We’ve rented various places for the last 5 years in York, Maine and this condo was our favorite place! Clean and quiet in a great central location and responsive hosts. We would definitely rent again in the future.

Keri, we're so happy you loved Seaside Scene! We love the sheer quantity of things to do in and around the Atlantic House, and it's so amazing to hear that we could provide you a new favorite vacation spot!! We'd love to have you again next year!!
Convenient location and parking. Made it very easy to eat, shop, and go to the beach and zoo with two children under 6yrs old. Quiet despite location. Was difficult to find the condo itself without signage in the building/elevator.

We love the Atlantic House, and we're so glad you did too! It's such a lovely destination in downtown York to enjoy your Maine-cation!!
We enjoyed our stay at the Atlantic condo! I stayed with my two parents and we found the unit to be incredibly clean, spacious and equipped with everything you’d need. They spared no expense with the renovations, using top of the line materials, including the super comfortable beds. Check in and out was super easy. You could park your car and not use it once if you wanted to based on how centrally located it was to everything!

The property was lovely. It was a little hard to figure out how to access it.
Everything was clean and prepared for our arrival.
TV service was not great, streaming only.

Smaller than expected, kitchen wasn't easy to maneuver around in and not very well equipped. The management were quick to respond to ?s and issues we had. Very confusing on how to enter the building and get to the unit. The directory inside listed the Wi-Fi incorrectly and we did not have live TV
