Best Hotels near Publix Super Market at Plaza del Mar, Manalapan

We stayed here for more than two weeks as our home was under renovation. Our double Queen bed room was most comfortable and quite spacious. The beds provided just the right amount of firmnesses as I have a bad back and cannot sleep on soft beds. The bathroom was a good size and very bright. Shower pressure was excellent. There was plenty of storage areas in our room which was great for our long term stay. The hotel location is great - across the street from countless restaurants and within a two minute drive of many more. The hotel grounds are kept immaculate and the pool area is lush and most inviting. As long term guests we were grateful to have a laundry room located on premises. The included breakfast was terrific and included several varieties of eggs, biscuits and gravy, a waffle maker, breakfast meats, yogurts, cold cereals, hot oatmeal, bagels, breads, muffins, fresh fruits, coffee/tea/hot cocoa and a variety of juices. Staff continuously replenished items throughout breakfast hours. During our stay we noticed how spotless the staff kept the common areas of the hotel. Housekeeping (once every four days unless otherwise requested) was wonderful and assisted us with any requests such as extra soap, moisturizer, towels, etc. Our interactions with ALL members of the staff were exceedingly pleasant as everyone was very friendly and took the time to chat with us. We truly were made to feel at home throughout our stay.

We stayed for two nights in this hotel. The room was fine as was the outdoor pool area which was a pleasure. However, the staff has a serious problem with customer service that was horrendous. I use a walker so most of the schlepping of our luggage, etc. falls on my wife. When she asked for a luggage cart, the two people sitting at the desk responded that they have three of them, but they can’t find them as they must be in customers’ rooms. My wife is a small woman who is 67 years old. She began to make six trips into the hotel as the two geniuses at the front desk just watched her bring in all of our stuff. They just sat there without budging to assist her. We were just furious at the lack of empathy and customer service. We did find a manager who heard the story and apologized profusely. He said we should call the manager of the front desk, Alex, and tell him what occurred. We called candy left a voicemail. He never returned our call! We happened to see him the next morning and when asked why he didn’t call us back, he just shrugged. When we told him what happened, he couldn’t have cared less. Now we know why the two staffers who just sat there were so poorly trained . Their direct supervisor was as clueless as them. The next morning, I found the general manager who was apologetic, but didn’t convince me that he would do anything. He at least could have credited a breakfast or two that we charged to the room or just something. A very poor showing for Courtyard management and staff.

Our family booked 4 rooms here for a funeral. We were not familiar with the area but could not have picked a better location. Behind the hotel there are numerous stores, restaurants and a bakery that you can walk to. Nearby is a supermarket and bowling alley. The room had ants in the bathroom sink. We did not see them after the first day. The room was spacious and overall clean. The breakfast area had many options but many were high carb choices such as bagels, donuts and cereals. There is a coffee, tea and hot chocolate station in the lobby. However, after a long day I went to make a cup tea and there was no water. I waited for 20 minutes at the front desk and had to go behind the counter to find a staff member. The lady on duty was on her cell phone and annoyed to be interrupted. I told her that there were 3 other customers waiting at the desk for service. She was RUDE and told me I had to wait until the next day for housekeeping to refill the water. All other staff members were courteous. If you are a light sleeper this may not be the place for you because you can hear all chatter in the hallways as early as 6 am.

In the hotel in Ctrip, the full payment was paid in advance, but at the time of check-in, the hotel front desk said that the order was cancelled. Ctrip customer service was more responsible. I negotiated with the hotel and asked me to pay the full amount of the check-in, etc., and then refunded it, which was delayed for more than an hour. Late resolution is also very troublesome. In addition to this, the hotel is good, the environment is beautiful, the breakfast is good, and it is ten minutes walk from the beach.

I have stayed at this place many times but now with the staff and management it is sooo much better every one is courteous and helpful and the experience is just so much better than before. Very pleased to be able to submit a very good review !

We just returned from a lovely month at Hampton Inn WPB Central. At check in we were warmly greeted and recognized as Diamond Hilton members by Dejon and Jean. Throughout our stay they were both warm, welcoming and helpful. Also greeting us upon arrival was the Sales Manager Joanne Schroeder, happy to see we arrived safely and making sure that check in went smoothly and that we were happy with our accommodations. Our suite was large, very clean, bright and well furnished. The refrigerator could have been a little larger with a more adequate freezer section, but we managed nicely with what we had. Elande of housekeeping was wonderful and did a great job cleaning our room. Breakfast was more than adequate with many choices. A suggestion might be to serve a variety of yogurt flavors instead of one flavor that has to be hand spooned out of a large bowl. Also, decaf coffee would be a nice addition to the regular coffee left for guests in the lobby throughout the day. It is only there during breakfast. The kitchen staff, Kari, Maria and Clifford, all did a marvelous job replenishing items as well as keeping the dining and kitchen areas clean. The hotel is constantly being cleaned and updated. We did not use the pool although it was lovely. Unfortunately, the noise from the nearby road was not conducive to rest and relaxation. On the plus side, the Hampton Inn is connected by a very short path to a Hilton Garden Inn and we were welcome to use the pool there which was very nice and quiet. The gym is excellent with new and updated equipment. We would like to thank all staff members in every capacity for their kindness to us. They are all professional and an asset to Hilton hotels. If it were possible, I would give this hotel 10 stars and highly recommend it for a short vacation or an extended stay. We are looking forward to returning next year to experience Hampton Inn hospitality once again.

The Eau Palm Beach Resort & Spa is the perfect little get away! Our room view was amazing! It was basically like we were literally right on the ocean! The service here is great. Everyone is extremely nice and helpful! Food was good as well! Definitely cannot wait to come back here again!
