Yes, the hotel is older, but recent renovations make this place a little paradise, the grounds are well taken care of and the Marina walk is a must for dog owners, Sir Winston loved it!

★★★★★ — Phillip, Oct 2025

This is an amazing spot. Beautiful in every aspect. Service is amazing 👏. Community is breathtaking and the rooms are super nice. Your right next to the ocean . Price of the rooms are extremely fair. The market square is just across the bridge and is awesome

★★★★★ — Shawn, Feb 2026

Staff was very nice and helpful. Room was clean but did smell like smoke. Nice view of the water. Just over the bridge to all the shops and food. Great location.

Getting married at Bridgepointe Hotel and Marina

Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see the ceremony spot at the exact time of day you'd say your vows — a west-facing beach glows at sunset but bakes at noon, and you'll want to feel the wind, watch where the sun sits, and walk the path your guests take across the sand. Second, bring your real questions: the weather backup (where does the ceremony move if it rains or the wind kicks up?), who pulls the beach permit, the sound-ordinance curfew, the catering and bar policy, and exactly what's included — chairs, setup, and teardown on sand are where quotes quietly diverge. Peak beach dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
