My family has been going there for 10 years but this year it wasn't the same. The little grill by the pool changed owners... huge price increase with a decline in quality. The room was nice but mold on the bathroom ceiling made us a little worried. The bed spreads were smelly... I don't think we'll ever go Beck. read more

Sand Pebble Motor Lodge - Mild on bathroom ceiling. Made us all very nervous - Hotels Near Me - Point Pleasant Beach, New Jersey

Our room was extremely clean and tidy. Staff was nice and accommodating. We stayed in the mini suite which was perfect for 2 adults and 3 children. Only a 1-2 minute walk to the beach/boardwalk/mini golf. The pool is a nice size and there is a grill that's opened at the pool which is very convenient for breakfast/lunch/ice cream. Plenty of parking spots too no matter where your room is located. Would definitely recommend and will be staying again in the future. read more

In the time of COVID you would think businesses would be more accommodating, understanding and be more eager to work with the public to increase revenue. Not Sand Pebble. This hotel will never get my business or that of my family and friends due to their horrible handling of our situation. BUYER BEWARE. Unfortunately, one after another my whole family, like dominos, fell ill with and we were forced to cancel our booking. I cancelled online 9 days in advance of the reservation. Since I was one day shy of the free cancellation window, I immediately called the hotel to explain our situation in hopes of not losing hundreds of dollars. The gentleman on the phone had zero empathy and said there's nothing the hotel can do because the policy is set by hotels.com. He advised I call and work it out with them. Hotels.com said they would absolutely try to help me and said they would contact the hotel to see if they can work it out, possibly give us a credit to use another weekend. Nope. The hotel still said NO. I called twice more to the hotel trying to speak to a manager or person in charge. They gentleman refused to tell me who ran the business and simply reiterated there's nothing they can do. In the end, I was charged more than $400 for a room my family never was able to use. If they were accommodating we would have rebooked for 2 nights. They would have made an additional couple hundred bucks from us but instead, I am left to resort to a poor review of their customer service. Do better, Sand Pebble. read more

We stayed here from Friday to Monday if Labor Day weekend, and we really liked the place. They are doing their best with covid (housekeeping empties trash and re-supplies soaps and towels every day; room completely cleaned in between guests, which was fine). It's an older place but they seem to work hard to keep it clean and updated. The pool area was very nice! They have a snack bar, run by Fran and Joe, at the pool from 7-3; it was great. Such friendly people and really great breakfast and lunch sandwiches. We could tell that a lot of people go there every year (one lady said she'd been going there for 30 years) and we could see why. Yes it's a motor lodge, not a fancy hotel, but it was very nice and I wouldn't hesitate to go again, especially for a sausage egg and cheese on a delicious roll for breakfast!! read more

This is an exceptionally clean and well-run beach motel. I have not yet found the same quality for this price, anywhere on the Jersey shore. read more

This place is perfect. Your right by the best part of the boardwalk and they have a great pool area! The beds were really comfy, the rooms were so clean, and the staff was super nice. We definitely are coming back to this place again. read more

Sand Pebble Motor Lodge - Hotels Near Me - Point Pleasant Beach, New Jersey

Nice little place to stay. We would consider staying here again. The bed was very comfortable but the pillows were really flat. They have a nice little pool area. It is very convenient to the boardwalk and beach. The staff were friendly and housekeeping knocked on your door in the morning to see if you needed anything. Due to Covid they were only making up rooms upon request. read more

We were really happy with our accommodations. We were there for a long awaited family vacation. Comfortable, clean, and a nice staff. Great discount to Jenkinsons beach. Close to beach, dining, and attractions. Nice pool with a fabulous food shack. We will be back!!! Only complaint, WiFi is lacking a bit, but who cares when you have fresh air and the beach!! read more

See all

We had a lovely stay at the Sand Pebble Motor Lodge! (visited 6/24-6/26) This motor lodge has a very old fashion atmosphere, but in the best way! I enjoyed the outdated look/feel, especially by the pool. Everything was freshly painted and clean. The pool was great - very clean and enough lounge chairs for everyone. The water was clean and at the perfect temperature. Open 9am-9pm. Everyone who stays get a parking spot. We were lucky enough to always get the spot right in front of our room. I stayed here with three other friends. All four of us fit comfortably in the double beds. The rooms were nothing to brag about, but everything was nice and clean. The location is perfect - a block or two away from the boardwalk. They offer a discount beach pass for Jenkins Beach. When you first enter the boardwalk the first 3-4 beach entrances are for Risden Beach so just keep walking until you reach the first blue umbrella for the Jenkins Beach entrance. Overall and awesome stay and I would come back! read more

We stayed from June 10-12 2014. It seemed like we had the place to ourselves and that was nice. Marilyn at the office was professional and courteous and welcoming. The grounds were clean and so was the room. We were across the pool so it was a great location. I was happy with the size of the room, the powerful A/C, and the TV. There was an information sheet in the room with helpful info and house rules. The only downside I could see is the cool pool water. We inquired if it was heated at the time and we were told it was, but perhaps the weather was affecting the temperature as well (the environmental temperature was in the 60s most of our visit). Thank you for a good stay for our very first time in Point Pleasant! read more

Conveniently close to amenities and a 2 minute walk to the beach. Room was spotless and desk staff very friendly and helpful. Sadly the negatives outweighed the positives. Bathroom setup very strange with sink outside of the actual bathroom. Very inconvenient if other people are sleeping and you need to turn on the (very bright) light over the sink. Water pressure in shower was AWFUL. Heater worked fine but was very noisy. read more

As my son said, this place exceeded my expectations. It is your typical jersey shore motel , but it is immaculate, the AC worked great, the water pressure would knock your socks off, the pool was sparkling, and the home cooked breakfast and lunch beat anything you would get on the Boardwalk. The boardwalk, by the way, is just a quick walk. And Jenkinsons and the amusements less than a half mile. And 3 dollar beach passes? !!!!I would definitely recommend it. It's not luxury, but then again this is The Jersey Shore not the Hamptons..and it's affordable. Oh and the wifi, I had no problem using my iPad or iPhone, but my sons laptop didn't always stay connected. I did get kicked off now and then, but if you're online that long, you shouldn't be on vacation. read more

Overall clean and comfortable enough, although I think I found some hairs in a towel that did not belong to me or my companion, there was a beer cap behind the nightstand, and nail polish adorning various furnishings. The pool is nice and well maintained. The office gave us passes to go to a beach a few blocks down for half-price ($4 instead of $8). In terms of location, pretty great, just a few blocks down from the boardwalk and walkable to plenty of restaurants, etc. read more

My family and I stayed at Sand Pebble Motor Lodge from 7/13/18-7/15/18. Overall, we had a good time. The room seemed clean but I didn't like the fact that there was carpet. Check in and out was quick and easy. Parking was a plus. The pool was very clean and the little poolside food station was awesome. This place is in the perfect location. We were able to quickly walk back to our room if we needed to drop off boardwalk prizes and such. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it. read more

Always a great stay. Seconds from the boardwalk action and the beach. Very kid friendly and family oriented. We keep coming back every year.

LOCATION! LOCATION! LOCATION! I live in Point Peasant Beach and had to stay at a motel for a few day because my apartment was being painted and new carpet. First I could have stayed at any motel in town but i pick the Sand Pebble over all of them. The Sand Pebble is close to everything and it is across the street from the boardwalk and beach. It has a great pool and smack bar and the whole place is friendly, quite and clean. The maids always have a smile on their faces (something I really like) and after they are done cleaning the room is spotless. I could go on and on but I think you know that I really like the place and will always stay here when I need too. YOU WILL LOVE IT!!! read more

I will start off by saying that the woman (Marilyn) who worked at the front desk was very pleasant and helpful. Unfortunately, that is the only good thing I can say about this place. We stayed in a one queen bed room. At first glance, it appeared clean and suitable for a weekend at the beach. After getting settled in, my husband and I noticed a few things terribly wrong with this room as listed below. 1- It appeared that the TV, which was a flat screen attached to the wall with the wires hanging, had not been dusted in over a month. 2- The dresser drawers were dirty! One had dust and pieces of paper and nastiness in it while the other had a large black sticky spot that would not come up along with dust and pieces of paper. Please note there were only two drawers on the dresser along with one desk and one nightstand. 3- A dirty, used towel was left balled up under the edge of the bed. 4- There was no bed skirt/sheet/protective cover on the box spring. 5- The in room phone was disgusting. It has piles of dirt in the corners and crevices and on the ear piece. The message waiting light also constantly blinked in and out even though there was no message. I used some wipes to clean the phone as best as I could before touching it. 6- The handles for the sink and tub along with the plastic shower curtain tension rod were also disgusting. They have black mold/mildew all around the edges and are in desperate need of cleaning. The shower curtain was also yellowed at the bottom and the liner needed a desperate cleaning as it had nasty moldy spots in the creases and the corners. 7-The extra blanket was sticky and stained along one edge. I threw this blanket on the floor to be replaced but it appeared to have been folded and put back unless all of their blankets are stained and sticky. 8- There was no clock in the room. 9- There was no closet just a rack attached to the wall. 10- There was no luggage rack. 11- There was only one night stand 12- There were no blinds on the front window. It only had a curtain that couldn't be left open since it was facing the street and people constantly walked by on the sidewalk in front of the window and looked in. 13- There was minimal lighting. One small overhead and two lamps. None of which provided much light. The room was dark and you couldn't open the curtains unless you wanted to provide a free show for the passersby. 14- There was no " Do not disturb" door sign. As there was no safe in the room, i did not want the "cleaning" personnel to come in but there was no way to notify them of this. 15- The top lock on the door did not work from the outside. My husband and I stayed the two allotted nights with improvises such as wiping every surface with disinfectant and laying towels in the drawers. The towels and sheets were white and clearly clean so we at least had them as a saving grace. Overall, I would not stay here and I would not recommend this place to anyone. I really wish I could say that they won me over with the kindness of the staff but sometimes that just isn't enough. read more

My family and I have been staying here for close to 20 years. The snack stand that offers breakfast and lunch to people staying at the hotel is unbeatable. The stance stand owners are nice and always accommodating. The rooms are spacious and very clean. The staff is always nice and looking to make sure you have a great stay. Highly recommended place to stay. read more

This place was fantastic. It's right off the boardwalk and right there near everything. Everyone was so nice ! It's simple but a great place to stay ! Will definitely be back! read more

Family-friendly vacation spot located a short 1/2 block from the ocean & boardwalk! Neat & clean, rooms or apartment style accommodations, Sandpebble is well maintained.

Joe & Fran are great, offering great food, coffee & cold drinks, (VERY reasonable) 7am-4pm, 7 days a week Memorial day to Labor day (Holidays only you can get their famous meatball sandwiches!) read more

We have been staying at this hotel for 35 years which in itself says a lot for this place.We have never been disappointed in our stay here. The rooms are clean and the heated pool is always immaculate as are the grounds. Tony G the owner never lets things get run down or old because he does an overhaul of something every year (for example one year it may be a new pool liner, the next year all new flat screen tvs or brand new carpeting) This year it was new bed spreads and new chaise lounge cushions. Tony G once said to me " no ones gonna complain about a place because it's too clean " and his place has been spic and span clean since we've been coming here.At the front desk we have a gem in Marilyn who I have known for 20 years. Marilyn is efficient and has gotten my reservations right every time. On top of that she's a real sweetheart. One request for next year please get rid of Comcast cable so I can watch my Yankee games. read more
