"We loved our stay! From the staff to the decor, we were impressed with Hotel Thaxter. It is so charming and a wonderful alternative to a more commercial hotel. It felt like we were staying in someone’s home, without paying the fees of a vacation rental. "
"This was by far one of the best staycations we have had. The care and love that is put into every detail of this place. Very clean, very nice, perfect pool.
Just loved it!"

"We have just returned from a week at York Beach and enjoyed every minute of our vacation .. there were 11 of us ranging from 6 years to 76 years ! Location cannot be beat .. short drive to Nubble lighthouse, Fox’s, Dunne’s ice cream, or short walk to the Goldenrod, Wicked Good Ice Cream, the Fun o Rama, bowling , shops and restaurants ! Easy access to beach … a beach wagon is available for guest use… beds were comfortable .. house was immaculately clean.. plenty of towels and beach towels …views are amazing and I miss the view while enjoying my morning coffee ! We hope to return again ! I used to go to York Beach with my grandparents and I’m glad I could introduce my boys, their wives and my grandchildren to a place that is so special to me ! Be sure to check out Anthony’s on route 1 for great pizza/ sandwiches / Italian dishes to go… nice Hannafords nearby and Stonewall kitchen is a short drive ! "
