My stay at the hotel was an overall lovely experience. The rooms exceeded my expectations in terms of space and ocean views, but there was a slight hiccup with accommodating our group of five. The service was top-notch, with friendly and accommodating staff. The location was truly fantastic, offering beautiful views and easy beach access. Unfortunately, dining options were limited during our stay, but the homemade ice cream was a delightful treat.

The hotel is located at the very end of Wrightsville Beach, offering a quiet and beautiful marsh area with wildlife. The staff is kind and welcoming, but the parking is limited and comes at a cost. The rooms are spacious, like mini condos, perfect for a week-long stay, but the location could have been more conveniently arranged.
