    smaller room
    noise disturbance
    limited amenities

    The location was ideal, close to the beach and shops. The staff were helpful and the pool area was well-maintained, perfect for relaxing after a long day. However, I experienced issues with the room being smaller than expected, which could be a challenge for longer stays. Overall, it's suitable for short visits, especially for budget travelers or families.

    cozy room
    outdoor pool
    relaxing garden
    noisy nights

    The King room was cozy, and I really loved the outdoor pool and relaxing garden area—it was perfect for unwinding after a long day. It did get a bit noisy at night, but it didn’t ruin my overall experience! I’d definitely recommend bringing your own towels just in case they take a while to be refreshed. 🌴

    The motel offers an excellent location close to the beach and activities, featuring a beautiful pool area and well-maintained grounds. The staff are friendly, but the rooms could use some more amenities like a coffee maker. Overall, it’s a pleasant place to unwind with the family.

    soundproofing issues

    We really appreciated the newly remodeled pool area and loved the kids' jungle gym. The picnic area with barbecue setups was perfect for family meals. Plus, the staff made our check-in smooth, making it a great experience overall.

    My kids wished for better soundproofing between rooms.

    great pool

    Families need to pay attention

    Friendly staff always made sure we had fresh towels when we needed them.

    It wasn't inexpensive but still reasonable for what we got.

    beautiful scenery
    easy access

    great access to parks and local attractions for weekend strolls

    I loved the short walk to Wetland Park where I could enjoy the beautiful scenery and also how close we were to Fisherman's Wharf, making it super easy to explore local eateries and enjoy the waterfront vibe.

    pool area
    restaurant proximity

    I enjoyed the pool area and found it perfect for hanging out. I also appreciated the proximity to a restaurant with great food, making it convenient for meals. However, I had to deal with a moldy smell in the room, which was a real problem during my stay. As someone who loves road trips through the U.S. , this was a letdown.

    spacious room
    comfy beds
    picnic area
    outdated shower

    Perfect for Families!

    We had such a nice time! The room was spacious, big enough for our family of four, and the beds were super comfy. I loved the picnic area outside where we could chill and eat. One bummer was that the shower could've used some updates. But overall, a solid spot!

    I appreciated the relaxing atmosphere and the well-maintained pool at Shark Reef Resort. The location near local shops makes it convenient. However, the room cleaning could use improvement. I noticed the floors weren’t as clean as I’d hoped. Overall, a decent stay!

    ideal location
    helpful staff
    well-maintained pool
    small room
    limited space

    During my recent stay, I found the location of Shark Reef Resort Motel & Cottages to be ideal, not far from the beach and local shops. The staff was helpful and responsive, ensuring my needs were met promptly. The swimming pool was well-maintained, providing a relaxing atmosphere after a long day of work.

    The room was smaller than expected, which may be a concern for longer stays.
