Top Bay Beach Hotel Reviews

Golden Sands Carolina Beach Oceanfront, Tapestry by Hilton

8/10 Good

"Overall, we enjoyed our stay. We found the staff very friendly and helpful; they responded quickly to requests. Room was clean but in need of upgrades, especially the bathroom which was small for 2 people and the air conditioner unit which was very loud. Pool area was large and well maintained. While a nice property, it did not meet the standards of a Hilton."

The Beach House Motel & Suites

8/10 Good

"We enjoyed how close it was to the beach without being oceanfront"

Hampton Inn & Suites Southport

10/10 Excellent

"The staff, from front desk to housekeeping were very polite and respectful. The front desk clerk on 3-11 shift was an eldery gentleman, whom I regret not asking his name, was in my opinion the best example of a hospitality employee that we've met in our 45 yrs. as a couple traveling. Grat place, great staff. Probably the best Hampton Inn we've stay in."

Comfort Suites Southport - Oak Island

10/10 Excellent

"Enjoyed the Pool in the evening after being on the Beach."

Wingate By Wyndham Southport

8/10 Good

"Great, helpful, and friendly staff. Breakfast was a minimally run affair. Minimal selection of items and no ketchup or condiments for eggs and sausage. Who is too cheap to buy ketchup?"

Captain's Cove Motel

10/10 Excellent

"My husband and I needed a quick trip away for the Labor Day weekend. The property was neat and tidy and just what we wanted. The pool was relaxing and the office staff prompt and helpful. It is also close to many restaurants, stores and the beach. We will be staying here again."
