The Tides Beach Club, Kennebunkport, Maine, USA
Kennebunkport's only beachfront hotel, this Victorian clapboard beauty is quintessential New England coastal chic with a light, airy vibe and a lively social scene. Watch the waves break on the shore from the comfort of the front porch, wend your way down the beach path to sink your toes in the sand, splash in the surf, and take full advantage of the thoughtful beach amenities on Goose Rock Beach, then head back to the hotel for classic cocktails in the lobby.
