Windswept Motel

This was my 3^rd stay here, different years, always Aprils before the «season» officially began. The rooms are much less expensive then, like half. So, it’s always been clean, quieter than the White Sands (stayed there many times and it wasn’t worth the price unless you need a heated pool & little gym) and staff here always pleasant. I don’t mind the location of the boardwalk not extending in front of the motel, as that would change the view and add noise and traffic. It’s a quick half block walk to the boardwalk. The rooms facing the ocean have a nice view — so relaxing to sit on the balcony or even just listen to the sound of the ocean waves.
Rooms have a tub, not a guaranteed thing anymore, as well as cable and mini– fridge. I had no trouble with the Wi-​Fi. The early check in, at 1 PM, is unique and wonderful for getting a whole first day in at the beach.
I have not tried to access the beach from the hotel, but will check that out and leave a ‘tip.” No pool I’ve ever seen.
Overall, a great value for the accommodations during the off season.

Yes it was clean. Yes it was a decent room. Yes it is steps from the boardwalk. Yes it was beachfront. BUT … you had to know a but was coming, There is no beach or boardwalk access from the motel. The owner must have pissed off someone big in town because the boardwalk access is barricaded (with literal piles of rubble and rock and broken fencing) causing you walk out to the street and around the public parking to get onto boardwalk. The lovely beach you are gazing upon from your room is steps away but fenced up causing you to walk past both a public beach and a private beach belonging to the next door hotel (which looks like a beautiful place) before you can get onto the beach belonging to your premium priced beachfront hotel. I paid for beachfront, didnt know I had to check the fine print for beachfront access too. Internet service sucked too.
This was July 2015

I have a stay of two more nights here ahead of me as I write this. The bathrooms and the sheets are clean. The staff is very friendly. It is a good motel as far as motels go. Except for the dank musty mildewed smell from which I have not yet been able to distract myself or escape. This place could really use (i.e. NEEDS) some dehumidifiers.

My husband and I just spent Fri. — Mon. what a great weekend! The staff was friendly and very helpful our room was small but very clean. The beach is just steps away but we couldn’t go in the ocean because of the rip tide. That was okay because we made good use of their pool which was clean and heated. Point Pleasant has a few good restaurants and a nice quiet family atmosphere. We will go back!

Stayed here this week for one night and was very impressed. Arrived a before the 1 pm check-​in time and was allowed to check right in. Our room was small with a queen size bed and was very clean! The bathroom was also small with a stall shower but clean as well. The beach was a short walk away since they share it with the hotel next door. The boardwalk is about 5 blocks away which isn’t that bad of a walk. My only complaint is the Free WiFi hardly worked. Staff was very friendly, free coffee in the morning. The day you check out you are still allowed to use the pool and beach all day. Will be back!

We rented 2 rooms for almost $ 900 total for 2 days. What we were promised was free high speed internet amongst other things.
The internet stopped working and the front desk ladies were too lazy to reset the router and kept telling me that it was working.
I requested to speak to the owner and they refused at first and then had him call me. He was completely useless and said this happens.
He never issued me a credit nor did he show any signs of compassion for his unsatisfied customer.
I would never go back, nor have a family member or friend go to this place.

I was referred by a friend who raved about the cleanliness and service of this establishment. Well, we totally agree! The service and staff are excellent and although it was a short stay we were treated like family. This was such a relaxing atmosphere that everyone vacationing here were very friendly to one another. That in itself, speaks well of the type of place the windswept is!!! Most definitely we will return!!!
