Horrible motel, and even worse management. The rooms are extremely outdated with broken items in the room... and watch out, because they will charge you for those broken items that were already defective. Cockroaches are present. Ironically, the rooms are entirely overpriced as well. It is very unclean and very uncomfortable - Sea Isle is a great beach town but... More

I booked a surprise vacation for my family but when I arrived our efficiency was not on the "quiet side" (for my grandmother), the elevator was broken, and there was no parking for us. For $5 they allowed us to park next to the liquor store lot, which we gladly did. Disappointed so far, but still excited about the week... More

Great town to have a good old fashioned beach buzz. The jersey shore gets a bad rap from the bull%^& on tv. This is not Seaside Heights. Great destination if you have kids. Restaurants are very competitive- hit the lobster loft by the amusement park for great seafood. Tiki bar is awesome.

Broke air conditioner, damp floor and bedding, weird smell in room. Add in the rudeness of the staff... real downer to my vacation. Left after first night. Was told I would receive refund for additional two nights, still haven't heard back from owner. Save your money.

Simple, clean, outdoor bar with live music and great location. In the heart of all the action.

I found the accommodations to be clean, but that was about it. It's dated and tired. The best thing about it is that you can crawl up the stairs from one of the reunion parties it holds on the plaza outside on Saturday nights. It wasn't cheap...however, the staff was friendly and helpful, even though they looked tired too. Got... More

This is the 3rd time my husband & I have stayed at La Costa. We love it! The staff is super friendly and helpful with local suggestions. The cleaning staff is thorough, very sweet, and it's nice to see the same people every time we come back. That says so much about La Costa, and their ability to retain employees.... More

If I could rate this a negative 10 I would. This is by far the most disgusting place I have ever had the misfortune of sleeping. We, thankfully, were only staying here one night until a beach rental we were getting opened up. Normally I wouldn't write a review on someplace I was only staying for one night, but it... More

This place was dirty and needs much updating. Matresses are dirty and stained. Bathroom is from the 70's. WE found condom wrappers and a used coke bag on the dresser. When we got out of the shower and walked around our feet were black. SO gross. Yes it is a great location but I would have rather walked.
