We were extremely disappointed during our stay at Ocean Surf Resort. We’ve been visiting this property for 15 years and always looked forward coming back, especially with our two little boys. Ocean surf has always been a family like experience with families of small kids enjoying the pool laughing and enjoying themselves. our last visit was just two years ago, including my parents from out of state. our little boys have especially loved playing in the heated pool splashing laughing jumping in the pool being very carefree. everyone so kid friendly smiling and embracing them. this time it was a very different experience. the culture there seemed cold toward families very few children only be mostly adults surrounding the property. as we entered the pool area my husband saw signs everywhere that you were not allowed to jump in the pool. which was something new to us. with 9 and 6 year old boys all they do is jump in the pool. on top of that our younger son is diagnosed with autism and that is one of his favorite things to do at home is jump in the pool. We knew that this interruption in his thought process would be impossible to enforce. We tried to talk with the office manager but was not accepting of our situation with a child with special needs. Basically our summer vacation was ruined. the biggest part of our trip was letting the boys swim. we had no choice but to leave. never in my life did i think i needed to call ahead and make sure that you were allowed to jump in pool

The location, sundeck, pool & ocean front property were great but a little run down. The rooms were small. The Linens & beds were clean & comfortable, but furnishings & bathrooms felt a little run down. That said, I would still return because the staff were attentive & location was amazing.

The location is perfect! You can walk right into town. The rooms are decent, but the beds and pillows are not very comfortable. I do wish there was better locks and maybe a small safe in the room.

Out of 6 nights 2 nights there was shooting of film happening most of the night and we could. Not sleep. They should have informed the guest and while this was happening parking was nightmare. We could not sleep due to lot of film shooting activities in the hotel. It ruined our whole break.

There are so many things to love about Ocean Surf Resort. We had a spectacular view ocean front, only yards from the water, we heard the pounding waves all night, we could walk everywhere, including to Harvest on Fort Pond for a delicious dinner, and our accommodations were excellent.

Last minute trip to Montauk with a Saturday night stay was crazy expensive…BUT, this place was clean, and literally a few steps from such a beautiful beach it was worth it. Does need some TLC. The AC was very loud and I told the front desk upon checking out. Close to everything downtown. Would stay again but book much further in advance and with the place directly. Very nice front desk staff.

The only good thing was the location
When I entered our room, my reaction was:” what the f…?!?!” We had paid $1900 for two nights ($950 per night) and found ourselves in a mediocre motel room. Pain was peeling down the walls and the bathroom one of these all plastic tin and wall. The balcony door wasn’t locking. The A/C (window style) was malfunctioning and the engine like noise was getting in every 5 min for 15 s and then off. On and off all night. I tried to sleep with earplugs and my husband with a mouse cancelling headphones. In the end we switched it off and the room be some really hot. Oh, and the “ocean side view”! A joke! Our balcony literally graced the other building but if you sat in the right angle you could see the ocean. The grills outside only worked with charcoal. Three positive notes (thank God!) : 1- the location. It’s literally in the beach and the beach is gorgeous, very natural and not too populated. 2- beds were comfortable. 3-there was a mini kitchen in the room and a fridge so we were able to cook (because montauk restaurants are also extremely expensive). As far as I’m concerned this was a total rip off but if you decide to go, make sure to book the rooms 26 and 28 with an actual view on the ocean. Will not be back.

Outdated, no beach service. Terrible bathrooms.
Rooms were not renovated and old. Bathroom was functional, but needs major improvements. The hote claims they have beach chairs and umbrellas but you have to grab them yourself and set them up. And they are all gone by 9am anyways. The pool loungers are all locked to the fence and can’t group together with my wife and kids. Kinda weird even for NY.
