Room needed updating had a musty smell. Tv had no directions on how to use their cable provider so couldn’t change channels. We left after 1 night even though we paid for 2 nights so we lost money! Won’t stay here again 👎

The property location is excellent, on the BEACH !! The outside grounds were pretty and appearance was great. The staff ... HALEY & TIFFANY Were AWESOME to deal with. I had some issues with the room ... TIFFANY & HALEY were able to help with rectifying the situation. These units are individually owned which can be challenging when a problem arises.

Great location on Wrightsville Beach. Small space was fine for my husband and myself. The particular condo we rented (213) needs some maintenance attention that I reported to the front desk. While the unit appears clean and neat, the floor was obviously not kept as clean as it could be, because my feet were dirty on the bottom after walking barefoot for an hour. Housekeeping left hair in the shower drain, which made me wonder if it had been cleaned properly prior to our arrival.

A lot of long hairs on the room floors and bathrooms, older furnishings, tub fixtures were pitted. Sheets( long hair on sheet also) and towels were not the greatest but serviceable. I had a few bug bites and not sure from where or when. There wasn’t anyone to help with bags. The ice machine was out of ice. The elevator walls were sketchy. On the other hand the room had a great view, it was a short watch to the beach and the pool area was clean and we were there only a couple days and had a good time.

I attended a wedding it was beautiful location and setting. Food was delicious. What I don’t like was that when we shower water wouldn’t go down I went to lobby and informed them but the issue was not resolved . They didn’t service the room once and on the back of the headboard was very dirty.

Very bad. Do not stay there. Waisted time.
Horrible. The sofa was very old and sinking. Could not get out of it. The resort needs upgrades it is not even worth to stay there. Everything was old and dirty. The manger did not offer any accommodation except every room as privately owned. Not engaging. Did not care. Wow. If I could I need my money back.

One of our requirements was a wheelchair accessible room. We were first given a room that the wheelchair wouldn't even go through the bathroom door then we were given a room that you could get through doorways, but the bedroom was very tight for a wheelchair and the bathroom was not at all wheelchair accessible. On our checkout day we decided to go eat breakfast at the hotel. When we walked into the restaurant there were only two other tables that had customers. They told us to sit anywhere and then people started pouring in and the waitress was taking everyone else's orders before us. She finally came and took our drink orders and I asked her if she could give us menus and she took forever bringing us menus and then she took forever to come back and take our food orders and then after an hour we still had not got our food and we know people that she took orders after us was starting to get their food before us so we just got really upset and walked out.
