The view from our balcony was beautiful! We watched whales and dolphins swim by. Hotel is close to restaurants and town and very walkable. Would definitely stay again
This was an excellent spot that did not charge for parking. Like we should ever be charged for parking when we’re paying $400 a night or more to stay in a beachfront hotel.
Super location really nice staff
The room was cute and comfortable with a small kitchenette. It was clean and comfy and beautiful views of the ocean. The bathroom was very small. One comment I do have is that the room had a coffee maker and filters but no coffee packets, creamers, sugar etc so we had to go out and purchase. Location into town very convenient.

Overall good stay in great location. View is beautiful but there could be more umbrellas by the pool area. It was hard to find shade. Also loud groups coming in very late yelling and slamming doors woke us up. Leans more towards younger crowd than families but still was a good stay given our last minute options.
Too much furniture is packed into a dirty room. The 2nd double bed actually blocks the sliding door. I do not recommend. Very disappointing. The ocean view was spectacular. That's the only good part.
The room was very nice. All re-done and the view was perfect of the ocean. The staff was so accommodating. I was hoping to get in a bit before check-in and the front desk actually called me to let me know my room was ready. Definitely will be staying again.
Nice view of the beach. Air conditioner was very noisy and old. It needs to be replaced. I mentioned that to the front seat and they agreed. So we slept with the sliding door to the balcony wide open and listened to the waves all night. Luckily the weather was nice. If it was hot out the A/C would have been unpleasant. We were suprised that there was no coffee maker in the room. I’ve never stayed in a hotel without a coffee maker especially for the price we paid. Location was good. Walk into town.
Overall, our stay was good and the hotel has a fantastic location. The front desk staff was super friendly and very accommodating, which made check-in and the overall experience pleasant. The keypad entry was a nice touch, as you didn’t have to worry about always having a key on hand.
That said, for the price paid, we expected the room itself to be a little nicer. The sliding screen door barely closed and the glass sliding door didn’t lock at all, which was concerning. The bathroom sink wouldn’t drain properly and the large 5-gallon pail under the AC unit on the balcony was not very appealing.
With some updates and attention to maintenance, this place could easily match the quality of its great staff and location.
There are so many things to love about Ocean Surf Resort. We had a spectacular view ocean front, only yards from the water, we heard the pounding waves all night, we could walk everywhere, including to Harvest on Fort Pond for a delicious dinner, and our accommodations were excellent.

GREAT location - beachfront! Comfortable bed. Older beach hotel. Bathroom was filthy - I did let the front desk manager know. I did see this was noted on a prior online review, so apparently this is an ongoing concern.

The location is perfect! You can walk right into town. The rooms are decent, but the beds and pillows are not very comfortable. I do wish there was better locks and maybe a small safe in the room.

Liked: Staff & service
The location, sundeck, pool & ocean front property were great but a little run down. The rooms were small. The Linens & beds were clean & comfortable, but furnishings & bathrooms felt a little run down. That said, I would still return because the staff were attentive & location was amazing.

Friendly motel on the beach
This is fairly basic motel. Very expensive for what you get but then that’s all of Montauk in the summer. The main upside is that it’s right in the beach. There’s a simple
but nice pool area too. There’s a nice cafe at the Marrin within walking distance as well as a super market. Some nice restaurants al walking distance. Staff were nice and helpful. Main down side for us was old loud a/c unit that sometimes refused to turn off. Also the room is small so the fridge is right next to your head. When it turns on and off it makes a noise. We had some noisy neighbors but that’s always a risk. Overall I’d say we would go back (and suck up the Montauk costs)
