We stayed here for one night and it was a very nice place. We were close to the beach and they give you beach access tags for each person. The rooms were clean and the bathroom was well stocked. Most hotels don't give nearly enough towels, but we had plenty at the White Whale. We would definitely stay again if... More 

The staff is very friendly and the rooms are very clean. I really enjoyed my stay here at this quirky motel. The back of the white whale is a backyard with plenty of fun things to do like bean bag toss, tether ball and they even have grills and hammocks! Awesome place for families and couples.

Had a very nice stay at the White Whale. This is a comfortable beach motel. We had two rooms for the four (4) of us on the lower level. They were very clean but a little tight. The rooms have been updated and are quite nice inside. The staff were awesome and very accommodating. Since this is a small "beach... More 

We have stayed here several times in suite 201 ( Bayview suite.) We just returned from a week long stay and this is definitely a great value for the size of the space in a great part of the island. The room itself easily accommodated our family of two adults and two children. (We have stayed before with four adults... More 

We stayed over 4th of July weekend. We checked in late so the owner was kind enough to give us a key code to get in. Being that it was a holiday weekend, it was costly for what you got. The room was wicked small, like opening the door just misses hitting the bed by an inch. We also found... More 

Very clean. The people are friendly. The shades aren't room darkening which could be a problem for some people. Nothing fancy - it's a beach town after all - but it's pleasant and bright. In the back there are hammocks, tetherball, grill, etc. We've come here a few years in a row and always have a positive experience. There is... More 

The people who worked here were super nice and very, very hospitable. I recommend getting a room on the back of the hotel because it faces a really nice back yard complete with chairs, hammocks, and yard games. We checked out at 11, but the owner let us keep the beach tags for a couple extra hours and let us... More 

I enjoy offering unbiased reviews so here goes.... Pros: Allowed me 2 nights stay on July 4th weekend where other motels required a 3-4 night stay, very nice staff, great location, new frig, new microwave, flat screen tv, free wi-fi, the gorgeous, expansive beach is down the block, two chairs outside on deck to sit on. The motel will give... More 

Where do I start? Let me just say that this superseded my expectations of where to stay on LBI. I never actually met the owner, but he has the most sophisticated way to check in guests. Each door has a combination - he programs it from a remote location and after the credit card is authorized, the guest gets the... More
