Aqua Blue Hotel

The lobby smells. Front doors don’t work.. we stayed for 2 nights on the 3rd floor. Elevator marked inoperative 40% of the time, couldn’t use. Room condition ancient. Exterior room /deck area paint peeling badly worn. Pool unavailable and were told it’s under construction. Paid >$700for the 2 nights, I was totally ripped off. Don’t make the same mistake I did. Avoid.

The location was ideal, walking proximity to the beach and local restaurants and tourist sites. I would definitely stay here again.

Front desk agents, friendly but didn’t give us an overview of the property. Didn’t mention coffee in the lobby and didn’t mention the pool was closed. There was a deck area to sit, with a lot of seats and a nice view but it wasn’t maintained and the cushions were everywhere. There was caution tape on part of the railing. We had what would be considered a balcony but no access to the deck area. The windows in our room were huge, no curtains, just pull down roll shades. Since we were on the level of the deck everyone could see into our room. So the blinds stayed closed and the room felt Like we were in the basement. The bathroom was extremely small. A cruise ship has a bigger bathroom. The first morning we were woken up by the cleaning staff banging on all the doors announcing their service to clean. The doors are very thin and you can hear people opening and shutting the doors all morning and evening long. The cleaning staff was amazing and very attentive to anything we needed(towels). There are several shops to check out and restaurants close. if you are going to the beach the location is great but the hotel needs some updating for sure.

Excellent location. But this place needs work done. Outside paint peeling. Painting going on inside. The pool is being refurbished. The upper deck needs a reason to use it. Its been like this for a few years. They have their own parking lot, but with todays SUVs, its pretty crammed in.

Great location, friendly staff, clean room. My 2 teenagers loved the outdoor lounge on the second floor with beautiful views of the ocean.

The desk staff were especially helpful!

Good

That said, the location cannot be beat! So if your expectations are low, it's a great spot for walking to the town beach and the local restaurants.

Great location I felt sorry for the staff? The property is in bad shape needs total renovation!!

staff was amazing. place was out of date and stinky. pool closed. tvs don’t work. felt gross

Darla is great! She helped us get into our room several hours early.

Location

Clean room, poor check in, facility quite dated

Very good

Aqua Blue was an easy walk to several restaurants and shops

Great location. The room was clean and comfortable. Staff were helpful and responsive. Overall it needs updating. The hallways were hot and had a bad smell.

Clean room balcony was great and room was great

Location! Staff. No pool (under repair), no restaurant (under construction), no hooks or towel racks in bathroom. Loose electric plugs, tv remote not functioning

The view alone is worth every penny. Dream vacation! So easy to get to Newport for a day trip as well. Aqua blue has the cutest coffee shops and boutiques within walking distance as well. The sunrise is my new wallpaper lol, incredible stay!

It’s a great location! Spring for the balcony and water view. It’s def worth it!
