"Kennebunkport, Maine might be known as the summer home of an American political dynasty, but it’s a lovely seaside town for the rest of us as well; by local standards, a six-room bed and breakfast in a spectacularly well-maintained 1753 house is the populist choice. The Waldo Emerson Inn is tastefully bedecked with quotations from namesake Ralph, who is said to have spent ten summers here. In the rooms, luxe bedding and modern bathrooms share space with original architectural features, like pine wood floors from 1784. Breakfast, an honor bar, a lending library, and a 24-hour coffee and snack bar are among the inn’s thoughtful services." - Tablet Hotels
