Destination Kennebunkport Website Launched
With the mid-June debut of The Grand, the newly built 17-room boutique hotel located in the heart of Kennebunk, the Kennebunkport Resort Collection (KRC) introduces www.destinationkennebunkport.com, a convenient, one-stop source for information and reservations for the growing hotel company's six distinctive properties, together with information about dozens of local restaurants, charming boutiques, and nearby recreational pursuits.

With input from longtime locals, the colorful website also includes “insider” tips and fun facts on everything from where to buy lobster to where former president George H.W. Bush prefers to tee off.

On the site, visitors can research KRC's six properties, review packages and specials at each of the hotels and resorts, sign up for email offers and book a stay. In addition to highlighting KRC's own hotel properties, restaurants and catering venues, the site features favorite local dining options, an extensive “local services” section pointing travelers to every conceivable need, including local churches, dentists, grocery stores and auto repair. A “Weddings & Events” tab offers detailed information about some of Kennebunkport's most sought-after event spaces.

“Kennebunkport has so much to offer,” says Debbie Lennon of the Kennebunkport Resort Collection, which owns and operates six luxury resort properties in and around Kennebunkport. “We wanted the site to feature inspiring images to spark the interest of first-time travelers, but also include the sort of practical information that our longtime visitors need to get the most out of this picture-postcard destination.”

Comprising a diverse portfolio of luxury and upscale properties, the Kennebunkport Resort Collection includes Hidden Pond, one of the finest luxury boutique hotels in the Northeast; the Kennebunkport Inn, centrally located in downtown Kennebunkport; the newly opened Tides Beach Club, Southern Maine's only beachfront luxury boutique hotel; the Cottages at Cabot Cove, featuring individually designed luxury cottages; and Old Fort Inn & Resort, a grand summer estate in nearby Cape Arundel; and, opening this summer, The Grand Hotel, located on Chase Hill in Kennebunk. KRC also owns and manages restaurants and catering venues in the area. For additional information, please visit www.destinationkennebunkport.com.
