If you’ve ever tried to book a tropical vacation, you know that it can be maddeningly difficult to find an honest-to-goodness beachfront hotel. There are “Oceanview” rooms, “Deluxe Waterview Suites”, “Waterfront Seaside Obstructed View Villas”, and god knows what else. But sometimes you just want a room that’s absolutely, without-a-doubt, right on the water.
With the tagline “hotels right on the beach … no exceptions”, TheBeachfrontClub.com aims to solve this problem by cataloging:
… all of the world’s ‘true beachfront’ accommodations – those that have no roads or traffic between the rooms and the water. That means no crossing roads or dodging traffic to get to the beach – and no longer being fooled by misleading advertising that suggests hotels are beachfront, when, in fact, they aren’t. We can put you right-on-the-beach every time, in a budget bungalow, boutique hotel or 5-star resort.
The site currently offers a searchable database of more than 7,000 hotels in Europe, Asia, the Caribbean, and everywhere in-between.
It’s admittedly still in beta – and the founders even admit that users may encounter a few hiccups along the way – but a few quick searches reveal that it all looks quite promising. Check it out for free at TheBeachfrontClub.com.
