Maryland Villas | Places to Stay in Maryland

April 18, 2023 Jacquiline Delozier

Maryland is known as “America in Miniature” because of its great variations in topography and culture. This makes it a perfect east coat travel destination for those who would like to experience a little bit of everything. From amusement parks, to beaches, to mountains and historical sites, there is plenty to see and do. Each region of Maryland provides its own unique and fun activities to do. If you're headed for some fun in the sun in Ocean City on its eastern coast, be sure not to miss the Ocean City Beach, the Boardwalk, or Trimper's Rides and Amusement Park for an all-ages fun experience. Central Maryland is home to a Six Flags theme park, the Annapolis Golf Club, and countless hubs of art and culture such as the African Art Museum and Annapolis Opera, Inc. Heading to western Maryland? It is perfect for lovers of nature and the outdoors, with the Washington Monument State Park, Wisp Resort ski slopes, and the spectacular Muddy Creek Falls.

Overpriced, misleading marketing, rundown, poor food options and pool and pool area is disgusting

Reviewed By amL3443NS

Research what is open on the days you are visiting between the slopes, snow tubing, restaurants, store hours, all of it. It changes from day to day. The food options in the hotel are so overly priced for what’s worse than fast food standards. If you want anything decent, you’ll have to leave the hotel. The hours of the places within the hotel are ridiculous too, they close between 5 and 7pm. The pool was murky and there were clumps of hair floating around, dirt, mud and all kinds of gross stuff allover the floor surrounding the pool. My kids didn’t even want to swim again after one night of hanging out at the pool. The tub/shower in our room was clogged and it would flood up when we tried to shower for a couple of minutes and the water barely got warm. When we arrived in our room, the floor definitely hadn’t been vacuumed; there were remnants of food from the previous people on the floor. When I made the reservation online it said that we would get one free lift ticket or a free lesson and when I inquired about it over the phone after I booked our reservation, they said no, that wasn’t right. No housekeeping at all. Mostly kids that work here so there doesn’t seem to be a lot of pride in job performance or attention to detail. This place is not worth the money it charges, not even close. I suggest spending your money somewhere else if you are staying for more than one night.

The White Marlin Inn is conveniently located in downtown Ocean City, Maryland. Just steps from the beach, boardwalk, amusements and much more.

The only good thing about this place was…… nothing. Ok maybe the location. The pictures are deceiving. The rooms are disgusting. The staff spoke little English and seemed to be disorganized. 1 out of 10 would never recommend!!! Don’t do it !

3. Chateau Surf

503 N Baltimore Ave, Ocean City, MD 21842-3900

Located in historic downtown Ocean City, Chateau Surf is one of OC’s genuine beach homes. This classic 1929 estate recently underwent a full renovation. While vacationing with us, you’ll find all the charm and tradition of classic architecture, while enjoying all the comfort and design of 2014. This family rental will be a place you’ll want to revisit for years to come.

Club Ocean Villas II

Don't Waste Your Points!

Reviewed By Coastal753973

Club Ocean Villas hotel rooms are not worth the points used. The cramped space should be kept as an extension of a unit not as a hotel room. There was little privacy, no microwave, and limited tv programs.

The right place to stay in Fells Point

Reviewed By JnL_McD

Lancaster Square was in a perfect location only a few blocks from prime Fells Point. We never needed our car while we were there. Pros: - This is a condo not a hotel, - The check in and parking were well explained and very smooth. - Char and Josh were super in handling all our requests. - The rooms were clean well appointed with a full kitchen. - the best of all was the location. - we felt completely safe walking around the surrounding area.

Villas of Ocean Pines Ocean City

Not my jam

Reviewed By Tayuh3

We booked unit 13 through RCI for a week. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The contactless check in and check out were very convenient. The grounds are well kept and it is a convenient location. However, inside the unit was an eyesore. It was very outdated and it smelled just as old as it looked. We tried to air out the place despite how cold it was outside, but each time we reentered the unit, the smell hit us again. The coach had absorbed the smell, which got into our clothes. The third "bedroom" on the top floor had a sofa bed and the ac unit looked like a death trap. No one slept up there. It was impossible to keep the living room and diving room at a comfortable temperature even with the fireplace going. We booked this unit for a week and decided in advance to determine our checkout date when we arrived. We checked out after three nights. I rented a different villa at Ocean Piles through another travel company awhile ago, so I expected the same. I was very disappointed because it was the complete opposite. I guess this place would be suited from people only looking for a place to sleep and plan to be at the beach all day because this place was not comfortable enough to lounge all day.

The Seawood Apartment 3

DUMP

Reviewed By denisesQ1181CQ

This place is disgusting. The pictures must be from when it was first built. Carpets and walls are stained, torn slip covers on furniture, duct taped dinning chairs, rusted patio furniture w/3 chairs, one twin bed sitting on the floor and black mold in one of the bedrooms. Had to relocate to the only available unit, 45 streets further up, 135th street, to try and salvage our short family trip, unit 3 managed by Vacasa, very disappointed with Vacasa knowing they managed this property and rented it anyway. Will never use them again!
