Ashore Oceanfront Hotel by Marriott

Ashore Oceanfront Hotel by Marriott

10/10 Excellent
"Our very first stay and won’t be our last. This hotel has been beautifully decorated, is exceptionally clean, and is a wonderful layout. Loved walking directly out on to the beach! And what a fantastic plus…….their very own beach chairs and umbrellas are available to guests. Only two cons: the bed wasn’t very comfortable and there wasn’t a full length mirror in the room. Otherwise, an overall excellent experience. We look forward to visiting again next year."

10/10 Excellent
"We really enjoyed our stay as a family of four with two young kids. The resort is located right on the beach and offers direct access, which was a huge plus for us. Our room appeared to have been recently renovated and was comfortable and well maintained. The staff were very friendly, welcoming, and accommodating throughout our stay. The main area that could use some updating is the pool and its surrounding area. It would also be great to see more activities and entertainment options for young children. Overall, the resort oceanfront view is beautiful, and we had a wonderful experience. We would definitely stay here again!"
