Ocean Surf Resort

We were extremely disappointed during our stay at Ocean Surf Resort. We’ve been visiting this property for 15 years and always looked forward coming back, especially with our two little boys. Ocean surf has always been a family like experience with families of small kids enjoying the pool laughing and enjoying themselves. our last visit was just two years ago, including my parents from out of state. our little boys have especially loved playing in the heated pool splashing laughing jumping in the pool being very carefree. everyone so kid friendly smiling and embracing them. this time it was a very different experience. the culture there seemed cold toward families very few children only be mostly adults surrounding the property. as we entered the pool area my husband saw signs everywhere that you were not allowed to jump in the pool. which was something new to us. with 9 and 6 year old boys all they do is jump in the pool. on top of that our younger son is diagnosed with autism and that is one of his favorite things to do at home is jump in the pool. We knew that this interruption in his thought process would be impossible to enforce. We tried to talk with the office manager but was not accepting of our situation with a child with special needs. Basically our summer vacation was ruined. the biggest part of our trip was letting the boys swim. we had no choice but to leave. never in my life did i think i needed to call ahead and make sure that you were allowed to jump in pool

Enjoyed my stay!

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.

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)

Perfect for our quick family getaway.

Montauk’s best kept secret! Low key, not fussy, but totally redone rooms. They keep the pool open through Columbus Day - super heated - and the viewing deck is awesome with cushioned lounge chairs. Very easy to get down to the beach - no steep steps or high decks to climb down. It’s a very small place so not a lot of crowds anywhere. Location is perfect. Rooms are tight, but we spend all of our time outside. Absolutely love it here.

This was an older beachfront property, so my expectations were set accordingly. This was literally steps away from the ocean and the room faced the water. The bed was comfortable and i slept well. The front desk manager was super nice and helpful. After check-in, they text you a door code which is good for the length of stay - no keys. Housekeeping - the bathroom was filthy. I did inform the manager when I was leaving. However, I see this exact same issue was noted on a prior review - so they need a new cleaning crew, as this is an ongoing concern. I made some pictures of the bathroom, but decided to not post them.

What a great discovery! I had a meeting in Southampton and decided to stay overnight in Montauk. With July 4th, very little was available, but I got the last ocean Queen. Very reasonably priced. Smack dab on the ocean, and a quick walk to town, this motel has all amenities - a real coffee maker, full sets of silver, glassware and plates, a microwave, and a great selection of furniture, with a big flat screen TV. It's the ONLY motel in Montauk that has all this. My room was immaculate. OK, perhaps the paint could use a touch up here and there, and new curtains but who cares? Staff was super pleasant and accommodating. I've stayed at a lot of places in Montauk over the years, including the very high end. NONE of them has the live-in amenities and furniture that Ocean Surf Resort does. Bed was quite comfortable, and all linens were stylish. The owners have put a lot of careful thought into this place and it shows. I'll be back!

If you are planning a trip in your early 20s with your college friends do not come here. The hotel gave us a problem with everything. The staff was rude and the entire time we were nothing but respectful (and I mean that) my friends caught one of the managers peeking thru the window in my room when I was sleeping one night also
