COCONUT MALORIE RESORT OCEAN CITY, AN ASCEND COLLECTION HOTEL, Ocean City

The resort sits directly on the bay at 59th Street, placing it a short walk from the public beach and the boardwalk. Fager's Island restaurant and bar is right behind the property, and Bad Monkey OC is a five-minute walk. Numerous casual eats, including Johnny's Pizza & Pub, Dead Freddies Island Grill, and Sea Bay Cafe, are within 0.3-0.5 km. A 7-Eleven and a bus stop (service every 15 minutes) are at the end of the street. The Ocean City Convention Center is 2 km south, Jolly Roger Amusement Park is a five-minute drive, and Frontier Town Water Park is 15 minutes away. The location suits those who like to walk to dining and entertainment, though a car is convenient for reaching the southern boardwalk attractions and grocery stores.

Accommodations range from studios with a kitchenette, jetted tub, and bathroom to one-bedroom units and larger suites that add a separate living area with a pull-out sofa. All rooms have air conditioning, a flat-screen TV, tea and coffee maker, hairdryer, iron, and private bathroom. One-bedroom units offer bay views, and some rooms overlook the pool or the city side. The units are spacious but the furnishings are dated and cleanliness reports are inconsistent - some find rooms clean and comfortable, while others note stains on upholstery, worn furniture, and occasional pest issues. The sofa beds are often described as less comfortable. The balcony provides a quiet outdoor spot to enjoy the view, but road-facing rooms can pick up noise from the Coastal Highway. Those who are sensitive to humidity or mold may want to check the room upon arrival.

The resort does not have a restaurant, bar, or breakfast offering. The full kitchens and kitchenettes in every room come with a stovetop, refrigerator, microwave, cookware, dishes, and utensils, making it easy to prepare meals. Many nearby dining options are within a short walk, including Bad Monkey OC, Dead Freddies Island Grill, Johnny's Pizza & Pub, and Sea Bay Cafe, which cover pub fare, pizza, and casual American food. Grocery shopping can be done at the nearby ACME or the 7-Eleven at the end of the street.

The seasonal outdoor heated pool and hot tub open around Memorial Day weekend and close after Labor Day weekend. Pool towels are provided but availability after 1 PM has been inconsistent. The fitness centre and hot tub/jacuzzi (with jets in the tubs, not a separate spa) are available year-round. For indoor leisure, there is a billiards room, a game room with shuffleboard, ping pong, and arcade machines, plus a shared lounge and a small library with board games. The property is also right on the bay for fishing, jet skiing, or parasailing rentals nearby, and the beach is two blocks away.

Wi-Fi is free and available throughout the property. The 24-hour front desk can assist with check-in and requests; luggage storage is available. Laundry is offered at an additional charge, and there are washer/dryer units on floors 2-5 for self-service. The business centre is free to use, and fax/photocopying is available for a fee. Parking costs US$15 per day and must be reserved in advance - one space per reservation. The property has two elevators, accessible parking, an accessible entrance with two 36'' doors, accessible registration desk (36.5'' high), accessible public restrooms, and an accessible pool route. The building is non-smoking, and pets are not allowed except service animals. Accepted payment methods include American Express, Visa, Discover, and MasterCard.
