Top Dog Islands Hotel Reviews

Crystal Coast Oceanfront Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Everyone at the hotel was great and the room was fine to stay"

The Beacon

10/10 Excellent

"Great place and wonderful view. Staff was excellent. Home away from home. ❤️"

OCEANFRONT, Top Floor; Ocean Club, Pool, Hot tub; Cleaning & Linens Included

10/10 Excellent

"Great complex; the parking and check-in process could not have been better, and the elevator was just steps away from this unit - super easy for our elderly family member who cannot walk very far. The unit was well-appointed, pretty clean, and the oceanfront view from the balcony was spectacular. Beach access was easy, and the pool was lovely and clean. The owner is very friendly and communicative. If I could leave feedback for one area of improvement, it would be that the carpets in the bedrooms and the upholstered furniture in the living area would benefit from deep cleaning, as they were quite dingy. Overall, though, this place was awesome and we wouldn't hesitate to book again."

Panoramic View DIRECT OCEANFRONT Unit at Summer Winds. Multiple pools, hot tubs

8/10 Good

"This condo is set up very nice! I loved the convenience of the kitchen and bathrooms to the rest of the living areas. The dining area was nice with a very large table that seats 6 easily. Also there was a nice view of the ocean from there. The views from the deck were awesome and there was usually a nice breeze blowing. We viewed wonderful sunrises, dolphins and a thunderstorm over the ocean. The beds were a little hard and there was a short supply of towels, but I always travel with extra so we were ok. The cleanliness could have been better as there were some areas that hadn’t been cleaned for awhile, including the lid on the trash can that was filthy, something stuck on one of the freezer shelves, excess lint in the dryer lint trap and rotten food that was left in the bottom of the dishwasher. By the way, there should be directions on how to use the dishwasher as it is real quirky. The kitchen could use some better skillets but otherwise was stocked nicely. The railing around the balcony needs some work, it is a little loose on one side and there is a crack where it is bolted to the wall. The whole unit needs some TLC as paint is chipping and a major fall cleaning is needed. Overall we did enjoy the unit and it does have a lot to recommend it."

OCEAN PANORAMA: Beachfront, quiet, & pet friendly home with gorgeous ocean views

10/10 Excellent
