My husband and I stayed at the Schooner Inn for two nights while visiting family. It was perfect for a quick trip. The room was spacious and clean. We loved the location at the end of the boardwalk. Parking was readily available and everything was in walking distance. The pool area was small but we didn’t go to the beach for the pool so that didn’t matter to our stay. I’m not sure I would choose to stay here for a whole week with young kids if I wanted a pool to swim in regularly, but for the beach it would be perfect and there was a covered playground just steps away. The staff was friendly and helpful. The room temp was very comfortable. The A/C ran the whole time but it was honestly like white nose and didn’t bother us at all. Beds were very comfortable and there was a fully stocked kitchenette. The price per night was amazing for a beachfront hotel. Would absolutely recommend!

We had a wonderful stay here. The room, overlooking the ocean, was immaculate and smelled so nice. We got to the hotel at 11:00 am, much earlier than the check in time. They gave us a parking tag and allowed us to use the bathroom to change so that we could spend the day on the beach and at the pool while waiting for our room to be ready. The beds were very comfortable, as was the large side chair in the room. We also had a dining table with seating for 4 and kitchenette stocked with plates, silverware, pots, dish cleaning supplies, and paper towels. The bathroom was very small but the water pressure in the shower was amazing. We spent a lot of time on the balcony watching the surfers. Will definitely book this hotel again!

I highly recommend Maui’s and Waterman’s. Everything was within walking distance even for older population. Matt, at the front desk, was fabulous! He was professional and extremely helpful with many questions! Housekeeping folks were efficient and kept my room picked up and clean. The Schooner was the last hotel on the boardwalk. I felt very safe and the grandchildren loved having the park and ocean right there! Great birthday trip!!
