This was a great property for a girls trip with my sister. Location was perfect! Easy walk or drive to restaurants, shops and the water. Breathtaking scenery steps from the property. Full kitchen, living room, two bedrooms and a bath offered plenty of room to spread out. Street parking was easy to find. If we make our way back to Maine, we would definitely stay here again! Thank you Allyson!
Allyson, your place is beautiful.....enjoyed the two nights....decorated in great fashion...well supplied in kitchen and bath...neighborhood wonderful for walking....would definitely use your place again....just tell guests it is two flights up...no problem for me but problem for my friend...thanks again
We enjoyed this beautiful, quaint upstairs apartment while we explored Portland for the first time. It's in a convenient location with a view of a bay area from the side porch. It rained quite a bit while we were there, so we weren't able to take advantage of the cross breeze from open windows. Allyson was very responsive and provided a few additional items that we requested. She stayed in contact and made sure she had met our needs. We had a wonderful time strolling along the waterfront, going on a bay harbor cruise and taking the ferry to Peaks Island.
The only drawback of this beautiful apartment is the bed in the 2nd bedroom didn't have a ton of space above it.
Overall, lovely place and great location! We would recommend staying here!
Les points faibles : Communication et exactitude de lâannonce
The property was not as advertised. We checked in Sunday night, 7/13 and left at 8:46 am Monday morning. Sunday night I sent Alyson a text via VRBO messaging explaining our issues (not comprehensive) and spoke with Alysson Monday morning. She asked us to leave immediately and stated that we had caused her great distress. She said she would refund the charges. The home is not an oasis and the host is less than professional.
Third-floor apartment was very cute and cozy. Perfect for my family of four. Ashley was the best host we have ever worked with! Friendly, responsive, and full of great recommendations in Portland Maine. Great stay, great place!
The apartment was very clean and quiet. We would absolutely stay there again. Steps away from the beautiful Eastern Promenade and an easy just over mile walk to Old Port for sightseeing tours, shopping and dining!
We spent 3 nights here while attending a wedding in Portland. The neighborhood is beautiful and quiet, and only minutes to everything the city has to offer. The apartment was super clean and comfortable. It's a third floor walk-up so you must climb two flights of stairs, but if that's no issue you'll really enjoy Allyson's place. Her communication was excellent, too!
Property was exactly as described, clean, light and bright. Well stocked and strong Wi-Fi connection with a beautiful view, so lovely we already booked a return visit, and no doubt we will be back again!
Our stay at Allysonâs was fabulous! A quiet, clean, peaceful retreat. So comfy and charming. Besides her sending us to a Nebraska bar to watch Iowa football;)âŠ..it was a delight. We will be back. Go Hawks;)
We loved our stay here, everything was as listed and very clean. Location was perfect, we never drove more than 15 minutes away our whole trip. Would 100% stay again!!
We enjoyed the quiet of the neighborhood, the proximity to the waterfront and neighborhood stores. It was a bit cumbersome getting to the third floor with luggage and we had some issues with the door lock. Also, the apartment could have been a little larger. The bustling downtown was a good walk away but doable, at least for us. We liked walking along the Westside waterfront, which was busy with activities.
This property was just as advertised. It was clean and comfortable. It has a welcoming feel. My wife and our friends were very impressed!!! The location was perfect. Short (but hilly) walks to the East End Promenade, East End business on Washington, and the the Old Port. Check in was a breeze. We are already talking about a return trip! Highly recommended!
Nice 3rd floor apartment ⊠just 2 flights of stairs, so not bad. Well furnished and equipped rental. Walking distance to Portland Observatory (a must see!), a beach and the Eastern Promenade. Downtown area 1.5 miles if youâre up for a walk. Would definitely recommend is youâre looking to stay on Munjoy Hill.
I have rented many VRBOâs in the past and never had a problem. It started when I had to contact VRBO hours before to check in to get the access information. I had reached out to the host days before and heard nothing. We got in but had problems locking the door that night. Multiple calls, texts and emails went unanswered. Contacted VRBO again and they got no response. The host contacts us the next morning and told us to leave and we would get a refund. We check into a hotel and then host reneges on the offer. Host called us liars and said we checked back in. We contact VRBO again and got a partial refund. The place wasnât bad but the aggravation wasnât worth it.
Really well appointed apartment with everything we needed and more . Alison is a very responsive host and delightful to work with. Air conditioning was much appreciated during a summer heatwave! Just blocks off the promenade, Jin Jang , Front Room, markets, coffee and more. The only downsides are walk up is challenging with large suitcases and while bed in 2BR is super comfy, it is crammed into slanted ceiling and cannot comfortably sleep 2 people. Apartment is best suited for no more than 3 people. Overall we loved our stay here and highly recommend!
Had a fantastic time here! Location is within walking distance of great views and food. Adorable neighborhood and plenty of parking. Space was exactly as described. Owner very responsive. Would definitely rent again!
Our second visit to the property. Charming and conveniently located, nestled in a quiet neighborhood steps from the Eastern Prom and itâs stately Victorian homes. If you are an early riser, you can watch the sunrise over Casco Bay from the living room windows. The owner, Allyson, is the perfect hostess.
Born and raised in Scarborough, Maine, by a Farmer ~Fisherman Family. So excited to share my home with folks from around the world! Portland has changed so much over the years - we have so much to offer. Farm to Table Restaurants, Day Boat Lobster adventures, tour the islands off Casco Bay or just take a stroll a block to sit on the Eastern Promenade to enjoy the view.
You have the opportunity to rent 2 floors to accommodate 8 guests with 4 Queen Beds , 2 baths, 2 kitchens and private back yard and decks. Just ask me how! Please contact Allyson direct 207-776-1226 or ajordannew@gmail.com
