As the situation around Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) continues to evolve, we are doing all we can at The Kennebunk Inn to ensure your travel safety. Throughout our 18 years of serving the Kennebunk area, you have trusted us to keep the highest levels of cleanliness, sanitation and food safety (e.g., using Eco-Lab high grade cleaning supplies). Recently we adopted the following extra measures:
- added requirements and increased frequency for disinfecting kitchen surfaces and deep cleaning throughout the day, and
- increased frequency of cleaning public areas, including lobbies, door handles, hand rails, public bathrooms, etc.
We consistently emphasize the importance of the health and well-being of our Kennebunk Inn family and make sure anyone feeling sick stays home. We will continue to follow updates and protocol suggested by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the local Department of Public Health, and the World Health Organization to assure as much as possible the safety of our guests and team members. As this is a fluid situation, we may adjust hours or modify Inn operations in other ways, including temporarily closing if we conclude this is in the interest of the safety of our team and community.
There are PPE stations located by the front desk and on the second floor in the common area.
