Welcome to Serenity By The Sea -
⚠️ IMPORTANT NOTICE:
In accordance with Ocean House Condominium Association rules, this property is available only for stays of 30 nights or longer.
Shorter rental requests will not be approved — no exceptions.
Nestled within the iconic Ocean House directly across from York’s beloved Short Sands Beach, Serenity by the Sea is a stunning two-level condominium that perfectly blends coastal charm with modern comfort. Perched on the fourth floor, this residence offers unparalleled views of the Atlantic Ocean, creating an idyllic backdrop for an extended seaside escape. With a minimum stay requirement of thirty days, it’s designed for guests seeking to truly unwind and immerse themselves in oceanfront living.
The first level welcomes you with an updated, fully equipped kitchen that flows into an open dining area with vaulted ceilings and a spacious living room. Here, large windows frame breathtaking views of the ocean, while a pull-out sofa provides extra space for overnight guests. From the dining area, step through sliding doors onto the ocean-side covered porch — a perfect spot to sip your morning coffee, listen to the waves, and feel the salt air drift in. This floor also includes a comfortable guest bedroom, a full bath, laundry facilities, and generous storage closets for added convenience.
Upstairs, the loft-style second level offers flexibility and privacy, featuring a cozy sitting room that doubles as an additional bedroom with a trundle bed and twin underneath. The primary suite is thoughtfully designed for comfort, offering a double bed with a twin bunk above and two additional twin beds. A walk-in closet provides ample storage, while the en suite bath boasts double granite vanities, a luxurious soaking tub, and a beautifully tiled shower that invites relaxation after a day by the sea.
Guests enjoy access to all the premium amenities of Ocean House, including two parking spaces (one covered), secured entry, and elevator service. The property also offers a renovated indoor pool and hot tub, a sunny ocean-view deck, a newly updated fitness center with locker rooms, and a grand community room with soaring three-story windows overlooking the beach.
Just steps away, you’ll find everything York Beach has to offer — from the sandy shores of Short Sands and the lively boardwalk to quaint shops, family-friendly attractions, and some of the area’s best restaurants. Summer evenings bring live music at the historic Ellis Park bandstand, creating the perfect atmosphere for a leisurely coastal lifestyle.
Serenity by the Sea comfortably accommodates six to eight guests, with a queen adjustable bed in the first-floor bedroom, a double bed with a twin bunk and two additional twins upstairs, a trundle in the loft, and a pull-out sofa in the living room. The home includes central air conditioning, a washer and dryer, linens and towels, and the option of Salt & Shine Concierge services to enhance your stay.
Whether you’re planning a long summer retreat or a peaceful off-season getaway, Serenity by the Sea offers the perfect balance of luxury, comfort, and convenience — all against the stunning backdrop of the Maine coast.
Reminder: Due to condo association rules, this property is available only for stays of 30 nights or more. Requests for shorter stays cannot be accommodated.
