Wonderful Stay
I loved my stay at the Carolina Beach Motel! My room was cute and perfect as a solo traveler. Short walk to the boardwalk and beach. Will definitely plan on staying here again for future trips to Carolina Beach.

It was a great stay. Clean but small rooms. Dog friendly. The biggest complaint was the pool was gross to the point where the water was greenish and not clear.

Awesome place!
This was an amazing place to spend the weekend!! Super clean, super cute, totally walkable to everything you want/need. We loved the assigned parking space, too! We stayed in Room 4 and had a huge patio space with comfy places to sit. Additionally, it was great that, after checking out, you can stay parked there for a few hours to get in more beach time before leaving

great location, but a few concerns.
We were in room #1. Love the location, but parking was really tight. Unfortunately, there was no way to adjust the direction of the air flow from the the split A/C unit, so the air blew directly on our heads. The tenants above us made a lot of noise and often sounded like they were moving furniture. I wish we had brought a fan to drown out the noise.

My only issue was the number of texts i got the day we left for our trip. It asked me to sign saying i read the rules of the motel. It also said we could not park until 4pm the day we arrived. These are things that should be disclosed and requested way before i leave for my trip. I found it very inconvenient to not be able to park until 4pm that day. The texts also said you had to pay a pet fee. none of that was disclosed on the hotels.com.website. luckily my dad was able to keep our dogs at his house.

Sweet newly renovated two-story motel. Has a pool, lots of lounge chairs and one parking spot per room. Self check-in, no front desk, but quick response via text for everything. Great concept. Walk to everything.

Cute motel
Very cute motel located a short walk from the beach. Upon arrival noticed hair in shower but house keeping were there and quickly remedied the situation. The young lady was kind and professional and let us know about other services available, such as extra towels or bedding.
It would be nice to have more than one trash can available as there was only one in the bathroom and at the coffee bar, nowhere to put your trash.
Great balcony area which was very much used even with tropical storm rolling in.

Unacceptable we won’t be back!
Room was very tight could barely walk around the bed,microwave and coffee maker wasn’t plugged up. Had to sit them in the floor next to an outlet to be able to use. Shower curtain was too short so if you tried to take a shower, the water came out on the floor of the bathroom, we were scared it might mess up the floor and we be charged for the damage, it was so small you couldn’t turn around Inside of it so we didn’t use Had to wash up out of the sink !Was not the room I saw looking at the pictures Just a very, very small room.
