Always enjoy our stay overall

Rooms for a family of 5, were very nice and spacious. Perfect location to the beach, grill and tiki bar. Great indoor and outdoor.

Elevators stopped working for a good 24 hrs. Very inconvenient when you’re on the 5th floor in this heat.

We enjoyed our trip to Carolina Beach but can’t say we would ever stay here again

Location was about the only positive feature. Property needs to be cleaned throughly

Pool was very small with not a lot of lounge seating bc options, staff wasn’t friendly or helpful, elevator issues with no concern of fixing when trying to leave with luggage

Great family spot

Just outstanding! Rooms very nice size, comfortable and good amenities. Especially having a pullout sofa was great to give child own bed. Set up well for technology such as usb outlets and plug-ins. Staff is amazing. Friendly, welcoming and make you feel as if a neighbor. Beach is very close. Local dining and within quick drive to Wilmington. Super attractions such as USS North Carolina and Riverwalk. Don't miss getting a cupcake at The Peppered Cupcake, it is amazing. Would gladly return.

Not hotel's fault, but many people use the indoor pool as a wash off spot from the beach instead of the provided shower. Very unpleasant to have a child playing and someone comes in to wash sand off feet and dirty the pool. Outdoor pool is very nice, but when some guests start smoking at it, just gets smelly and unpleasant.

It was a nice short stay but the no WiFi really made a dent on how enjoyable the stay was

The location is perfect

The free WiFi didn’t work the entire time we were there.

It was blissful! Listening to the ocean lulled us to sleep

Being oceanfront

Elevator was jumpy and kept going past 4th floor to 5th floor and we had to hit button to go back down

Lovely

Loved the bed situation everyone had room to sleep

No option to wipe the sand off our feet when entering the room, sand was everywhere on the floor as a result. Not fair to housekeeping.

Nice clean room

Rooms were clean. Nothing fancy but when I’m at the beach I am interested in a clean, comfortable place to sleep and a clean bathroom. This had all that.

Indoor pool was closed 3 of the 4 days. Maintenance for the outdoor pool was performed during its open hours so the pool could not be used for about an hour while he added chemicals and cleaned the pool. Seems that could be done when it’s closed. Wi-fi never worked. We had 3 rooms so there were a few small children. It would be nice to have a door latch out of the reach of small children. They have nothing on the inside but the door handle. For the amount of $ something beyond the minimum would make me feel better about spending that much.

Great beach location

The front desk staff were extremely welcoming and friendly. The property is right on the beach! The view from our balcony was beautiful, there’s nothing like hearing ocean waves all day (and night) and catching a parade of pelicans soaring by. Enjoyed lunch and a fun drink at the Tiki bar. It was about a mile walk up the beach to the boardwalk and a 5 minute drive by car.

The room did not have carpet so despite our best efforts sand got in the room. It would be nice to have a broom and dust pan to sweep up. The air conditioning cooled the room but did not dehumidify so towels and swimsuits never fully dried and other things felt damp all the time. Body wash, shampoo and conditioner provided in the shower, but no soap to wash hands ☹️. Our room didn’t have a hair dryer which would have been nice. Chairs on the balcony were ok, they should consider something more comfortable to sit and enjoy the view.

Passable

Location

Expected to have access to 2 pools, indoor was shut down most of our stay, then the outdoor one was down for a while on Wednesday. when you have small kids it’s hard not having a pool. Outdoor pool was not very clean up to Wednesday evening

Overall, I had a good mini vacation!

The second room I got was good! I was very thankful for the staff accommodating me! The bed was extremely comfortable and the view was awesome! Staff was pleasant.

When I got there the room was just getting clean but they accommodated me and that was enough to make me happy. I parked on the side of the building and noticed someone had been messing with my car. I let the receptionist know. I parked my car near the cameras after that and had no issues. Should have known better, but I was not expecting to have people mess with my car either. SO FYI, park where your car is in camera view. I had no issues after that. I would have given it a 10 but because of my car issue I was a little paranoid but I was determined to have a little vacation and enjoy it.
