Our stay was just okay. The rooms need a deep cleaning. The bedding sheets were old so I wasn’t comfortable sleeping at all. And I wasn’t happy with the 10pm noise curfew. We paid too much money not to be able talk past 10pm. I wouldn’t stay here again.

The amenities and property left.m a lot to be desired. Although a historic property it still needed to be renovated for space and amenities. The self serve rooms were a nice touch but our room was not as advertised.

Avoid room 3 if possible

Carolina Beach Inn is adorable with great aesthetics. The communication is great from the time you make the reservation to the time you check out. Housekeeping is wonderful - I think her name was Neha and she was the sweetest and accommodating. We stayed in room 3 on the bottom level, which I would advise to avoid if possible. It’s under the stairs and shares walls with 2 other rooms that have zero insulation or noise protection. The people next door partied all night and their dogs barked incessantly. The walls were so thin I could hear every word of their conversations. This room also is under 2 different hotel rooms upstairs and there is no noise protection under the hard wood. Between the relationships and walking around all hours of the night, we got no sleep and decided to leave the hotel early. It’s a bummer because the hotel is adorable and close to the beach.

Great location. We had a family emergency at the beginning of our stay and the Carolina Beach Inn was very nice and worked with us to minimize the impact to our finances. They were able to refund us some of our stay. I will definitely come back this season and stay at the Carolina Beach Inn again. Thank you for what you did Carolina Beach Inn!

While there is no real interaction with staff, this inn was immaculate and very easy to navigate. With parking directly outside and the beach acces within 2 blocks, it was perfect for us. The kitchen was well equipped and with a separate bedroom it was easy to watch tv while my husband slept. The property is also dog friendly! This place is not fancy at all but suited us much better than a hotel room. We would stay again.

6/10 Good

This is a hotel without a front desk, so everything is handled online. Very simplistic and efficient. Our room was located next to the coffee service area, so it was noisy in the morning. Finally, it’s pet friendly, and our neighbor’s dogs started yapping at 6:15 AM. I thought that was rude, but so be it. The room and bathroom was small but totally adequate. The shower was very small - I’m 6’4”, so beware tall folks.
