I was very surprised to get a key when we checked in – a key, not a keycard like almost every other hotel I’ve stayed at in the last 20 years. This was particularly problematic, because the lock was really tricky; we struggled with it every time we needed to get in. When we first checked in, there was sand... more

Stayed here for a weekend during the height of the 2009 summer season (almost $300 per night after taxes). Was well worth it. Decent sized room on the top floor with a balcony facing the ocean. The place was very clean and offered a great setting for couples and families. The pool is large, very clean and heated. The beach... more

We spent three nights here and would go back again. The beach is wonderful and location is near several restaurants. However, many were closed by end of September - beware!

The staff was wonderful but the hotel needs updating. The beds and some furniture are old and uncomfortable. The room could have been better for the price we paid. more

When we discovered Royal Anchor we had no idea that we would return every year! We had tried two vacations at other motels before we found ROR and found there is no comparison! Clean,safe and friendly service. Each time we go we try to find new adventures. The historic signifigance of the area is wonderful. From the ROR you can... more

Claire and Mark are the most wonderful hosts @ The Royal Anchor Resort. This was our 25th year staying @ The Royal Anchor. We started going to R A @ OOB when our boys were toddlers. We have been back every year since. The rooms are always cleaned to perfection. Along with the pool and the grounds. The maids are... more
