We had stayed at another hotel for several years during this time period (right after Labor Day), but decided to make the move to Blue Water. We had stayed briefly in May and when we saw what a nice place it was, we cancelled the reservations we had at that other place and made reservations here for September, after Labor... more

This hotel lived up to some of the bad reviews. Very rude desk staff. The carpet was damp and sticky. The room had old furniture, scratched, etc. The bath had mold on the floor and walls of shower. Towels were frayed. The beach chairs were old. This was my first time on Cape Cod. Next time I'll stay elsewhere .... more

We visited friends who were staying at the property. We stayed late into the afternoon with them, deciding to ultimately take a room and stay overnight (one night.) We found the property and amenities pleasant and the beach excellent. Lots of activites for the kids (albeit, for a price!) There were plenty of new beach chairs and space to spread... more

We had a wonderful stay. The staff was so accomidating-from finding their best room at their best price- offering AAA discounts, to downloading shopping directions for us- both without being asked. The grounds were beautiful. Fantastic sun sets. beautiful view of the ocean. It was a very friendly, family oriented atmosphere. The kids had lots to do, and lots of... more

Thank you so much for your review. The location you stayed in is indeed a beautiful area and never far from any of our activities. Thanks again for a great review.

I was looking forward to a 3 night stay at a "resort". Upon arrival we realized that we were staying at nothing more than a motel. The rooms were clean, but in terrible need of upgrading. The restaurant is only open for breakfast. We found most of the staff to be a little "rough". When the bartenders end their shift,... more

For the three-day July 4th weekend, my husband and I, together with my parents and my sister's family of five ventured to the Blue Water Resort. Two years ago we stayed at the sister property, the Red Jacket. This time we chose the Blue Water for two reasons: 1) it was more economical and 2) it accepted pets. When we... more

We're VERY pleased to hear the positives and ALWAYS disappointed to hear the negatives. We apologize for some of the guests who got a little too much into the "spirits" of the 4th of July. We'd be pleased to have you visit again.

I've been going to the Cape since I was kid (so at least 20+ years) and Blue Water is one of the best hotels on the cape. It's is right on the ocean and they have a large sandy beach and have chairs and umbrellas for your use right on the beach. There's a nice outdoor pool and a small... more

Nice to have you back at the Blue Water. We are just starting to add DVD players into guest rooms. Yes, the "Patio" building is beautiful area and one of our most requested locations at the resort. "Pumbre" aka the manager"s golden retriever is unoffically at the resort to welcome other pets who can now stay at the Blue Water....

This hotel is very nice BUT it is affiliated with the Red Jacket resorts which are geared toward families with children. We are a newly married couple and really have no interest in being around lots of kids. The hotel's website does not mention that it is a Red Jacket resort. I would not have stayed here if I had... more

I don't think I would go to this place during the height of the season. We went in October so there were no crowds of people or kids. The staff was friendly, checkout was quick. My husband and I are into photography and this place was great for that. Just walk from your room to the beach. Photographing the beach... more

Fall on Cape Cod is a great time of the year. I bet you have some beautiful photos and wonderful memories. Some guest room locations at the resort are adjacent to the parking and noise from car doors etc can be disturbing at night. We look forward to seeing in the fall.

This vacation was a disaster. The word resort, and the price 300-400dollars a night, implies a certain level of quality and sevice. The Blue Water is more of a Motel and the service is not on the level with a resort at all. One morning, I had the "DO Not Disturb" sign out on my door knob and house keeping... more

We welcome any constructive suggestions from our guests in the rare event they feel their stay with us was less than satisfactory. Even though a refund was offered to the guests as a gesture of good faith, we are disappointed that we were unable meet all of their expectations. Though this experience was the exception rather than the rule at...
