This was a nice stay overall. The man at the front desk was very nice, super closer to the beach if you don’t wanna be right on the boardwalk, the room is small so was the bathroom, the room wasn’t the cleanliness but you can’t expect a resort from a motel close to the beach, there’s also a great and fast restaurant behind the motel from the Sahara motel and the walls are thin so you can hear your neighbors. But overall we enjoyed our stay and we would be back again

There were still items from previous guests in the room, even though it was "cleaned". Sheets and towels had stains, and an extra sheet we requested even had clumps of hair. Air conditioning also had problems. The staff were nice and had good customer service

My stay here was wonderful. Great location, free parking, close to the beach, and fresh hot coffee all day in the lobby. But the best part of it was our gracious host, Anil, he was amazing! He really went out of his way to make sure we were comfortable and happy throughout our entire vacation. Very polite and accommodating to our every need, and did it with a smile at all times. I will definitely come back here just because of him and his positive attitude! He truly understands what it means to be in the hospitality industry and make his guests feel welcome, happy and comfortable. Thanks Anil for all you did to make our stay a pleasant one.

Basic motel (no food), 2 blocks off the boardwalk. It’s been around a while and it shows but it’s very clean; ac, microwave, and fridge all worked fine, lots of hot water and towels. didn’t need the wifi so can’t say about that, basic antenna tv. Great staff, smoke alarm went south, had a new one in under five minutes For the price, in-season, definitely worth it.

You get what you pay for

The man checking us in was wonderful. The good things ended there. Between finding a hair claw/clip on the bed that wasn't mine, what appeared to be black mold on the walls in the bathroom, and the fact that we didn't have toilet paper or even a toilet paper HOLDER on the wall in the bathroom. I am never one to care where I stay when I just need somewhere to sleep, but even I cared this time. Nothing was overtly disgusting, but I still slept on top of the sheets with my beach towel as a blanket. Thankfully it was just one night. After 40 years in OCMD I finally found a place I won't stay again.

I liked that the room had a nice clean looking floor instead of the dingy carpet most places seem to have, however the bathroom looked a little neglected. It was clean enough but looks like it could use some additional upkeep besides a cleaning. Otherwise and overall, the Cabana was a great place to stay for the weekend, not far from the boardwalk at all.

Quiet, quaint, safe motel. Guy working the front desk was very polite and got us situated quickly. AC unit in the room worked so well & no sudden water temp changes when showering, which is what I experienced when I stayed beachside. Best for a simplistic getaway

Not unhappy, just giving an honest review!

My biggest complaint about the room is the lack of hooks and places to put your towels and toiletries. The sink is a pedestal sink right next to the toilet. No fan in the bathroom so we opened the window and took a chargeable fan. I went to the dollar tree and bought hangers and door hooks for the towels. There were no wash clothes or hand towels (there would be nowhere to put it). AC works good. Take a ROKU with you if you want to watch tv (which works) - we stayed in room #47. We also didn't have a microwave which I asked for one and they brought one to our room. No long mirror. Some pictures have different "upgrades" so dont expect the room to look like the pictures! Could have been cleaner, there were "unknown" dirt spots on the walls behind the bed and bathroom. Shower curtain was gross. Pool was nice. Staff was nice. Two people in a room was tight and it rained a lot during our stay with no balcony to sit on. For the price, it was OKAY

The room wasn’t what I expected as was advertised online. The air conditioner was very loud and there were not enough outlets. The outlets that were available, were oddly placed. The rooms bathroom was up to date and clean, but the room could use some updating. When booking, I was unaware the the pool was oddly located in the parking lot. On a positive note, the staff in the office were very friendly and helpful. The motel was very close to the beach and that was wonderful.
