We came to Maine from Texas to get away and spend time in one of our favorites places!
This house did not disappoint, it was clean and very easy to get in to! It has amazing views and within walking distance to everything.
The beds are comfy and our 4 year old loved the bathtub in the bedroom lol
The ONLY thing I would change is there being deadbolts on the inside of the doors to feel a little safer.
We didn’t know how the locks on the code part of the door worked and left the stairway door unlocked all day long, user error…but still just a thought

The property and location were a 5/5. The hosts were great with information and quick to respond if needed. The unit was perfectly located and extremely clean. The fifth floor was a great vantage point to see the busy port.
It wall also nice being able to walk to so many great restaurants and stores.
Will no doubt book there again.

We stayed here for five nights before and after our daughter’s wedding. The location was perfect we walked to restaurants, had a parking space for all the errands, and basked in the view of the harbor when we were relaxing. Will go to Portland again soon and try to stay here!

Have you ever stayed in a place where you prayed for rain so you wouldn’t be able to leave and explore all the wonderful places steps from your residence? Seriously, this actually happened! The view was absolutely breathtaking. Every imaginable need was met in this paradise. The inside was almost as attractive as the view. The description of all amenities were well documented and useful This was the height of Luxury! We did pry ourselves away to many of the restaurants that were all fabulous although cooking could have been an waxy option. I wish to schedule another trip to Heaven on earth!!

We come to Portland a lot and Scott’s place is the best place we’ve stayed in! It has gorgeous views, it’s in a prime location, it has free parking which is super convenient and the condo itself is gorgeous and spacious. We are already planning to rent this place and the one across the hall in a month for our wedding weekend!

The 4 of us stayed at this lovely penthouse facing the harbor & throughly enjoyed our stay for the week. The place was close to the highway so we could go up and down the coast to visit the various sites. There was shopping and restaurants all within walking distance of the penthouse.

The property is beautiful and was perfect for us. We loved the view, location, security. The only single comment is the the Master bathroom shower has a very slow drain. Would recommend this property to anyone.

Our family of four loved staying at Cornelia. The location is everything, it’s convenient and allows you to walk everywhere. The view and access to rooftop deck was fantastic. We had everything we needed in the apartment, we cooked in a ton and loved walking over to the seafood market steps away. Highly recommend!!

He had such a nice stay here. Perfect location especially for the fourth of July fireworks. Bed was comfortable. The only thing I would suggest would be to bring bottled water with you. There is no water filter in the apartment for drinking. Would stay again.

The property was as described, in a great location, and parking was a nice added touch. On Friday and Saturday evenings the area is busy into the evenings, but our family of 4 slept through it just fine. You could hear people on the street, but it wasn't loud at all inside. Monday quieted down much earlier in the evening. Love the location and views and would definitely stay again if I'm ever in the Portland area.

Thank you!

Our plan was to spend two evenings having great meals in Portland to celebrate our Wedding Anniversary. This place was a bonus. It is incredibly comfortable with the best views in Portland. The highlight of the trip was slowly sharing a bottle of Champagne on the deck with an old friend. It was a perfect evening. Our stay here was a unique experience we will always remember.

Great Overall Stay. Good Location. Good Space with Beautiful Views. Only Problem we had was that the Linens were not clean on the beds when we arrived. Large yellow stains on Duvet cover, and mascara on the pillows. Good communication from owners.

Scott’s penthouse rental is superb—perfect location in the Old Port with fantastic views from luxurious accommodations. We highly recommend his place for a splurge of a getaway to Portland!

My husband and I stayed here for 4 nights in February for a get-away weekend. We experienced the coldest weather in a generation- wind chills down to - 40 degrees! But we stayed warm and cozy with the help of the gas fireplace. It was so beautiful to just sit and watch the ever-changing scene on the port. This must be the best view in Portland. Unfortunately could not use either of the 2 outside decks due to weather, but they would be perfect in the summer. This condo was quiet, big, top of the line everything, short walks to great restaurants and bars. Perfect for 2 couples. Highly recommend, would love to return someday!
