I would most definitely stay here again. Had a room on the second floor and was able to watch the fireworks from the porch. One block from the beach and all the shops and band shell. And reasonable prices!!

The rooms were clean enough. The location is absolutely perfect. We were able to leave the car there until 11 which was very nice. It's perfect for a weekend gateway, especially if you're out at the beach.

This is our fourth stay at Mainsail. It is the only place we stay when we go to Hampton Beach. It is quiet, mostly families. Very nice, clean pool. The staff is fantastic. They have really nice little cabins for larger families to stay in. But best of all, they are perfectly located to be close to the action but far enough away where you don’t hear a lot of noise. Right across the street you can buy a delicious iced coffee at Flamingos coffee bar or you can get a cheap bear and awesome Mexican food at the Corner Cantina.

The room wasn't the cleanest, however, LOCATION - LOCATION - LOCATION! The location couldn't be better. The price was so reasonable to be so centrally located and close to the beach. We had 3 adults to the room and it didn't feel cramped. It's low frills, family friendly and a pool within steps. Everything else is in walking distance, I only got in my car once during our stay because we could walk to everything else. The AC worked great, the beds were comfortable enough and I would definitely come again. Staff was friendly and immediately provided extra towels and toilet paper when asked.

The room was clean and pool area. Excellent close up to the beach but not noisy. No office staff later in the evening available and would have liked a couple cups or paper plates and dish towels for the kitchen that area.

The place was surprisingly upgraded. Everything was clean and new. The only complaint was that the manager had her car parked in our spot and instead of moving it, she had our car parked at the other end of the facility. But other than that, everything was amazing and we would definitely go back.

Our room was surprisingly bright and airy, very comfortable and well laid out. The location is excellent, one block from the beach and restaurants and shopping. Although our interaction with the staff was minimal, if we had questions or a need they were very attentive. My great-grandson absolutely loved the pool, and didn't want to get out at all each day. Parking was a little wonky, but we worked it out in the end. It is our first-time staying at the Mainsail, and we will definitely be back for a longer stay next summer.

The location was fantastic! The owner was lovely and super accommodating. The rooms were clean and adorable. My only complaint was that the beds were uncomfortable. The pillows were not great and bedding was thin and a little scratchy. Regardless, I still recommend this property because it’s in a great location and the service is excellent.
