This hotel is a scam of epidemic proportions. People will pay for mediocrity, so why try aanything else.

Some facts about Botel: 1. It is constructed completely out…read moreof cinderblocks. That includes the inside of your room, which might remind you of your dorm room in college, but with less personality or comfort. 2. Even though the Botel is a couple years old, it looks and functions like a 60s-era motel, with attendant rust stains. 3. They aren't big on privacy at the Botel. Like most Fire Island hotels, the bathroom is shared, which is expected. But your room may or may not have a lock with a key. If it does have a key, you might find your door opened anyway by another befuddled guest who was given the same key to the same room. In fact, the door to your room might not even close all the way. And if it does, someone might wander in and then try to suavely pretend that is normal and, "Nope, don't need anything, bye." 4. Your manager will claim this is not a big deal, because everyone is cool here. Residents of the island claim that stuff gets stolen from the Botel all the time. Who to believe? Nothing was taken from our room, but maybe that's because we left all of our valuables at a friend's house. 5. The beds are pretty comfortable and big. 6. The club gets quiet at 10, so thumping house won't be a problem. I'm not giving this place a one star, because I'm sure many people arrive and all they want is a place to pass out after partying until 6 am, and don't mind strangers wandering in and out. No hate on that, do your thing, but if you're wondering why this place is $100 cheaper than everything else, that's why. If you're looking to save a buck but want comfort/privacy, try AirBnB and Craigslist.

Recently renovated by new owners has transformed into a boutique hotel. The Fire Island Beach House offers beach bungalows, king standard, rooms, two queen standard rooms, duplex beach cabins and beach lounge suites. The landscaping is artificial grass or sand along with picnic tables, and lounges. They also have games for everyone, such as corn hole. What I really enjoyed was the poolside service. The servers are attentive and ready to attend you without leaving the pool area. The bar space has a laid-back beachy appeal with tables on a patio to enjoy drinks and meals. The beach is also enjoyable without the rules that exist at other Fire Island Beaches. The Hotel also provides chairs to bring onto the beach. Overall, we had a wonderful lodging experience, and we surely return next summer with family and friends.

Before I could even finish explaining that it was right next to the town, she cut me off, repeated that she didn't know, and immediately picked up the phone to disregard me. While I understand prioritizing renters, an associate should know basic details about the surrounding area, or at least offer to ask another staff member--what if a paying guest wanted to visit the Sunken Forest? I was actually considering booking a family stay here in the future, but due to this poor customer service and lack of local knowledge, I will be looking elsewhere. Otherwise, to be fair, the hotel did look nice and had a bumping scene. Hopefully they can make a better first impression on other future renters.
