We stayed for two nights and were really pleased with the hotel. It is an older hotel located down Salter Path away from the hustle and bustle of Atlantic Beach. It was located right below the Aquarium which was one of the main attractions of our trip and right down the road from the putt putt place. If you are... More

Clamdiggers is right on the beach. All the rooms are ocean front with private balconies. The rooms have refrigerators and microwaves. The rooms are very clean, reasonably priced and there is a nice restaurant downstairs. We always order the special. Wednesday night is our favorite - the seafood combo. The oysters and deviled crab are really good. What more can... More

We Were Looking For A Local Place That Served A Variety Of Food. At This Place, That's All We Enjoyed (Except The Hushpuppies). The Service Was Horrible, It Was Over An Hour Before We Got Our Food. I Have Eaten Better Fish At LJS. We Won't Be Making This A Family Tradition.

We come every year. For $25 you get umbrella service for two days. It is peaceful and relaxing. You can get drinks and snacks at the pool bar including $1 hot dogs. The restaurant breakfast is great. Best of all is the view from the room and balcony. All rooms are oceanfront and the balconies are private. Cons: small bathroom.

The Clam Digger is a great place to stay if you want to park your car and not have to get in it again for the duration of your stay. I just stayed for the weekend with family and freinds to celebrate by 30th birthday and Mother's Day. The restaurant is great, especially the breakfast, and it is reasonably priced.... More

After a long journey it was just lovely to arrive at a very reasonably priced hotel that is smack on the beach. The room is spacious and very clean. We has our own balcony and was able to leave the door open and listen to the crashing waves of a night time.

This is truly a beautiful spot. Right on the ocean, nothing but beach to walk on. Great views at night of moon and sunrise. Restaurant was very good. Rooms were adequate in size and amenities (coffee maker, mini fridge). Slider opens up to a patio overlooking the beach. Hot tub was nice, however the pool was very cold. Bathrooms are... More

We would have loved to stay at the Clamdigger Inn because it had mostly good reviews and it seems the view cannot be beat for the price. Unfortunately we will NOT be staying at this property due to encountering some shockingly terrible customer service BEFORE even arriving! I booked my reservation months in advance and informed the agent that I... More

I stayed at this hotel the end of April, first couple of days of May 2013. I was in room 708 which is on the top floor right as you get off of the elevator. The view was great from the balcony. The room was a little dated and reminded me a bit of a throwback hotel from the 70's.... More

I've been coming here since it was a Ramada and it seems to get better over time. It's small, all the rooms are oceanfront with balconies, the restaurant has some of the best seafood around and a bar that's cozy and usually quiet. The lunch specials save you the trouble of getting out to find a meal and the value... More
