  Not a resort for the older generation…

  13 May 2026

  There were 3 things I was not told when I booked this hotel, which btw, was non refundable (my suggestion to anyone who books is the pay the extra fee so you can get out of the reservation, or cancel if the weather is bad). The first disappointment was that the movies offered on the tv were not set up to be ordered yet…luckily, after some time of figuring it out with our children involved, we were able to stream Netflix from our phone. Next, I was told the hotel offered valet parking when I called to ask…I was not told how expensive a shot I would take. This hotel gouges where it can. A very expensive per night room charge of should include parking. Side note: it took me 5 times calling to reach the Spa to make an appointment. I then decided I would not give this hotel one more dime of my money, so I chose not to book at the spa. Lastly, a note was placed on our door the day of checkout (thank God we were checking out) that painters needed to access the rooms on our floor during the day. If we had been staying another day, I would have been SO angry. The hotel is run by children with no respect for elders, and what felt like distain for anyone over 30 who dared to seek accommodation. A complete disappointment, and there is zero chance I would ever waste my money here again. General Manager, General Manager at Wave Resort, responded to this review Thank you for your recent feedback. We are truly sorry to hear your stay left you feeling so frustrated and disappointed, especially when you were hoping for a relaxing getaway with your family. Guest feedback is always appreciated, and we would welcome the opportunity to learn more about your experience if you would like to discuss it directly with us at mwood@waveresort.com.Kind Regards,Megan Wood

  Sleek and chic, with awesome ocean views

  24 Mar 2026

  There are two hotels in Long Branch with rooms facing the ocean and the Wave Resort is the newer, sleek and chic modern one. Very inviting large lobby, with comfortable sofas and chairs. Rooms are immaculate , with a comfy bed and a large bathroom in the suites. Megan at front desk was superb and made our stay special - very knowledgeable, professional and friendly with definitely a can- do attitude - kudos to Megan who was as enthusiastic as we were about making our stay wonderful ; she went above and beyond. As is to be expected, no hotel of this quality will ever be a bargain , even out of season, so it’s not a place to stay if you are on a very limited budget. Valet parking adds another uptick to the price . It’s ocean front and very sleek , with an industrial style vibe to it. It has a spa, a bar, a restaurant as well as a bagel place right on the premises . (A stone’s throw away Is a high- end kosher steakhouse called Salt, and next to that is a kosher take- out place). The large suites have a wrap around balcony with direct ocean views. Plentiful eateries in Pier Village from pricey to very affordable , like a Turning Point franchise ( terrific and very popular for breakfast or lunch) as well as a 7-11 convenience store, and apparel shops as well as a bookstore, a Starbucks —and more. Never stayed here in the summer when rates are even higher; probably difficult to get reservations unless you book way in advance . If you love the calm and tranquility of being at the ocean, off- season is the best time to go.. Always lots to see and do even off- season, including theatre productions at New Jersey Repertory. Long Branch is a very special place at the Jersey shore, as is this hotel.We would definitely stay here again! A suggestion to the management so the review can go from 4 stars to 5: always be sure that the front desk is manned. — when it wasn’t one evening, no one answered the front desk phone for over 30 minutes. General Manager, General Manager at Wave Resort, responded to this review Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed review of your stay with us at Wave Resort. It’s wonderful to hear how much you enjoyed the overall atmosphere, from our inviting lobby to the comfort and design of your accommodations, and that Megan made such a lasting impression with her attentive and engaging service. Having the ocean just steps away, along with everything nearby in Pier Village, often adds to that sense of a relaxing and memorable getaway, and it’s great to know that this stood out during your visit. At the same time, it’s concerning to hear about the lack of coverage at our front desk and the delay in reaching someone, as timely support is an important part of the experience. Your feedback is appreciated and will be reviewed with our team as we continue working to improve service consistency. We look forward to welcoming you back to our resort for another enjoyable stay along the shore.Kind Regards,Megan Wood
