Awesome hotel at Hampton beach.

Great place to go when going to the beach for a couple of days. Stores were great to visit and the food at the restaurants was great. I loved the quiet signs between 10pm and 8am.

My daughters and I have been coming to Hamton Beach for day trips and sometimes overnight trips for many years. This was our first time at The Crest and I feel like we have found our new favorite place stay! The staff was incredibly friendly and helpfult, our room was very clean and everything is walkable - 1 block from the beach! I love this place!
