Great beach location (period). Music very loud until 2 AM. They don't tell you when you make reservations and take non-refundable payment when you book. Bare-bones rooms. Great place if you want to go the the beach and party. Not good for anything else. more

Stayed in room 214 overlooking parking lot but with a view of the ocean. (saved money that way). Clean with some wear in the bath. Could use some TLC in there. Shower water switched from warm to cold at times and no pressure in sink. Refrig, TV and AC were all new and worked wonderfully. All staff was very courteous... more

Where to begin. My first indication should have been the miserable woman at the desk, but it didn't stop there. Our room smelled of urine the entire time we were there. Our tv in the bedroom did not work, our refrigerator didn't work either. Oh and if you think you will be given a parking spot forget it. The lot... more

We had such a wonderful time at this hotel. I can't understand the bad reviews? Our room was very clean and decorated with typical beach decor. The food was excellent! They even served the large sized shrimp instead of the usual small sized version you get when you order shrimp cocktail. The beach and the pool are right there making... more

It's not good for small kids. It's an easy on and off the beach, but it's for adults drinkin all day and late all nite. Brind ear plugs and you'll be fine if you require that much sleep. It's the beach so if you expect lux accomodations go to the Hamptons and bring about 5K. This spot is great for... more

the rooms were gross. they were old and outdated. i was not expecting white glove service but at least clean for 300.00 a night. the service was bad. spend about 400 one day at the bar, and not one buy back. owner yelled at the kids for eating pizza by the pool. the only good thing was the location but... more

I am SHOCKED by all the negative reviews of the Sea Shell. I attended a wedding at the Sea Shell and it was such an enjoyable experience. The service was fantastic and the food was prepared to perfection. Everyone was treated with the utmost respect; both the bride and groom, as well as all the invited guests. Whatever you needed,... more

I feel bad for people who go on vacation down the "shore" and expect the high class services that they receive in New York. I can't even start to explain how rude and disrespectful people can be. The Sea Shell is not only the coolest bar on the island but we have the most laid back atmoshpere. If you are... more

Words cannot decribe the terrible state of this motel. It is filthy, mismanaged, loud, and the emplyees are inexplicably rude. If this place was run properly, it would be a nice place to stay but instead, it is a place to find drunks and inedible food. This place is a nightclub...bands play loud music until 1am and the bar outside... more
