Being on the beach that’s it. Otherwise do not recommend this place. Very old and dated and ac doesn’t work well.

Location is AMAZING! Check in staff was wonderful, check out staff, not so much. Bed was good, room clean and its location was great, but being above the coffee /breakfast window, meant roaches(which I luckily did not experience until the last night). Was there 3 days. Room could use an update, but the TV worked, the shower was hot and nothing beats the lication! Might do it again.

We were very happy with the accommodations. The room was clean and has a small kitchen with a full size refrigerator, a 2 burner hotplate, a microwave and sink. There are utensils and pans. There are enough towels and washcloths. There is an iron, a blow dryer and even a lawn chair. It is right on the boardwalk and you can stroll to restaurants, etc. It is very accessible to downtown Hollywood.

Overall we were very disappointed in our stay. Upon entering our room, we found 30-40 termites both dead and alive along the window sills, flying across the room, and crawling on the bed. When we notified the front desk staff, they were very apologetic and did wipe the windows off but also shared that management had tried spraying for them outside the building (meaning they were aware that the room was infested with termites and still placed us there). The hotel itself is very outdated and in need of updates and repairs. The front door was very hard to close and lock. The bathroom door doesn't lock at all or even close all the way. The windows were super old and don't open because several of the locks were broken off. One window wouldn't fully close or lock on one side. There isn't an exhaust fan in the bathroom so any time you shower the whole room gets hot. The shower had a lot of soap scum residue and the corners of the floors were moldy. The air conditioner is just a window unit. It was dirty with the "change filter" light flashing and didn't work well. We asked twice to have a manager contact us and never received a response. It was also sargassum season so we had to trudge through several feet of seaweed to get to the ocean. On a positive note the location was nice and front desk staff were friendly.

I recently stayed at the Riptide Hotel and appreciated its beachfront location. Being able to walk directly from my room to the beach was a major highlight of the stay. The room was clean and included a small kitchenette, which was convenient. The hotel also provided ice and beach chairs for guests to use. While the location is excellent, the property would benefit from some updates. The exterior of the building appears to need fresh paint, and the rooms, although adequate, could use some modernization. The bathroom was quite small. The staff were friendly and helpful during daytime hours; however, services were very limited in the evening. After returning from dinner, I found that the bar, restaurant, and office had all closed by approximately 8:00 p.m. The property felt very quiet and somewhat deserted at night, which did not create a strong sense of security. Additionally, it would have been helpful to have information available regarding local grocery stores, restaurant delivery options, and area attractions. Overall, the Riptide Hotel is a reasonable choice for travelers seeking an affordable beachfront stay. If your primary goal is easy beach access and a clean place to sleep, it offers good value for the price.

Before I booked I asked about a late check in. They said to notify them and they would have a key ready. I agreed and booked the room right after. Well, I forgot to remind them until 7:30pm that day when we had a layover. I figured it might be in their notes but that was presuming too much. By the time I reached out they were closed. They close at 6pm on a Friday, which was shockingly early. There was no one to call so I sent an email. No response. One would think that they might be looking at their bookings that hadn’t checked in prior to closing up, and reach out to the customer. Again, that must be presuming too much customer service. I was still hoping for the best so we took an Uber to the property. No key, no lights and no one home. There was a sign posted with a phone number to call for emergencies after hours. I called. No one answered. Good thing they posted a line that no one answers. It’s was past midnight at this point. So, we went around the corner to the Marriott and found a very pleasant, very accommodating young lady who helped us book an accommodation there for the night. She said she had heard other people complain about the Riptide. Upon looking at the hotel the next day, I was glad it didn’t work out. It didn’t look like the pictures. Much more run down in appearance. I take responsibility for not confirming the late check-in earlier. I have to own that. I just expect a little more customer service from boutique hotels.
