The owners were very nice and friendly without being too much. Our room was fine it’s close to the pleasure park about 10 minute stroll and the beach just over the road we had a sea view and looked out over the lights. We had plenty of tea coffee and milk in our room. The room was clean and fresh and the cost was good. The stairs are steep up to the rooms no lift but someone offered to take our bags up. So not a problem. Very nice experience.
Tips:We ate at weatherspoons just beyond the pleasure park. It was cheap the food was ok and we were served fast. The breakfast was ok. The tram ran just over the road and that went straight down the sea front stopping at various landmarks. There was parking outsIde the hotel but that was busy we parked on the main road £1 an hour free from 8pm -10am. A very good spot.

Just upset by lack of facilities which is the reason we booked this hotel. And no breakfast option. However it was a very good location and super clean and comfy.
Tips:Perfect location for the pleasure beach and the sandcastle.
Would Recommend: No
Owner Response:We are glad you enjoyed your stay with us and we are sorry that the dining and bar lounge area where closed due to unfortunate flooding. The good news is that we have refitted the lounge area, which just needs painting and decorating and that will be ready by the weekend. Please accept our apologies for the inconvenience caused.

The couple who owns the place went above and beyond for my 30th birthday balloons banners flowers etc. the hotel was cosey clean had everything we needed! The staff accommodated us the best they could with parking which meant the owner moved her own car just so we could park. 1000% id stay again and will be returning! I’m normally a fussy person who has some thing to say but I had the best weekend away me and my partner. So thank you for being friendly kind helpful,

Absolutely 10/10 we would love to stay again - the service was great/ the room had a great view and everything you could possibly need/ the continental and cooked breakfasts were lush and the puppy was v cute!! 😊
Tips:I'd highly recommend going on a Saturday night to the Comedy Station Comedy Club - it is within walking distance but they have a taxi if you prefer and it truly is as good as the reviews!
Would Recommend: Yes

Travelling as a couple,this was a very clean hotel. Room was on the top floor without a sea view but spent a very little time in the room so it didn't matter. It was very quiet at night and the bed was comfortable. Room had tea and coffee facilities and a hairdryer. You can request additional toiletries for a small charge. Location was a little further than expected from central Blackpool but the tram stop is very close. Great hotel location if you want to spend time at the Pleasure Beach and the Sandcastle waterpark. There is free on street parking beside the hotel and the side streets. We didn't have breakfast and didn't see it offered.
Would Recommend: Yes
Owner Response:We are glad you enjoyed your stay with us and we look forward to seeing you again in the future. Because of the kitchen and dining room refit we couldn't offer breakfast. However both facilities are open and we will be offering breakfast and evening meals.

During our stay, for 3 nights, we really only needed to have contact with our host's when arriving and departing. But felt they were always available if required. On the day we arrived, Jim informed us there was a repair being carried out on the hot water system. The job was completed that day, we were out but were kept informed by text. No complaints,great service and great host's. 🙂
Tips:If arriving by train, get the Blackpool South train and get off at Pleasure Beach stop. Then a 3 minute walk to hotel. Tram stop outside hotel with regular (every 15 mins) service right through to Fleetwood. £6 for an adult all day ticket. Could be a lovely walk, but it poured down the 3 days we were there. We were just unlucky.☹

This is perfect for familys, we arrived 2 adults and 2 children (9 + 7) for 1 night for a blackpool break the hosts are so welcoming and make you feel part of their family, kids loved playing with their adorable puppy they also had an air hockey table set up for kids to play with. The place was absolutely spotless and comfortable, we had a beautiful family room that looked out to the beach. We will definitely book here again for our next trip and will look happy to see the hosts again.

Both hosts are the most friendliness people, they went above and beyond to makes us comfortable and we felt at home!
Tips:So ocean Bay is on the promenade and not far from attractions. My advise is get the tram for travelling back and forth all day for 6 pounds a day, also its not far to walk if you prefer, the sea is literally across the road, the staff at the b&b are always there if you need them! 😀

The owners here are really lovely always welcoming and friendly, I came with my husband, my son and his friend so wanted a room to be able To accommodate that and they gave us a fabulous room which had a dividing wall so we still had privacy. The breakfast was lovely you can choose a full breakfast or the continental. There is a few games there so the boys could play pool or air hockey after we got back from busy days that was great as the boys still had energy but I needed rest, there’s also a tv area, and a front conservatory to watch the world go by. The property is on the front so sea views are really nice.
Tips:Blackpool is full of things to do but I would recommend coral island as it has a pub/restaurant where under 10’s eat free. No shortage of places to choose for food if you don’t want to eat in arcade it can be very busy. If you want night life ( no kids ) I recommend shannanigans great Irish bar near the tower ! We can’t wait to return again next year and will 100% be returning to ocean bay

Staff really helpful and friendly. Tram stop opposite so you can jump on and head straight into town. Location is perfect if you are wanting to attend the pleasure beach or sandcastle water park. There was no signal on the TV in our room but we weren’t too bothered as we weren’t there to watch Tv
Tips:5-10 minute walk to the pleasure beach and sandcastle water park. Tram stop opposite for anything further afield.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the OceanBay. Staff were so helpful and accommodating and nothing was too much trouble. The twin room we had was small but functional, clean and well presented. I have only one mild criticism in that the paid breakfast was quite basic and not competitively priced. (A full English without bacon?) It would have been an added bonus feature and completely satisfactory if the breakfast had been included in the room price.
Tips:Due to it's location, we used the tram service at least twice every day of our stay to get to Central and North Pier. We found it great value to get a day saver, or if you are staying longer than our 3 day visit, I would advise getting a multi journey saver.

Sue and Jim were so welcoming and offered help and advice for things to do on my trip . The hotel was clean and comfortable 😌 will definitely stay again !
Tips:The hotel has a tram stop right outside so can easily take a tram to the far end of Blackpool. Ocean Bay is a 5 minute walk to shops and restaurants and only a 10 minute walk to South pier and pleasure Beach.... everything you need on the doorstep buy just far enough out that its quiet to get a good night's sleep.

Excellent location for all of Blackpool’s main tourist attractions, all within a short walking distance. Right on the sea front, very clean guesthouse and the surrounding area. We had a sea view which was lovely opening the curtains and waking up to. The room was very spacious & comfortable. Just perfect for us and the kids enjoyed playing pool & karaoke too. Great bar area and comfortable, cozy lounge. Will definitely recommend.
Tips:We found a lovely American diner along the strip called Lites Diner. Excellent food at a great price and very friendly staff. We visited the pleasure beach, Sandcastle Water Park, Blackpool Tower. We parked our cars at the beginning of the holiday and didnt use them again until we went home. The cars were parked safe and secure. This was great as we were able to walk everywhere as everything was so close by.

The Hotel was very cosy and well situated on South shore, Jim and sue were very friendly, the breakfast was lovely, there was a good choice of breakfast cereal, which was followed by a cooked breakfast if you wanted one, the young lady who served our breakfast was very pleasant and friendly, I would highly recommend the Ocean Bay Hotel if you prefer a quieter location.
Tips:The Ocean Bay Hotel is situated on South shore which is near South pier and pleasure Beach, the Weatherspoon pub and restaurant is about a ten minute walk from the hotel, and offers a good choice of food from the menu, and not too expensive, great for families!

Very clean and modern room, with en suite, flat screen tv, tea and coffee, and the hotel is on the seafront. Free parking outside when available, and a tram stop outside front of the hotel. Great breakfast, with plenty of choice. Owners are great, friendly, and nothing is too much for them. This is the only hotel we have returned to in Blackpool, and hope to return to again in September. Bar is well stocked, and there is air hockey for the kids. Great hotel and owners, see you soon Steven, Gail and Megan.

This was our second time staying at ocean bay. We had a wonderful stay and made very welcome and felt safe and homely. Will be staying again for sure and recommend to everyone we know.
Tips:Ocean bay is at south end past the pleasure beach and is a easy short tram ride to south pier and further for central. You can get group 24hr tickets which are beneficial for if there is more than 2 of you. Lots of places to eat around south, central and north. We ate at Dutton arms which was very much like weatherspoons. We also ate at Michael wans Mandarin restaurant at north end which was the best chinese we have ever had and it has won awards to prove how good it is. Lots to do on the piers and places to drink etc.

Lovely hotel and friendly owners. We stayed in a Family Room with Sea View for 3 and it was fab, really spacious, lots of storage and very clean. The bar was handy on a night and the dining room can be used on a night to eat your own food. Free parking outside the hotel subject to spaces available but we parked ok all weekend. Thank you for a great stay
Tips:We went to Blackpool FC bar to watch the England match and that was great. Blackpool Tower Eye and 4D cinema was great fun. We used the trams a few times and they are simple and easy and £2.10 per journey no matter how far down the line your going. There are menus in the dining room at the hotel for local takeaways, we used Just Eat to order and got it delivered and ate in the dining room with plates & cutlery provided. It was the perfect option for a night when we were too tired from walking to go out anywhere!

I and husband came for a weekend in Blackpool to celebrate our paper anniversary and the experience surpassed our expectations. We had a really nice stay at Ocean Bay which was pleasantly surprising as I was really skeptical about staying here because we usually use Premiere Inn, however the closest ones were fully booked by the time we booked. Sue was very kind and helpful, she's the perfect host. Her full English was quite good, sadly we only got to eat it just once. Missy who helped with the breakfast service - was a darling. If I have any complain it's that I found our room bit stuffy.
Tips:There's so much to do in Blackpool. The Pleasure Beach is a must go. I'd recommend the Blackpool Tower Dungeon and Blackpool Tower Eye.

Staff Scott and Jordan were friendly and welcoming hosts, Helpful too if you had an issue and sorted it out quickly. Had no problems with this little hotel at all, the room was clean and tidy and the beds were comfortable. Me and My boy never had breakfast on our stay, but it did smell nice one morning! wish I had at least 1 breakfast to try. I would stay here again as its in perfect location for the pleasure beach.
Tips:It is a lovely little hotel, very clean and tidy, stayed in a twin room with sea view which is a nice room, also clean and tidy. Never had breakfast on my stay so cant comment on this. Purpose of our stay was to be near the pleasure beach and its 5 mins away. Perfect. Also near the south pier which is good and lots of things to do.

Spotlessly clean, very friendly staff. If i had to say one thing it would be the fact that the young girl serving breakfast could use a little help as she was a little flustered at times, which lead to a few little minor issues, late with toast, drinks etc, other than that she did a grand job. Breakfast delicious room quiet apart from the room next door coming in early hours and waking all three of us up, not good on the day when we drive back to hull tired... Other than that spot on....

Loved the hotel so much that we are only going to stay there my wife is fussy about hotels and the cleanest hotel we have stayed in. Perfect hosts Perfect hotel and the breakfast are fantastic great choice. The staff are so helpful that they will help you in everything you ask them they will Help you so much. We where late on getting food delivered that they said to us that we good use the hotel dinning room if it arrived in time but it never so they left lights on for us while we waited on food arriving. So for us we are definitely coming back we will only stay at the acean bay hotel for sure sue and the team are brilliant and would recommend them to anyone who goes to Blackpool the best hotel in the place. Thank you guys.
Tips:Every thing perfectly easy to get to pleasure beech easy access . tram is across the road plus you only pay for one way travel or pay to go back. We only paid going and then paid coming back.

Ocean Bay is situated in such an amazing location. Just far enough from the hustle and bustle of the main piers but close enough to walk to all the main attraction and with a team stop located just outside the hotel. My room, a double was spotless. Beautifully decorated with a full compliment of kettle, coffee etc and even products in the bathroom which was spotless also. The view from the windows was directly toward the beach - exactly what I wanted. The bed was so comfortable I had the best nights sleep in a while - that was a shock as I’m a dreadful sleeper normally. Sue and the staff could not have been more welcoming. I opted for the breakfast which when I came down was beyond what I expected with continental spread, a coffee machine with every kind of coffee imaginable and my cooked breakfast cooked just perfect. I needed a quiet break away with the option to sight see and Ocean Bay was the perfect choice. I definitely will be returning.
Tips:Ocean Bay is located just past the South Pier and the Pleasure Beach which is around a ten minute walk or the tram stop is directly outside which also takes you to Central and North Pier where the majority of bars, restaurants and cafes are located alongside the expected amusements, casinos etc. Everything really is able to be visited on foot and there is plenty to keep all ages occupied. ATMs are located everywhere and there are a handful of local shops around the hotel easily accessible by foot

It would be great if we can choose the breakfast time. 9 am is too early for leisure trip.
Tips:Take a tram to north pier and walk back. So you won't miss anything. Better book the restaurant in advance. It's hard to find place to eat during this time. Bring winter clothes as the weather can change quickly around here. Don't eat at Casa Franco. It's not value for money at all. Better go further to north pier for good restaurants there.

We had a fab room with seaview, wonderful view of the sea. The breakfast they provide is excellent, plenty of choice and fresh produce, yummy!!! The location is great and is nice and quiet. They have plenty of knowledge for attractions to see and restaurants to eat out. Transport links are located just across the road as well as the promenade. I would highly recommend this hotel for any length of time your stay is. Me and my partner thoroughly enjoyed our stay here.

So to the staff thank you very much for a first class stay and hope to come soon your all brilliant and wonderful hosts.

We filled in a breakfast sheet when we arrived which they did for our 2 night stay and you can change it if you don’t want the same everyday, also cereal, toast, tea/coffee machine and fridge with Yogurts and juices. Very nice bar/lounge and prices reasonable. Anything you wanted was never to much trouble, will definitely stop again.
Tips:It’s not far from the pleasure beach, there is a Pizza Hut and a fish and chip shop a short walk away. We went to a Wetherspoon called the velvet coaster across from the south pier, which had great food and service with outdoor/balcony seating area.

Stayed 1 night for a birthday celebration and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Although it is a way out from the centre it was very easy to get the tram across the road and that's what we did. It was the best place I have ever stayed in Blackpool. The breakfast was amazing with so much choice. Lovely towels lovely bedding, all in all an excellent stay very enjoyable. Thankyou and well done

As soon as you walk in you feel at home. Warm and welcoming with a "Here if you need us" approach. Well sound insulated bedrooms that have all you need and beds are VERY comfortable. Housekeeping service great. Clean, well organised and discrete. Nothing flashy or ostentatious, just perfect comfort. Great location on the sea front but quiet although only a short walk to pleasure beach and a leisurely stroll, by sea front or through razzmatazz to piers and tower.
Tips:Once you have exhausted your senses and finances in the Blackpool experience, go southward to beach and stroll along towards Lytham just to chill out. Enjoy just watching the glitter ball reflect the sea and sky.. And we are sure we saw it amazingly lit up one evening Take the tram to Fleetwood. Just a couple of minutes south of the hotel is the Solaris Centre where there is the most wonderful café. Good selection of tasty food and cakes at great price and in a most relaxing atmosphere. Healthier and more affordable than fast food on promenade. Plus your money is going to a worthy cause. Books available to read while having a coffee .. no sense of being rushed and a complete contrast to the main promenade. Is also dog friendly.

Friendly, helpful and welcoming owners. A very clean and comfortable hotel in a quiet convenient location. The breakfast was delicious and we could help ourselves to toast and drinks which was good as at most hotels the toast is brought out too early and soon goes cold. A nice touch was that we could bring back takeaways and eat them in the smart, warm dining room where there was music playing quietly in the background.
Tips:We had a room with a sea view so that was great and we could also see the lights. It was a short walk to the Pleasure Beach, South Pier etc. It was the Heritage Tram weekend and so we had rides on several old trams that ran as far as Fleetwood, which they don't normally do. We had a happy afternoon at the beautiful Tower Ballroom eating cake and coffee while watching the dancers. There was lots to see and do nearby and we had trips on local buses to Fleetwood, Cleveleys, Lytham and St Annes which are lovely seaside towns with character and individual shops and cafes.

Jim and Sue are a lovely couple who obviously work very hard to maintain the hotel to meet and exceed their customers expectations. The room had an excellent view of the sea and a short walking distance of the Pleasure beach. As a roller coaster freak of 59 years old I hope to visit them soon as Icon ride had not been opened when I visited Blackpool.
Tips:The Weatherspoons pub (Velvet Coaster)is about 15 minutes walk away serves and excellent food, ales and wines all day long. Other eating places is a vegan restaurant a short walk from the hotel. Most shops are tourist orientated offering fish and chips, sticks of rock, etc. Transport services are very good as the Tram and Bus routes is a short distance from the hotel. (less than a minute walk)

Had a four night stay with our 5 year old granddaughter and had a great time, Jim and Sue were perfect hosts and couldn't do enough to ensure our stay was first class. The location is great, less than 100 metres from the nearest tram stop, ideal when you have a 5 year old who wants to visit every attraction, the Tower is less than 15 minutes by tram. Our room had a great sea view and was spotless, fresh towels, complimentary toiletries and tea/coffee facilities. Sue does a lovely cooked breakfast and there is also a great selection of cereals, toast, yoghurts, fruit and juices available. The hotel has a small but very comfortable bar which Jim keeps well stocked and prices are very reasonable. Limited parking is available but we had no trouble finding a space during our stay. Overall we had a great stay and would definitely return to the Ocean Bay the next time we visit the area.

This was our first stay ever in a bnb and it was so nice! We are a young couple but would also be suitable for older couples. The location was perfect, on the sea front close to all the major attractions. (It was free parking outside the hotel too.) Lovely sunset view from our window!! The hotel was extremely clean and lovely pleasant staff. A mini bar and pool table with music. The breakfast was nice and piping hot. Will defiantly return to this hotel! Great value for money :)

This bed and breakfast completley exceeded our expectations! Owner was very friendly and accommodating, making myself and my family feel very welcome. We had a family room with sea view which was perfect and very clean!. Location was excellent for our planned trip to the pleasure beach and free parking was available outside the bed and breakfast. Breakfast was excellent with a wide range of hot and cold food on offer. We will definitely be going back to this bed and breakfast and we have already recommended to our friends and family!!
Tips:Pleasure beach only a five minute walk from bed and breakfast.
Would Recommend: Yes
Owner Response:Thank you so much Laura for a fabulous review, it was lovely to have you all stat with us xxx

Stayed for dance comp so close to winter gardens venue was only a tram ride away. Only disappointment was only continental breakfast offered as no cooked breakfasts were available until 9am which wasn't good for us as we had to be at dance venue for 8am.
Tips:Buy a day tram ticket, well worth it.
Would Recommend: Yes
Owner Response:Hi Laura, thank you for your review x can I just mention that you booked room only no breakfast was booked, I did offer to put on toast and cereal at 7.30am for you which you declined. Majority of our guest do actually prefer a later breakfast as they are holiday makers, it is so difficult to please everyone xx

We had a lovely few days at the ocean bay hotel sue and Jim where very friendly and professional. The only thing we found a problem with was the room was a little bit small! As we did book a double on line and even though there was a double bed in the room it was to close to the wall! So we found it hard climbing over each other to use the toilet during the the night.

I can honestly say that this hotel is an absolute gem. It is within walking distance to the pleasure beach yet far enough out that the level of noise at night was just passing traffic. There was free parking (which is always a bonus)The room we stayed in was the family room with a view of the sea and it was spotless and well presented with a decent sized bathroom. As for the landlord and lady, what a lovely couple who make a great full English breakfast and again in lovely clean surroundings. I would, without any hesitation recommend this lovely little hotel and will definately stay there again on our next visit to Blackpool.

Very pleasant hosts and room extremely clean. Did however feel that the room was very small and basic for the price, and could have got an all inclusive deal for not much more. Just some constructive criticism and am being honest. The room definitley needed modernising, touch of paint/ bathroom updating etc. Never stayed in such a small double room for the price, seemed more like a single room with a bed crammed in. Am sure it is such a competitive market for places to stay and i think there will be many more places in Blackpool at that price which have bigger/more modern rooms. For the size of the room/decor etc i would have expected to pay £50 per night. Thank you

Sue and Jim were friendly and helpful, we didn't see a lot of them but they had offered help if we needed it.
Tips:Tram stop is just across the road and at £5 for a day pass we found this very reasonable. I'm afraid the weather was awful for us, so travelling on the tram was very useful. We weren't wanting to spend a lot on meals so fish and chips was our first night meal. Harry Ramsdens was our venue, but can't say I would recommend it. Whilst the meal was ok there was an unpleasant smell about the place.
Would Recommend: Yes

Really enjoyed our weekend stay. Our rooms were clean and comfortable, breakfasts were plentiful, and hosts Sue and Jim very hospitable and helpful. only one minor niggle - could have used some hooks in en-suite for towels but not a real problem as radiator kept towels lovely and warm.
Tips:South Shore is a decent walk from main attractions but not a problem if active, make use of the tram service (across the road) - great value for money from £5 per day of unlimited travel. We has a really good night at the Sands - dinner and a show - and the theatre was brilliant on a rainy afternoon.
Would Recommend: Yes
Owner Response:Thank you c glad you all enjoyed your stay x we will be adding more hooks in our bathrooms and above raidators xxx

Although our room was small for three people it was excellently equipped and had everything you need for a stay in Blackpool. Both owners were friendly and welcoming and Jim was great in then evenings in the bar to chat to. I am really fussy about breakfast ~ greasy plates etc but can honestly say that this is the best I have ever had in Blackpool. Beautifully presented and tasted excellent. Would definitely recommend the Ocean Bay

I really enjoyed my stay.. Nice atmosphere.i have No faults with this hotel, I think the best part is the cleanliness! Being a bit of a hygiene freak it's the bit I most dread but when I felt very at home at ocean bay and I did arrive earlier than expected (ooups) but they made it no problem and accommodated me and my 2 toddlers ASAP.aswell as the option for a late check out also helped.other guests were nice too.Definatly recommend!! Thanx :)
Tips:It is only £2.00 on the tram to go up to the central pier not far.although this hotel is close to south pier which has lots of fun and rides too which we enjoyed

Grate little place to stay for a long weekend will defiantly be booking again next time we are over sue and her team are nice pleasant people the room are nice and modern the only couple of down falls are I booked a sea view room we got it just not high enough to see the full potential of the sea views. to use the ironing board and iron I had to use it in the dining room witch I had to ask how I go about doing it due to it not being in the room pervaded and wasn't given the information up on booking in to the hotel also we was out late in southport at the fire work display got back and had to get a breakfast menu are selves as it wasn't left in are room after it was cleaned had to look around the reception on the back wal just would of expected it being left in the bed or bedside cabinet nothing more to say grate place, nice bedroom, nice customer service with a smile witch is important what more can you ask for thank you the Hardman family
Tips:Would defiantly recommend the fire work display in southport ok it's about a hours drive from Blackpool and there are places nearer to stay but for a long weekend away with kids you have all of Blackpool and a trip out to southport for the day/night

Just a small bit nothing to bad , just my wife could not use the hairdryer near the mirror as it was not near a plug to use the hairdryer. Apart from that nothing it was a good place to stay ,we had a sea view just a great place to stay close to pleasure beech and tram stop a few yards away from us. The tram takes you all the way up to the south peir and north peir ,it is a good hotel to stay staff great very helpful and great people we will want to stay again as it is the closest hotel we wanted ,it is just a pity no evening meals was extra as it would bring in more money as a good home made meal for visitors to stay at the hotel.
Tips:Make sure you look for a parking is limited and you could end up parking no way near your hotel ,what we did was arrive at 3.30 pm just took the last place ,then in the morning you look at the street for spaces we just took the car out early and then left the cat close too the hotel.

Tips:Based in South end so very handy for the Pleasure Beach, Sandcastle & South Pier, just a 5-8 minute walk to Pleasure Beach, there is a tram stop just over the road that you could jump on to take you down to Blackpool Central or North! Lots of takeaway type restaurants or sit in Restaurants nearby, & if you stay in the front rooms of the hotel you will have a sea view ;-)

We really enjoyed our weekend stay. We parked with ease, loved our room with sea view. I liked our location as even though we did quite a bit if walking it was nice to be somewhere so quiet and tranquil. Booking through your website was easy and meant that we got a 10% discount and our breakfast included in the price! The choice for breakfast was brilliant and you got our cooked breakfast out to us quickly and all together for the 6 of us despite us having seperate rooms. It would have been nice to have fresh towels for the second day but it wasn't a problem as I bought towels from home. I would 110% recommend your hotel and we would definitely stay again!! Thank you!!
Tips:The velvet coaster wetherspoons is amazing!! Uber fast service and so affordable! We got blackpool resort passes for £55 per person a week before and that got us entry to blackpool tower with 4d experience, the tower dungeons, pleasure beach and nickolodean land, madam tussards and sea life centre!! Brilliant value and so much to do in blackpool!!
Would Recommend: Yes
Owner Response:Thank you Kylie for a fab review. Sorry about the towels but if you had put your towels in the shower tray on the morning we would of gave you fresh towels when we serviced your room, if they are hung up we presume that you will reuse them as the majority of our guests will do.... It was lovely having you all, hope to see you again soon xx

It does become really hard for use sometimes, with some people who do not respect us or our property, this is not just a hotel its our lovely home.

Warm nd friendly greeting makes all the difference and that is what we git. room clean, fresh towels, good sea view, I really liked the set up for breakfast. Only small criticism would be is to have longer serving time at breakfast. It was fine fir us as a couple but if I had brought the children it would have been better for it to be more flexible rather than a 15 minute window. Would definately recommend to family and friends.
Would Recommend: Yes
Owner Response:Thank you Gemma for your review, depending how busy the hotel is and how many guests we have for breakfast decides whether we extend the breakfast time, cooked food is served within 15 min or 30 mins depending on how many guests for breakfast. We oven cook all our sausages so I like to get the food out as fresh as possible, breakfast is never before 9am, I know most hotels start breakfast at 8.15 to 9.15....Once in our dining room there is no limit has to how long you can stay and enjoy your breakfast.

Me and my wife arrived at the hotel we had to park a mile away even tho they say it's free parking . We where greeted by a nice women who showed us to our room . Room number 11 which had a great view of alley way with a pitbull dog which if you like getting woke up at 7am by barking is ideal for you. The room was nice has everything you need. Altho my wife accidently got make-up on one of the towels. Next day the room was cleaned well I say cleaned same sheets same towels etc. But the cleaner had put the dirty towel on out bed with a packet of wipes which I found really rude. Next day we asked could we have the breakfast which we thought was part of the £116 that we paid for the 2 days but no I came home to find that they had taken an extra £13 out my account including £1 foe using my card which I did not give permission to use. When we where leaving they didn't ask me for any money breakfast . I am really disappointed as it was a nice hotel bit defently woudknt go back or recommend to any friends or family . Very unfortunate as we go to blackpool on a regular basis
Would Recommend: No
Owner Response:Hi Paul, sorry you was not happy with your stay. On our description it says "with free limited roadside parking". You booked our small back room not our sea view room, so unfortunately you look out onto the back yard. Next door do have a staffordshire bull terrier sorry I have no control over that. Our white fluffy towel was covered in foundation I supply make-up wipes and a dark coloured towel so this does not happen, but for some reason your girlfriend chose to wipe her face with the white towel. The rooms are serviced on a daily basis, we do not change sheets daily, if used dirty towels are put in the shower tray on a morning then fresh towels will be given, most guests will reuse their towels, the face wipes were put with the towel that was covered in foundation as a reminder that these should be used. As regards breakfast, when you arrived I said you had booked room only and would you like to add breakfast, but you said you would not be up in time, so you declined, you telephoned down at 8.55 am asking if you could have breakfast, which we obliged. On your departure you left your key on reception and continued to walk out, I shouted goodbye to you, you answered back but no offer to pay for breakfast, so I added it to your bill, was that wrong of me? if you did not want a card charge of £1 you should not of left without paying...£116 for 2 nights in Blackpool July/Aug and on Fri/Sat £58 per night..£29 each....BARGAIN....Just to point out you/girlfriend spilt some drink of some sort over the white duvet and on the throw, which had to be soaked for 2 days so it wouldn't stain, I feel that you did not respect our property.

This is a gem of a hotel. It is clean, comfortable and the proprietors are very friendly. The breakfast is fantastic! Guests make their own toast and help themselves to brioche, yogurts, fresh fruits, fresh fruit juice and coffee and tea - and cooked breakfast made to order! A great start to the day. Our room was small but cosy. It was cleaned and bed made everyday. There was a hairdryer in the room and toiletries in the bathroom (a 5* touch), and Wifi code. The proprietors had thought of everything to make your stay comfortable. The bedding was clean and crisp, and towels fluffy.
Tips:The location of the hotel is great for those (like us) who wanted to be near the Pleasure Beach but far enough away from the din of hen parties etc. The proprietors recommended restaurants to go to and places to visit. Very helpful if you don’t know Blackpool.

Basic but adequate accommodation that would benefit from an upgrade but it was clean. The hosts were pleasant / friendly and they provided a lovely breakfast.
Tips:The Big Attraction ticket is a must and if you buy it online you'll save 50%. Madame Tussauds, Tower Dungeon, Tower Circus and Sealife Centre are excellent. We saw 'The Legends' at Sands, The Venue ( nr the Tower) and this was great value. Buy a daily ticket for the tram and you can get on and off as you wish. There is a stop just across from the hotel.

Lovely hotel clean and fresh with helpful staff with good ideas, letting visitor use plate and dinning room for takeaways . Breakfast was nice but not a lot of it. I thought this may be should be based on 8 item breakfast not just 1 of each item even if you only want 4 items you still only got 1 of each.
Would Recommend: Yes
Owner Response:Hi Paula x thank you for your comments x We do have 8 items for breakfast, if you only choose 4 items i will put the 4 items on your plate, i did ask you (like i do with all my guests) if i could get you anything else, your are welcome to ask for more, if i double up on your breakfast you may of only be a light eater, in that case the food would of been wasted x On arrival you filled in a breakfast form if you knew you wanted lets say 2 sausages you could of stated that xxx

Very pleasant stay at the Ocean View with a sea view. Location is quiet, which is what we wanted, and yet it was so near the buzz of Blackpool with both bus and tram stops nearby. Room was quite small, but fine. Managed to get a parking space quite easily as several hotels round about are currently closed. Hosts very pleasant and helpful. Help yourself breakfast with plated choice of Full English cooked breakfast. Very good value.
Tips:Lovely promenade to walk along, illuminations on the go and Pleasure Beach close by. Chose to eat in Lytham and then local Italian restaurant as, whilst there are plenty of food outlets, not so many nice restaurants around the hotel.

Lovely & hospitable stay. Breakfast was great very filling!! Rooms were very clean & beds very comfortable.
Tips:The hotel is a little on the edge of the busy 'golden mile', but better placed as the noise from the main stretch is minimal so it is quieter for sleeping. It's a lovely refreshing walk along the promenade to the bustle of the shops, restaurants & bars; but nice to come back to some relaxing peace & quiet!
Would Recommend: Yes
Owner Response:Thank you Susan for a lovely review x hope to see you all soon xxxx

A most enjoyable stay. Jim and Sue run an excellent hotel and are a lovely friendly couple. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone and will most certainly be staying there again whenever I'm in Blackpool. First class food and spotlessly clean. A lovely cosey bar too. What else can I say? Oh and excellent location too with a fabulous view of the seafront!

As soon as we got to ocean bay we felt so welcome, sue and jim are lovely and treated us like family. The beds were comfy i had the best sleep, its clean and homely, we had a lovely room with a view of the sea it was beautiful. We had a full english breakfast in the morning and it was lovely we could have cerial first and as much toast and tea with it. Weve already booked to go again and would never stay anywhere else now. I highly reccomend ocean bay u wont be dissapointed :)
Tips:Ocean bay is right on the sea front, not too close to the pleasure beach but not too far away its just right, about a 3min walk. Theres plenty of pubs, resturaunts, sandcastle water park, madame tussauds, sealife world pleasure beach etc. theres loads to do with the family
Would Recommend: Yes
