Space of rooms and living area smaller than expected. The kitchen area seems to be bigger than living room area. The twin size bunk beds very shirt/small. I’m 5”5 and the top bunk was under my shoulder and the bottom sat on the floor.

Stayed at the Marlin after a family cruise. Arrived in Hollywood Beach well earlier than our check-in at 2 PM. I was hoping to maybe store our luggage in the office until we could check in, but unfortunately no one was at the office. Texted Caleb to inquire about holding our luggage, but he said the office was closed and we will not be able to check in till 2 PM. We found a day room nearby that had access to a pool to kill some time. Received a text with the access code before 2 PM and made our way over to check-in. Still no one at the office got access to the key. The room is clean. The bed is comfortable. The air-conditioning gets the room cold enough. Balcony is nice no complaints on the room. It suited our needs for a long weekend with four people. We received four bath towels and two beach towels, which was nice. The problem is we ran out of toilet paper on the third day. I requested additional toilet paper and some replacement towels late on the second day. I received a response back that we would have towels from housekeeping, but unfortunately housekeeping never came and now we are without fresh towels or toilet paper because I was specifically told we would get these items from housekeeping so I didn’t bother walking eight blocks to get more toilet paper. Also, while we are here, there was another couple from Canada who never received their check-in code and sitting outside almost in tears because they were getting no response.

We absolutely loved our stay at the Marlin! Beautiful little suite with views of the beach. Walkable to everything on the boardwalk. And just a really cool vibe overall! There are only a few parking spots and they are TIGHT but we made it work. Would definitely book another stay at this one of a kind motel!

Caleb was super friendly and made check in/check out quick & easy. We stayed in unit 3 next to the office.
The Good: There are plenty of restaurants within a short distance (most you can walk to), the beach is super close, & the room was very spacious. Also, the A/C was amazing & kept the room nice & cold without issues. The beds were comfortable as well.
The bad: 1) While this property is advertised as pet friendly, be aware there are literally no grassy areas close by to walk your furry friend. The only small areas available were up the block in front & on the sides of the parking garage. It is nothing but concrete between the rooms & those areas so if your pet needs a potty break during the hot hours of the day, their feet my get burned walking up to the grassy patches mentioned. 2) The room appeared clean at first glance but actually was not. There were quite a few tiny black sugar ants all over the kitchenette area. Again, the floor looked clean but if you walked barefoot on it, after a bit your feet would be black. We had to wear socks inside bc of this & at the end of the day when going to bed, our socks would be dark grey/black on bottom. 3) The glass walk in shower door is not sealed correctly at the bottom so when you shower, water leaks underneath & pools in the bathroom. We had to use the provided beach towels to soak up all the water after every shower. 4) There are only 4 parking spaces available. Everyone else has to use parking garage @ $25 daily.

We booked at this hotel because it has recently been renovated and had a kitchenette. Rooms are clean and have beach chairs and umbrellas for use, which is nice since it has excellent location by the beach. It said free laundry but the room is locked without access. The bikes are in bad shape and need repair as well. Communication with the office is pretty sporadic as they aren't on site very often or at all?

Excellent stay and would definitely stay again. Reasonably priced, and as close to beachfront as you can be without being truly on the beach. 45 second walk.

I appreciated having access to the property’s bikes, beach towels, and beach umbrellas. It was spacious and comfortable. Our room had a kitchen which helps save on food costs by not eating out for every meal. It has a very useable and not crowded stretch of beach.

Caleb, the hotel manager, was responsive and helped to get our room in order a little before we needed.

The property was very close to the boardwalk along the beach, only a short walk to the band shell. Free evening entertainment. Yes, there are bicycles, but in desperate need of crankshaft repair. One bike’s brakes did not work and my son ran into a palm tree. People would stare as they were noisy and not smooth to pedal. Unit one was cool, comfortable, and clean, but the shower needs a shelf to place any shampoos or shaving materials rather than stooping to the floor. The water guard is broken at the bottom of the door and water leaks onto the floor requiring a towel. The sink has no drain guard and anything falling into the sink disappears down the drain. We appreciated that someone had left coffee and filters and the cup of coffee on the beach at sunrise was memorable.

The reason for choosing this hotel was the price, and proximity to the beach. If we were staying longer then 3 nights this would not have been our choice. The room is very small w/ a very small bathroom. The premises could use some cleaning up but we were at the beach so we overlooked a few things.

It is very close to the Broadwalk where you’ll find the restaurants, shops, and of course the beach. The area seemed safe and not overly crowded. We didn’t experience any issues regardless of the time of day or evening while we were out and about.

There were pros and cons. The first pro was Caleb, who was wonderful from Check-in to check out and extremely attentive. Another pro was that they put two beach chairs in the room for you, which is the first time I’ve ever had that at a beachside resort and made it really convenient. Another pro was that it was so close to the beach and felt like a very safe area. The cons were that the towels did not seem like they were fresh. The bathmat was dirty and had holes and tears, but they did replace them immediately when requested. The room does need some sprucing up. It was very stark, which really showed the wear and tear on the walls and paint. Could use some decor artwork on the walls, etc. Also has a coffee maker but no filters or coffee packets for the first morning so never got to use it. Overall, I would stay there again, but I would probably bring my own towels and bedding this time and filters for the coffee maker

The room was very clean and updated. Great little kitchen and bath, good lighting, kitchen was well stocked, and they provided beach towels, which was a nice touch. They also had hooks in the bathroom and in the room - which is so great, and most places don't have! I loved being able to borrow a bike and a beach chair without hassle. The location is super convenient to the beach but doesn't really have a beach view. My view was of a wall - that is my only complaint, but for the high season the price was a bargain and the property wonderful!

This hotel is located less than a minute from the beach and Hollywood Broadwalk. The host Caleb was friendly but we inly encounteredhim once. It's important to understand that this is not a traditional hotel in the sense that there is not really service. The office is open a few hours a day in the afternoon and housekeeping is not offered during your stay. I should memtion the room was very clean upon arrival, but the room was not serviced again during our 5 day stay. By the end 5 days i was ready to leave. Otherwise i have no complaints and if you're okay with the noted above, you should book and enjoy Hollywood!
