    I adored my stay at Golden Sands Oceanfront Hotel in Carolina Beach! The picturesque ocean view and friendly staff made my solo trip a delight. However, minor noise disturbances from adjacent rooms and the pool area slightly dampened the tranquil ambiance. Can't wait to visit again!

    I keep returning for the welcoming staff. They kindly assisted my elderly parents on our first visit. The hotel perfectly suits my needs with Wi-Fi, 24-hour reception, bar, and indoor pool. This Easter, I'm excited to come back.

    The hotel was located just next door to the beach, Grandma's Restaurant, which cooks a great breakfast and shops. The most important was the staff - incredible and efficient people. The location was magnificent, for example, Cb Surf Shop was not too far from the venue.

    There was breakfast to be added.

    The food at the beachside bar was top-notch, and being able to order right there was super convenient. The strong water pressure from the showerhead felt amazing! The balcony was facing the restaurant below, so we couldn’t escape the constant food smells, yet the crashing waves made up for it. 🌊

    From fitness to ocean views, this place has it all. I forgot to pack toiletries, but the gift shop saved me. The indoor pool was a hit, great for a rainy day. The seafood at the restaurant was top-notch. I enjoyed the live music and cold drinks at the Tiki Bar. My scuba diving gear came in handy here too. Being an Indian who loves marine life, the oceanfront balcony stole my heart. Can't wait to dive back in!

    Great location, just a 15-minute walk to a beautiful sandy beach. The staff here are super friendly and welcoming. The rooms are really clean and impressive, plus they come with a balcony for some extra chill-out space. 🌅

    We had a fantastic time exploring everything the NC beach town has to offer, from exciting water sports to enjoying live music at the Gazebo stage during the Fireworks by the Sea & the Boardwalk Blast Music Series. The North Carolina Aquarium at Fort Fisher was a hit with the kids, and the beach's family-friendly fair attractions made our stay exciting and educational.

    My wife says that the hotel could have offered more kid-friendly activities, such as a children's play area, which would have added value for families with children.

    The hotel was comfy and in a beachfront location not far from the shops and restaurants of the Boardwalk, and the dunes leading to the ocean.

    The pool is unmaintained, so it would be better if they did

    During my recent business trip, my director chose Golden Sands Oceanfront Hotel for our stay, and I was pleasantly surprised by the excellent location and amenities. The 113-room Carolina Beach Hotel boasts two pools, offering a relaxing escape from work. The expansive pier provided a picturesque backdrop for evening walks, and the white sand beach was a perfect spot for some much-needed relaxation. The hotel's beachfront setting ensured we could enjoy the stunning ocean views, making our stay truly memorable.

    Minor issues: Sleeper sofa uncomfortable.
