Hampton Inn & Suites Carolina Beach Oceanfront
The breakfast is the typical Hampton Inn fare. Had something from each category of breakfast foods. All well heated, frozen preprepared, such as small tin omelets with a cheese inside, thin bacon, sausage gravy and biscuits, and waffles you make from batter.

The Starlite Inn
Great location and very cute room! I wish there was somewhere on the property for me to put my luggage since the early check-in fee was outrageous, but, other than that, I had a great stay! I would definitely recommend to anyone who wants to stay near the boardwalk.

Fantastic ocean beach view from the balcony! Could see Wilmington buildings a few miles to the South. Shell Island Resort is at the end of the beach road! Walk the beach 1.5 miles northward the the ocean "river" flowing into the salt water marsh...Amazing!
