it a practical choice for families with children. Rachel Carson Wildlife Reserve and Wells Reserve are within a five-minute drive, offering walking trails and birdwatching. The First Families Museum and trolley bus tours depart from Dock Square, all within walking distance of the hotel.
