The Sea Shell Resort & Beach Club

Sitting just behind a sand dune along Beach Haven’s sandy side, The Sea Shell Resort & Beach Club features multiple restaurants and bars, lending it a versatility not often seen on Long Beach Island. For light fare there is the Palm Grill, for something a little more upscale their is the Palm Tree, there’s also a sushi bar, and even a to-go shack. The establishment also features two bars, 10 South Martini Lounge + Wine Bar and a tiki bar located next to the pool.

When it comes to late nights or wild beachside days, there is nothing on L.B.I. quite like the Sea Shell’s tiki bar, which stays open late and serves up heavy pours while bands perform in the afternoon and on Friday nights. Its poolside atmosphere is laid back, and its appetite for beers, wells-plus-mixers, and house wine is ravenous. Surfboards line the hut’s roof and at night, bonfires burn in nooks near the pool. On Friday and Saturday nights, it is packed with crowds of twentysomethings looking to blow off some steam, while weeknights bring a more relaxed crowd of hotel guests and locals.

10 South Martini Lounge + Wine Bar sits just past the The Sea Shell Resort & Beach Club’s lobby and would seem miles from the outside tiki bar, if it weren’t for a wall of windows looking out towards the pool. Light bites are on offer, but it’s the handcrafted cocktails that keep people coming back time and again. From a Pamplemousse Fizz (prosecco, fresh grapefruit, rosemary) to a Samoa Martini (Godiva chocolate, Stoli vanilla, Rumchata, butterscotch, hazelnut, creme de cacao, Malibu), there is something available that should get your mouth watering – there’s even a full sheet of coffee cocktails for the after dinner crowd. Those not looking for hard liquor can choose between a constantly rotating set of beers on tap or a spacious wine menu. 

Whether you’re looking for a wild night by the pool or to sip a martini in the warm confines of a traditional hotel bar, The Sea Shell Resort & Beach Club has something to offer you.
