“Great hotel but needs updating”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 December 2011 via mobile

This was my first time staying here and I have some mixed views. The staff was very friendly and helpful, the location and price is perfect, but the rooms are a bit outdated. The bathrooms were all recently updates, which look amazing, however the room itself felt very damp and smelt a little musky. The furniture is outdated along with the linens. I had a king bed bedroom, and the king bed was two beds pushed together which I thought was odd. One of our walls from the ceiling was randomly dripping water, which made me wonder if that is why it always felt damp inside the building. One of my biggest concerns is ever finding bugs in the room, but I am pleased to say there were none. Overall it wasn't a bad hotel, they just need to fix it up and update it a bit. Once they do that, it will be an even greater place to stay. The location is perfect, along with the outside amentities they have to offer. Just update the rooma with grand new furniture, rugs, and linens and fix any leaks and it will be perfect. As I mentioned before the bathrooms are beautiful, they just need to apply the same craftmanship to the rest of the room and their golden.

“I love this place”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 October 2011

We've stayed at Windjammer Inn for two years in a row and absolutely love this place. It is clean, quite, the beach is amazing.
In the room that we had the decor was very dated, the linnens very shabby (but clean) and there was no coffee maker which was rather surprising, I've never stayed in a place that did not offer a coffee maker. The rooms do offer a microwave oven and a small refrigerator. Each time we stayed there we had 3rd floor rooms so the view was amazing. They offer complimentary umbrellas and beach chairs and has a great heated pool.
I will go back for sure, I love this place!

Room Tip: Ground level rooms don't have ocean view. Ask for an upper level room if you want to be able to...

“Bring your own beach chairs, don't believe website”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 September 2011 via mobile

After staying at the Sheraton and Clam digger, the Windjammer really is the best of the hotels in Atlantic Beach. It's modern, clean and a great value. My only complaint, they advertise that there is complimentary beach service with chairs and umbrellas. This is on the website and in the room information. Based on these statements we did not bring our own. We realized that they only have about five or four umbrellas and chair sets and if your not out on the beach first thing, you will not get them all day. Therefore, we had to go buy all news ones when we were down here. In an effort of honesty, they need to change the website to say, complimentary beach service, VERY LIMITED availability.

“Well Done and Charming.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 August 2011

person found this review helpful

The Windjammer Inn has a lot of pluses. Since the last time we were there (about 8 years ago), they have renovated the bathrooms and the pool area. Both are wonderful.

The bathroom, with granite counters and a multi-head shower, was genuinely tasteful. The pool area had European-style covered cabanas complete with beds, a wading pool with fountains, a swimming pool and various decks. It's lit up at night with rope lights, which looks fabulous.

We have made a tradition of finding an oceanfront jacuzzi room for our anniversary every year, inspired by our first stay at the Windjammer. After trying several other beaches and hotels, The Windjammer may be the best for location, style and value. Loved our view up the beach, the big jacuzzi and the free first come/first served umbrellas and beach chairs.

We'll be back, quite possibly every year in August!

Room Tip: A higher room may have a better ocean view, but all rooms are oceanfront.
