The Islander Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Have stayed here several times. Location is awesome. Clean rooms. Always enjoy staying here."

Hampton Inn & Suites Carolina Beach Oceanfront

10/10 Excellent

"The room was not clean. I have to go to the front desk to replace tissues and toliet paper. Room was not cleaned each day."

The Sand Dunes

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was wonderful. I plan to stay there again!"

Admiral's Quarter

8/10 Good

"Access to the beach was great! Location so close to the pier was great too. The room was clean with a great view! The bathroom gets really steamy with no exhaust fan but the air in the main room was nice and cool. Wish there were mere power outlets to plug in chargers and such. Overall it was nice and I would stay again."

The Starlite Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Great location walking distance to a bunch of restaurants and of course the beach!!"

The Beach House

10/10 Excellent

"Bello"

StudioRes by Marriott Leland

10/10 Excellent

"New clean hotel in a nice area near several restaurants and stores"

River Hotel of Southport

10/10 Excellent

"The property is beautiful! The rooms are very Modern. All rooms face the river which gives a nice view! I highly recommend this hotel. The river beach is that great that I thought it was an ocean beach. My only observations are that the front desk is not 24 hours so you better check in before they close or make sure you reach out to them ahead so they can give you instructions how to check in after they close and that the parking lot is not too big and you might find difficulty parking if you arrive late at night."

Wingate By Wyndham Southport

8/10 Good

"HOTEL WAS NICE AND CLEAN THE STAFF WAS FRIENDLY,BREAKFAST WAS OK COULD HAVE HAD MORE FOOD CHOICES,OVERALL WOULD COME BACK"
