Relax with the whole family in our lighted patio area in front of the fire or enjoy all the nightlife Carolina Beach has to offer at our local bars and clubs with live entertainment every weekend.

Stayed here for a quick getaway . The weather wasn’t great but thank goodness the property was. I am very particular about the hotels etc I stay in. And this passed the test.

Carolina Beach
This property was very nice. Happy we went out to eat for meals because there wasn’t a stove but they did have a hot plate with pan to warm up left overs. Fantastic location. Would definitely stay again if we come back to the area
We had a wonderful stay! Management was easily accessible and able to handle the issue we had qith accessing our room VERY fast. Within walking distance to the majority of shop's, restaurants and attractions. The only downside was the 2nd pool we were not able to use.
