The staff was very courteous providing clear instructions at check in.All smiles all the time.!So much to do at Corsair and Cross Rip Resort! 2 outdoor and one indoor pools, 2 hot tubs and a rec room and gas firepit. Along w/ beautiful beachfront at Inman Beach and safe neighborhoods surrounding the resort, walking is a great way to spend some time meditating and taking in the " Cape Cod style" of life. Beautiful sunsets and pleasant fog makes it a bit damp but the daytime sun shines bright and balmy breezes blow! The resort is open year round and there are holiday celebration events, altho the restaurant / bar is closed during off season. All the rooms have a small deck w/ plenty of ocean view; my patio was poolside w/hottub in the Cross Rip building. Chairs and lounges Everywhere! Great cleaning staff, plenty of towels Frig. and Micro in room for bringing light snacks or take home from the local restaurants. Great food on the Cape! Off season makes it quiet yet still very friendly! Just what I needed to regroup and relax in gorgeous off season weather! 4 1/2 stars!

Staff was super accommodating at getting me & my daughter a great room for us. Loved the room & view. Pool was awesome & beach front was perfect! Only complaints were the Expedia site was slighty out of date for kids play room set up & they listed dvd in their room but they weren't available. These 2 things aren't listed on their site so I think it just needs an update on Expedia. We plan to go back next year!

Great location, so fun for families
Overall it was a great stay! We went with our 3.5 year old son, and another couple and shared a deluxe room - it was plenty roomy for us. We got in on a Tues right around lunch and our room was ready! Staff was extremely friendly. And we left on Sat morning. We were in the Corsair building on the first floor. Location was excellent and good amenities - love the bigger room fridge w/ freezer and the fact you could cook in your room! We did not utilize it much but we may do so next time. The only minor thing was they did not clean our room while we were there and I thought they would by the 3rd day. They could have come while the back door was deadbolted? I'm not sure. Prior to the 3rd day, they did stop by and check on our needs so we got a couple extra towels then, and emptied our trashes (filled up fast). I would recommend this resort and would definitely return!

Response from Mark on 11 Aug 2022
Hi Charles, Thank yo for taking the time to write to us. First, I would like to apologize that the stay with us did not meet your expectations, or for that matter, ours. I know the staff tries very hard to get it right and attend to any issues you might have. Most issues when they are brought to our attention can be resolved the first day. During the four nights you stayed with us we did not hear from you. You rented through Expedia a deluxe room without an ocean view that had a kitchenette (Stainless Steel appliances and granite counter top) two queen beds with our Serta Master Suite collection, and a sitting area with a kids sleeper couch. Everything in that room including carpeting and drapery were new within the past five years. I Know the days were sunny and humid - high 80;s when you were here. That may have lead to a damp feeling with the a/c on high and the outside door opening and closing. I do hope on those sunny 80 degree days you had chance to enjoy our award winning sandy beach, two out door pools/hot tubs and our recreation building with indoor pool and game room. I think the only thing you were missing was the ocean view to your room. Not all our rooms have ocean views and we try to communicate that in our rate structure (the lowest priced rooms do not have views), the narrative of the room, and the pictures we include. If you rely on third party web sites as your sole information you might have missed all the information about your room on the hotels site. Even a talk with a staff member after booking might have helped. We would very much like to have you back with an ocean view room next time. Just book directly with us and we'll upgrade you to an ocean view room at no additional charge. We can let you know at the time of booking which view room we have available so you can look at it on our website to approve. Again, as I started out to say, the staff and I are very sorry you were displeased. I hope we will get a chance to get it right for you. Wishing you and your family enjoyable future vacations. Best, Mark

Despite a nearly empty property in the fall, we were stuck in a room with no view, a very tricky entrance, and high traffic being the first room others had to pass. Our outdoor area was inside a giant vinyl fence vs adjacent to the pool, grass, or beach. The spotlight to this patio was super bright for getting an knfant to sleep. Fridge wasnt cold enough to store food and has signs asking not to adjust. Pool and hottub close at 6pm when you'll be at dinner at nearby seafood restaurants. The beach, however, is AMAZING! Chairs available, early morning walks allowed more distance onto other private beaches, awesome shells available at low tide, and quiet on the fall.

Hi Kyla, Thank you for taking the time to tell us about your experiences. So glad you were able to enjoy the stay despite the room location not meeting your expectations. We don't really stick people in rooms. The one you picked and reserved was a no view Superior room with a private fenced in Patio. If we only knew you were unhappy with that choice we could have reserved another location, including ocean view, for you. But again, based on budget and preferences we do not assume a guest is unhappy with the choice they make unless they tell us. I hope you will consider coming back and trying another location in the building that would suit your family better. Let us know and I can offer a free category upgrade to an ocean view room. Wishing you both a future of wonderful getaways. All my best, Mark Mark Downey, Gm www.corsaircrossrip.com

I was pleasantly surprised by this location. Our room was clean and spacious. There was a moldy smell to the room that we had to air out. We did bring our own cleaning products( Lysol and Clorox clean up) that definitely helped. The staff were all so nice and helpful. I can’t say enough about Ms. Bev !! The location was perfect!! Right on the beach and literally 20-60 mins away from from many of the places we wanted to go. We went from P-Town to Chatham and enjoyed every moment. The beach right outside the door was great. We used the outdoor pool and hot tub as well as the indoor pool. All the amenities are just steps away. It was also nice to have a full size kitchen to make some meals. Especially traveling with children.We will definitely be staying there again.

Good location, poor layout.
Received a phone call after making reservation and the woman implied that we were paying more than shown. When we arrived however the balance due after the deposit made was correct. I think she just explained it in a confusing manner. Check in was easy. Due to Covid, no daily housekeeping, but they were very good at replacing exactly what we left out for dirty towels, responded to a note for extra toilet paper, and picked up bagged trash from our door. Amenities were only two small bars of soap-no shampoo or other toiletries and no facial tissues. Hair dryer, small refrigerator with microwave on top almost out of reach. Room was small and table impeded access to closet. Large screen TV but only place to watch it was from the bed. Only two straight back chairs with the table and no other place to put them. Back door led to enclosed patio but it had not been cleaned recently and there was litter on the ground, tables, chairs, and barbecue grill were all dirty. Chairs in front near pool were in better shape and that area was clean. Pool was nice but we were in shoulder season and many days they never took the cover off. Beach was right there but was difficult to see and access was down a set of stairs. Indoor pool and recreation center across street. Many games but no pieces to play in sight. Pleasant surprise they had a piano there in good working condition. I am learning to play and would would have brought some sheet music. For the money a more comfortable room was expected.

Hi Mary, Thank you for taking the time to review your stay with us. Sorry for the delay in addressing this. I'm just finding out now my first attempt was rejected. We clearly did not meet your expectations, or ours, with respect to the accommodation functionality AND the cleanliness outdoors by your room. On behalf of the staff and myself really sorry your first experience was not better. Sometimes when these things don't go right the first time the guest tells us to give us the opportunity to make things right. I only wish we had that opportunity with you. In lieu of making things better before you left I would like to offer you both a complimentary upgrade to a larger room with an ocean view next time. I hope to hear back from you in the future so I can take good care of your needs. Thank you for staying with us. Again, my apologies it did not go as well as it should have gone. Best to you both, Mark

We really enjoyed our stay! Though the weather was kind of rainy, only one day of sun, we were very cozy in our suite and loved being able to make dinner in the full kitchen! The suite was super clean and being seaside meant even if drizzly we could sit under an umbrella to read a book and listen to the gentle waves on the Nantucket Sound. Think this is a great place for families with small children and groups
