All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travelers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
The amenities were great. For an older building it is well maintained. The staff member that checked us in was friendly and helpful. We would stay again!
The rooms were spacious and the staff was very nice. It’s right in the beach and has access to a few pools which was nice. All of the attractions and activities in the area are within walking distance.

We enjoyed our time there. Great location.
However, resort is out dated. Rooms are old, bathrooms as well.
The only negative was that the WiFi was very spotty and we couldn't use our Roku with the tv. The hotel itself was very clean and spacious. The staff were wonderful, and the amenities were wonderful as well.
We LOVED staying at waves. Building D beach side was basically ON the beach, steps from the pool, and only an 8 min walk downtown. Absolutely perfect family vacation. The room was not that nice, but it’s a beach motel and we weren’t in it much!

Great staff and location. Little cramped in bathroom and getting ready.
Great location right on the beach. Perfect for family trip close by to the Pier and all the restaurants and shops. Resort was great some rooms could use a bit of updating but ours was very good. Would definitely recommend and would absolutely return again.
Rustic room, felt like a true vacation.. on the beach and away from chaos .. lots to do 5-10min away by foot.. you get access to 4 different pools with one including a hot tub. parking right next to your room. balcony came with my king room, also another plus.. can watch sunset from your room. If you love the beach, this is a top spot for price i paid
Loved everything about our stay! Location was perfect. Use of multiple pools: fantastic to find the perfect vibe! Clean rooms, helpful and friendly staff! 10/10, can’t wait to stay again!
The room was clean we had a balcony and were on the train side. The pool was not close by so we didn’t utilize it and it was always crowded when we checked.
I liked the location and parking and beach access. Hotel outdated. Pool was green with floating cigarettes not unkept.

Train on the back door, photos were deceiving about being on the beach. We were across the street in building H with a train complete with the whistle buzzing by, which seemed to be every hour even throughout the night short walk to the beach, which is beautiful.

The room was pretty outdated. Our room was not as expected and for the price, we were disappointed. We had a few issues with the room. The staff was extremely friendly though. The beach was very nice as well.
Great location and the staff is very helpful. My only complaint is that the parking for building e is not good, difficult to find a space. I did not have this problem last year when I stayed in building h . Otherwise everything was great.
The location is great…a bit of a walk to the pier and rides but totally doable! The beds were comfy, linens were great…my only gripe would be the floors. Clearly they hadn’t been mopped and they had sand on them when we walked in. I did discover a broom in the closet the morning we left so if I had known that I could’ve swept them and it would’ve been great.
We had oceanfront rooms, but could not see the beach because there was Cottages in front of it…however we were very close to beach!!! the path to the beach was right in front of our room! We got there at 1:30 and were able to check in even though the check-in was at 3:00. The check-in receptionist was very sweet and the process was quick. We asked for a microwave and got them right away. Our room was clean. The beds were very comfortable. We had no complaints.!! I highly recommend staying here if you are planning to visit Old Orchard Beach

Great location. Amazing views. Wonderful staff. Rooms need maintenance and upkeep. Sliding screen door broken, shower doors didn’t roll correctly, none of ports worked in charging device. Didn’t have separate seating area as advertised. Not very good for the price.
never really saw staff
room was gross. layers of dust on the
lamp shades. dirty towels hung on rack for us to use.
definitely expected much more for lthe cost thats for sure!
