Overall this place is a perfect get away. Walk to the beach or use the pool. The pool was closed for cleaning when we were there but it was fine. My husband and I hung out at the tiki bar and Jacob was an amazing bartender!

You are charged 20 dollars a day to park which is ridiculous because if you are staying there you should get free parking. Staff nice, room clean, pool and hot tub could use some TLC.

Love emerald isle and pinn knolls but I think it's ridiculous that you have to pay for parking at a hotel that you literally pay 2k to stay at already. That's absurd.

Paying to park at a hotel is ridiculous. Next they’ll start charging to use the hotel pool. Which by the way was not clean
