Breakwater Inn

The Breakwater Inn occupies one of Kennebunkport's most storied waterfront sites, where the Kennebunk River meets the Atlantic Ocean. Following an extensive renovation, the historic property made a stylish return to Maine's hospitality scene in July 2025, pairing its classic coastal setting with refreshed guest rooms and three new culinary venues. Rooms look out over the river mouth and open water, and the location places guests within easy reach of Dock Square, the beaches, and the working harbor that define Kennebunkport. The reimagined inn balances its heritage as a grand riverside hotel with a contemporary food-and-beverage program, making it a notable independent addition to the southern Maine coast.
