Needs Better Communication
There is a large construction project going on across the street that was very noisy. The hotel staff offered no information as to parking fees, location of ice machines, how to use the TV or thermostat, or local venues to visit. The receptionist on checking was rude. The room was very clean and comfortable and maid service was very good

Perfect location and amazing staff
My six-year-old daughter and I stayed here for one night. The staff were all so kind and welcoming. Walking distance to the Boardwalk and the Wharf. Right across the street from the beach. We will definitely be back!

Awesome stay, would go here again.
Welcomed with a smile. We were able to check in early. Lovely room. Really clean unless you were looking for “dirt”. Right across from the beach so depending on your room you might have a beach view. 4th floor has a balcony facing the beach. Prices were great for the area. Area was nice and had friendly people. The hotel has three parking lots of varying size, one in front of the lobby, under the building, and at the back of the building. After checkout they let us keep our vehicle in the parking lot while went to get food and check out the wharf, this may be because they did not have a lot of people at the moment but it does not hurt to ask.

Our room at Marea was pleasant and clean, and the updating is nice. Loved the bath and beauty products too. The hotel is across the street from the beach, with lots of great viewing areas and the pier and restaurants nearby. We were staying just the one night, but it's making me want to return for a longer stay. What a cute town!

This hotel is only a few years old, and looks great in pictures. In person however you can see that it was not constructed very well, and in a few years I think that it will be falling apart. Also, a warning to consider the time of year that you are traveling. We were there in November. We thought that staying across the street from the boardwalk and the pier would be fun, but we went out to find dinner at 6pm and everything around us was closed. (Except for the bowling alley) We found out later that the touristy areas don't open much in off season. It was disappointing.
