The property Was beautiful. The manager was responsive to all questions and concerns before trip and during our stay. One thing to note is, if you’re traveling with more mature adults, the stairwell upstairs to the second floor for living space is steep and narrow.
We enjoyed the great location, loving the deck enjoying the sunshine and promptness of property owner when we had questions.
I hope this is not the last time we stay at this property!
We had a wonderful time. Perfect beach house, step out to the sand and surf. Close to stores and restaurants. We didn't want to leave! But, we had to get back to the real world. Host was great!
The house was as advertised. Steps from the beach. The sunrises and moon rises were spectacular. There were four of us and plenty of room for us to not trip over each other. It was a wonderful weekend retreat.
Cozy little cottage, clean, no frills, right on the beautiful beach in the backyard and view of the sound in the front of the house. We were able to go for long walks and 12 km runs. Great getaway place!!!!
We rented both sides. Wife and I stayed on one side, Kids and grandkids on the other side. Best vacation in a long time. Great place to stay. Ocean right outside the front door. Clean and comfortable. Slept like a baby.
Every September, we've been staying at Wells Beach for over 10 years. We always stayed at one certain place but it was sold a few years ago so we have been staying at different places. This one is a charm! Roomy and come on! Right on the beach. It was comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked with everything you need to cook meals there. The host was quick to respond to any questions. It was fairly clean but let's face it, with a beach place you will have sand. The places I care about such as bathroom, kitchen and bedrooms were all very clean.There is a nice grill, a private deck, and a common area to share with neighbors. we didn't use that area but it's nice. All in all we were very pleased and I believe this will be our go-to place to stay in lovely Wells! All the bedrooms are upstairs but there are pull-out couches if you have an issue with stairs.

Celebrating our 50th anniversary.
We love Wells beach but were a bit disappointed that so many people, including several very young children were in the adjoining part of the house. We love children, but the loud “kid noises” were rather obnoxious especially late at night and very early mornings. We never used the laundry facilities or the water toys. We would hope to have “ neighbors” who follow the rules next time.
Property was very nice, the view is the draw. If you have an aging person in your group, be aware there are a lot of steps up to the property by the street and then again, more up to bedrooms. Kitchen and rooms were spacious and we really enjoyed (and needed for noise deflection) the multiple electric fans in the house. As listing mentions, this is a shared property, separated by room door upstairs. We were paired with a family that had young children, one with special needs. No issues with the family but there were MANY slamming door (over 25 repeated slammings at a time) and screaming sessions that started to dampen our stay. We reached out to the host regarding the noise disturbances, which were so loud they sounded like they were in our living space. Instead of stepping forward and resolving when contacted, the host put it on us to decide if the other family should be contacted regarding the noise. Contact was made by the host and the noise disturbance did thankfully subside. The house is relatively clean but do NOT look under the beds (trash, dust, gum, etc). There was a washer and dryer issue (also shared) but the host responded and resolved quickly. We were traveling for 2 weeks, most people traveling for that period do not want to pack or buy towels and sheets for their stay. Many locations provide these items (our Maine rental location before this one did) and if I was to recommend a change, it would be too provide at no extra charge.
Contract for this location is drawn up like a major extended legal document which is a turn-off to most honest people. Assumption is that the host had some issues in the past and the extra, lengthy documents are required.
Overall, we mostly enjoyed our stay at this location.
Host was excellent at responding to concerns/communication.
We were very happy without stay! The house is very well equipped with everything you need. The beds were very comfortable. Having a deck on the beach was awesome. I will look forward to a return visit.
Everything was wonderful. It was a relaxing weekend away. Pictures are very accurate. The only thing that would have made it even better would have been a fire pit (not there is a lot of room for one) and a big lobster pot. 4 adults and 2 kids fit comfortably. All in all it was wonderful! We will definitely stay again!
The house was very clean and tidy and the location was very quiet. The host was very nice and helpful. We will definitely consider staying here again in the future and may consider renting the whole house and the guest house.
My 4 friends and I spent an amazing 4 days in this oceanside, Vrbo rental. The weather was perfect, as was the location. We spent most of our time simply visiting on the deck, enjoying the ocean sights and sounds. It's not a fancy rental, but it is homey. I highly recommend it.
Our family of five loved spending a week right on the ocean. The property is as advertised. When we weren’t on the beach, we enjoyed opening up the large sliding glass door (with screen) that leads out to the deck and letting the ocean breeze blow through the living room area. The property is walkable to Wells Beach shops and a few restaurants. A great summer vacation spot!
This was the perfect getaway. The property was as pictured, clean, comfortable and well cared for—definitely would stay here again. Thank you for sharing your home!
We enjoyed our stay in Wells Beach. There is so much within proximity of the house that makes the location perfect. It's a short drive into both Kennebunkport and Ogunquit but there is a lot to do right there in Wells as well. The beach access from the house is perfect and really great for young kids.

My family of 4 and I enjoyed our stay. It was very comfortable and accommodating. It was nice going to sleep and waking up to the beach sounds every day. Everything we enjoyed was walking distance, and very accessible, especially a local family-friendly restaurant, Forbes walking distance five minutes away. We would definitely come back and recommend this property to our family and friends.
Absolutely beautiful property with incredible views of the ocean. We celebrated my husbands birthday with our family and there could not have been a better place to relax and enjoy family time. The home was exactly as described. Extremely well cared for by owner. Short walk to town square to find shopping and food. Plenty of room for four adults and a toddler! Plenty to do but we chose to enjoy the incredible serenity of the waves from the large porch. Already looking to book for next year.
We had a perfect vacation. Our 3 year old grand son really enjoyed hunting for shells!
We loved our early morning walks on the beach. You can’t beat a water front location!
Thanks

About the host
Hosted by David Gamblin
My family and I have been vacationing at Wells Beach for the last 15-20 years. We do enjoy the family atmosphere at this beach. Before purchasing 131 Atlantic, we stayed at all the motels and hotels along Rte 1. The daily vacation drama of will we find a parking spot by the beach and packing up the car and being careful not to forget anything as we'd have to drive back to get it - (and risk losing our parking spot) was not really fun. We started staying right by the beach and our stress levels decreased dramatically. Everything about Wells in the summer is fun (see Congdon's Doughnuts, Billy's Chowder House, Mikes Clam Shack, The Steak House and even Dairy Queen). We take a lot of pride in our home and constantly look to upgrade.
Why they chose this property
If you want the positively best Wells Beach experience, then stay right on the beach. This home is the ultimate in convenience and experience. You can watch the tide come in and go out from the deck or living room. Watching the sunrise and sunset over the ocean from your comfortable chair on your deck is absolutely therapeutic. This home is also strategically located between Public Way #2 and Public Way #3. The distance from both can decrease the potential for crowds that is sometimes seen right at the exit of a Public Way. The location of this home is absolutely amazing.
What makes this property unique
Beachfront - Right there - 180 degree ocean views - People watching from your deck - Large windows looking out over the Atlantic Ocean everyday.
