El Karma Aqua Beach Resort (ex.Nubia Aqua Beach Resort)

The housekeeping service has gone downhill. Last year I had issues and everyday I had to go to front desk. This year I have had to go to front desk again about room not charged a few times. When I booked I indicated to them the issue last year and was told it wouldn’t happen again. Well it has. . I got back to our room at 3:45 and maids leave at 4. Front desk said someone will come. I was in bathroom when she came and we told her to come back in 15 minutes. Never came back. Guy at front desk said they were on their way. One hour later still nobody. Then I talked to somebody in laundry room who said a girl was coming in at 5 and would clean our room by 5:30. That maid did a great job cleaning wish she was doing daytime. She actually cleaned. Day maid would forget to replace soap, shampoo, etc. Sometimes towels weren’t fully replaced as well. Manager didn’t seem to care about my complains. I should submit I bill to them as at times I cleaned my own room!!

Good: Pool is nice, the 5th floor cabana with hammocks is a nice touch. Hotel is close to the beach and a little walk to the end/start of the boardwalk. Nice pillows and beds. Love having the kitchenette with microwave and fridge. The lobby looks freshly redone (pretty, bright and clean) however the room, on the 4th floor we stayed, in did not reflect that type of recent update. Not so Good: Everything is tight. Parking spaces as well as the walking area to get to your room with the luggage trolley doesn't fit with the white plastic chairs in the way. The hair dryer in our room is cracked (at the part you plug in the wall.) This is probably dangerous. The AC unit is so incredibly loud. There are no black out curtains and the lights are on all night. Our room had a french-fry on the floor long the wall and a candy wrapper under the bed.

It's apparent they are doing the bare minimum for their guests. This place used to have clout. They used to have beach accommodations. And the mold smell everywhere you go is just too much. The pool area doesn't open until 11, so forget a nice morning hot tub before the heat arrives. Then the guests swarm the pool with their little ones overtaking said hot tub. Right under the sign that says "no one under 16 in hot tub". I chose one of their 3 "renovated" rooms. Talk about lipstick on a pig! The mold wasn't remediated, it was covered up, with the cheapest finishes you can find. The floors are never really clean. They just push damp sand around with a mop. And don't let the Do not disturb sign give you a false sense of peace. They just barge in, with or without them. Hard pass.

We really love this hotel - we have stayed there twice (10 years apart ), and we stayed in the same room LOL. The furniture was still the same, BUT we love this hotel nonetheless. The location is perfect; we get a room facing the beach, and the start of the Boardwalk is just steps from the hotel. The staff is wonderful and always attentive. The workers clean the BBQ grill in the pool area, which is quite impressive, as they ensure everything is spotless. The chairs out in the pool area are new and comfortable.... The hot tub could have been hotter, but it was not that bad. The rooftop area is very nice - I wish the lounge chairs were as nice as the ones by the pool (those were definitely the same ones from 10 years ago). One thing we really did not like is that the bed was so soft that it was crazy uncomfortable....the mattress was DEFINITELY from 10 years ago - LOL! Otherwise, we love it, and maybe we can make it again before another 10 years go by!

Clean and accessible but in the quieter end of wildwood. We loved the hot tub and heated pool and the kitchenette was perfect for some meals in.

We stayed in Aqua Beach Penthouse It was wonderful every minute Book it so wonderful Only negative is the Roku TV which was not good And for all the people that can study there PLEASE MORE FURNITURE in the back, a wrap around would seat so many Enjoyed being there with our family

Our stay at the Aqua Beach Hotel was absolutely wonderful. We stayed in early October in the PALMS room, with the private balcony on the 5th floor. WE LOVED THE VIEW! The rooftop sun deck with hammocks was exquisite! The only downside was that the bedroom was located in the front, with a large window with light filtering blinds. Room darkening curtains should be installed, so the sunlight won't bother those who prefer to sleep late on vacation. Otherwise the stay was impeccable!

3rd time staying at Aqua Beach. Like this resort a lot. Love the top deck with it's view and decor. Would stay here again for sure.
