What guests say
8.1 / 10 · Very good on Booking.com, from 123 guest reviews
Wave Resort earns consistent praise for its unbeatable beachfront location, clean and modern rooms with ocean views, and generally friendly staff — making it a repeat destination for many guests. However, a recurring theme is that pricing feels hard to justify given complaints about poor pool management, limited and low-quality dining options, unexpected valet fees, and service that can be inconsistent. Guests seeking a relaxed, well-located seaside stay will likely enjoy it, but those expecting full luxury resort amenities may leave underwhelmed.
