Lovely, clean, quiet, well-equipped condo in a beautiful location, with wonderful walking and driving destinations nearby. Great bed!! Amazing view of sunrise over a working but peaceful and quaint cove. Lobster, oysters, and other seafood easy to purchase nearby. 25 mins to Brunswick and lots to explore on the peninsulas.

My family of 4 thoroughly enjoyed our 3 night stay on Bailey Island at your Bailey Island condo. Waking up each morning to the smell of ocean air, a beautiful view of the cove, the sound of seagulls & active lobster fisherman allowed us to experience true New England charm. The condo was clean, well stocked & quiet, we were all sad to leave. If we ever have the chance we would return in a heartbeat!

We had a wonderful stay at this Vrbo in Maine. The property was exactly as pictured—no surprises, just what we hoped for. Everything was clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully prepared for guests. It’s clear the hosts take pride in keeping the space welcoming and true to its listing. We’d happily stay again and recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing, reliable getaway.

A nice condo right in Mackerel Cove. Wake each morning to the lobster bots heading out. A well appointed condo, great for one or two people. Terrific communication from the management team. I would highly recommend.

Lovely, clean, perfect stay on Bailey Island!
This condo was exactly as advertised: beautiful water views, fully appointed, sparkling clean in a gorgeous fishing village. The hosts were super helpful and quick to answer any questions we had. Highlights were hiking Giant’s Stairs, the view at Dolphin Marina, scones at Salt Cod Cafe. We wish we’d done the lobster boat tour! Great day trips to Boothbay Arboretum, Freeport, Brunswick, and Bath. Evenings on the deck were the best way to end the day!

Great place. Clean as a whistle. Fabulous view. I wish the no smoking policy included the decks since we had to close our window and door when neighbor smoked. Kitchen had everything we needed but the knives need a sharpening. 😁

Wonderful relaxing stay
The Bailey Island condo was exactly as pictured on line, but areas that weren’t shown were impressive as well. The Condo was absolutely spotless, comfy bed, and had everything needed. Everything was organized and uncluttered so there was plenty of room for our stuff. The view was fantastic. We spent every morning and evening on the deck watching the lobstermen do what they do ☺️.
Glens lobster was a short walk down the road, they pulled the lobsters from the water when u buy them. I would give the condo and the area more than 5 stars. Highly recommend this beautiful place!

Charming Condo with Beautiful Views and Perfect Location!
Highly recommend! We absolutely loved our stay at this condo! It was beautifully styled, with lots of charming touches that made it feel like a cozy home away from home. We were provided with plenty of towels, which was a nice bonus, and the deck and balcony offered stunning views at any time of day—truly a highlight of our stay.
The location was ideal: there were multiple great places to eat nearby, offering a variety of dining options, but the area itself was peaceful and quiet, perfect for relaxation. There were also plenty of activities to enjoy, but we never felt overwhelmed by crowds or noise.
The hosts were incredibly kind, responsive, and easy to communicate with. Their attention to detail and care really stood out.
Overall, we had a wonderful time and would highly recommend this condo to any couple looking to experience the serenity and beauty of the area.

We visited from October 7 and left October 10. Our unit was very clean and the view was amazing. Everything was nice except we had no heat and customer service is lacking. We tried for three weeks before our trip to get in touch with customer service about our credit card and never got a call back or any response. While visiting we contacted the owners and never received a text back. Other than lack of customer service this place is amazing.

This is a charming condo with peaceful views of Mackeral Cove. The kitchen is well appointed. The condo had everything we would need just as if we were at home. We booked last minute but Mainestay was so easy and friendly to work with. One day into our stay and I was already asking when booking for next fall opened. Lovely place!

Reviewer Comments:
This is a comfortable and attractive condo for one or two people. It is relatively new so all furnishings etc are it great condition. I stayed alone and really used it more as a hotel room than a cottage so can’t really comment much regarding the cooking facilities.. The view is lovely and mostly very quiet. I loved hearing the fishing boats coming and going and coffee on the balcony in the early morning was one of my favourite experiences at the condo. It is located in a favourite part of the area but is over an hour to my favourite beaches, Popham and Reid State Park. Despite that I would book the condo again and I would definitely prefer staying at the condo to staying at a hotel.

This was a very nice stay. I am wondering how you can legally have only one means of egress, however. It was very nice for a brief stay but not an ideal set up for people with any leg issues. The one bathroom is up a full flight of stairs. I knew that going into the rental, though.
