Purnell Hummock Tours

We love the location and price. It’s the only place I’ve seen so far that has nearly ocean front view from the porch without paying ocean front prices. It’s small, quaint, and safe feeling. Very friendly staff. It has some shortcomings that would be easy to rectify, such as no handles on the cupboards and drawers (at least in family room #18), we had to make tape handles to be able to open cupboards. The fridge had its handle broken off, light bulbs were burnt out, lots of dirt where the floor meets the walls, the carpet is very greasy and stained, mini blinds are messed up. These things could bother someone with higher expectations. But for us, the only thing that really bothered us was that even though it has a kitchenette, it is completely bare…. no utensils or dishes. They really should specify this in their description of the room. Even when I called the hotel to ask I was told “I don’t know if there’s silverware in there.”. If they put a little more effort into its upkeep it would be absolutely perfect. But we come every year and will continue to do so, we love it despite its imperfections.

2 minutes easy walk to the Boardwalk at the Gorgeous Beach

The unit was outdated, small, and had mismatched and old furniture. The shower in one of our bathrooms wouldn’t drain. The oven did not work. There was only one television. Concerns couldn’t be communicated because the staff hardly spoke English (although they were very nice). The unit was in a really nice location - 1.5 blocks from the boardwalk and beach. We liked the outside showers.
