Coconut Malorie Resort, Ocean City

The sunsets from the back bay view rooms are absolutely breath taking. The property has been well maintained and is very clean. The staff was friendly, the manager Keeba was a hoot! I'll definitely be back. The fact that it's so close to Fager's is a plus too!

We had food posioning. They had turned off a/c. The fan didn't work. The room was smelling bad and dirty. The kitchen was bad too. The tub was broken and cracked. They didn't changed the sheets. The front desk was rude. I wouldn't stay here again.

Kristin is this b*tch's name, like most people we left early for ocean city and got there around 9am as we were in line 3 guests checked out and I asked if we could check in, well not only did she loose our itinerary she then told us we couldn't check in till 4pm, so what am I suppose to do for 7 hrs! So I said fine and went to the beach for 4 hrs I then called and she again said nope no rooms, well what about the guests that checked out earlier! So then we stop by at 3pm to change and again I ask this stupid dip wit Kristin we have less than an hour can we check in, she said nope no rooms yet, well it's been 6 hours and your telling me in 1 hr you will have a room? Come on fire this stupid employee with her dumb look on her face.

My husband and I went there for a special romantic get-a-way on May 18, 19, 20 right after the cruiser weekend ended. I booked the room on expedia for $70/night and it was well worth it considering the previous night we had spent in Reboboth at the Sands and paid $170/night for a wet room that was other wise pretty nice but not $170/night nice. Malories was very clean and well worth the $70 we paid, I'd even say it would be worth up to $120-130 if they had the pool and hot tub open (they said it would be open by Memorial day weekend- 4 days later but hard to believe considering it looked like no one had even started thinking about opening it).I might feel ripped off if I paid anymore than $90/night for the dates we were there. The elevators are downright SCARY and one was broken and loudly being worked on whle we were there. We used the steps. The furnishings and sheets/towels were nice in our room. We did not spend the extra money for a "romance package" because it seemed like a rip off to me. After reading the review before mine I am glad I went with my instinct. Fagers was walking distance and we had a fabulous dinner, but alittle pricey -$150 for two people. We even went back later to dance for a few in the club part. The lady who checked us in at Malories was great and even expedited our room and let us check in a few hours early, but there wasn't much staff around other than the guy at the front desk and a few of his friends that were hanging out with him. The work out room and game room were nice but not big enough for more than a few people. I didn't see a dining area like in the last picture. the balcony was big enough for 2 people to stand on- that was about it. If you smoke -don't even think about smoking in this place as they clearly indicate they will charge you a $500 cleaning fee to somehow "clean" the room of smoke if your found smoking or the room smells smokey. We don't smoke, but I still could recognize what a brutal threat that was. We didn't use the kitchen except to make some coffee one evening as the coffee in the lobby was stale and luke warm. The kitchen seemed fine for what it was. My husband and I travel to other countries and are used to staying in 4 star resorts. This wasn't a 4 star resort, however, for OC Maryland and $70 a night- it was more than adequate and we were very pleased. If they get the elevators fixed, get some motivated staff (and 86 the hang out friends)this place would be pretty good. Just as long as you get a deal on the room, as I hear their regular rates are a bit pricey for what your getting. Off season has a lot to do with it being nice as well..it was quiet. PS- Oh, it had no WI-FI in the rooms....c'mon motel 6 has wi-fi..get with it!!

My husband and I stayed there last weekend (May 16-18, 2008) and it was the only place where I could find an opening due to the popular Cruiser's Weekend. I booked the couple's package for an extra $150 and it was NOT worth it!! A half dozen yellow roses in the room, some coupons to lunch ($20 off) and dinner ($50 off) at Fager's island and some muffins/OJ in the fridge.... dinner at Fager's was good, but we essentially paid the full price of the meal with the cost of the couple's package (and then some!) So definitely skip that if you are desperate enough to need to book a room here. On to the room... it was TERRIBLE, especially considering the price!! I have stayed in many Hiltons, Marriotts, Embassy Suites for roughly the same price per night and NEVER have I seen such a state of disrepair in a hotal room. The cabinets drawers in the kitchenette were old and misaligned .... same in the bathroom where one handle was completely broken off. Several shower curtain hooks were broken and missing, the bath towels were so old - they actually had HOLES in them (!!), the caning on the chairs in the living room was pulled off, the tile floor near the balcony was chipped and missing huge chunks (making barefoot walking hazardous). The bedroom dresser was missing several drawer pulls, the paint in all of the rooms was dirty and chipped in many places, and the fitted sheet on the bed looked and felt like it was 15 years old - not smooth, but "picky" and falling apart - I slept on top of the flat sheet. The extra blanket in the closet smelled like sour milk. Overall, I can't believe that management can actually ignore such minor fixes that make all the difference in the quality of a stay for a guest. It is true, as others have written - they have a beautiful lobby and one of the workers was re-painting the curb on the day we left. Why not pay some attention to the GUEST ROOMS?? They actually had the nerve (standing in the beautiful lobby and handing out free wine) to ask if we would sit through a 1 1/2 hour "spiel" on buying one of their timeshare units. You couldn't get me to agree to that even if the units were free! I respect my family and friends too much to ever allow them to set foot in this place again! Oh and beware.... again unlike any other place I've stayed ..... Coconut Malorie charges your credit card at Check In - not Check Out! They had charged us for the first night even before we had arrived! I was so disgusted upon our checkout, (yes the early 10:00 am) I couldn't even bring myself to voice the issues. Had the naive checkout girl asked about the quality of our stay (obviously they don't care to know because she didn't ask), I would have blasted the poor girl. Instead I decided to write and post my first ever review online to validate the other bad reviews. I was hoping and praying they were written by some very finicky folks, which I am not usually, but after spending so much $$ for NOTHING, I am so irritated with myself that I didn't heed the warnings of the other reviewers (BTW - I will print this and mail it to the Coconut Malorie). Overall, my hubby and I did have a nice weekend in OC and surpisingly we enjoyed Cruiser's Weekend and seeing all of the old restored cars driving up and down the main drag. We had some good food, good weather and fun walking the boardwalk. The Coconut Malorie was the ONLY negative - thank goodness we didn't spend much time in the room. We will likely return to OC, MD, but will definitely book at the Hilton or some other hotel that actually cares about their guests and show it in the quality and upkeep of the ROOMS. If ever faced with the same situation and the Coconut Malorie being the last place with an open room in all of Ocean City, I would opt to STAY HOME!

This was my first visit to Coconut Malorie, in fact I am just returning back home to PA this evening after having spent 8 nights there. When I booked it, it was for pleasure but fate and God had other plans. My mother passed away suddeningly and unexpected last week, so the resort really did come in handy. The front desk staff was very helpful and accomodating to me. I loved the room, and the view of the bay. Although using it for a sad time in our lives, we were able to grieve in a peaceful beautiful environment. I will be returning again in the near future. Oh by the way, the housekeeping staff did a great job. I even popped them some popcorn as a little way of saying thanks. Remember it is not always the big things in life to bring joy to someone, it is often about being thoughtful and appreciative! Doretha Bounds Burrell

Go there every March love it. Doesnt have to set you on fire at 70 dollars a night. Uncrowded in March makes you get a little more attention.

Let me start by saying I got an excellent price for staying at this hotel (almost 75% off). Also, I stayed during the off season, so my experiences may be different then others. But, even baring that, the hotel was just great. The room had wonderful stone floors, and a nice old fashion type look and feel (I don't have the best vocabulary, so forgive me if I don't use appropriate terms). We had a great view (room 501 if you can get it), and the staff was pleasant. Everything was clean (unlike other reviews that I had read), and the only negative I can think of was that the small amount off carpet that was in the room, was a little old. I don't see how this hotel is only rated as a 2 star hotel. I would say it's a 3 or 3.5, but that's just my opinion. Anyway, if your looking for the best, this hotel is not it. But, if you get a good deal, or you think $250 is a pretty good deal, I think this is a gem of a hotel.

We traded into this resort last fourth of July and had a wonderful time. Its a true 5* and would love to return....thinking about purchasing a timeshare here, much better than the others in the area!

Upon arriving at the hotel, we were impressed with the beautiful lobby and it's furnishings. That's where it stopped. The room keys never worked, the room was dirty,the floors looked like they were never cleaned, the bathroom was disgusting and the room was so hot you could hardly breathe. The hotel staff was not helpful at all. Luckily we could open a sliding door to try and get some air in the room. The pictures and descriptions on the internet are not what we encountered at all. I will never stay here again or recommend this hotel to anyone
