PB hotel design editorial

The rocky Maine coastline at Kennebunkport, where weather-beaten shingle buildings have stood against Atlantic winters for well over a century, provides the setting for one of New England's most enduring small hotels. White Barn Inn, now part of the Auberge Resorts Collection, grew from a nineteenth-century farmstead into a property of around 37 rooms and suites spread across the main house, cottages, and outbuildings — its shingled exterior and fieldstone chimneys sitting against the tidal estuary with the unhurried confidence of a family compound assembled across generations rather than conceived as a single gesture. The interiors navigate two distinct registers with considerable ease. Guest rooms in the cottage buildings lean into coastal domesticity — painted iron beds, striped ticking benches, stone fireplaces with wrought-iron screens, and coffered ceilings washed in soft slate blue, with botanical wallcoverings that feel sourced from a well-stocked linen cupboard rather than a hotel catalogue. The main house rooms take a warmer, more layered approach: ebonized four-poster beds, camelback sofas in oatmeal wool, buffalo-check draperies layered over bamboo shades, and rush-seated ottomans arranged on sisal. The restaurant, housed in a converted nineteenth-century barn, is the property's architectural centerpiece — original timber framing, hand-hewn post-and-beam construction, and a tall glazed gable end flooding the room with garden light while antique farm implements and wooden pulleys remain fixed overhead, untouched.

White Barn Inn, Auberge Resorts Collection Reviews

"We had a wonderful time at the White Barn Inn. The rooms are spacious and the beds are extremely comfortable. The bathrooms are well equipped. The staff are so friendly and helpful and the food at both White Barn and Little Barn is incredible! After dinner sitting outside around the fire pit was a lovely addition! The hotel is conveniently located near the beach and town where there are restaurants and shopping. The Inn also puts Mercedes cars at your disposal to go anywhere else. Check in and out was a breeze."

"We loved this place so much that we booked our return trip even before we checked out. Impeccable service, yummy food, breakfast was our favorite. The nicest staff, clean rooms, luxurious linens, great location. We loved having our coffee delivered in the morning. Spa is small, but so charming and the therapists are very professional. This is the perfect location to set up camp and explore Kennebunk. It is well worth the price tag. So looking forward to our return and strolling down to the beach. This was our first time staying at an Auberge property and it did not disappoint. Thank you to the exceptional team who made our stay so lovely and memorable. Hardest working young men in the valet area who also carry luggage up the stairs (no elevator at the hotel). I have to say Inns make me nervous because they can be hit or miss, but this property does it all really well, rustic, new england decor and style that is modern, luxurious, and execution done well."

"We had a charmingly imperfect stay, and it is a testament to White Barn, and the reason we will go back, that they recognize imperfection(a structural matter that came on quickly and impacted guests’ access to part of the property) and try and make it right. Staff was great and present, and intentional about doing their all for guests. Restaurant great, service impeccable."

"We had a great time here! The location of the property is perfect. You're not "right downtown", but you're a really quick bike ride or free ride in a hotel Mercedes away. We liked this much better as it felt secluded, but also so close to where you wanted to be. There is an awesome beach not far from here as well... I'd recommend this for couples and friends all day long. Families as well, but realize it's a smaller property (not in a bad way!). A very nice quaint pool as well....! (Service is a 10/10. Really good)"
