Staff was absolutely wonderful! Room was clean and entire hotel seemed clean. They provided complementary chairs for the beach which was a pleasant surprise. You can tell the property is older, but it is great especially for the cost.

The room was nice and refreshing with a wonderful view from the balcony. I was surprised to be at the Spinnaker because the distance from the hotel was close to the boardwalk and the entrance to the beach. Titiana was helpful too. She was polite and she checked on our needs. The Spinnaker was a great place to stay for our mini vacation.

The location is the best thing about this place. It’s right in the beach next to the boardwalk. It also comes with parking but we were also charged $20 hotel fee. The bathroom also had a clog in the shower. The staff was nice and helpful.
Verified review

This room was tolerable for a night but we were not given hand towels or washcloths. The coffee pot was dirty. The room was right by the road on the first floor so we didn’t get to enjoy the balcony. But we loved Melia’s Cafe!

Overall the stay was very good. The room provided what we needed which isn’t much since we are at the beach for the beach. Only draw back was when we checked in there were no bath towels so the next morning I put the request service on our but when we came back from the beach midafternoon we still had no towels I called the desk they said they would send some right away. We waited 30 minutes I then went to the office and they sent someone to get them right away when they were brought they were still warm from the dryer. On our last full day I put the service request on the door for clean towels again but never received them.

For a structure that has existed for many years, the buildings appeared to be in decent condition. Safe condition. I feel they have been maintained well. The room resembled days many years ago. The room was comfortable and provided the relaxation expected. The staff was super! Very kind, respectful, helpful, and considerate.

Only reason I didn't rate better was they really need to replace the pull out sleeper couch in room 317, sorry but it sucked!! Very hard to pull out,took 2 peoples and the mattress was ridiculously old. Nothing left to it. Good thing that kids can sleep just about anywhere. Other than that all was fine, a little dirt here and there but wasn't bad. NO BUGS.
