Top Central Hotel Reviews

Ocean's Edge Luxury Rentals

8/10 Good

"Good location close to the beach. Nice staff. Clean environment"

Ocean 7

8/10 Good

"The property is in a good location and the staff were friendly and helpful. The room we stayed in was outdated. The freezer was cracked. The TV would not hook up to WiFi so we were unable to stream anything and there were also no children’s cable channels, which made for a long day when it rained and the pool/beach were not an option. Overall, I would stay at this property again but I would choose a different location. Other rooms seemed more well kept from what we saw walking to and from our room."

The Linda Grande Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"My wife and I took a spur of the moment day trip that turned into two and we found this gem of a hotel . First and foremost the owners and staff wonderful people with a heart for hospitality. This family owned and operated hotel was like a home away from home . This charming 100 year old hotel has been updated and given new life and it is right in the heart of Ocean City . THE GOOD : Exceptionally clean room Ice cold AC Hot water strong water pressure New everything New comfy bed Keyless entry Free WiFi Free parking available in a pay to park city Free beach passes to a pay for access beach ($50 value alone) Games for kids Beautiful wrap around porch for lounging Great value for the price. THE BAD: Stairs , be mindful it is a 100 year old building so there is no elevator . However the staff did offer to help with our bags which was nice. Parking can be a little tight ( to be expected in a family beach resort town). It’s not brand new . (Duh) THE UGLY: None Beautiful people My wife and I had a lovely stay and hope to return to the Linda Grande every summer . So if you are looking an excellent stay in beautiful Ocean City for a great value this is the place for you . Hope this review is helpful . Shout out to the owners James and John for being most gracious hosts and going above and beyond making our stay one of the best we’ve had in a very long time . Check them out!"
