Review: Blockade Runner Beach Resort

ARRIVAL/CHECK-IN: I had no trouble spotting Blockade Runner Beach Resort because of its sheer size. It’s not the most attractive building as viewed from the sound side, but don’t let that fool you. The beauty of this property is best seen on the ocean side. With its height and sweeping views, the hotel offers both ocean and sound views, depending upon which side you are staying. I was surprised to be greeted by a doorman, as this isn’t something I have encountered at any beach hotel I’ve been to on the East Coast. The resort also offered free valet service when the parking lot was full.
