So sad to think people would confuse a water bug with a roach. We have been staying at the Starlight for years. It has been nothing but enjoyable, CLEAN,and the employes are outstanding. They have been there for years and they become part of your family. The beach is just one block and Mini golf right across the street...The other... More

I have been coming down the shore to stay at the Starlight with my family since I was a teenager. It is truly the cleanest motel in all of the Jersey Shore. I have never heard anyone complain about types of bugs at the Starlight. Are you sure you didn't bring it in? I totally disagree with you in writing... More

The area is a peninsula with NO hotels on the beach as it is all private residences. The ocean is houses away from the hotel and... More

We planned to stay one week while visting friends who live in Manaloking. The reviews we read were all glowing, but the place was a disaster. The first room we were given had water leaking from the retro-fitted air conditioner and had lots of noise from the pool. The manger gave us another room farther away from the pool area.... More

This is our first and last time at this Motel. We were afraid to use the grounds due to the aggressive crowd in the shared courtyard and pool area. This seems to be tolerated by management bc even after arrests were made, the same were allowed to return the next day. We were unable to use the shared area bc... More

The hotel is very clean and better than the typical shore motel. The rooms are modern with plenty of closet/storage. The air cond was great and the bathroom is well laid out. Check in was easy and pleasant. The location is great with an arcade across the street and 2 great delis down the block. Front desk was pleasant. There... More
