Top Ship Bottom Hotel Reviews

Drifting Sands Oceanfront Hotel

8/10 Good

"Our room was spacious, equipped with everything we needed: bureau, table and chairs, lamps. The bed was firm. The pillows, unfortunately, we’re lumpy. We had a small balcony as well. I would definitely return."

The Beach House at Drifting Sands

8/10 Good

"Though the room was clean, there was no table or chair to be found in the room besides the 2 beds. The bed pillows were not comfortable and the bed linens were basic. There was not much room in the bathroom to put toiletries, a hair dryer, etc. The room in general was okay. The location was great and the staff was very helpful and polite."

Holiday Inn Manahawkin/Long Beach Island by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room, safe environments, front desk personnel very kind and helpful. The Mainland Restaurant got good verity of food. The restaurant do not serve breakfast only lunch and dinner. I'm very satisfied, for sure I will book again on my next trip to LBI."

Blue Creek Inn

10/10 Excellent

"It was an amazing time spent with family. Everything was so convenient and within walking distance. We never moved out car. Will stay here again everyone was friendly and always said hello. Loved all the restaurants we ate at , food was excellent and we ate at a different place every day and again never moved the car. 🙏👍😊👍"
