Unfortunately, I would not recommend renting from Salt Air Properties. I recently booked an Airbnb…read morethrough them for a future stay in October, but found out my father in law had recently been diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. As soon as we found out, I knew that our plans may need to change as his prognosis wasn't looking good so I went to Airbnb to see what our cancellation options were. I realized I was 3 days late to a full refund. The partial refund was still available to me though, which was 50% a night minus the service fee. I figured it might still be worth a shot to explain the situation at hand and see if the host was able to accommodate us, and make exception for a full refund or even a credit for a future stay. I sent Amanda a direct message with the request mentioned, and she had advised to reach out to Airbnb to explore my cancellation options. I reached out to Airbnb and they said I could try to request for the full refund and though there is a cancellation policy, the host can ultimately decide if they want to honor a full refund and make exceptions given the situation at hand. They even said they saw the messages and felt the host was understanding so requesting the full refund looked promising. Anyways, we tried working out having me request the full refund and I was not able to due to access issues. The Airbnb agent then said she could request for at least what I was already owed (50% minus service fee), and I can just request for the remaining balance after and the host will just have to approve that request for the full refund. It wasn't until after that I realized by doing that, Airbnb had to cancel my reservation. I asked if it could be undone but they said it could not. So, that was done but I figured I'll just do what I can now. I submitted for the remaining balance and even uploaded documents of proof of us going to the pulmonologist and being recently diagnosed. Within a day or two, I got a message that Amanda denied the full refund. I got my partial refund, but there was an amount I lost. I reached out to her again and requested if there was a possibility I can just rebook the same reservation (with the same dates) so at least some of my other family members can go even if some of us had to stay back. The dates were still available, I requested to pay back the refund I got back, but just requested if we can just at least use the funds I lost during this process towards the reservation again. Amanda said no and that I would have to rebook the reservation again and essentially now, pay MORE because she was not willing to use those lost funds towards the original reservation. I am truly upset by the lack of professionalism, empathy, compassion, and communication by the host. What was the purpose of having me reach out to Airbnb to explore my cancellation options if you knew you weren't going to honor the full refund or credit request? Amanda could have been fully transparent and also practiced more compassion to explain that she understood the situation at hand but couldn't honor the request and a partial refund would be the best she could do. I would have been more than fine with that because I do understand I missed the cancellation policy for a full refund by a few days. But not being direct, transparent, and compassionate was disheartening. On top of that, not even considering the accommodation of returning the reservation to us if I was willing to pay back the refund and use my lost funds towards it... that was all I needed to know about her. Greed over compassion. She could do better as a host and as a human being. I hate that I even have to give a 1 star. Also wished I saw that she had a yelp review before I booked. I would've much rather provided business to another host that would be much more deserving.

There are sporadic antiques throughout the inn such as the runners to an old sleigh that now become the banisters to the staircase that leads to the guest rooms upstairs.

I live in Portland, Maine and eat at all the fabulous restaurants but this meal was beyond fantastic and in comparison, the chef could easily compete. She is the daughter of the owners, young, spirited, talented and gorgeous. How lucky to have her in the kitchen and how lucky for those who eat there to bask in her excellent abilities!

The inn is full of charm, history, and character, and you can tell how much love and care George and Matt have put into preserving this beautiful place. Every room and every little detail has a story. What really makes this place special, though, is the hospitality. George and Matt make you feel less like a guest and more like an old friend who's come to visit. The rooms are cozy and comfortable, the breakfasts are incredible, and the whole experience feels warm, welcoming, and unforgettable. We left already talking about when we could come back. If you're thinking about booking a stay, don't overthink it--just do it. You won't regret it.

It's a basic motel, but it's very clean and cozy and provided us with some quality sleep time. There's also a restaurant inside the motel area, called Elm Street Grille, which unfortunately closes very early in the evening (at least for our standards), and that offers also breakfast. We actually got two 5$ coupons for breakfast that we used the morning after and we were very pleased with the choice (I'll write a separate review for that). If you don't mind a little walking, you can get in the center of Camden in 10-15 minutes depending on your pace (honestly it looked closer when we first booked it). If you don't want to move your car to go to town then maybe you should look for a different place, otherwise it's a place I'd recommend.

The suite was spacious, extremely clean, and featured an amazing shower and an incredibly comfortable bed. We also happened to be visiting during an unusual heat wave, and the air conditioning did an impressive job--which was no small feat given the suite's two-story layout and high ceilings. Coming back to a cool, comfortable room each afternoon and evening was something we appreciated even more than we expected. The breakfasts each morning tasted every bit as good as they looked and kept us full until dinnertime! My husband was running late our first morning (we struggled to adjust from West Coast time), and Matt and Jessica kindly prepared an off-menu breakfast sandwich for him to enjoy later (which was fantastic, by the way). Admittedly, we weren't the most punctual breakfast guests during our stay, yet they couldn't have been more gracious about it. That level of flexibility and kindness certainly did not go unnoticed. Speaking of the innkeepers, I was impressed by how they managed to strike the perfect balance of being warm and welcoming without ever being over the top. They seemed to take their cue from each guest, happily engaging in conversation when invited while also giving everyone plenty of space to enjoy their stay. In my opinion, that can be one of the trickiest parts of staying at a bed-and-breakfast, but Matt and Jessica absolutely nailed it. The inn itself is beautifully maintained, with thoughtful details throughout that make it feel welcoming and special without being stuffy or pretentious. I kept thinking of it as "understated pampering". The location is also ideal--an easy walk to Camden Harbor, shops, and restaurants, while serving as a perfect home base for exploring the many beautiful destinations within an hour's drive. It's clear that Matt and Jessica genuinely care about creating an exceptional experience for their guests. We left feeling relaxed, well cared for, and hoping we might find a reason to return in the future. We highly recommend the Captain Swift Inn!
