Top Carolina Beach Hotel Reviews

The Starlite Inn

8/10 Good

"The ac worked well. The pictures made the space seem much larger than it actually was. No pool. Never had interactions with staff. It’s less than 5 minutes to walk to the beach. Some sort of fair was set up with a small Ferris wheel and merry go round. The noise never bothered us but we had to walk through it for the straightest, shortest path to the beach. We also didn’t stay over the weekend."

Courtyard Carolina Beach Oceanfront

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay! Everything was excellent from start to finish. The staff was very friendly, welcoming, and helpful, and our room was exceptionally clean and comfortable. The hotel is beautiful, well-maintained, and everything felt like it was at a very high standard. We truly enjoyed our time here and had a great experience. I would definitely recommend this hotel and will happily come back again!"

Sea Colony by Carolina Retreats

8/10 Good

"The condo had beautiful views and was directly on the beach. Parking was great and right under the condo. The condo had all needed amenities. There was a few things that could have been cleaner such as the bathroom but was tolerable. My biggest issue were the laundry doors were broken and would stay open blocking the living area. It was a nuisance but not the worst thing. The condo was dated but again it was ok because it was so close to the beach."

Sands by Carolina Retreats

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful views of the ocean and Carolina Beach. The condo was beautiful and looks recently updated. Bright, spacious, and comfortable. Ample supplies in the kitchen. Bedrooms were roomy. Nice having a washer and dryer in the unit. Huge deck over looking ocean with very nice furniture on deck. Beach chairs were also available for use. Great for families. Plenty of room for everyone. Also walking distance to shops, restaurants, and the boardwalk. Check was quick and easy. Everyone was very helpful and friendly. Highly recommend this property."
