This has been our second time back and will continue to make this our "vacation" spot in south Jersey. We stayed in a bright, beachy room on the first floor. It had a separate bedroom with 2 full size beds, small kitchen and nice living room area. The pool was right outside our door and the beach a block away.... More

I stayed at the Beachcomber for the first time last summer. My fiancee's family has been vacationing in Avalon for over twenty years and they have always chose the Beachcomber as their place to stay. The rooms are kept very clean and I believe some of the units are owned as time shares, so each room is decorated differently and... More

Second time staying here. The one bedroom suites are very comfortable for a family of 4. The best thing about this place is the pool. It is esthetically pleasing and nicely heated (unlike other hotel pools which are heated only in name). My only complaint is that for the price, they should provide shampoo in the bathroom and towels at... More

First and foremost, The Beachcomber is located ONE block from the beach! This location is ideal for pretty much any type of visitor. Other hotel/resorts have loud, noisy restaurants and bars attached, splitting up Management's customer base, but here, you've only got rooms. Luckily, you can walk to about 5-6 different restaurants in under 5min. Bars and decent summer nightlife... More

I booked a one bedroom unit with two double beds for myself & my son. The unit was very clean with an extra sink and mirror in the bedroom which came in handy. The kitchen and bathroom looked like they were recently updated. The kitchen had a microwave, cooktop and a small dishwasher which we used. They also provided the... More

Called the beachcomber the day before & was able to get reservations for a studio -1 queen bed & 1 murphy bed. Expected a very small room but was plesantly surprised - plenty of room for 3... More

Made a reservation at this motel in May of this year for an upcoming wedding that I was slated to attend in September. Becasue of unforseen circumstances I needed to cancel my reservation and did this over a month before my scheduled stay. Despite giving the motel ample time, they insisted on charging a $25 cancellation fee. This was never... More

Again let me reiterate that we at the Beachcomber welcome any review whether good or bad. When people are displeased with a property listed here they get to post unfavorable comments, possibly swaying a potential client to stay else where. Again the whole truth is rarely told. This is one of those cases. The truth is Ms. Moneym made a... More

I have been going to the Beachcomber ever since I was a little girl. It always makes me feel like I am coming home. The hotel is in a great location for the beach, only about a block away. The rooms are all equipped with kitchens allowing one to cook their own meals. One of the changes that has happened... More

My family has been going to The Beachcomber for about ten years. This time, we were only able to stay a few days. The Beachcomber staff does whatever it can to accommodate its guests. We arrived 4-5 hours prior to check in, yet they did what they could to free up a room early for us. That allowed us to... More
