Very Good

I liked that when you walked in there was a living room and a separate bedroom in the back. Also a big counter with stools and a kitchenette with a good size refrigerator
Enjoyed the location to the board walk, beach and public access. The room was great for us with having separate pull out couch. There is no view from these rooms. You are right at amusement park which goes till midnight. The parking was great because under cover. I would stay again since beach is the highlight
We had a great time exploring the boardwalk.. The motel was less than a block from the beach. On site parking for my larger truck was adequate. If we return we would make use of the kitchenette.
We enjoyed our stay - staff was warm and welcoming and very accommodating. The rooms were recently renovated - combination of retro and new. The kitchenette was functional and supplied well.

Not terrible , but not great ! Close to the amusement rides (doesn't shut down till 11pm)
Room was clean. ( the couch bed had no bedding in the room )
Trying to get ahold of staff is hard . Lobby is in a different hotel up the block . They do not promptly answer the phone ( ok they could be busy ) take the walk up the block and no one there .
Asking for xtra towels took 3.5 hours .
Other then that for the price , closeness to the beach and boardwalk it was a very good place
Parking is tight but available . they supply beach tags. Also Expedia says check out is 11 the hotel says 10.
WiFi is not good inside the rooms .
Keep all this in mind . But heck it's the shore !
very clean, spacious perfect for a family of 4! roller coaster was a bit loud at times and check in is only right across the street. overall so worth the price point and can’t beat the location!! steps away from the main boardwalk! would stay again!
For being off season, the room was well prepared and check-in was easily handled contactless. Location is great being 1/2 block off boardwalk. King bed was comfortable. Bathroom was clean but outdated with a strangely
low toilet. Would recommend and stay there again.
Perfectly clean, ideal location. Definitely loud b/c of the rollercoaster right outside, but knew that going in so no surprises or disappointments! Would def go back!
Very short walking distance to boardwalk and beach very clean rooms amusement park across the street very nice place to stay with kids I would not recommend for older adults who don’t like noice all day till midnight had a great stay will be staying again at this motel next summer with my grandkids

We enjoyed our weekend stay at the Wild Dunes Inn. The room was a bit more outdated than I thought, but still clean. Shower pressure and temp was perfect and the staff was friendly as well as efficient in getting extra supplies when needed. The kitchen had some things for cooking but not any silverware or paper towels, and we ran out of tissues very quickly. Other than that, it was a super close walk to the boardwalk and some of our favorite food places (3 Brothers Pizza and Kohrs!)
Good location near the boardwalk. Clean. They have a unique door lock system that doesn't have a physical key. It uses a unique pin code but it doesn't automatically lock when you leave the room. You have to press the door lock icon before leaving the room.
Very good overall.
My family and I really enjoyed our stay at Wild Dunes so much that we will definitely be coming back next year and years to come. I really loved how equipped the kitchenette was. Especially having a coffee machine, since I am a coffee drinker was amazing rather than having to spend money every morning on coffee. It’s the little things that make me feel more at home and this hotel definitely made me feel at home. From the pool, spacious bedroom, many drawers for clothing, etc etc I really enjoyed my stay. Also, being so close to the boardwalk and beach that was a huge plus!
We rented 3 rooms. The staff was very accommodating when I asked for adjoining rooms. They also were very quick to respond to our request for additional pillows and towels. We had 4 people in 1 room, 3 in another and 2 in another. The rooms were big enough for us to be together, cozily, for meals and just hanging out. The kitchen had all we needed for our stay, and everything was newer and in good shape. The rooms were very clean, furniture looked newer and was in great shape. Same for the bathroom. The beds and pillows were very comfortable. Three adults-sized kids slept on the pull-out couches, and I heard no complaints about them being uncomfortable. They were very comfortable to sit on as well. It was so great to be so close to the boardwalk and beach. I will definitely stay here again.
The only problem with this hotel is the furniture. The king size bed,couch and chair were very hard and uncomfortable. Other then that excellent location and service
Had 3 rooms, 2 very clean 1 could have been better. Layout excellent convenient location. Across street from amusements but wasn’t a major problem. Parking easy under building. Building very secure. Main office and pool across street not an issue. Has pot and pan for stove top no oven only microwave few utensils; coffee pot and toaster; didn’t see dishes. TVs in outer room and bedroom very small. Decent channels has dvd player. Bathroom nice tub/shower. Prob needs new mattresses in bedroom of all 3 rooms we had. Was off-season but I would stay again.

Disliked: Staff & service
In general, the facilities were acceptable. However, for a first-timer I was confused to find the doors locked and no staff at the building. After reading the posted signs, I learned the office was two blocks away. Surprise! Emergency exits at opposite ends of the building were not clearly marked. We expected housekeeping every 2nd day of our stay. During our 4-day stay, housekeeping never showed. I will not return.
