Dunes on the Waterfront x noissue

The idea of a perfect vacation is different for everybody. Some people like a jam-packed schedule that fits three to four (or even more) activities per day, ensuring that they get to experience everything that a place can offer. While others enjoy a more laidback trip where slowing down and resting are top priority. If you’re among those who prefer the latter, this one’s for you.

Meet Dunes on the Waterfront, a picturesque cottage resort located in Ogunquit, Maine. With their charming cottages lined with vibrant, blooming flora, every corner framed with the calm and peace that nature brings, and a beautiful nearby sight of the sea, you’d think a fairytale had magically come to life.

Other than the idyllic scenery that The Dunes offers, they also have other amenities you can choose to spend your stay. One of those is their cafe, The Lodge, where you can sit by the window, take in the stunning view of The Dunes before you, and enjoy their specialty coffee drinks served in noissue eco-cups. Read on to learn more about Dunes on the Waterfront!

We wanted our Dunes café packaging to feel like an extension of the guest experience - something that elevates a morning coffee run, sparks joy, and encourages guests to share a photo and tag us of course!

What made noissue a good fit for your packaging?

noissue gave us the freedom to fully customize our cups in a way that felt personal and distinctive - by adding "Everything is great at The Dunes" to the U-shaped cup went far beyond simply placing a logo. Their product variety and quality allowed us to create something that feels unique, elevated, and in line with the character of The Dunes.

Where are you finding inspiration for Dunes on the Waterfront and in life at the moment?

We’re finding inspiration in the simple joys - like families collecting shells at low tide on their way to the beach, or couples enjoying a glass of wine on their screened-in porch. These moments remind us of the beauty of slowing down.

At The Dunes, we hope to offer a setting where people can embrace those little joys and feel more connected to nature, to each other, and to themselves.
