Ocean view was beautiful from our balcony. So nice to have a restaurant inside the hotel for delicious meals with available breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Beach chairs and beach umbrellas were furnished at beach for enjoyment. Large pool outside with hot tub were also available for enjoyment. We loved our first visit to Atlantic Beach and we loved our stay at Crystal Beach Oceanfront Hotel. Hotel front desk open around the clock for any needs. All rooms are ocean front.

Our room was very clean, and the beds/pillows were comfy. The view is fantastic. My only tiny complaint is, I wish there were a small free continental breakfast in addition to the available to purchase breakfast. Just some coffee and a Danish, and cereal would have been awesome.

You could tell this hotel was newly renovated. We were welcomed by friendly staff members at the front desk as well as the bar. At first glance, the hotel was beautiful, but when you look closer, there were things that need attention. The bathroom had mildew growing on the floor behind the door. There were 2 cracks in the wall, going from the ceiling halfway down the wall. The phones did not work, and there were stains on the carpet. The bed is hard as a rock. It was difficult for my husband and I to get a good night’s rest and we both woke up with back pain each morning.

shower curtain sticking to me while showering, entangling due to no weights to hold the fabric down. shower pan tilts so the water is at the back of the pan, running over the sides onto the flooring. need to update the molded caulking. fridge is very loud when it kicks on. staff was wonderful, food was excellent. enjoyed my time.

The location of the hotel was amazing--what a beautiful spot. Staff were accommodating (we needed an earlier check in for a wedding we were attending), the bar was fun on NYE, and the room was fine. Bathroom is tiny and dated, but not a problem. Great ice from the ice machine. Only thing we found annoying was the charge for parking--huge parking lot, and off-season it seemed unnecessary. It was a negligent fee, but felt obnoxious.
