I am a somewhat frequent and choosy Airbnb traveler, and the Whalehouse ranks at the top of my favorite places. The space is clean, spacious, tasteful and quite calming. The view on the wraparound deck is spectacular. The kitchen is well equipped, and the beds are super comfy. Plus, there were so many unexpected and thoughtful touches. Communication and arrival and departing protocol was super friendly and easy. The neighborhood is charming and near to lots of great coffee shops, restaurants, etc. I was in Portland to visit my daughter and her family, and they also really enjoyed music, meals, and a fire in the fireplace! I hope to return to the Whalehouse when I am back in Portland visiting family.
