A Very Pleasant Experience
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 9/10/09
After reading several reviews of this resort, I was mentally prepared for a dump. Upon arrival, I was pleasantly surprised. After checking in, (our room wasn't ready because we arrived at 9:30 am and checkin is customarily at 3pm) we were told we could go and wait by the pool. Since the sun was shining and we already had our swimsuits on, we made our way to the pool. Through cute little walkways and lovely flowers planted tastefully throughout, we reached the very clean, heated pool. Situated at the foot of the ocean sand just several steps above this enormous expanse of the Atlantic Ocean, the decking and its numerous lounge chairs made it an inviting and comfortable place to enjoy the spectacular view. My preconceived fears about this place was quickly alleviated when we were able to get into our room by about 12:30pm. The room was pleasantly done without any smell of mildew or anything else. We had two comfortable queen size beds, a bath, a terrace with sliding doors overlooking the ocean. It was freshly painted with moulding all around. Remembering that this is a BEACH resort, we felt that the accomodations were comfortable, very clean, and the staff was very friendly and helpful. My husband and I had a wonderful stay at the Atlantic Terrace, and would recommend it as a great place to stay in Montauk. We plan on going back for many years to come!
