Awesome Stay
Our hotel stay was absolutely fantastic! The staff was friendly and welcoming, and the entire property was clean and well-kept. We especially loved the pool area—it was relaxing and perfect for unwinding. The pier was another highlight; we spent a lot of time there enjoying the views and fishing. Everything exceeded our expectations. We’ll definitely be coming back and highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a great getaway!
We've been coming to Chincoteague for over 20 years and never have stayed at Waterside Inn before. We had a fabulous trip and loved everything about this hotel. Its a simple place but its clean, friendly and amazing views. Will definitely stay here again.
Walkable to grocery store, cute little shops, great coffeehouses. Quiet, lovely people, nice pool, hot tub! Great view. Close to beach (12 min drive-super easy). Would go over and over again! ThankbYou!
Location was nice. Property was "no smoking" however people were vaping at pool, and on balconies on both sides of us. Didn't receive bed making or fresh towels, had to ask on the 3rd day if they could help, and rec'd an attitude.
Older hotel but very clean, comfortable, and accommodating. Took two of my grandchildren, 1 and 7. They both enjoyed the pool which was very clean and right by the water. We were surprised that the pool was open until 1 am but allowed us do all the activities of town and the. Come back and relax in the pool. It was great!!! Breakfast was okay. No room to sit so we took it back to our room. Choices were limited. Probably would be better if they just did danishes, donuts that are easy to pick up and go.
Rooms have a fabulous view!!!
We have made many trips to the island and plan to return. Will definitely be booking here again when we return.
We had a wonderful time at the Waterside Inn. We enjoyed having our coffee on the balcony every morning and the veiw was great. We even saw a dolphin one morning. Everyone was very friendly and our room was very comfortable and clean. I highly recommend the Waterfront Inn.
The room was satisfactory, however, photos a little deceiving online re: balcony and view.
Thought we would have a total sea view as indicated in room description but were put on the first floor where there were a lot of shrubbery intruding on the view. Not really worth $400 to stay one night. Basically a motel. Breakfast not good - powder eggs.
The beds were extremely comfortable. A little different on room service. You have to ask the day before for scheduled room service. The air conditioning was great. A little outdated but really clean.
