Danfords Hotel & Marina

My wife and I took a one day getaway and decided to stay at this hotel. It was on one of the coldest days. I can remember where the real feels were down to 15 below. Such a nice stay and the rooms were super nice, comfortable and clean. The restaurant was all so very fantastic and had a great menu where both my wife and I could find items we liked. The staff was so courteous in the dining room and in the hotel. Because it was an exceptionally cold night, the original room we got was quite cool and when I called the front desk they immediately came up, moved us to a different room that did not face the ocean and we were absolutely fine. We definitely will be coming back here and we truly appreciated this wonderful hotel

Everything was perfect. Even the rainy weather on Saturday couldn’t dampen this experience. Room was exceptional, and I loved the fact that even though it was January 10, all the Christmas decorations were still in place at the hotel and in town. Front desk staff were extremely warm and pleasant. Surrounding area was full of friendly people, lots of walking spaces and parks and the downtown Port Jefferson experience was very lively. Will definitely be back.

Positive: There wasn't much to say about the section that we stayed in. The people in the room above us were either dancing or fighting half of the night!!! While trying to watch TV all we could hear was the noise from the room above us!!! Negative: The idea that as a handicap person and haveing to stay in a third floor room was absured. No elevators, outside WALK UP room was insane. We were moved across the road into this other building that all in all I would never recomend this place to anyone!

The room was a nice king size with a fireplace. I loved that it had a balcony that looked at the water and ferry area. The fireplace is large and great to be able to use a real log. The only downfall is you can hear a lot of noise upstairs but I would definitely come again!

We got married here on 10/11/25 and couldn't have asked for a more perfect day or experience with Danford's and Black Pearl Catering staff! We were treated like a king and queen. This is a beautiful venue for a wedding, with the ferry and boats in the background if you do a waterfront ceremony like we did. The staff, especially our wedding coordinators Annmarie and Elyse, paid exceptional attention to detail and assisted us along the way in every step from booking up to our wedding day. The food was delicious and the staff friendly and professional. We never saw such a happy, smiling staff anywhere before. They were just incredible. We stayed the night and our room was beautiful, clean, spacious with a comfortable bed and a water view. The perfect wedding day and night!
