I really enjoyed my stay. Upon arrival we were about an hour early, we met Cameron outside who allowed us early entry into our room. It was a very nice and clean room. Property was very walkable to the beach, boardwalk, and restaurants.

The good, it's close to the beach and they have started to remodel the property, The bad , The rooms are TINY and they reused the old doors that you can see daylight from outside and a banged up repainted bathroom door.

What a great trip! Not only was Carolina beach gorgeous but our stay topped it off! Cameron was so helpful from the moment we got there and was accommodating to every need we had, always accessibly and very friendly! And I can’t rave enough about how clean this place was, the pools were well maintained and our room was very clean as well as updated and renovated! Iv been to plenty of motels where the price and the quality went hand in and hand but not this place, I think the price was very fair especially for how convenient the location was, right next to the beach and plenty of little beach stores and restaurants in walking distance! I would definitely give this place a 10/10 and would book again in the future! Thankyou again Cameron for such a great stay!!!
