What guests say

8.8 / 10 · Very good on Booking.com, from 355 guest reviews

Location & beach access · 9Staff friendliness & helpfulness · 7Cleanliness · 4Pool, hot tubs & amenities · 4Breakfast quality · 3

Tamarack Beach Hotel earns strong, repeat loyalty — multiple guests mention returning year after year — driven by its unbeatable beachfront location, clean rooms with ocean views, and genuinely friendly staff. Minor frustrations surface around pricing, tight parking, noisy AC, road noise in some rooms, and facilities that feel slightly dated. Overall sentiment is overwhelmingly positive, with complaints more of the 'minor inconvenience' variety than deal-breakers.
