Seaside Serenity 2 Oceanfront: A Beachfront Home in Ogunquit

Why Stay
Why Seaside Serenity 2 Oceanfront
Ogunquit's charm lives in its proximity to the water, and few lodging options put you closer to it than Seaside Serenity 2 Oceanfront. This is not a hotel with an ocean view; it's a beachfront home where the Atlantic is your backyard. Two bedrooms, a fully equipped kitchen, and direct access to a private beach stretch make it the kind of place families return to year after year, often for a week at a time.
The location alone - 117 Perkins Cove Road, just steps from the cove itself and a short walk from the Marginal Way - positions you to spend mornings watching lobster boats unload and afternoons exploring galleries and shops without ever needing to drive. If you're the type who wants to cook some meals during a Maine stay rather than eat out for every dinner, the kitchen here isn't an afterthought. It's real, fully fitted, and equipped with everything from a dishwasher to a full stovetop and oven.
This is seasonal lodging in a destination where the calendar matters. Summer fills up fast. Shoulder seasons offer solitude and lower rates. Year-round, though, you're staying on the water in one of Maine's most walkable villages.
Direct beachfront access with a private beach area. Step out of the house onto sand and rock. You don't share this stretch with the public; it belongs to the property. Sunrise swims, afternoon beach picnics, and sunset walks are possible without leaving the grounds.
A full kitchen means you control your Maine food bill. Breakfast in your own space, lunch fixings from Ogunquit's farmer's markets, and evening dinners you've prepared or assembled. Coffee is made the moment you wake up, not waiting for restaurant service.
Two bedrooms and a private bathroom suit small families or two couples. The space is organized like an actual home rather than a hotel unit sectioned into rooms. A dining area lets you gather together; a sitting area lets you spread out.
Parking is free and on-site. No street hunting, no paid lots. Drive in, park, and you're done with the car for the week in most cases - everything worth seeing is walkable.
Soundproof construction and a private entrance mean no hallway noise or check-in lines. You're renting a residence, not a hotel room. The separation matters when you're staying more than a night or two.
Rooms
The rooms
The property holds two bedrooms in a single beachfront unit. Bedding includes quality linens; one bathroom is shared. Hardwood or parquet flooring runs through the living areas, and windows frame sea views or landmark vistas depending on orientation.
The bedroom configuration suits families (one larger room for parents, one for children) or two couples (each with privacy, shared common space). The sofa in the sitting area offers a third sleeping option for younger children if needed.

Seasons
When to visit
Summer (June–August). Peak season, fully booked weeks in advance. Water is swimmable (though cool). All attractions open. Book early or expect higher rates and limited availability.
Fall (September–October). Ideal shoulder season. Fewer crowds, still warm enough for beach days. Foliage builds inland; coastal gardens are at their peak. Many attractions remain open through October.
Spring (April–May). Warming trend but unpredictable - some days feel like summer, others require a sweater. Tourist season hasn't started. Good for couples seeking quiet time and lower rates.
Winter (November–March). Minimal tourism. Cold, windier, shorter daylight. Worth it for solitude and deep discounts, but plan indoor activities. Some nearby restaurants may have limited hours.
