Beachcomber Motel

We stayed here for a weekend. I’ve seen mixed reviews online. Here’s what I can tell you. The parking lot is smaller, but I was told in the lobby it’s enough for one car per room. Which was suitable for us. When we were given our room key, it was to a room that had already been assigned to someone. While, everyone involved was understanding about it, this could’ve been a large safety issue. There is an elevator to get to the upper floors, however, it’s very slow and it’s faster tenfold to take the stairs. When we arrived to our room, it was very specious, but it did have a musty smell. Upon further inspection, our A/C unit had black mold. I did my best to clean it up, however, housekeeping should pay better attention to those small details. The A/C kept up with our room fine because we kept the curtains closed and turned the air down to a lower temperature. The layout of the room does put the dining table in front of the A/C unit, so we moved the table to allow the air to disperse throughout the room. The dining room chairs still had food crumbs and looked as though they had not been wiped down. The remainder of the room was clean. The bed and sheets were very crisp and white. The bathroom is small. Only one person can use it at a time, however, this isn’t a huge deal because the mirror and sink are in a separate area from the toilet and shower (bathroom). There wasn’t many toiletries besides toilet paper and hand soap. This was fine except that we were planning to use the kitchenette and there’s no dish soap provided. The location is great because it’s right on the beach. All the staff was friendly and housekeeping checked on us to make sure we had enough towels. There are some amenities besides being beachfront, there’s a TV with xfinity and an outdoor pool. The pool was very clean. Would I stay here again, yes, BUT they need to get the mold under control in these rooms. My allergies were driving me crazy - sneezing, watery eyes, coughing etc. It may be an older building, but it’s been taken care of. With a little TLC it could be better.

The Beachcomber is my hidden gem on 75th Street. It’s so close to the water, I’m setting my chair up in no time. It’s close enough to go from the beach to the room on a beach day.

The hotel has been family owned for decades. They’re nice people, they offer great customer service. The staff are nice and do a great job. It’s monitored by the owners & cameras. It’s quiet, clean, neat, has hot water with good pressure, some kitchen supplies, all rooms have a balcony, the room is a good size, with comfortable chairs, a cafe table and chairs, and a comfortable bed, and new carpet. It has an elevator, and 1 parking space per room. It’s affordable. The pool is well maintained, and there’s plenty of seating It’s close to awesome boutiques, and a short drive to the boardwalk. Need something? Have a question? Go to THEIR website for the number at the front desk to call ahead and ask.

I’ve enjoyed another great stay at the Beachcomber and look forward to many more!

If you want a quiet family friendly and cozy effective beach vacation, this is the place to stay. We stayed on the boardwalk (too loud), a little further away (have to drive or walk a lot). You don't have to search for parking to go to the beach because it's steps away from your room! And the rooms, they're clean and have what you need. Great views and the staff is super friendly. We got free cups a few years ago and still use them at home.

Sleep well my friends. :)
