Top Dog Beach Hotel Reviews

Ocean Beach Hotel

8/10 Good

"Location was great, right in town by all the restaurants and coffee shops. It is a busy area on the weekend and some great people watching. We got there early and we had a room ready. The beach is right across the street, so it is convenient if you need to go back to the room. The decks are awesome to hang out and watch the sunset and people watching. The tables on the top deck and the common area could use umbrellas for some shade. The only bummer was that the shower that is in the common area to rinse off from the beach was broken. The foot wash worked at least. Overall, we had a great time for a weekend!"

Nothing beats Ocean Front

10/10 Excellent

"This property is perfect for a couple's getaway! Being right on the beach means not worrying about parking and dragging things to the beach. We loved morning coffee and sunset cocktails on the patio, people watching and enjoying the weather. The unit is exactly as described, pictures are accurate. Being south of the Belmont Park area means it's a little more quiet, but you're close to the action if you want to do that too. Larry is awesome to work with. We'll definitely be back!"

Beachfront Home w/ Ocean Views • Right on Mission Beach | Belmont by AvantStay

8/10 Good

"The location was amazing. Right on the boardwalk by volleyball courts, close to Belmont and a lot of activities. The check-in process was simple. Parking was perfect which, for the area is really important. The unit had a nice living space with tv and comfortable sofa and chairs. We loved the big dining table for gathering around- meal, conversation, etc. The unit is bright, open and modern. Upon entering the unit, first impressions were very dirty windows and sliding door. Lots of bird droppings on the window and handprints and smudges on sliding door. The cooking pans under the stove were filthy like they weren’t even washed. The patio furniture was uncomfortable with thin cushions that didn’t fit the lounge. The master bed had a tilt in it making it a bit uncomfortable."
