Lovely stay!!

The people were so friendly!! It also smelled super clean throughout the entire place and our entire stay. I’ definitely be going back! There is som construction going on around it, but I believe for good improvement! Looks like it may be ending close to “on season”

Pros: Excellent service, great staff, good location, cute room decor Cons: Our room was cleaned using some very low-grade pinesol that smelled really unpleasant. It bought down the whole ambience. If it had smelled like the lobby it would have been great. The building in general is in dire need of updating — stained grout in the bathroom, rusty metal installations

There was some construction on site and the staff absolutely went out of their way to accommodate us for any inconvenience. We were in walking distance of Uncle Vinny's Pizzeria which I would highly recommend. We had immediate access to a lovely Tiki Bar on an extended pier that was maybe 100 feet from the breaking waves. We will be returning to this hotel in the future for sure!

Wireless Gets a Zero

We have stayed here for years and understood the ongoing construction and are excited for the renovations. However, wireless at a minimum was terrible and I had to work but could not due to no wireless. It did not ruin the trip but certainly put me in a position on my job. Wireless is essential to work remote and it failed consistently.

Well, I chose to get this rental because it showed that it had his own personal Pier. I get there and there is no pier. It looks like it was torn down. Not just that, but you would think for the price that you pay you would have at least continental breakfast. The washer and dryer was down nine times out of the 10 times that we tried to use it. They did finally fix it towards the end of our visit and they paid for one dry for us to use it. Also, someone was knocking on our door the whole time we were there and then taking off running down the hall. We were pretty sure it was kids and we let the staff know. From the hotel we were at there was so much construction in between the two buildings that I had to walk to the other building just to get to the beach access. Pretty inconvenient.

Carolina Beach

I was on spring break from college and took the week off from work. I wanted to go somewhere different. Had never been to Carolina Beach before. My stay was absolutely perfect. The room was gorgeous and all of the staff at the front desk was very professional. I will definitely stay there again.

This property is undergoing renovations and there was some construction noise, but other than that it was great. The staff is accommodating and extremely friendly! The room was clean on arrival and was stocked with what we needed. This is a perfect place to stay with 3-4 people for a short period of time. It is within walking distance to several restaurants and only a couple of mintues drive to the boardwalk. I would definitely stay here again!
