We are located on Old Orchard Beach, Maine's finest beach. We are open from May through October. Although the summer season is the most popular season in Old Orchard Beach, the beauty of the coastal area is enchanting throughout the spring and the fall. Waves Oceanfront Resort is fun for families.
Walk from your room onto the sand to swim, build sand castles, stroll in the surf looking for shells and rocks or just relax and enjoy the feel of the sun on your face while you enjoy the view.Our outdoor pool is a great place to take a dip. We are just a short walk from the Pier at Old Orchard Beach, which has restaurants, shopping and the only amusement park on the beach in Maine.

It's a place to sleep. Given the condition of everything it's not a place to enjoy your stay, you enjoy your stay at he beach andnin the village and otherwise never be there. Room service, forget it. We reserved two rooms One for two adults and two children another for an adult and a teen. Never got any fresh towels, garbage emptied or room swept. There are no rinse stations so all the sand will be brought in and floating around as they don't clean rooms. Tub drain is pathetic, water just stands there and shower hads are so tiny. I wouldn't call it a resort really, more like

The rooms were older and dated but very close to the beach which was convient and the pool was nice. Not big enough for all the guests though. The one downfall was the first room we were in the refrigerator was not working. They made us switch rooms which took a bit of time. Overall I would stay here again.

Clean,pull out couch came in handy. It was my first time using the booking.com and the dates were off they still accommodated me and helped us, stayed a few nights enjoyed the hot tub pool and ocean, had my 4month old with us and the pool was perfect for him. Could have used a microwave, staff was clean and persistent. Lots of fun on the board walk very close to the resort, below the resort has the best store had everything we needed building b is recommended or ask for closer to the beach view there is different building's closer to the ocean view. Will definitely be back.

Waves was exactly what I needed for my local, COVID vacation! I arrived in OOB 2 hours before check in, not expecting the room ready given it was Labor Day but they kindly let me stay parked at their facility until my room was ready, saving me $10-20 to go to a parking lot while I grabbed lunch. About 30 min later the called my cell to tell me the room was ready! Everyone was very friendly, wore masks, had clean pens, and sanitizer around.
The room itself is what you would expect for a motel- not glamorous with some hard water stains, a bit of wear and tear, but it was clean and was nice to

Room was pretty spacious for 2 people. We had a large screen TV--about 50 inches,a bathroom, and a kitchen. We did have to go up a long flight of stairs to get to our room though, so if you have bad knees, then it's something to watch out for. However, we were not too far from the beach, actually right across the street, which was awesome! We were able to watch the sunrise AND sunset and go back to our room, which was just a few steps away. There is also complimentary coffee in the morning, which is awesome!
However, the room definitely needs an update. The sheets I slept on felt like it hadn

My husband and I have stayed here plenty of times, it was recommended by family. Well our last visit was the worst. We just drove up and was going with the flow. And we stopped in to see if they had any vacancy and they said only for one night. So we just said ok to one night and when we were hanging around oob the next day their vacancy sign was still lit up. Never mind there was a party going on above our head until 1am and nothing was done. I did call the desk and let them know. Nothing was done. I know it was a out on a whim trip I don't expect perfect but it was awful. No care for guests

The boyfriend and I stayed for two nights this past weekend in the "off season". Great price for a beach front hotel, just a short walk from the heart of OOB. The rooms are a bit small and outdated, but it was clean and just what we needed for our stay. We didn't spend much time actually in the room anyway. The salt water pool and hot tub was very nice, although yes it was packed with children which surprised me for off season but I can't really complain about that. We came back down to the pool area during the "adult time" from 9-10pm and it was better. We were promptly

This is a great motel at a great price. The location can't be beat- just a few steps to one of Maine's best beaches.
My husband and I were in town for a wedding- we stayed Friday through Monday. Every interaction with the front desk staff was pleasant and helpful. We arrived around 8pm on Friday evening, checked in quickly, and were provided with ample information about the motel and its policies.
The pool/hot tub area that overlooked the ocean was open until 9pm with extended hours until 10pm for 18+. Note, the "18+" policy was not enforced. It is still technically "

Crooks! A story similar to the bike story already on here. Occasionally in these summer hotel towns the hotels will sell some of their furniture and room fixtures, as they renovate. It's usually a good way to get decent home goods for a good price.
This place was selling all sorts of stuff, including some refrigerators, one of which I bought at a pretty good price. Well, I got home, loaded it in and it doesn't work. So, I load the refrigerator back up, drive all the way back to OOB and talk to John, who is apparently in charge of selling these fixtures. He tells me, "Oh, you got

This place is adorable! The beach is literally a 2 minute walk, & they have an outdoor pool as well if you don't like swimming in the ocean. Everything is in walking distance and it's great that the Amtrack station is just over on the street parallel to the hotel - super convenient for people who don't drive!
The room wasn't anything fancy but it WAS more than I expected it to be. The only downside with the room was the bathroom (it was pretty small) & they no longer have smoking rooms, but really - that wasn't an issue at all. The room was spacious, with a small

I've stayed at this hotel before during the summer and paid a high price of $179 a night, but if you go after Labor Day, the prices drop by about 100 a night so you can get a nice bargain after the season. I decided to go back up here in mid September with the weather in the high 80's and sunny. This motel is very close to the beach which makes it worth staying at.
The only thing to keep in mind is many of the restaurants within walking distance after Labor Day are closed so there are a lot less options available to eat at. There are places to eat in the next town over in Saco, ME.

So it isn't super modern but I wasn't planning on adding the hotel to my real estate investment so I don't care how modern it is. It is clean, convenient, great staff, comfortable beds, warm pool, on the beach with a great view. The only negative I would say is the parking is bad-like sardine can parking (but the attendant is out there at night to assist people), and the climb up and down all those stairs was hard for my 75 year old mother. The check in process was easy and we arrived early so the staff checked us in early and called when the room was ready. I am very happy with

I took my family to OOB for the long Fourth of July weekend this year. I can not begin to express my satisfaction and at times find myself highly impressed with the facilities management. The location is ideal. Steps from the beach, close to the Pier and other shops and attractions. That's if you find that you have to leave the resort. Lafayette had thought of everything from a breakfast spot to a convince store. Staff is everywhere, Grounds are cared for meticulously, Security can be seen at night patrolling the grounds. Noise during the day can be much at the pool, but that is expected.

Talk about a bunch of crooks!!
I was in OOB for a long weekend with friends. We rented a side by side bike from waves bike rental. We paid the 1 hour rate($15/hr) and said we'd be back in an hour. The person working said "don't worry about the hour time limit. Take it for a while". When we brought the bike back 4 hours later we were hit with a charge of $75. I told the man at the desk that the guy who rented the bike to us said to take the bike for a few hours at the first-hour rate! He didn't even respond!! I would not recommend going to this hotel, if they cheat bike
