Top Crystal Coast Hotel Reviews

Hotel Alice At Atlantic Beach

8/10 Good

"Rooms were clean we had to change rooms because there was a leak in the ceiling. They allow dogs and the hallway smelled like wet dog. No complimentary breakfast. Location was good. I give it a 8/10"

Atlantic Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent

"This resort was very clean, accommodating, comfortable and quiet. The 2-bedroom unite was sizeable and the location was perfect. There is laundry on-site but no in the unit. That is the only check I would give it. If a machine was located in our unit, it would become my number one location to visit on Atlantic Beach!"
