Provider-sourced guest reviews.
Location, the bed was comfortable. The view was stunning and the tub was relaxing.
The guest in the room next door were loud and were in and out constantly from midnight till 3am
Easy in easy out loved the balcony
Mattress was a little to firm
The location was great the property was beautiful.
The room we stayed in was small. We got a king spa suite, but the jacuzzi tub was not clean, and there was no curtain or anything over the window, which was in the shower. I asked a woman in the hallway who was cleaning if she had a towel or blinds we could put over the window since the window is in the shower; she said she didn't speak English and giggled. The hallways were very small, so carrying everything to the room was a little bit of a struggle, especially with a 2-month-old. I don't want to bad-talk this place; it was a piece of paradise for sure, but I think my expectations were a little higher than reality.
It was clean and comfortable. The View was exceptionally calming.
I did not like the fact that the internet was out, also a blind was missing in the window to the shower and bathtub. As we were two women I thought that that needed to be addressed, but it remained uncovered throughout the entire visit.

Das Zimmer war sehr groß und hatte einen tollen Blick aufs Wasser. Das Bett war sehr bequem,die Klima leise. Wir haben den Aufenthalt genossen und am Abend den Sternenhimmel auf dem Balkon angeschaut.
Alles war super.
The property was just beautiful and peaceful! We had a room with a balcony that over looked the grounds and the view of the marsh!
There was nothing that I didn’t like
I Loved Everything about this Beautiful Place!
Nothing!
Two nice small pools on ground level in the back. Very clean building. Good price for this area
Room was next to lobby and not very soundproof at all. However, fortunately, it is a smaller hotel and not a lot of people going into the lobby. Sometimes I could hear every word back and forth from conversations of other guests either from parking lot, lobby, or other room. Again, fortunately, other guests mostly behaved and were not rowdy.
The place is nice secluded just enough but close to stuff
The pool was dirty and the place is a bit dilapidated needs some tlc
My shower never had hot water at all and through the two days that I was there I tried several different times of the day they need to replace their hot water heater. I told the front desk about it on the first day that I was there and they told me they would issue me a refund and I haven't gotten it yet. My room said it would have a balcony and it did but it was about as big enough for one person to get on and it was on the corner. There is no food or breakfast here they do not have any food on the property whatsoever. Also there is no beach access you have to get in the car and drive down the road to get to the beach they do not have beach access that belongs to the hotel. The hot tub side of the swimming pool is exactly that a swimming pool it never got warm and when you turn the Jets and the blowers on that's exactly all you get and it's blowing and swimming pool water. The parking lot is extremely small. I would go ahead and say compact cars only really. They have a huge beautiful dock that face is the river but they tell you you can't fish so I'm not sure what the world the dock is for. It would be a great place for a marina. The only thing I was impressed with is how old the property looked I thought that it was historical and when I looked it up it was built in the early 2000s so it wasn't even historical it just looks historic. This baby right here is kind of like fool's Gold.
It has 2 pools and the rooms were nice. The bed was very soft.
Although the property is across the street from the beach the only access is over a half a mile away and the parking was full.
No breakfast served, only cartons of milk, water and coffee. The advertisement said room did include breakfast so that was disappointing.
Our room was so comfortable. We did not want to leave. And the young lady that treated us upon arrival. She was very kind, and helpful.
Not having access to their pool.
The rooms were beautiful and very clean and I like the historic look
I feel it needs to be just a little more smoke friendly I think you should be able to smoke on your own balcony and I think each room should have it’s own microwave and clear out some of the brush in the back
Nothing really. Photos are very misleading. The parking lot is extremely small. Our room must’ve been the smallest. It’s giving remodeled large house made into a glorified hostel.
Our room was very small and hot. Our bathroom had one window with no cover at all, facing the road. The bed made so much noise the minute you sat on it.
Location away from tourist traffic. Nice room, comfortable bed
Not much in the way of amenities, really
the check in was easy our balcony over looked the lagoon there are no screens on the doors and the windows do not open the air conditioner worked fine there is no immediate access to the ocean from this location however, a few miles down the road heading east was a nice park were we watched the sunrise the jackuzzi worked well
no open windows
It was quaint and nice.
The place needs to have some attention to detail. Also the listing says its within walking distance to the sights and its 8+ miles to anything. The road noise was so disturbing trying to sleep. Hot water didn't work the first night but they finally fixed it the 2nd night.
location and price value
Room tight with oversized furniture, I will stay again but on the top floor.
The location and price was great. It is a beautiful property and it has so much potential. Small hotel vibes. Easy parking. Code entry made it easy to come and go without a key or a key card. Clean fresh feel throughout.
Seemed like the walls were thin by the sound from others walking by, talking, you can hear people in their rooms. Families with small children can get a little loud. Sound travels when there is no carpet to help with muffling out regular everyday noise. The shower had no cover over one window which one could clearly see the neighboring property and likewise. The bed was a thick foam mattress, unfortunately you can tell where everyone settles in at. Breakfast? I think just coffee and water.
Frequent guests . Love Bliss by the Sea. Clean, friendly staff and most of all GREAT PRICE.
Furnishings were Asian and lovely. Nice views and 100 yards to beach across main road. Staff super freindly. Breakfast was good.
Checking in was easy, We arrived late but it was a phone call to get access.
The only complaint is the bed was extremely squeaky. Everytime I loved it made what seemed the loudest creak.
Clean and its location to center city and the beach.
The terrace partitions between the rooms were very cheap and badly need of repair.
Good location
Mattress needed upgrade
Beautiful room and lobby plus the grounds outside and deck going to the intercoastal waterway area are beautiful . Bed was extremely comfortable. Room was clean. Nice thick towels and washcloths provided. Feather pillows were amazing. Shower was awesome once I figured it out by watching the video. Suggestion: would be nice to provide a bath robe for guests.
Rooms very un-soundproof. Felt like I had to keep my TV at volume I could barely hear so as not to disturb other guests as per the contract stated a 250.00 fine for noise, even noise coming from room. Could hear normal conversations coming from other people's rooms from the hallway. The ice machine had only enough ice to barely get 1/4th of my ice bucket filled. No breakfast nor any snacks or drinks available for purchase at the property. Bring your own, buy before you check-in as the only store close is a circle k gas station. Coffee only available after 8am, none available at night.
Bed was comfortable big tub balcony and pier overlooking the sound. Great restaurant next door but its closed on monday and Tuesday.
Breakfast is no longer provided. Two small pools mostly in the shade. Elevator felt like it was gonna fail but didn't.
The location was nice. Right next door to a restaurant. Beautiful view behind of the bay.
Room was not clean, they had water in the lobby but it wasn’t cold. Walls are paper thin and you could hear absolutely everything. Coffee was terrible.
Great location
Nice but room # 8 had a foul sewer smell
Gorgeous. Helpful staff on phone. Delicious coffee.
Tight room, bathroom, short toilet, super high bed. Keypads were not lit.
The property is nice and located in a quiet area. Liked walking to the boat dock.
Loud people! No hot water! Parking is tight. Nothing inside the rooms for simple accommodations! No chairs or table in the room. Bed was very uncomfortable. Need to accommodate these things for what is charged to stay here!
Very clean, staff friendly
Walls are thin and neighbors doors slamming
Everything. It was so nice and easy to get answers.
Lovely rooms and nice pool
Thought the beach was just across the road but only access is a mile down the road
Convenient, Clean,
A little noisy near the road.
Nice place to stay. I would book again.
A couple of minor issues, but staff addressed concerns promptly.
Beautiful property very quiet
The Internet went out during a slight storm therefore there was no TV or back up plan also the weather was cold and the only 2 amenities which are the jacuzzi pools weren’t heated so they were of no use @ $200 a night there should’ve been something to enjoy. Also staff shouldn’t go thru your belongings until they’ve verified you’ve completely checked out
The view!!!!!!
Being on the 3rd floor, the penthouse guests (children) we very loud! People up at 6:30am stomping around while you’re on a getaway is never fun.
Great location. Love the artistry designs of each room. The bed was very comfortable. And keyless access was a plus.
Heard noises throughout the night that kept me awake.
Great
Access to the thermostat soon enough or at the beginning of stay
Quiet, clean, and lovely decor. The common area on the main floor is beautiful and relaxing! I also loved the private boardwalk to the water. There is also a great, casual seafood restaurant next door. Amazing staff, and the digital check-in was seamless!
Nothing 😊

The breakfast could definitely be a 100% better. The first time I had breakfast was Saturday morning and there were 2 bagels in there. I had one and my fiance the following morning, there were no bagels. I'd like to see a little bit more fruit or at least cereal boxes. And the scones were amazing. More of pastries.
Breakfast could be better
Good
Location
Shower head was broken off the wall could not take a proper shower
The property was easy to find with plenty of parking, a clean room, nicely done bathroom, and perfect for a short stay. It was nice that there was an elevator, electronic access, and contactless check-in/access to the facility.
The balcony should not be included in the listing as it is more of an opening to a ledge and there is no seating. The doors to the room stick, so it can be loud as you are coming and going. The doors/walls are also fairly thin, so it is easy to hear others throughout the space. The breakfast included is also fairly limited and more of like a morning snack.
Room size and bed comfortable
Breakfast was not up to much, no sleep at night due to occupancy above dragging chairs and moving around upstairs
The sheets were like plastic. I was glad I brought my own bedding.
The environment, being able to come and go and not hardly see anyone, privacy, decor, staff, and housekeeping.
The hot tub was never on, for two days to overwhelming smell of marijuana.
Loved the location
Would have rather had a srand up shower vs a in room jacuzzi that doubled as a shower
It was all amazing!!! I enjoyed the pools the bed, everything was amazing!!! I will be coming back
Didn’t have any complaints about the property at all.
No there was no food prepared on site. The continental breakfast foods offered we're very good. Easy access to everything including check-in. Beautiful location.
The mattress felt worn out and the room was very very small.
Breakfast was awesome. My only complaint was the beds and sheets. Very uncomfortable
Beds
My Fiance and I enjoyed relaxing in both the jacuzzi tub in our private room as well as the pools on the property. The staff was attentive and the communication between guests and staff was exceptional. We enjoyed having contactless check in, as sometimes, this can be a hassle at hotels. We will be coming back!
We wish the bed was not as squeaky and some of the lighting was out in our room. (Ex: the lamp on night stand and one light bulb flickering on ceiling)
Location and price
The noise from the other rooms and the musty smell in the room were noisy
It was not hot water the whole stay in there I’m so unhappy. They said will be a discount still waiting for it.
No hot water couldn’t take a shower
Don’t be fooled by these pictures. No hot water. No heat in our room…. Room 7…. They said they were going to give us a discount and it was submitted through booking. And I never got any credit.
Everything The expectations were set… apologies and said I was going to get a credit which I never received. So then lied …. But Casiley was so nice about it all… don’t trust these people and don’t give them your business
Location
Pretty much needs a make over
Charming room and beautiful property. Very clean. Nice thoughtful touches, like leaving chocolates and making flowers from toilet paper. Good wi-fi.
It would have been more practical to have had a desk instead of a dresser.
Right in between ocean and river. Pretty decor Loved jetted tub and plenty of hot water! Nice big fridge for drinks, etc
All was good
Las habitaciones son grande
El aire no baja hay calor en enero y se escucha todo entre las habitaciones
I like the location and the privacy
Awful customer service, I had no hot water the 3 days I stayed there, I had to pay an alternative location to solve this problem, they said I will be refunded but never happened.
