What guests say
9 / 10 · Wonderful on Booking.com, from 262 guest reviews
Buoy 16 Motel earns consistently strong praise for its unbeatable boardwalk-and-beach location, clean rooms, and warm, accommodating staff. However, guests note the rooms are quite basic, and a handful flagged specific issues such as poor hot water, worn carpeting, and a tricky TV setup. Those willing to adjust expectations away from franchise-style amenities tend to leave very satisfied.
