8/10 Good

"V"

The Coral Sands Motel

10/10 Excellent

"The room was perfectly clean. There was fresh - newish? - tile on the bathroom floor and walls, newish flooring in the room, and newish ceiling tile. The bed wasn’t great but was really fine. The microwave, tv were handy and the 2 mini fridges were evidently just cleaned. The window on the sea side (2 blocks down) opened wide with a good screen and great breeze. Our dog was welcomed by host and fellow guests - most of whom also had dogs. Front office staff — we met two shifts of staff - were very warm and friendly and helpful. However, first impression of front office was a tiny dingy hole - could be spruced up just to make you feel you arrived somewhere that in good shape. Also there were bags of trash at the foot of the guest stairs - would have been nice if they had been in trash cans or bins of some kind. Great that there was parking. Our car just fit but if you have a wider vehicle it wil be a tight squeeze. Overall, terrific value for money, we’d go back."

The Cove

8/10 Good

"Well priced, clean rooms, hot showers, updated bathrooms, decent swimming pool, plentiful parking, and close to shops and boardwalk. It was honestly a lot better than what previous reviews made the place out to be. Family stayed the first night and we stayed through the weekend. 10/10 would come back and recommend to others."

The Surf Club

8/10 Good

"It was fine for one night. But the room was SMALL and we found they had more of the same rooms available for close to $100 less than we paid. It was clean enough. No staff to speak of except for a remote dude talking to you from who knows where. It’s kinda feels like someone bought an old hotel and flipped it to make it look more modern?"
