From the second we stepped in the hotel, we knew it was going to be a horrible stay. The people who manage the Sand and Surf are some of the meanest, heartless, inconsiderate people I've ever encountered in a business. 5 minutes after we gave them the ridiculous 750 for the room we attempted to get our money back because... more

It was a great place - secure and family friendly. The owners were helpful and extremely welcoming. more

I have three teens and they had the time of their lives. It is great for a family vacation. I grew up vacationing at the jersey shore... more

We've been going to this motel every year since we discovered it, usually around July 4th. This year we went in September with three other couples and we had a blast! The hotel is on the boardwalk, close to the fishing pier and amusement parks, but not in the center of congestion. The accomodations are clean and are good sized.... more

Three of my best friends and I took a trip from upstate NY to New Jersey. We stayed at the Sand and Surf Motel at 1201 Ocean Terrace right on the boardwalk. The Bowden family runs the motel.
