Nice property. Only down fall was pool table room had a bedroom in living room. You would think the pool table would be in living area and 2nd bedroom would be off kitchen not in the open. It was fine though. Other down fall are walls are so thin you can hear everything from other rooms.

The room was very cute and comfortable. It was pretty clean but I took my shoes off when I got into my room and walked around for about an hour then I looked at the bottom of my feet and they were covered in dirt. The mattress of the bed didn't actually fit the box springs they were on but once I got in the bed it was pretty comfortable. I had some friends who were also staying there in a different room and we went out to eat and while we were gone they mentioned how to make sure the door was locked. They said it was on a card in their room. I didn't have any instructions in my room and there was no information in the email I got telling me I had to push the lock set button so I left my room unlocked for about 3 hours. When we got back to the hotel my friends came in with me to make sure there was no one in there. Overall it was an okay place but I won't be staying there again..

What an amazing welcome. Hosts checked in via phone and confirmed arrival. Wanderlust was easy to find with a well-illuminated parking lot. Upon arrival, the heat was on and the sweetest background playing in what feels like Swiss chalet meets upscale beachside roost. Even the towels were folded with aesthetic intention. This place WAY exceeded my expectations! Thank you!

I had a wonderful stay in Ocean Shores! I stayed in a one-bedroom studio that was beautiful and welcoming from the moment I walked in, with a warm and inviting ambiance. The keyless entry was super convenient, and having parking right out front made everything so easy. The bed was very comfortable, and I appreciated the clean space and cozy couch for relaxing. The location was another highlight—restaurants were close by, and it was less than a five-minute walk to the beach, which was perfect for exploring. There were a couple of minor drawbacks: there weren’t quite enough towels for the length of my stay, the Keurig needed some deep cleaning to remove mold or mildew, and the bathtub didn’t work for taking baths since it didn’t plug correctly (though the shower worked just fine). Despite these small issues, everything else was fantastic. It was very affordable, peaceful, and even through hurricane-force winds and a tornado warning, I had a wonderful experience. I’ll definitely return!

Would stay again!
I had a great stay at the Wanderlust Inn! It was clean, well lit, a quality TV. There was some foot traffic outside but it wasn’t too loud. Parking was easy and it felt safe. I did have a dog with me, and they have a great area in the back with bags and enough space for a quick walk around. The grass area does flood when it rains though and didn’t have the right shoes. I would stay again on my next trip.

This was my second stay here. Clean, spacious rooms. Convenient access to the beach and town. I've been to several hotels and inns at Ocean Shores and this is the most chill, easy going, no hassle place. There's no front desk so you need to know where to find whatever you need before you get here, but i love it.

Property was right by the beach. Situated between two restaurants which was convenient but unfortunately I got the room right next to stairs and next to storage room so everyone running up and down stairs and every time housekeeping was on site it was very loud. Overall great place to stay.
