convenient location, rooms are a bit run down but not unacceptable, staff was helpful in dealing with a few issues we had but overall the place just needs some tlc
Since we arrived the lady at the desk was really friendly and helpful, the room was clean and organized, the food at the Malias cafe was good!!
We enjoyed our stay in the hotel Spinnaker.
Not a drop of sand in the room…. Idk how they did it. The room was fantastic! Beautiful views, watched the sunrise from the balcony! Plenty of room for me my spouse and 3 of the kiddos! Definitely will stay here again!
Thanks for the memories!
Bathtub was really slow at draining. Bathroom could have been cleaner didn’t like the bathroom being right behind the door. Beds were ok, the location was good and the staff was helpful.

The location is the best thing about this place. It’s right in the beach next to the boardwalk. It also comes with parking but we were also charged $20 hotel fee. The bathroom also had a clog in the shower. The staff was nice and helpful.
Great stay, the staff were super helpful and the overall experience was great ! We rode bikes to the beach and had breakfast at the restaurant on site. Will return
For a structure that has existed for many years, the buildings appeared to be in decent condition. Safe condition. I feel they have been maintained well.
The room resembled days many years ago. The room was comfortable and provided the relaxation expected.
The staff was super! Very kind, respectful, helpful, and considerate.
Only reason I didn't rate better was they really need to replace the pull out sleeper couch in room 317, sorry but it sucked!! Very hard to pull out,took 2 peoples and the mattress was ridiculously old. Nothing left to it. Good thing that kids can sleep just about anywhere. Other than that all was fine, a little dirt here and there but wasn't bad. NO BUGS.
