Windswept Motel 1008 Ocean Avenue North, Point Pleasant Beach, NJ 08742

"This was our 5th stay here and we already have a room booked for a small October trip as well. I wouldn't stay anywhere else. The location is perfect. 3 min walk to the beach, 5 min walk to the boardwalk (there is a smaller boardwalk connected to the main one right behind the motel). The owners and staff are some of the nicest people you will meet. Housekeeping is always on top of everything and made sure we never ran out of anything we needed. I have only one small gripe and it has been mentioned in other reviews but the beds are not very comfortable. They aren't so bad that you can't sleep in them but they could use an upgrade desperately. Again I wouldn't stay anywhere else and this would never keep me from coming back! The prices are competitive and I always feel like we got what we paid for and more."

"Stayed 4 days, right on the boardwalk and private beach access is amazing. Rooms were clean and were cleaned everyday, may have to ask to make sure they will come but they did always ask first what we needed for the day. Could use a microwave, fridge didnt work that well, so maybe new appliances and yes beds were not very comfortable but for the price and location and unlimited ice and coffee, cant complain too much!"

"Please let me start by saying I’ve never took the time to write a review good or bad about a place. The front desk lady was extremely nice and pleasant. The location of this place is really great for the boardwalk being just south in very close walking distance but far enough to be quiet. It’s a really great location. The negative part is the room decor is extremely outdated and the bed felt like a Fred flinstone bed made of a rock. I truly feel like I did not sleep at all. For the price of the room it’s sad these folks have not put money into making the rooms nicer in this place since the 80’s. If you want a good nights sleep don’t stay here. You’ll hear everything around you. There were also ants in my room, found one on the nightstand and one crawling on me in the bed. The ants part is whatever no biggie, but the fact this place doesn’t have nice bedding is beyond trash. There was no fitted sheet on our bed just two top sheets. Just look around for other accommodations."

"The Windswept has become our faithful Point Pleasant motel for good reason. We’ve been visiting for a few years now and will continue to do so. While we are a family of four with little ones, the room only felt tight when we were dealing with bad weather. The amenities including the pool and free beach access are so convenient. The proximity to the boardwalk is awesome but it’s also quiet so you get the best of both. Our room had a cute little balcony and a great ocean and dune view. It’s a basic beach motel but elevated because of the nice little touches but most importantly the staff is absolutely wonderful. It seems to be family run which makes a big difference in service. They are extremely accommodating. The cleaning staff is also thoughtful and thoroughly maintains the rooms. Their kindness also cannot be matched. While we had terrible weather this past stay, we will be returning in the fall because it’s always a great experience."

"My wife and I have been coming here for the past three summers and each experience has been terrific. The rooms are spacious (plenty of room for our family of four), spit shine clean, and the customer service is leaps and bounds better than what we've experienced at other hotels in the area. The location is also great. You are walking distance to the beach and boardwalk and you get free beach passes with your stay to a hotel only area of the beach which is an added bonus. The customer service during our most recent visit in particular really went above and beyond to ensure we had a fantastic time and we certainly did. Looking forward to booking again here next year and for years to come! :)"
