Top Dog Islands Hotel Reviews

The Beacon

10/10 Excellent

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

Oceanfront Gem: Pools/Hot Tub, Beach and Beyond

10/10 Excellent

"Great location and beautiful oceanfront view. Spacious accommodation for the four of us."

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

10/10 Excellent

"This is the seven year that we have choosen this unit for my birthday weekend that should say it all. We tried other locations before we hit upon this unit at Summer Winds, The group voted to return to this unit again next year. The group includes 6 Adults and 4 children in age from 7 to 13. There is plenty of space in the unit for the kids to spread out. The Beach and the Pools are just a short walk away and the kids are to the age when we feel comfortable allowing them to walk back to the unit alone. The unit is always clean when we arrive and in good order. In years pass when we have had an issue the Host has always been very quick to respond."

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."
