Welcome to Serenity by the Sea!

Where salty air meets soul-soothing luxury and every detail is curated for connection, comfort, and calm.

Just one mile from the ocean and steps from the beloved Scoop Deck, this HGTV-inspired beach house invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and enjoy the little things that make a vacation feel like home. Whether you're gathering around the fire pit with a cozy throw and a glass of wine or sipping your morning coffee on the deck while the kids play in the salty breeze, this is where memories are made.

Step inside to a spacious, light-filled kitchen that calls for pancake breakfasts, seafood dinners, and laughter-filled evenings. The fully stocked coffee and tea bar is your go-to morning ritual, and the snack basket waiting for you upon arrival ensures you're nourished from the start — especially after a long travel day.

We’ve thought of everything so you don’t have to!

From plush pillows in every firmness (because we’re pillow picky too) to kid-friendly touches like toys, books, a high chair, and a pack 'n play — Serenity by the Sea is designed for families, dreamers, and beach lovers alike.

Yes, your pup is welcome too!

Great accommodations!

The rental home was exceptionally clean, well maintained and well appointed. Always pleasant walking into a nice, clean space, particularly given the home is pet friendly! A great location for short drives to take day trips to explore Portland, Kennebunkport, Portsmouth, etc. Highly recommend!

Clean, Spacious Common Space, Nice Amenities

We had a great stay at this unit. The first floor is one open space with a large kitchen island, elevated dining table and large living room L couch. Good for gathering with streaming options on the TV. Everything was easy to find and well explained in a guest book. The complementary bathroom products were great as well.

Wonderful, Wonderful stay

Could not ask for a better home. The house had it all, very clean and i'll stress the word clean. Great quiet neighborhood. Loved it all. The central a/c was wonderful. I could go on and on about our stay at their home. You will never be sorry if you rent this home. I hope to rent again this coming year. Diane

Great time!

We have been coming up to Maine since I was little. Always love going every year. This place is as advertised. Very spacious and clean. Owners help if need be while you are there. Our family was very comfortable. Had a few things if needed for your dog. We are looking forward to going back next year!!

Complete

The house had everything you could think of. Other than food, everything was included. Having outdoor games and bikes to use was great and the location was a short walk to the beach. We visited several close picturesque towns and Wells was near so many activities it was hard to choose what to partake in.
