"The location was convenient to everything."

Cabin

Twin Lakes RV & Camping Resort

Chocowinity

"Bathroom was immaculately clean for a cabin. They do not provide blankets, sheets, and pillows so bring your own! The pool was crystal clear and the perfect temperature. Staff are very helpful and super friendly. The pull out couch was surprisingly comfortable. The cabin came with a TV which was nice. Will definitely be back next time I’m in that part of NC. "

Condo

St. Regis by Carolina Retreats

Sneads Ferry

"We could see the ocean, but all beach access was restricted from the recent storm that happened a week ago. No one communicated with us regarding the pools and beach access being closed, despite knowing this for the week. Hotels.com gave us the wrong unit number; the property management company wasn’t open to help us when we arrived; the property management company blamed the HOA for not telling them about the storm damage and restricted amenities; and no one wants to take responsibility for...

Apartment

Hamilton Cay at Bermuda Bay by Kees Vacations

Kill Devil Hills

"The property was easy to find but the room took a minute. We had to drive around and figure out where the pool was and what it was called. A map would make it easier to find. The condo was gorgeous and very spacious. The second bedroom air wasn’t working and it was VERY hot in that room. I called on our second day to get it fixed and no one ever called me back or came to try and fix it. My son ended up sleeping terribly because of the heat. The check out procedure and what needs to be done is...

Top Coastal North Carolina Hotel Reviews

Hotel Alice At Atlantic Beach

10/10 Excellent

"I loved everything about my trip the hotel Alice was great I can't wait to plan my next trip so I can stay there again"

Islander Hotel & Resort

8/10 Good

"Our room was steps from the ocean, the convenience was amazing! The pool was great, the room was pretty clean. There was no exhaust fan, sink or mirror in the bathroom and I did empty the dehumidifier in the room 4-5 times a day. There was a microwave and refrigerator but no toaster. Overall, it was a nice place for a great price. The staff was friendly and the location was amazing!"

Compass Hotel Beaufort by Margaritaville

10/10 Excellent

"This was honestly one of the nicest hotels we have ever stayed at and we have been all over the world. The pool is incredible and so is the dining option. And let’s talk about the free breakfast, wow!!! Such a spread and the property is so well maintained. Everything was great! For not being on the beach it was amazing and I can’t wait it stay one day again!"

Mia's Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We really enjoyed our stay! We booked this hotel for the private beach access, and it was exactly what we wanted. Even though we stayed on the motel side near the street, the beach was less than a five-minute walk away. The private access leads directly to the beach, making it incredibly convenient. The rooms are on the smaller side, but they were perfect for our family since we only used them to shower, change, nap, and relax between beach trips. Items like a blow dryer and iron are available upon request at the front desk due to past thefts. A special shoutout to Shaun (sorry if I misspelled your name!). He was working during a busy holiday, constantly helping guests, cleaning the property, and keeping everything running smoothly—all while remaining friendly, professional, and accommodating. His outstanding customer service made our stay even better. We’d definitely stay here again!"

Golden Sands Carolina Beach Oceanfront, Tapestry by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"The view to the beach was fantastic and is a short walk to it. The pool seemed fine and people were using it but we didn’t use it. Parking was full for the holiday weekend but right across the street is the parking of the restaurant so that was no big issue. We had the kitchenette room and worked well for our needs. Tv was fine but only had it on for about 15 minutes, our goal was beach !!!The only negative was the wifi connection, it was not great probably due to all the people using it. Had to go outside the hotel to connect to schedule a ride to the airport."
