Great stay, staff and location!

Reviewed Sep 4, 2023via mobile
Had a great time at Waves in OOB! Upon arrival, we asked to be notified if early check-in was possible, and they did via text message! The staff at the front desk are very helpful and friendly. No house keeping at this time, but we prefer that, and any requests we needed were promptly answered. We stayed in Building C on the first floor with adjoining rooms as we traveled with family. Rooms were clean upon arrival. Bathrooms look dated but are clean and function as needed, plus it was a decent size! One room had a dated small fridge, ours had 2 newer small ones, which was great with kids! We found the beds to be comfortable with clean linens. We loved the porch and spent every night on it! Overall I wouldn't say it's very handicap accessible, so that could be a downside for some.

You have a 30 second walk to the beach, which you can't exactly see from your room, as the pool is right before it. If you stay higher up, you definitely can though! Pool and hot tub area were also nice and clean, as was the whole property. Beach itself was busy but amazing and clean.

The best part is location! You have a 5-7 min walk right to the pier, but your far enough away from nightlife to not be noisy. Plenty to eat all around. Looking at other reviews, it sounds like not all rooms are a like, but we had a great stay and will be coming back.

We’ve stayed at Waves for years and years in building F. We like the proximity to everything and would stay again. No housekeeping but we would call to request towels. Only wish they would update the rooms, especially the bathrooms. Reinvest the money in this hotel it’s in need!

We had a lovely stay except for the TRAIN that runs ALL NIGHT and is located about 20 feet from the room. The hotel website states those rooms are good for families. While I agree the actual rooms have a great set up, people with small children should BEWARE. My 8 year old twins woke up every time the train passed (they blow their horns), at 10pm, 3:30am, 5-something and so on. It really out a damper on our relaxation. The actual hotel and resort is fine. I like that there was a pool though it didn’t seem to be cleaned often (seaweed constantly floating around) and you can’t actually see the ocean while you are in the pool at the pictures imply. Adult swim is 8pm-10pm which was a bummer for us as we would have loved to swim after dinners and amusement park time. Overall we would stay again just NOT in building H (which is across the street and not connected to the actual hotel anyway.)

Room tip: Pay extra for an ocean view-mainly to get as far away from the train as you can.

It was a wonderful week, traveling with my son and his family, including three of our grandchildren. The proximity to the beach as well as the downtown area was perfect. Our rooms were just right, the beds were very comfortable as well.
The staff we encountered were all friendly and seemingly well prepared for their tasks. It's been a most memorable week and we're grateful to the staff here at Waves for assisting in those memories.

The room was nice it had a beach view. It was very nice could’ve use some updates. Very clean. Private balcony. The coffee maker was a strange one. You had to use their coffee it was in a tea bag. So you couldn’t use your own coffee if you wanted to.

The only saving grace was proximity to beach.
Would have left BUT had no where else to go.
Owners obviously don’t reinvest in property. My son and daughter wouldn’t use the shower. Paid 289 a night not worth more than 159 a night.
Front desk was very friendly.

Anyone saying that this place was more than a 3 is definitely a “bot” review.
