We just walked through the door from another amazing three night stay at Hidden Pond and I just had to sit down immediately and write a review. I honestly don’t think it could possibly have gone any better! This is one of those hidden gems that everyone hunts for and seldom finds. It is an idyllic and romantic retreat in the forest of Kennebunk that features a variety of well designed, upscale rustic cottages, a gorgeous treehouse themed spa, a lovely pool area and an Out Of This World high end restaurant called Earth. It is a super chill environment with cocktails by the fire pits and if you are looking for more to do you can hike or cruise into Kennebunkport for all it has to offer. The features are top notch but what separates this place from literally every other high end place in southern ME is the staff. Everyone is professional, polite and on top of it. We make a point of getting to know the staff everywhere we go. We return to the places we love year after year. It is obvious when there is an effective hiring and training plan in place because it drives retention of staff and consistent guest experience. We have now known Corey (Assistant GM), Robin (Food and Beverage Mgr) and Lilly (Ops Mgr) for three years. Finer people you will not meet and professionally they have created something that is so special. They have built a bullet proof team with folks like Pricilla, Amber and Bridget at the front desk, and Kurt and Grace in the dining room. This trip we were joined by friends who had never been there and they were blown away. Corey really was the star this season as he went way out of his way to arrange a guided forest experience and several other requests that required follow up and follow through. We so appreciate the extra effort. We have already booked our first stay for next year and we cannot wait to return!

Our daughter’s wedding at Hidden Pond was spectacular! A gorgeous setting, luxurious rooms, attentive and patient service and excellent food. Our guests all loved the experience and wish we could have stayed longer.

The property is absolutely beautiful and the staff is so kind. Everyone we interacted with acknowledged us and was always smiling. The cottage was perfect and had all the things you needed to be comfortable. The grounds were so beautiful and the trails were nice to explore.

The whole experience was beyond excellent! The accommodations were superb. The front desk staff , Maddie, Priscilla and Amber along with the transportation shuttle staff Keno and CJ are so professional and attended to our every request and need. We stayed in a two bedroom tree top where we experienced the most beautiful, serene setting. Every morning delicious croissants, homemade muffins, or poundcake were left at our front door, along with coffee in a thermos for breakfast. Attention to detail is of the upmost importance and nothing is left to chance. It was evident with our experience that Corey Lens, Assistant General Manager, is committed to assuring all visitors experience a truly unique vacation. It was very easy to communicate with the front desk concerning needs via a text system. Communications were answered immediately. One of the best vacations ever! Looking forward to my return trip.

Hidden Pond is a gem-peaceful and relaxing with amenities that make it luxurious -a pool, a shuttle to the wonderful beach thoughtfully driven by Gary and beach set up from a group of fellows that are so attentive (Troy,Matt, Nick, Anthony, Charlie Ian and Ethan) They are on different shifts to serve you and also can get you lunch from the beach menu from Tides. The bungalow was delightful. All around the facilities are wonderful. The thing that makes Hidden Pond even better is the kind, friendly, helpful staff. No matter what is needed they are willing from the start at the front desk (Bridget, Maddie, Lilly) to the servers Alwick, Aidian, Brett at delicious Earth, and Ryan and Ricardo throughout the property. Each person taking care of their guests no matter what this tasks. If you want a place to unwind and be treated well this is the place.
