Is Thunderbird Motel, Charlroy Motel, Palm Villa Suites, and… Still Open?

Hotel Impossible's episode 'Operation Sandy, Part 2' (S3E12), which aired 2013-10-28, followed up on storm recovery at several Seaside Heights-area lodging properties after Superstorm Sandy, including Thunderbird Motel, Charlroy Motel, Palm Villa Suites, and Tradewinds Motor Lodge. This record covers Charlroy Motel, the only one of the four properties for which current business and website evidence was located; the specific repairs or issues Anthony Melchiorri addressed at each property are not documented in the sources reviewed here. Charlroy Motel is located at 1601 N Ocean Ave in Seaside Park, New Jersey, just south of Seaside Heights.

Google Places lists the motel as operational at that address, with a website at charlroymotel.com. The website was checked on 2026-09-09 and returned an HTTP 200 response with 2026-dated content. The site's homepage describes the motel's family history, saying it was originally called the Charlroy Manor when the current owner's grandfather built it, and that the family has lived on the property for 20 years welcoming guests to the Jersey Shore. The site lists rooms, amenities, a gallery, an area guide, policies, and contact information, including a phone number and email address.

No source reviewed indicated a change in Charlroy Motel's name, ownership, or address since the 2013 episode aired. Status information for Thunderbird Motel, Palm Villa Suites, and Tradewinds Motor Lodge as mentioned in this episode is not covered by this record.
