This cottage is Heaven. Run don't walk to book this if it's available. We had a fantastic time celebrating our 30th Wedding Anniversary. We spent a day in Boothbay Harbor and another day at the Botanical Gardens. The rest of the time we enjoyed relaxing and seeing the views from every room except the bathroom. We had our own beach, which we went out at low tide to hunt for treasures. We accessed the beach using a nice sturdy fairly new staircase.It is truly a peaceful and quiet location. You hear the ocean and the birds and if you're lucky the bell on the Pemaquid buoy. Speaking of, you are a 5 minute drive from the Pemaquid Lighthouse. You will see lobster trap bouys, lobster boats, sailboats. The cottage was spotless. We have rented many places and this one will remain in our hearts forever.

This house was everything we could have asked for. Location is ideal: very private, gorgeous views, but also there's a grocery store 5 minutes away.Everything in the house was high quality: sheets and towels, curtains, dressers, etc. Walking in it felt like everything was very clean and in great shape.We got quick responses from the host when things went wrong, and they were dealt with immediately. Cannot recommend this place highly enough!

Amazing property!!

Aquahela is the perfect cottage on the coast of Maine! The views are amazing and the house is well equipped with everything you could need. The location couldn’t be better…private yet close to the lighthouse, grocery store, lobster pounds & restaurants. We had a hard time leaving the property during our stay because we enjoyed watching the water, the tides, the birds…and collecting special treasures on the beach. So restful and so much fun…we will definitely be repeat visitors.

We enjoyed ourselves so much in May we came back for a second stay this year! Wonderful property! Great location on the bay. Close to the lighthouse, restaurants, and market…but quiet and private. Has all the amenities and extras one could need. Owner/host easy to communicate with. The high point of our stay were the three eagles that fished out front almost daily. It was thrilling to see them so close. We will certainly be back!!

Beautiful location, really enjoyed the stay. The stairs are a challenge especially with no landing at the top. Didn't receive any notification about check-in and I got no answer when I called but when I checked the door was unlocked and keys were on the table. Everything was very clean and the kitchen was well equipped.
