The Colony Hotel, Kennebunkport — Nestled between the mouth of the Kennebunk River and the tip of St. Ann's point, The Colony Hotel faces the southwesterly breeze head on but is protected from the spring and fall easterly storm winds by the headland behind and to the east of it. There is no other place like it, anywhere.
