We've gone back to this resort the last three years. Obviously we loved it the first time and it only keeps getting better. The rooms aren't anything special and. Provide you with a good nights sleep and lots of room. But this resort isn't about the rooms. It's about the view from your porch or balcony (beautiful ocean views). It's... More

We chose this hotel because of the location in Cape Cod and expected a little more. This is an older hotel but it is on the beach and our room had a small balcony with an ocean view. There are no restaurants (other than the hotel restaurant) or shopping areas within walking distance. The room did smell very musty and... More

We have been going to this resort for over 20 years. It is a great place to stay on the Cape. The rooms and facilities are clean and spacious. The resort is removed from the busier roads but close enough to everything-mini golf, restaurants, ice cream, bike trails, etc. They have a beautiful beach with waitress service and umbrella set-up,...

Last year, a friend and I decided to go to the Cape for Labor Day weekend. It was a last minute decision and we booked a room here largely because many other places were full. We ended up having a great time and decided to make it a yearly tradition. This year was a complete let down. The staff was... More

This resort was a major disappointment for us. The pictures on hotels.com made it look so much nicer than it actually was. After checking in we went to the room which smelled moldy and was very dark. I tried to open the window, but it wouldn't budge. We had to rely on the extremely loud air conditioning unit to keep... More

Thank you for your stay and we certainly are glad you enjoyed our ocean front property. I have looked closely at all our interiors and found no rooms to have any mold in them whatsoever. I do agree that a few of our rooms are dark and we will look at how to make them lighter and to potentially re-... More

For what we spent on this room, I expected at least a clean place for my family to sleep. We dealt with a leaking bathroom ceiling, a great deal of noise from our upstairs neighbors, a few random dead bugs on the wall and linens that weren't changed for three nights, despite the fact that my 1 year old had...

The review has allowed me to look at what we offer and try and compare the many items we do offer here to any one of our competitors locally. In our opinion we rise above them clearly. However it is important for us to hear opinions of our guests and try and look at each one to see if improvements... More

Summary: This is anything but a resort. This is an under-staffed, over-priced motor-inn with a great beach. My wife and I booked two nights at the Riveria Beach Resort during the last week of August based on reviewing the hotel's website. Based on the posted photos, we thought this would be a perfect, peaceful, and relaxing getaway to celebrate our... More

We booked this hotel on hotels.com. The price was nearly $300 a night, after taxes and resort fees. This was a real splurge for us, but we thought it would be nice vis a vis the beach and pool. The beach was beautiful, no problems there. We are no strangers to staying in average accommodations in Cape Cod (after years... More

I have to say that after reading some of the previous reviews I expected to see the rooms run down a bit. I wanted to stay because of the location. I wanted to be right on the beach which is what this hotel offers. I originally booked a room poolside on the second floor. The staff at check in noticed... More
