The view was beautiful! We liked the location, close enough to towns to find restaurants, but far enough away to enjoy the peace and quiet. It was nice having extra towels, dishware, silverware and extra paper products in the room. Peggy was exceptionally friendly, and we appreciated how she was in contact with us from before our arrival and during our stay.

We had an issue with the door lock, which we were able to fix. The toaster should be replaced, it seems to be missing heating elements on each side, so our toast only got toasted on one side. The shower temperature knob was faulty, it was difficult to adjust the water temperature. The floor was unlevel in the center of the room, which we were constantly tripping over.

Great location/ Quiet and peaceful place to spend some time at the beach. The room was clean and comfortable we would definitely stay there again.

King bed in the suite was too elevated from the floor/ it would be difficult for elderly guests to manage getting in and out of without a step stool. Several guests had dogs with them, The ones that were well managed and under control were pleasant. But then there were irresponsible owners that deemed it ok to leave their pet alone in their room. Their dogs barked the whole time the owners were gone/ Couple of hours of non stop barking because their dog felt abandoned when it was left in that position. Obviously there needs to be a policy regarding dogs not being left alone without supervision on the premises.

Amazing! Friendly and clean as always! Tidepools off the beach were absolutely amazing this year, hundreds of star fish to photograph and enjoy! Love the fireplace, we didnt use it but still really nice to have the option. Please tell your dog I say Hi!

Wish our little couch had an end table, and maybe a boot cleaner when you come in off the beach so you don't track so much sand in, but that's cuz im lazy and don't wanna bend over and take my shoes off outside. Lol Yall ROCK SERIOUSLY

I love the spacious rooms that offer a separate tv area from the sleeping area. Very nice little kitchen set up with plenty of coffee, utensils, paper products etc. They also supply a box fan! Basically everything you need is in your room. I love the beautiful, low traffic beach that is just steps away. I love Peggy who runs the place. She’s the most friendly hotel host I’ve ever met. I’ve definitely made a new friend. Will always return to Moolack on future trips to Newport.

I would like to be able to purchase chilled bottled water. If it was available I didn’t see it on the grounds. But I never asked.

The location was great! The property is small, which I liked and gies off a "family cabin" vibe. This place has saltwater stained windows, slightly dated bathrooms, sand on the floor (sorry about that), and tons of personality! I can't compare it to a hotel, because that's not what it is. Our room included a bedroom, separate from the living area, a small kitchen, and an oceanfront view from the deck. Our teen appreciated having his own space after spending the previous two nights in a hotel room with his parents. The hostess answered any questions we had. She offered to hold our room another night when we were worried about the freeway being closed due to fires (Thanks, Peggy!). We made it home, but really wanted to stay! I think Moolack Shores is a perfect getaway. We left with memories, sand on our feet, and smiles on our faces! We will stay there again, hopefully soon!

You should know before booking that this has more of a small family cabin feel. It's not a sterile cookie cutter hotel. Actually, I really appreciated that about the stay.

I loved the proximity to the beach, 51 stairs and I was there, I also liked that my room was facing, looking down the beach and I could see all the way to Beverly Beach area, and they were dog friendly, my dogs had plenty of space to check out.

The wasn't parking spaces in front of the room for each room, there was a space in front of our room but it wasn't dedicated, and my elderly husband ended up having to walk down from the upper parking lot on gravel in the dark one night.

A small micro motel, they call an inn located just off the highway on the beach side. A bit dated maybe, a bit funky maybe, not for everyone maybe….but we loved this place. Our host Peggy was very welcoming and helpful. The room was very well appointed with everything we needed….plus. But if you are expecting the Ritz, this is not for you. After a lovely evening sitting on the porch with waves crashing (no highway noise) we had a great night rest in a comfortable bed. Stairs to the beach and a 5 mile walk made for a perfect morning. And the hot water was hot even though…that is one small shower. Will plan to stay here again for sure and would book more than a single night.

The 10 AM checkout was unfortunate as bookings.com said it was at 11. They said, we understand miscommunications happen, and it’s hard for small places to dictate to third party agents about details needing updates.

Quiet, peaceful and the view of the ocean and easy access to the beach was amazing. Our room was stocked with extra everything - linens (towels and sheets), paper towels, coffee pods, soaps and shampoo! The king bed was so comfortable - slept very well! Unlike a hotel with tons of noise. Peggy is very informative and so easy to work with. Room was very clean. Thank you! We’ll be back!

Not disappointed at all.

The staff kept in contact with me despite my later check in and were wonderful. My room was exactly what I expected and more. The view was spectacular and access to the beach was great. I also enjoyed that even though the parking lot was full I didn't hear a single noise all evening

My only comment would be that I would have enjoyed to have more air circulation in the room. I did find a box fan to plug in and it did just nicely

Peggy, the owner was so kind and wanted to be sure we enjoyed our stay and had everything we needed. I liked that it didn't have carpet but wood-like floors and everything was very clean, comfortable, and the view of the ocean from the living area and the bedroom was outstanding.

The motel is older and showing its age in some ways, but the owner has done her best to modernize it and keep it in good working order.
