Wells Beach is affordable. Biddeford, Old Orchard Beach and parts west of Portland are affordable . Also check out Portsmouth, N.H. New Hampshire also has nice places, not too expensive.

In Kittery, don't forget to stop at Bob's Seafood. Ogonquit also has a good lobster pound, but more expensive. Ogonqui, take the trolly in and be sure to walk the Marginal Way. There is a new and beautiful view at every turn in the walkway.
In Portland and Bar Harbor, be sure to take one of the evening harbor tours.

Real estate -- about 10 miles from the coast is where the winter snow gets kind of heavy.
