I loved the breakfast, but I can imagine in the summertime, when it is busy, that the area would be too small and uncomfortable to maneuver. We also loved the room and the gas insert fireplace. We did not have any neighbors so it was really quiet. I am not sure if that would be true during the peak season.

Planned a quick weekend getaway and was beyond happy with our hotel. We stayed in The Cupola suite which occupies the entire 3rd floor. Beautifully decorated and very spacious, you would want to live there! PROS: Friendly Staff Delicious Breakfast (and complimentary) Complimentary Water Cupola suite thoughtfully decorated. Few minutes walk to downtown Quiet CONS: Very Minor The Cupola living room could have had another lamp, was very dark. For this price point I would expect feather down in the sleeping pillows. Wish I'd bought slippers, there were numerous nails sticking up on the floor and a few pairs of our socks constantly got caught and got ruined. Look Forward to staying here again!

Wonderful greeting on checkin. The room was nice. The bathroom a little awkwardly designed. We had trouble figuring out the shower but it had great water pressure and worked fine. The breakfast is ample and varied. Better than most brunches we've been to. Will stay again!

Probably nicer in the summer…..
Nice place. We are an older couple and arrived about 5:30 and it was already dark. The women who checked us in said your cabin is that way, showed us around the main house a little and left. We could not easily find our room. They were poorly lit and it took us a couple of passes to find the numbers. Also there was no one around to help us up several steps with our bags. The bed was tucked very close to the wall on one side and difficult to get around the platform. It was only of average comfort. The breakfast was simple, breads, bagels with toppings and plain yogurt with some assorted toppings

I expected more
There are pros and cons to AWOL. Pros… location is perfect, room was very clean, service was great, nice bedding and towels, and the breakfast spread was very nice (but only went on Saturday, one day of our stay). Cons…. Mattress was awful, we both felt like we were going to roll out, bathroom was ridiculously small, furniture was not comfy, window looked right into the next unit (directly across from bathroom), the paths to the cabin units are sand which gets everywhere and has ruts with the rain, and the parking flooded leaving the one attendant to try to get the mud out… she tried, but the property needed to have a power washer to clean the mud. I would not stay here again, as the cons outweighed the location. Given the cabins are very new, the layouts are just not great. I was looking at AWOL in VT, but will not be staying there given this experience.

AWOL is a nice place to stay. Close enough to walk to the main stretch but far enough away where it isn't crowded. We also very much appreciated that rooms were 21 , 2 people per room. The suite itself was very lovely. The top floor terrace was impressive and we enjoyed that spot quite a bit. The suite definitely had a wow factor to it. It was a very unique space. The stairs were steep and steps tall - I could see where someone may have trouble with those. The most notable thing missing in the suite was a way to make coffee/hot water in the unit, though available in the common area. The breakfast offerings looked very good (coffee was good!). The staff were very nice and polite. We would definitely stay here again when visiting Kennebunkport.
