The Colony Hotel
80% independentA grand white-clapboard landmark perched on Ocean Avenue where Kennebunkport meets the Atlantic, The Colony trades in the unhurried rhythms of an older kind of seaside summer. Rooms are polished but unfussy, and the grounds hold a heated saltwater pool and organic gardens that supply a property as much devoted to porch-sitting as to swimming. Mornings begin with breakfast included, and the lawns do double duty as one of the coast's long-standing wedding settings.
Why we call this independent
The independent, place-specific name and standalone website (colonymaine.com) show no chain or brand-affiliation signals, and the editorial summary explicitly frames it as a historic inn with hand-tended features like organic gardens. The score is tempered by its scale — 616 reviews, resort and wedding-venue classifications — which suggests a larger property than a small owner-run B&B.
