“This place is great. I didn't see my kids for hours, which was great, and when it was time to leave, nobody else had taken them, which was also good. The games are fun the parents are all super-friendly, the staff was, too, actually. Very friendly environment. Don't wear socks with holes in them.”
“We had an AMAZING time at Long Island Aquarium! The aquarium is super spacious and never felt crowded, with so many interesting exhibits to explore. Everything is really well done, but the sharks absolutely stole the show — seriously SO cool to see them up close and swimming overhead!
Parking is about 1–2 blocks away, just follow the signs for “Aquarium Parking.” There’s a shuttle that runs often, and the driver was incredibly friendly. We were so glad we chose that option because it was slushy everywhere, and the shuttle made the whole experience easy and stress-free.
Plan for about 2 hours, which felt absolutely perfect — enough time to see everything, enjoy the exhibits, and not feel rushed at all. Fun, exciting, and 100% worth the visit. We’d definitely go back!”

“I’m usually a guest at Marriotts more elite collections and only stayed here for one night, but our experience was incredibly pleasant, especially for the rate. The market was great and the free breakfast was good value without having to leave the hotel. The indoor and outdoor hot tub/pool was a great option to have. The location was wonderful and close to outlets, a Walmart/Target, and EV charging. Thank you Marriott!”
“Our family had great time at the NYE party at the aquarium. The kids enjoyed the attractions, the desserts and the activities. The adults are enjoyed the food, drink and dancing.”
