The hotel was beautiful and our room was just perfect. We had a junior suite and it was everything we could have asked for, overlooking the ocean. The staff was perhaps the best staff overall compared to the staff I have stayed at over the many years I have traveled and that covers an awful lot of travel. It was always service with a smilem they answered our questions clearly and were well informed when replying on any question we asked.

I think I just discovered the best beach time in NJ, my family and I just loved everything about the Wave Resort and Long Branch in general. There are so much dining options and plenty of activities for all ages. Can't wait to return.

Our stay at the Wave Resort was great. It felt like we were in Miami but with a more family-friendly atmosphere, which was perfect since we were traveling with a baby. The room was clean, and the staff were friendly and hospitable. The pool was warm enough for us to enjoy with the baby, even though it was a chilly and windy day. While the beach chairs and umbrella service were convenient, we were disappointed by the lack of privacy. Other people, not associated with the Wave Resort, were sitting in the designated area, blasting music, and setting up their own umbrellas. If this is not allowed, it should be more strictly enforced. Additionally, on the day of checkout, none of the valet attendants knew how to drive a manual transmission car, so my husband had to retrieve the car himself. Given this inconvenience, we believe a partial refund of the valet service fee would be appropriate. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and hope these issues can be addressed to improve the experience for future guests.

Front desk staff was fantastic. Megan and Taylor were wonderful. The kids that worked in the coffee shop were also great major problem parking the hotel has a huge parking area right across the street except they charge $58 a day to park if you’re a guest I think that’s absolutely ridiculous especially if you’re a guest, there’s a parking garage on the other side of the street that charges $20 a day. I feel if you were a guest of a hotel the least they can do is allow you to park especially when the parking area is absolutely huge very disappointed in the parking situation .

I spent $ 850.00 for one night. $ 55.00 for parking one night. This place is not a resort. Tiny pool, filled with kids, the "gym" is the size of a closet with 4 machines. No services at all. When I asked for a late checkout 12pm instead of 11am they said no. Rude staff, place is a total rip off. Don't stay here.
