The hotel isn’t a boutique hotel at all. It’s a worn out motel.

Excellent beach hotel

The location is awesome! It’s right across from the beach and has great views. I loved the open guest patio looking right out on the water. My dog loved it and she slept so well in the room. The bed was comfy and the room was spacious. Overall excellent experience!

Hotel is very dated for the price. You are paying for proximity to Boardwalk, beach, and shops. The hotel could use an entire property makeover. Especially with a brand new competitor next door for similar price. This is our first stay and will not return. We will stay next door at the new hotel.

Just awesome!

Queen room=beautiful view and comfortable bed. Impressive bathroom shower and shared patio deck. The staff at the Casablanca are helpful and kind. Walking distance to just about everything….and again…the beach view is amazing! You can hear the ocean waves in your sleep. We will be back!

Quick Easy Family Beach Getaway

The beds were very comfortable and the location is perfect. There are other more expensive options, but we felt that the value was spot-on and the kids LOVED it, especially the balcony over the street that looks over the bay and wharf. The restaurant across the street, Iconic, serves great food and a large selection...their cafe is perfect for an early morning departure for your adventures as well.

This hotel has an amazing location. Outside of that it is not a nice place. It is terribly rundown, extremely loud and no frills. Very overpriced for what you get, which is nothing more than a rundown motel.
