Very clean! The rooms are cozy, and they don't feel like a 'hotel'. They have nice furniture and nice bedding, not generic hotel bedding that most places have. I do wish the bathroom were a little bigger, but all in all it was a great stay and I was very pleased. The bed was very comfortable, I slept great!

Anyone visiting Chincoteague and desires a wonderful and relaxing place to stay, the Refuge Inn is for you. The rooms are spacious, decorated beautiful and I would recommend the rooms over looking the pines. The complementary breakfast each day was outstanding. The front desk help were always cheerful and helpful with any questions or recommendations. An added benefit is their... More

Brought the grand kids. The staff is very friendly, they enjoy the kids and make them feel special. Breakfast is served in the gift shop, good selection for continental breakfast. They have an indoor pool, good break from the sun and the beach. The bike shop looked like it had a great selection of bikes for when they are bit... More

If your'e looking for a quiet and peaceful area, this is your ticket. Our room faced the pony stalls which was nice, especially in the morning, but there is a parking on that side also. Lots of pine trees which add to the scenery. The decor in the rooms are cozy. Tv is old and grainy. Pool is pretty nice.... More

Our stay was May 30-June 1. We chose this hotel because of ratings on Tripadvisor; it was a great choice. The hotel was very clean, and the staff very friendly. The breakfast buffet was very well stocked with: cereal, fruit, yogurt, breads, hard boiled eggs, freshly made waffles (one day), scrambled eggs (the next day). The staff was helpful with... More

The Refuge Inn is a great place to stay in Chincoteague. The staff at the front desk were very friendly and helpful. We had a king deluxe room. The room and bathroom were very clean. The furnishings were high quality and very nice. There was a dehumidifier in the room which made the room very comfortable in spite of very... More

this is a gret hotel with the perfect location for a chincoteague stay. nice swiming pool, perfect little continental breakfast to start your day off right. You can walk to the park or rent bikes to do take to the beach. The staff are really friendly and you feel like they have been waiting for you.

The first thing you notice about the Refuge Inn is that it smells clean - that's because it is clean. We had a very comfortable room and enjoyed a restful sleep (the room seemed well noise-insulated). The breakfast is good with a nice selection- one morning we had hot fresh waffles! The staff is friendly and very knowledgeable about the... More

Great facility with a nice pool. Staff kept our room clean. Great hot breakfast each morning (stayed one week). Had ponies on site and a bike rental place at the entrance, very convenient. They are located close to the bridge crossing to Assateague, so it is easy to rent a bike and be across on the other island quickly! If... More
