My husband and I are regulars in Montauk NY. Our routine starts with a early morning drive to Montauk, where we join others to start fishing at 7 am on the Lazy Bone. (We get breakfast on the way) After a few hours of fishing we return to the dock and have lunch. We then head to the Wavecrest for... More

We went to Montauk to celebrate our first wedding anniversary. We went just before the high season started, checking in on a Saturday and checking out on a Monday. We requested an ocean view room and we got exactly what we asked for. Our room had sliding doors that led to its own balcony with chairs where we relaxed while... More

We've been spending 4 dqays to a week at the Wavecrest for at least the last 5 years. We love the beach and enjoy the laid-back (less so in the last 2 years) lifestyle at Montauk. We really like the Wavecrest for the following reasons: - IT's ON THE BEACH....many of the hotels/motels in Montauk are across the road from... More

We stayed here a few days prior to Hurricane Irene hitting the east coast. Montauk was not a great place to be with an impending hurricane heading our way. We checked in on Thursday morning and prepaid for Friday, expecting to check-out on Saturday. As the forecast became more serious, we decided that staying out on the tip of LI... More

Sounds to me you should have rented a private house with a private beach. I'd hate to be on vaction with you no drinks, no music what vacation did you have. Our stay at the wavecrest was a blast. The office staff, cleaning people and the beach guys were great. I will definetely be back. More

The Wavecrest needs some help with their manners. The staff at the front desk is very rude - one woman in particular is most unpleasant. Our pull-out queen sofa was unfit for a human, I can't even begin to describe - it was just coils... It felt like it was from the 18th century. When we brought this to the... More

My wife checked in ahead of me only to be given a very musty smelly room that has probably sustained water damage at some point in the Panoramic building. She was moved to another room next door which was much better smelling after persuading they said they were fully booked (there was a vacancy sign when I pulled up,albeit they... More

It is not super fancy, but it is very clean,updated and comfortable. We stay in the Beach Dune units. The beds were very comfortable, clean wtih new bed linens and comforters. It also... More

Was reluctant to pay the price of this dilapidated hotel, but wanted one more night on the island. Unfortunately they had one room left. This hotel is in desperate need of updating. The view is certainly great, but the structure needs TLC. The people staying beneath us were drunk and singing at the top of their lungs until the cops... More

Location of this resort is optimal and views are lovely. Complimentary beach chairs and umbrellas are provided and the staff that brings them to the beach is helpful and friendly. Rooms vary greatly although the cost is the same so you can be lucky (with a new updated room) or unlucky as I was with stain and uneven bulge in... More
