Description

A new hotel with a beautiful lounge, one flight of steps up. There is one large room with a bar that has couches and fire places. The lighting is VERY dim so at night it's really dark in this room. There is also a more private, smaller room attached with a fire place and couches as well. You can also finding seating outside the hotel. The staff is extremely friendly. This hotel is on the boardwalk which can be accessed right from the "Lola Lounge" upstairs which could make for a very nice walk. (WIND/WEATHER PERMITTING)

Contains multiple lounges:

  • Main Level. Beautifully designed spacious lounge area with plenty of seating in different sections with a bar.
  • L’Onda Lounge: rooftop lounge/bar area overlooking Long Beach’s famous boardwalk and beach.

Tips

  • GREAT ambience for a 1st date.
  • If coming from the Far Rockaway area, you will need cash ($2 each way) for the Atlantic Beach Bridge; EZPass is NOT accepted.
  • It is near the beach, so you can go out and walk on the Board Walk (at night).
  • Do not come here on Saturday night. There is loud music and lots of people.
  • Can be very busy on Thursday night in an immodest way.
  • Was here on a Sunday afternoon in August (2015). There was a buffet in the lounge with very limited seating (may be a summer thing) and it wasn't comfortable so call in advance to find if they're having this if you're thinking of going on Sunday afternoon.
  • Do not assume anything is kosher here. The soda and beer should be OK like in any other lounge.
  • Waitresses are dressed VERY immodestly.
  • BE CAREFUL. If you want to sit in the lounge, you have to order drinks, and their "drinking service" costs $20 plus tax and tip per person. Refills are free for water and soda.
  • THIS "BE CAREFUL" TIP IS NOT NECESSARILY TRUE: I went to the "Lola Lounge" twice without being charged a cover charge. 1st time I only payed for a glass of soda ($3) and the other time we both ordered water & the bartender let us have it for free. BUT I did confirm that there have been people who were charged this cover charge (ONCE UNFORTUNATELY BY A FRUM GUY WHO WAS WALKING AROUND WHO WAS PRESUMABLY THE OWNER). So you may get lucky and you may not. Nobody blinked at me both times I was there so I don't know what the other people did wrong. Maybe I just came on good nights.
  • Need parking permit to park outside and it costs $10 for valet parking from the lounge.
  • You can find street parking a block away which is free.
  • They did not charge a cover charge- February, 2014
