Boardwalk Beach Resort was an amazing location for our wedding. The facility was great and the onsite event coordinator, Nichol Hurst, was amazing! She delivered and provided the most helpful insights that made our day so successful and stress free. It was not easy to find an event space that could seat 200+ guests and this venue was spot on! FOOD was amazing and everyone from the Chef to our servers provided top notch service. ONE STOP shop for ceremony and reception venue!!! We actually got to do not 1 but 2 tastings entree and h'orderves.

I can't say enough good things about Larissa and the entire staff of The Boardwalk Beach Resort. Our wedding was just this past New Years and every single thing about it was amazing! The staff was so much fun to work with during the planning phase and the day of the wedding they handled every little detail flawlessly so I could just enjoy the day. Unbelievable staff! The staff was amazing they made sure everything was going good and made sure every one of our guests were ok as well as always making sure everyone had drink in their hand. Our guests are still raving about the food saying it was the best wedding food they have ever had! The grounds were amazingly beautiful and the weather was perfect. I would not change a single thing!!!
We could not imagine a better place for our wedding! Highly recommend!

Loved our wedding at Boardwalk Beach Resort. Overall, everything went smoothly for our destination wedding. However, some of our guests were really displeased at the condition of the hotel rooms and it appeared as though there was construction being done during our stay. Those who spoke up received new rooms. The condo is beautiful! The food, venue, and service really can't be beat, especially for the price.

Our ceremony was on the beach behind the Boardwalk and our reception was in the Sunset Pavillion. I guess you could say for the most past it was a destination wedding, so most of our guests stayed at the Boardwalk Condo or Hotel. The ceremony was beautiful, the pavillion ended up looking amazing, and everyone had a great time overall. However, I would NEVER recommend staying at the hotel. It was just one problem after another and really needs to be completely redone. The condo was awesome though. Everyone is still talking about how it was the best wedding they have ever been to. The food was great...and we added raw oysters with an oyster shucker, which ended up being a huge hit. Larissa was very helpful throughout our wedding planning process and really tried to ensure the concept for our wedding became a reality.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
