Just got back from my most recent visit to The Blockade Runner - this time to fulfill my 91 year old mother's wish to go to the beach. Everything and everyone at the hotel lived up to its commitment to customer service and making one's stay easy and memorable. I can't say enough about the kind assistance we received in... more

My boyfriend and I just got back from spending 2 nights at the Blockade Runner over Labor Day weekend. We booked The Rendezvous Package that includes 2 nights, a bottle of champagne, chocolate covered strawberries, breakfast both mornings, and dinner for 2 at East for their pre fix menu. I would recommend this package to any couple looking for a... more

The hotel was built in the 60s and, although clean, it shows its age. Bathroom fittings and lifts are definitely from that era. A real turn off was a very strong smell of air freshener which I thought was coming from the ventilation system. Another negative point was a very noisy ventilation system. Even with in-room air conditioning off the... more

When we first arrived my husband and I were in a room that was right in front of the pool on the 2nd floor- we did not want to open the curtains for the sliding glass door b/c everyone at the pool was so close and could see right in our room. Eveything in the room was drab down to... more

We weren't "Wowed" by this place at all, but expected to be based on the photos on their website and the price we paid for the room. Pool is much smaller in person than what it looks like in the photos. There are no balconies in the rooms which is something I personally love at the beach. The lobby and... more

I stayed here with a friend, we were in town for a wedding and wanted to extend the trip & stay near the beach. From the drivers & valets, to the bartenders,waitresses, chambermaids, EVERYBODY was nice, friendly and helpful. Our room was what you would expect for a beach resort in hot, humid weather. We had no problems getting anything... more

The Blockade Runner is a older hotel and you need to keep this in mind when staying there. The rooms are very open and our view of the ocean was amazing. My husband and I were traveling with our 20 year old son and friend. We all like the idea of having the beach right there. I did not like... more

We stayed here for the weekend and will never go back. The room itself looked fairly nice and the location was good but that was about it. The air conditioner was the loudest I have ever heard and there was a light shining in our window all night and just regular drapes~ no blackout backing. Because of about a 3/4... more

Thought this would be a good place to stay but was way wrong. First of all they don't have ice machines-you have to dial "O' to have someone bring you ice, and they don't put ice buckets in your room, and of course they expect a tip each time. Second, they have no parking and only give you one parking... more
