Reviews for The Ocean Club on Smugglers Beach
Review 1：Would have liked to have a later check out (it is 10am). It is always nice to have at least an extra 2 hours (some places let you stay at least until 12), and we were not afforded that. There was not a lot of business in the middle of the week on the Cape at this time of year, so that wasn't ever going to be the issue. There were PLENTY of rooms available.
Review 2：Didn't stay but overnight, however, clean and tidy, nice rooms, great views. Wish we had more time and will definitely come back!!
Review 3：as mentioned in what liked the airconditioner was not performing as expected. Would shut off and not having ability to open windows was an issue.
Review 4：Everything was fantastic excluding air conditioner. At the far end from ocean yet still a great view. Pool was very nice. Staff friendly. Room decor excellent.
Review 5：Property is a little dated. The walls between units are quite thin. We heard snoring from next door.
Review 6：Nice location right on the beach. Friendly and helpful staff.
Review 7：Unfriendly staff at times, but housekeeping was poor. Dirty room towels. Room wasn't cleaned thoroughly.
Review 8：Closeness to the water& pool option. The room design and upgraded decor
Review 9：It was not a huge issue but there was no elevator. If you have physical limitations or large suitcases, you might ask for ground floor.
Review 10：Very comfortable and the room did have an ocean view. Updated decor.
Review 11：Waterfront access was great but ocean edge had loads of thick red seaweed we didn't swim there. Used pool. This is a timeshare and we were not there to purchase one, but ended up listening to a sales pitch by a very nice lady- however at the $300 a night we paid, we werent thrilled about the attempt to sell as we were getting ready to check out.
Review 12：Nice room, decor and very clean. Location great- near mouth of Bass River. As kayakers we enjoyed paddling the river-the entire length and back. Nice little bakery down the street, but wished there was a descent hot breakfast offering on site. The beach was nice to walk. We were there during meteor showers in August and enjoyed the sky at night on the beach. We liked the private back patio and path right to the beach- just steps away
Review 13：The beach had no chairs or umbrellas to sit on. You could borrow chairs but they only had 6 available on a first come first serve. They were changing the air conditioning and it did not keep the room cool. It is listed as a 2 room with a partition that you could close for privacy on both sides but the air was only in the living room part, so the other room was sweltering.
Review 14：this location had a nice beach and was convenient to restaurants. It was easy to find and to get to.
Review 15：walls were thin - not a factor this trip but over longer stay could be of concern with noisy neighbors.
Review 16：clean and well ordered - exactly as presented in photos
Review 17：Bed sheets or bed and towels didn't have that fresh laundry smell although they're clean. The unit didn't have a stove but only a microwave to cook. However there is a community room with a full kitchen. Can't swim in the beach, full of seaweeds, makes water look dark.
Review 18：Right on the water.
Review 19：Staff complaining about their jobs, and more than one staff member complained to me about lack of stadding and communication between the front desk and house keeping. Poor experience due to staff making me feel uncomfortable.
Review 20：Could hear and see the public event on Bass River Beach during the day that would only be a problem if one is trying to sleep. Could also hear snoring and muffled phone conversation next door but not enough to be annoyed.
Review 21：Private beach next to a public one. Great location for a day trip to Cape Cod National Seashore and Provicetown. Close proximity to Hyannis for a day of shopping and tours/ferry rides from Hyannis Port. Very tastefully decorated and comfortable suite with club facility. Just right for our family of four with two teenagers who slept on pull out sofa-bed in the living room (with hidden sliding doors). Don, who checked us in on Saturday was very welcoming and helpful with restaurant suggestions (our conclusion: Captain Parker's has the best clam chowder but Skipper has higher quality seafood dishes overall.)
Review 22：at check in we were handed several papers to sign and the process was very awkward compared to a traditional check in at a hotel.
Review 23：perfect location on the private beach. Loved the beach volleyball right next door. The rooms seemed to be updated recently. Really nice shower!
Review 24：It is amazing to be on the Cape when so few others are there. We literally walked the beach by ourselves - just stepped off the property and onto the beach! Heavenly!
Review 25：Breakfast items could be bought but were packaged , not great . in room coffee was not good ..
Review 26：We liked the room and the kitchen . It had a living room and bed room 2 tv's. Very clean good bed nice staff and service . View of the water from every room . A very nice set up . Indoor pool and spa. private beach aria .
Review 27：We could hear exactly what the guests upstairs were doing. So get a room on the upper level if you want to ensure peace. Check in at 4pm and check out at 10am is on the short side compared to other hotels
Review 28：Excellent location on the beach Great rooms, well equipped and very clean. WiFi incredibly fast. Comfortable bed but I like firm beds. Parking available free of charge but just for one car per room.
Review 29：Additional costs to upgrade room because the Ocean View on the first floor was a parking lot. I really wanted a true Ocean View. No elevators. Bike trail was 5 to 6 miles away.
Review 30：Being near the ocean.
Review 31：The rooms were very clean and updated. Staff was very friendly. The beach was awesome. We had such a good experience here that we have decided to make this an every year retreat with friends and family.
Review 32：The walls and ceiling have no sound protection. We could hear someone banging stuff around above us. There was a couple next door that argued all night and we could hear almost everything. Very annoying at 11 PM.
Review 33：The room was nice and clean. The location is great and the kids loved the pool.
Review 34：Being midcape and on the beach let me spend as much time on the beach as I wanted and I was also minutes away from Chatham and the seals, bike paths, and other beaches. The room itself was outstanding. The kitchen had silverware, plates, coffee filters, and cups. It was great to eat my breakfast on the bench overlooking the ocean.
Review 35：The common areas were satisfactory, the pool area was not the cleanest, the patio area was never washed down or the stairs swept and the trash recepticles were dirty at best
Review 36：I loved the location of the room which overlooked the ocean as well as the balcony they had for each room. the rooms we notably refurbished and very comfortable. Noteworthy was the fact that the hotel attempted to overcharge me with their new rates but I called Booking.com and they resolved it as well as securing me a better room with the great view. Bookiings certainly came through
Review 37：The resorts next to ours offered their guests beach chairs and umbrellas. We asked to bring the pool chairs down to the beach and were told no. That would have been an added luxury. The staff at the front desk on check in was not friendly.
Review 38：The location- the price- and that you walked out the door onto the beach.
Review 39：No outside access directly to/from the room. The one indoor corridor ..at least on the first floor... is so narrow that 2 people cannot walk side by side. Makes it difficult with luggage and housekeeping carts in the hall. The room "balcony" was more of a decoration than a useful area...really just a step-out area for 1...(maybe 2?) person(s) to check the weather. The bed mattress wasn't too comfortable..felt like stiff foam but I got used to it and slept okay. My husband didn't seem to mind. Was surprised that with all the updates done that there was no safe in the room. Pretty pricey but in line with most of the other hotels on the beach.
Review 40：Can't beat the location and beautiful view of the ocean! The staff was attentive and friendly. Minor issues, coffee pot didn't work and the TV remote didn't always work, were fixed promptly. Great activity room for kids. Picturesque deck overlooking the ocean. King size bed came with the one BR suite. Room always smelled fresh and clean. Beautiful room with up-to-date decor. Loved the "private" patio because I do smoke and enjoy my morning coffee and cigarette first thing in the morning. I can't be the only smoker that appreciates not having to look bedraggle amidst the company of others! Overall great experience!
Review 41：Rooms overlook a parking lot, with a glimpse of the sea beyond. The beach is very small, just the width of the hotel. The AC is located in one end of the room, so if you're planning to use the sofa bed for kids or other guests with the pocket doors closed to separate sleeping spaces (sounds fantastic in principle), be prepared for one part of the room to be freezing and the other hot. The rooms are advertised as soundproof, but kids in the room above us disproved this claim quite well.
Review 42：The bed was comfortable and the room spacious.
Review 43：Nothing

Review 88：Narrow hall way wifi was down for a day

Review 90：when you close the pocket door to bed room, the air conditioning didnot get to the bedroom. Its only a issue when people sleep on the pull out sofa.
Review 91：right on the beach nice living area next to bed room. nice heated pool right on the beach glass enclosed.
Review 92：Ads lie - there are no hot tubs in the rooms but promotion even liststhem on the reservation. There is the world's tiniest swimming pool--asa lap swimmer, I had looked at the web site, and thought the pool lookedample. It was not.Front desk was not well informed about the area. Didn't know of a very good restaurant just a half a mile down the road. Rarely does a reception desk employee look up, smile or say hello when you go by the desk, headed in or out. The walk from our room (second floor over reception area) to the pool was very long, and the layout is extremely unattractive any way you look at it.
Review 93：Suites were comfortable. It was quiet. Beach is handy.
Review 94：The walls really are paper thin and you can hear talking in the other rooms. This wasn't really an issue except when the room next to us was getting ready to check out. There were a lot of people talking and it woke me up. The only other negative is that check out is really early - 10:00 AM.
Review 95：You really can't beat the location since it's right on the beach. Our room was very clean and spacious, like previous reviews have stated. We were on the second floor and had a great view of the water.We found out some rooms have a stove top in them, but all rooms have a mini fridge, sink, microwave, and dishes. We used the communal kitchen to cook dinner and they have three outdoor grills that guests can use. Overall, a very nice and relaxing stay.
Review 96：Noticed some coffee that had not been cleaned up off nightstand andfloor from previous renter.
Review 97：The rooms were very nicely set up. Very nice decor and it was veryquiet compared to some other hotels where the walls are thin and it isvery noisy.
Review 98：The pool is misrepresented: it is indeed a very small and notparticularly clean pool. The staff is a little "abrupt" in theirattitude, not very welcoming. Rooms are generic, view of the parkinglot, very small and not convenient (via corridor) exit to a smalloutside area. Lots of smokers smoking on balconies, and loud people. Notrelaxing. We had to turn on the fan not to hear the neighbors.
Review 99：Location on the beach
Review 100：10 am check out!!! 11 am would be perfect.
Review 101：Beautifully decorated room. Great amenities... With wonderful view andprivate beach. I will return as soon as possible!
Review 102：Only challenge I had was room walls quite thin so could hear my neighbours. I was woken at 7am because they were on the phone. But it didn't effect my stay at all.
Review 103：I liked the private beach and the view. I was staying out of season so was quite which was what I wanted. It is part of a timeshare/rental business so there are people who come back a lot.
Review 104：Exceeded our expectations as far as comfort and location. Breakfast wasa joke. To charge $1.50 each for packaged pastry is a new low. We wentoff-site for real food.
Review 105：No balcony in our unit
