The restaurant itself was beautifully decorated, creating a festive and welcoming atmosphere that made the evening feel special from the moment we arrived. The staff were incredibly attentive, friendly, and on top of every detail, which made the event completely stress-free for our group. Truly a perfect evening. We'll absolutely be back and would highly recommend this spot for group gatherings or celebrations.

Walkable to stores, a brewery, restaurants, etc....It is likely you won't touch your car all stay if you don't want to.

The staff is attentive to any and all needs and always with a smile!.

So we came at 7:00 PM and waited 30 minutes but the "We will be back" sign was wrong. Blue stains in the room and the toilet was ruined. Loud noises. Let's not forget that the bed smelt like sweat. When we first came in, it smelt horrible and was burning hot inside. Microwave also smelt horrible. And zero parking. Horrible, do NOT go ever.

Price range was a bit steep and normally not worth it but it was Memorial Day weekend so all the hotels/houses hit the roof on rentals. The parking is supposed to be 1 car a room but that was definitely not the case that weekend as if you left you could not find a space at night when you returned so beware. Some suggestions: The room was clean but would recommend the tub to be re grouted as had started coming off around the rim and in some spots going black. The front desk has limited hours and I noticed that some folks trying to check in late were looking around like they had no idea what to do; perhaps just in case sending folks an email with the plan to get their keys if late. Their website said check in at 3pm but when we got there they asked us to come back for 4pm checkin which was a hassle as traffic that weekend on the strip was bumper to bumper to go anywhere; and they wouldn't let me check in early as my room was not ready. The one good thing is I was able to check out by dropping off the key in their slot as again no one was there in the office.. something I also was not instructed to do so would've been helpful to know that. I would say based on cost, and other items mentioned I would consider staying here again if it was a bit less expensive on a non holiday weekend now that I know what to expect and not pay premium prices for mediocre services. I cannot speak to the pool or courts as we did not use them.

It's only steps to one of the most beautiful beaches in the northeast, and the oceanview from the screened-in porch is simply stunning. The house is light and bright and yet still very cozy. It's tastefully decorated with a beach theme and the kitchen is newly redone. It has a huge wrap around porch that is the perfect place to relax and unwind and listen to the sound of the waves. We lived there for ten months and literally walked our dog on the beach every single day...even in the snow! Aside from the house and location being exceptional, the landlords are wonderful and make sure everything is taken care of during your stay. If you are looking to rent a beautiful house in a great neighborhood that is a stone's throw from the beach, you won't be disappointed!

Perkins Cove gets really busy on summer weekends, so there wasn't any parking in the lot. We did see that our spot was open and asked if we could just park there for 2 hours before we checked in. Within 2 minutes we got a response that we could check in. This was great news since we were traveling with a 1.5 year old that needed to rest. The location is absolutely beautiful. It's very peaceful at night. During the day the cove is buzzing with activity. There were plenty of places to grab food from just by walking out the front door. There is also a trolly that runs every 20-30 minutes during the summer that will go to the main beach which is super convenient. The space had everything we could need. They had all the kitchen amenities you would need to prepare meals. A tv in every room and a washer and dryer. The unit was fully stocked. We absolutely loved the place and our vacation. A few things to note, during the day the cove is very busy during the summer. This comes with loud tourists. We could also hear the kids in the unit below us running through their rental and crying at night. We were in the Seaside Serenity 2, which is on the top of the building. You will have to carry everything up 2 flights of stairs. We were not bothered by this and will definitely be back.

The ages of the women ranged from 40 to 76 years of age. We had meetings of the vacation and what was going to be planned for all of us. On the day of the trip most of us drove in torrential rainfall to the deluxe oceanfront hotel in Old orchard Beach Maine and a few of us were going for the first time. When my party arrived, Laurie and a good amount of our girls were standing outside under the stairs in this torrential rain when the owner came and told us they had canceled our reservations and kicked us off the property with a very strong language Laurie Davis who was crying and very upset at this time, because she had never ever been treated this way before, had to let us know what had taken place. 36 of us women going and quite a few newbies. Laurie had to tell us we had to leave. I have been on these trips to this motel before and accommodations were always wonderful. The staff and management were always great to us. Now Miss Davis has been doing these trips for some 20 odd years, and never had any problems until this year. We have always left this hotel or motel clean and we had tipped very well most of us had to buy groceries gasoline for a vehicle pay a babysitter take time off from work to go on this vacation, which never took place. Everyone was very upset and stressed out from all of this. This is not how you would treat guest's. I, myself will never and I mean never be placing a reservation at this motel. And I will make sure that I tell anyone that comes to Old orchard Beach to stay clear all the deluxe oceanfront hotel. As far as the ratings go, it would be a minus 100. The worst service from management to the owner of this business I have ever seen in my traveling days. I am a 71-year-old lady.
