“What a lovely place to stay!”

Schooner Inn

26/26 found this review helpful

We stayed at the Schooner Inn for four nights Sept. 19-23 and it was wonderful! The room was so clean, bright and the kitchen was so well stocked! The only thing it could have used was a spaghetti strainer but I made do. The oceanview was breathtaking and I felt like I was back in Jamaica again! We left the door open so we could hear the waves and it was so relaxing. I loved the fact that we were so close to the ocean, leaving to go eat or use the bathroom wasn't a heartache and getting right back was a flash. The staff were friendly and very helpful and only a phone call away. The pool, while small, was like a hottub in temperature and my husband and I found it heavenly. It wasn't crowded while we were there so I can see that the small pool could be an inconvience to some but we were there to swim in the ocean so it wasn't an issue.

The only thing I feel I should warn anyone about is the Seafood Harbor on 32nd St and Atlantic Ave. We saw a $1 off coupon in a discount book for the Seafood Harbor and decided to try that, how expensive could a buffet be, after all? We went in and it was by no means anything fancy but it got the job done. We just assumed since the enterees started at $10 the buffet could only be about $10-$15 per person, but this was CRAZY! When you are famished almost anything will do. I almost died when the bill came. $30 a person! (not including an extra $5.95 for Crab legs) Beware!!!! Shame on Seafood Harbor, shame on us for not checking the price.

As far as the Schooner Inn is concerned? Thumbs up all around, we loved it there and would go back again in a heartbeat! Thank you!

“Loved It”

Schooner Inn

A previous entry from some guy in Michigan is crazy!!! Hello?!?! We are at the beach!!! The outside locks do get sand and saltwater in them!! I highly doubt it has anything to do wtih the keys and buying them...they were obviously programmed correctly. And as far as the owner, I stay here all the time and the owner (this year) replaced all of the mattresses and replaced the rest of the dressers that wern't done last year; and all new jacuzzies last year as well. This hotel is highly kept for it's age and for the year-round abuse it takes. The front desk staff is extremely helpful and kind. (Everyone has been working there a year or more.) The price is right, and hey...it's an oceanfront hotel with a great view!!! You just can't make some people happy. If you're staying at the beach...you shouldn't be locked in your room all day any how :) This a great family place to stay while on vacation!!!

“Nice Hotel Nice Price”

Schooner Inn

Aug 4, 2005
7/8 found this review helpful

The last time i was here, i was around 16 or 17 years old. For someone that age it really isnt a bad hotel, its at the end of the boardwalk to its not too busy and choatic, but its a simple walk to the peir and all the action of VaBeach. Its about 1 block from where the fishing and sightseeing boats depart from. As far as the hotel itself, you get what you pay for. And this is one of the best oceanfront deals, cause its cheaper then some hotels that are not oceanfront. I mean really, if you go to a hotel on the beach, and complain about sand on the floor, you need to go somewhere else. If your a hotel freak, and you dont leave your hotel or you think the weather will be bad, dont stay here, you will be prety upset. But assuming the wather is nice like it so often is, this place is fine, Its got everything you need, without all thoes unimportant things the bigger more expensive hotels have.....Why worry about an indoor pool on a 90 degree day, when your paying to stay on the beach??????

“This place is awful”

Schooner Inn

Aug 1, 2005
3/6 found this review helpful

When we arrived in the room there was sand on the floor, but we were able to overlook this unfortunately we were unable to overlook the fact that the sheets were filthy, there were red stains on one set of sheets and the pillowcase and it looked like foot prints on the sheets, no one bothered to put clean sheets on the bed or mop the floors. This was my birthday and I wanted to spend it on the beach instead I ended up staying in an hotel in Hampton for the weekend until we returned home on Sunday.

I wouldn't recommend this hotel to anyone.
