my new car was vandalized by someone with a nail in the hotel parking, now I have to pay a lot of money to fix it😭

the room was completely clean with an amazing view to the ocean.

Clean washing machines and dryer. Get rid of the ants and a little TLC in the rooms.

The view was beautiful. We stayed with you 3 times. Never had an issue with our stay. But this last visit the rooms need a little upgrading and we saw ants by the kitchen area. Washing machine and dryers were filthy.

The room was good size, with pleasant decor and very clean. Parking on site is very convenient.

Dirty floors. Reported to reception but badly mopped again. Just swept the dirt from left to right!

Location is great!

Ocean side

Was old but taken care of decently.

Use of the bathtub, very slippery. Also, access to getting in and out of pool. A grab bar for the tub would be a good idea.

The beds were comfortable, can't beat the view, staff was great, especially Vince, Richard and Robert! Vince went above and beyond helping with setting up the chair lift at the pool. Also, fixing small problems in our room.

Cleanliness of room and property is very dated

We loved being at the end of the boardwalk.

Everything

I’ve always like staying there.

The walk to the beach is so short – easy to run up to use the restroom, cool down or grab a bite to eat. There are also spickets on your way to rinse the sand off. Also close are at least 3 good places to eat – 2 dinner (Chix on the Beach, Watrman’s) and breakfast (Mahi’s). The last night we wanted to see the rest of the boardwalk and try something new – so we took the trolley to the other end and slowly walked the 3 miles back. I highly recommend as the other end of the boardwalk is a bit different. Not better but offers a different vibe. The staff checked in daily to offer service – linen change, coffee, towels, etc. Each was nicer than the prior one. We didn’t need much – trash dumped and coffee. But this is so much better than Hampton Inn where you have to track someone down to get more TP. We did have one issue with the toilet which was not caused by me (which leaves . . . hubby?). Anyways, I went to the front desk to ask for a plunger and they had to call maintenance – who was knocking on the door less than 5 minutes later. AWESOME service. Again, better than Hampton Inn. Check out was easy. And I’m assuming here I’ll get the $50 hold released as promised. I have no reason to believe they won’t as everything else was as promised or better. I HIGHLY recommend you stay here! Definitely would do it again.

So the reviews were mixed on this hotel with some being very negative. However, with a limited budget and a desire for beach and oceanfront room – it was this hotel or nothing. Last stop on the boardwalk both literally and figuratively. We arrived late Saturday night after booking months earlier through Booking.com. We pulled up to the office and parked by the pool right outside. Check in was super quick and easy – 2 room keys and wi fi password. Luggage cart was available so we loaded up and headed upstairs. Second floor room 226. GOOD ROOM. So far so good – the girl checking me in was very pleasant and helpful. I hoped the room would be OK. Hubby is used to Hampton Inns and often dogs the budget places I book when we go to the beach or NYC. I was in for a treat! The room was lovely. 2 large double beds tastefully accessorized with long pillow and sham. Clean linens on both the bed and in the bathroom. A little breakfast nook by the window with table and chairs, luggage racks, kitchenette stocked with the basics – range, fridge, microwave, coffee maker. Balcony was awesome with 2 chairs and nothing between us and the beach but a railing (no netting or other barrier often placed there). TV worked fine and plenty of outlets. So we were set! Hubby moved the car to the “permanent” spot along the perimeter and in the shade. It would not move for 4 days. There is a slow moving double elevator but we always took the steps. We were towards the end where the steps were, our car was, and the alley to the beach. Just perfect. Day 1 on the beach we learned there are no umbrella or chair rentals near us. No problem as we had 2 chairs, towels, a blanket and small cooler. Hubby hit Sunsations and for $35 we had an umbrella. If you go this route, you will have trouble if there are high winds. Take the time to sink the pole VERY DEEP into the sand. We did not do so and couldn’t use it 1 day and it blew out one day. The walk to the beach is so short.

Constant marijuana smell as you enter the hotel room. Due to other guests smoking in their rooms the constant smell of weed was coming from the vents. We had to open the balcony door to remove the odor. The balcony had a sign that clearly stated smoking isn’t permitted on the balcony but my next door neighbor was smoking cigarettes. The balcony was small but enough space to sit relax and enjoy the view. There was enough space for 2 chairs and a small table. The elevators were very small and difficult to maneuver to luggage cart on to. The elevators didn’t have any ventilation. They were very hot and hard to breathe air on.

Close proximity to boardwalk/beach. Great access to local beach attractions and restaurants.

The staff at the front desk seem to maybe be overwhelmed. Not the least bit hospitable. Actually most seemed annoyed at best. Also on their website, under amenities, it says beach chairs and towels...to our dismay, we had to go purchase some as the front desk staff informed us the website is wrong.

Love the room, the view, and the locatio the housekeeping staff and the maintenance guy were very friendly.

Stayed in July 2023

The safe in my room didn’t work. Not even the maintenance guy was able to fix it with the tools he had

The A/C worked well with no issues, the room was quiet and comfortable, it is within walking distance to watersports, restaurants, etc. check-in was smooth and got a permit to park free on premises.

Could have more luggage carriers. Never seems to be one when you need one.

I’ve been staying at the Schooner Inn for the past 5 years. It’s nothing fancy but it’s clean and staff is friendly and helpful if needed. I love the kitchen and meets our needs for breakfast and lunch. The beach is kid friendly and away from the noisy end of the boardwalk. Much more family oriented.

The no smoking on the balcony and the toilet needed a tune up .

The beach literally is right there 🥰

We loved the location! It was at the end of the boardwalk and was quieter than the northern locations, and we had an awesome ocean view! The housekeeper gave us additional towels as needed.

No food options other then vending machines. Cafe, coffee shop would be nice

Clean and quiet

I didn't like that we had to leave. Every year we have a couple of bad reputation as neighbors. Noisy, loud,drinkers, Marijuana smokers..these people ate bad for business. The management doesn't know what people are doing in their room.

The location, the staff was friendly, polite,welcoming. The cleaning lady did a great job. Let's make it clear: you don't need a 5 stars hotel at the beach. All you need is a clean room, a good bad and a shower. This hotel gives me all of these.

Stayed in July 2023

The hotel is clean I have stayed here before so I came back to this location for that reason. Also it is quiet the hotel is on the far end of the boardwalk less people and traffic. The pool is always kept clean the pool isn't large but I've never had an issue not finding a spot to sit or swim. The rooms are kept clean a little dated but always clean.

Far from the main area boardwalk. though this could be a good thing for some who want that. though i would have enjoyed being closer to the main area.

the room was perfect for what I wanted. pretty view, nice jacuzzi and comfortable

Stayed in June 2023

The hotel seemed to be a bit outdated and the AC seemed to struggle quite a bit

The oceanfront view was awesome and the balcony size was just right! It was great having a mini kitchenette in the room as well, very convenient.

Stayed in July 2023

Air conditioning was not working well at all. Temperature never got below 76 degrees. The first couple days there were very hot and it was not very comfortable.

Good location, good view.
