We chose the Soundings because it was advertised having a private beach, outdoor & indoor pools, and on site Coffee Shop. We had to pay in advance for our four day stay. We arrived on a Sunday, and found out on Monday that the Coffee Shop was closed for the season and they were draining the outdoor pool already. Our... more

No two ways about it - this hotel is a dump. Peeling paint on all shabby buildings and very dated furniture which was in awful shape. They're going condo so have not maintained it at all. The up-side is the location on the best beach in Dennis. Whenever I'd get annoyed at how gross the room was I'd look out... more

the location was great, rooms were dated but clean, overall appearance needs some maintenance. However, one thing they didn't mention in the description was the indoor kiddie pool. One of the features that we liked was that there was a hot tub. Unfortunately, even though there are two signs stating that you must be ovder 18 to use the hot... more

This was our second year in a row at the Soundings, and it was a wonderful vacation. As others have said...it is not a 5 star resort..it's a bit dated, but it's clean and the location is amazing. We go the last week in August when the rates drop to off season prices. You are at a private beach with... more

After reading the prior reviews I was leary but went ahead . This is a very nice older hotel that is beachfront (with 2 pools) on one of the best sections of warm water beach on Cape Cod. To address the negative items from prior reviews: 1) The bedroom and sitting room were much larger than expected 2) All three... more

I read the reviews before I booked and I was concerned to say the least. But the rates and being right on the ocean were to big a draw to stop me. Thank God!! What a great time my family had. We were only going to stay for 4 nights but when an efficiency became available we stayed an extra... more

I was pretty nervous after reading some of the reviews on here, but was pleasantly surprised by a lovely two-night stay at the Soundings. We booked through Expedia and had a swift and issue-free check-in. The Soundings was recently bought by a new management company that's updating the rooms and grounds, hence some of the reservation system confusion and construction... more

I have been staying here for over 40 years. Every year holds so many awesome and special memories! Great place and always AWESOME!!!!! more

Don't book by email or they'll switch your reservation or just cancel you!!! As a matter of fact don't book at all. I had a written confirmation for a mid week "special" for their Deluxe Ocean Front room (which I learned is NOT on the ocean front) and these rude arrogant crooks told me that their "resevation system" is not... more
