Great place to stay. The rooms are a bit small, but love the short walk to the boardwalk and the beach.

Carolina Beach Inn

My only concern is the lack of comfortable mattress. For me, it was like sleeping on concrete. I woke up every couple of hours in pain. The room was the perfect size for a short stay for two people and was very clean and quiet.

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!

Just enough for a couple
Keela, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

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.
Nancy, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Carolina Beach Inn is located a block from the heart of the town. It is like a throw back to an earlier era. The beach is broad and clean, a 2 block walk from the Inn.
Daniel, 3-night trip

It was a cute, clean, very convenient Inn. Coffee and water always available. Parking was easy and you could walk everywhere so you could keep your car parked. Highly recommend it!
Gail, 2-night trip

The staff most of all. Everyone of them that I met went out of their way to make our visit fun and laid back.
Tom, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The manager was very friendly and personable. She gave suggestions of places to eat in the area and made sure we didn't need anything. The room was clean and bed was very comfortable. Coffee and water are available as well. Communication was great too! We hope to stay here again in our future vacations!

Super cute hotel with a touch of home

Great little hotel with a homey atmosphere, super friendly service and really cute decor. Our room was just big enough for a short stay. The bed was comfortable and they have a bunch of little extras available for no charge...tooth brush, tooth paste, coffee, tea, water, mints, etc. The first floor rooms have are suites with a kitchen. Easy walking distance to the boardwalk. Overall, this is a great place for a quick stay in Carolina Beach.
