My husband & I stayed here 1 nite in March 2013. Just awful!!! First of all the room reaked of smoke--My sheets had yellow stains on it and the mattress had what I hope were wine stains (or blood) on the side. Very, very old and musty. Disgusting. I had to get a blanket out of the car to sleep... More

We enjoyed our short stay at this locally owned and operated motel. The proximity to the sea and the wonderful sounds of the ocean all contributed to a pleasant time spent. We had an efficiency and the views are all good!

My husband and I live locally, both of us have demanding jobs. We really needed to find a place that was close to home within our budget and ocean front. If you need a place to go to to get some beach time and dont need to stay in a 5 star hotel, then this is the place to go.... More

The owners are great and the rooms are clean. As long as the Ocean Crest is around I will always be staying there when I go to... More

Decided to make reservations for a mini-vacation. This is an older (1940s) motel that was typical of Florida motels before the high-rises came to be. It has efficieny rooms and... More

Our family has been staying at the Ocean Crest for over 30 years. My parents started staying there around 1977 I think - very close to the time that Marcie and Gordon became the owners/managers. Marcie personally attended to minor injuries of my children and Gordon's the same as he was back then...super friendly and helpful, offering southern hospitality despite... More

My family recently stayed at the Ocean Crest for a weekend family get together and we all had a great time. We camped out at the beach all day and relaxed on the front porch in the evening. All the rooms had kitchenettes so we were able to prepare large brunches and dinners. The motel has Old Florida charm with... More

Let me start by saying if you are a Princess and the Pea--keep looking because you won't be happy. This motel is older and shows signs of its age. If you do not smoke, smoke bothers you, or you have allergies (smoke/pets) go elsewhere. The location is right on the A1A, so with pets or little kids, you need to... More
