Top York Beach Hotel Reviews

Ocean Surf at York Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Sick view, staff is nice and helpful"

Union Bluff Hotel & Meeting House

10/10 Excellent

"Love that it was on the beach! Loved even more the ocean view and the room we stayed in. Staff amazing, especially Yolanda. It was perfect weather too."

Anchorage Inn and Resort

8/10 Good

"Easy access to the beach across the street. Especially nice for sunsets and sunrise. There is also a good restaurant across the street on the ocean. Very convenient for lunch or dinner."

Sunrise Motel

8/10 Good

"We just enjoyed being there."

Stones Throw

10/10 Excellent

"We have stayed at Stone's Throw multiple times and we highly recommend it. The room we stayed in was on the smaller side, but big enough with a very comfortable queen bed. The room had a nice bathroom and both the room and bathroom were attractive and clean. We didn't really see any staff as they have contactless check in, however instructions and communication were good. Parking was convenient and near our room. I should also note that there was a small refrigeraror in the room. The long, expansive, sandy beach is right across the road from the hotel which was perfect. Another big plus is that The Stone's Throw restaurant is right next door. There is inside and outside seating. The menu is interesting. We had appetizers and drinks which were both great. Just to note though, the restaurant was closed on Tuesday and Wednesday during the time of our stay."

Long Beach Motor Inn

8/10 Good

"The room was very clean and well kept with plenty of room. Decor was quaint, sort of 1960's. It was well equipped including a stove, microwave, refrigerator and small kitchen table and also included dishes, utensils and pots and pans. There were 2 double beds that we found to be comfortable. We had an assigned parking spot right near our room. The beautiful long sandy beach is just across the road from the motel .There is also a restaurant across the road, a few hundred yards away (we didn't eat there, so can't comment). The hotel owner strongly encouraged use of the shower hoses upon return from the beach. I thought this was a great idea to minimize any tracking of sand into our room. I would definitely recommend this fairly priced, clean motel."

The Cutty Sark Motel

10/10 Excellent

"Staying at Cutty Sark is dreamy. To hear the ocean waves as you fall asleep, who can ask for more. It’s the perfect location, near Nubble light, walking distance to town center and many delicious seafood restaurants nearby. We’ll certainly return."

Sands by the Sea Motel

10/10 Excellent

"Not my first time staying here but the longest time staying here. The staff has always been helpful and friendly, the rooms are clean and organized and the location convenience to everything can’t be beaten. For anyone not familiar it’s not easy getting a spot in the area so it’s a huge advantage and savings"
