Don’t you love it when you crawl into bed that first night of vacation and the bedding, pillows, and mattress are super comfortable? It’s the best feeling in the world when you have a great bed to relax in while on vacation. We wanted our guests to experience that same relaxing feeling at The Lion’s Maine Retreat.
The 80s Motel vibe with busy prints on a scratchy bedspread is the opposite of what any present day traveler wants on a bed. We opted for soft, light linens in our vacation home. We had a Puffy mattress in our Florida home we loved so much we purchased the same mattress for the vacation home. The bed frame is also from Puffy and supports up to 1000 lbs. Nobody wants a bed to break on them while on vacation! Even our guest beds are a medium firm mattress with a super strong frame. Now, I know everyone has specific preferences regarding pillows so we’ve made it a point to have some different options so the guest can choose what suits them. With a comfy bed we also made sure our window coverings made the rooms dark enough. The sun rises really early in Maine in the summertime! And lastly, we made sure to have ceiling fans in the bedrooms for those who like air circulation and we added sound machines so you don’t have to travel with one. I’ve linked some of the items we purchased below.
