I want to apologize about our parking. We are building a large parking structure that should be completed within the next couple of months. We try our best by offering Free Valet and 24/7 Shuttle service to our satellite lots. Thank you for your feedback and we hope to make the next time you visit a more pleasurable experience.

Disappointing

Tired hotel with a cute man made beach. Room had a moist mildew feeling. Noisy neighbors, not a pleasant experience. Will not go back.

Disappointing

Room not ready at 3:00 check in. We were told that because we booked through Travelocity, we were put in least expensive room, which was a handicapped room with water view mostly blocked by a/c. Since our room wasn't ready at 3, they "upgraded" to a room with better view- which was what it should've been to begin with. But without balcony as it should've also had. Their "walkable beach" is actually a large sandbox. No access to water, no beach to walk along. Beautifully decorated. Most employees pleasant. One desk person we dealt with a few times --neither friendly not helpful. Stayed three nights. Second day, no housekeeping came . Returned to room at night with nothing cleaned, no new towels etc. walkable beach has seating but no umbrellas -little to no shade depending on time of day, and they didn't allow us to use our own. Local nearby beach was small fenced in area with a cost of $60 for family of four for the day. Was disappointing beach.

Perfect Ocean Getaway

Pros: The Spa
Location: Lots of restaurants around!
I am so satisfied with this hotel, it's the perfect getaway by the sea. The Spa in the hotel was the highlight of my little winter adventure. I highly recommend this location!

Chesapeake Beach Resort and Spa

Pros: The rooms, free valet parking, beautiful scenery of the ocean, live music on the sand!!
Cons: customer service (front desk)
Location: Everything was nice. Broad walk, beach, a lot of restaurants, water park, casino etc!!
Hotel was nice. Staff was overwhelmed so we didn't get the best of service. Wasn't greeted with a smile at all. The morning of our check out I had to call the front desk several times until someone answered to get a no to my question which was a little hurtful. We needed a late check out but is very understanding that we couldn't. It's just the way she spoke to me was my problem. Now will I stay here again most likely yes I just hope we'll get better service next time!!
