Reviewer: Not provided on Sat 01 Jan 2011 rated 5 out of 10.

The beds were to hard and I didn't like the layout for the beds the front bed was entirely to close to the door. The pillows had no support to them at all, which caused upper back and neck pain.

Positives: Friendly staff and cleanliness.

Negatives: Beds were too soft!! No support for spine. Also the sofa was too hard and straight had a sharp edge on it.

The staff was courteous. The pool was a bit too cold but overall, for the price, the hotel stay was outstanding. I would definitely visit again.

The staff was great, friendly and helpful, the ocean view was magnificent, food was good, location convenient, and beds were comfortable. My only disappointment was the cleanliness of the room and it could have been maintained better. I've stayed here 2 years back and had absolutely no complaints.

Positives: Personable staff and location.

Negatives: Room could have been cleaner and needed some maintainance.

Positives: Right on the ocean & close to almost anything we needed or wanted to do.

Negatives: Had problems with the key cards.

I am very disappointed with my families's last stay at the Marriott. The hotel is in a great location, nice staff, clean hotel. My entire family got food poisoning from eating the fruit and lunch wraps from their lounge restaurant. I was taken to the hospital by ambulance for being so violently ill, while my husband and 5 year old daughter were in the room sick all night long. My 7 year old son was violently ill two days prior at the hotel, and was left to fend for himself while I was at the hospital. I believed the food was safe to eat, and did not look or smell bad. The doctor said it was e-coli or salmonella. I would love to say that we would stay their again, but I won't. It was the worst experience of my life. Not only being so sick, but having to travel so far home with the entire family trying to stay awake, and not pass out from being so drained. Do not eat the food at the restaurant at the "Courtyard Marriott Carolina Beach".

Positives: Clean, good location.

Negatives: Food poisoning from their restaurant.

Upon check in we were asked what floor we would like to be on, a little thing, but very appreciated. The restaurant had a great breakfast buffet, with many choices from fresh fruit to something fixed hot for you. Hotel staff was friendly.

Positives: Beautiful view from room.

Negatives: Continuous problems with PCs provided for local information.

Reviewer: Not provided on Sat 27 Oct 2007 rated 9 out of 10.

As above.

Positives: Scenery from room balcony queen beds and spacious clean room.

Negatives: Did not like finding out that there was no continental breakfast served.

This is a very nice upscale hotel. Very clean, linens were nice. The beds looked so inviting upon entry to the room, and were very comfortable to sleep on. Pool, spa area, and exercise room were all very nice, and well equipped. I definitely will stay here again. Cost of room is relatively high in comparison to other hotels in the area, but well worth the money.

Positives: Very clean, pool & spa area clean and stocked with towels. The bedding was very, very nice. Staff very helpful, and courteous. I loved the wi-fi.

Negatives: Entrance to hotel was hard to find from the street, a large sign with directions is needed.

Look no further you found your hotel! Located right on the beach, this place is the best for the money. Clean rooms and a super friendly staff also make this a great choice. The night shift clerk baked cookies for guests! Everything you will need is provided by hotel. Chairs and umbrellas for a nominal fee. If you want to splurge and stay in a sweet hotel, this is it! You get a lot more for the money in a guaranteed quality hotel. Right down the road a piece from Wilmington. Do It! You can't go wrong here!

Positives: Location, cleanliness and staff. All top shelf. Right on the beach.

Negatives: Liked everything.

Reviewer: Not provided on Mon 16 Jul 2007 rated 8 out of 10.

I felt the staff was very friendly; enjoyed speaking with them; the town itself was charming with a variety of different shops and restaurants; and we enjoyed the slower pace of this area. The beach was clean and safe and the one instance when someone was misbehaving I was glad to see the local authorities responding relatively quickly.

Positives: The setting of the hotel on the beach; wide variety of families, old and young.

Negatives: It had an antiseptic smell to it; should have a microwave.

Reviewer: Not provided on Tue 05 Jun 2007 rated 8 out of 10.

I liked the ocean view and private balcony in every room and how close to the beach the hotel is, my girlfriend and I had a very pleasant stay.

Positives: I thought that the ocean view and private balcony were excellent.

Negatives: I thought that the indoor pool water was a little on the cold side.

Reviewer: Not provided on Mon 28 May 2007 rated 9 out of 10.

Would stay here again.

Positives: All rooms have ocean view.

Negatives: The bed wasn't that comfortable.

This was a great place to stay - easily the best hotel in Carolina Beach. Very, very clean. Staff was friendly and courteous. Restaurant had great breakfast buffet and supper was good, too. Free coffee/expresso/cappucino available in lobby at all hours. Beds were wonderful. I like Courtyard's policy of having clean sheets over blankets, etc, everything is clean for you when you come into the room. No nasty old bedspreads used by anyone - furniture was clean, too.

Positives: Great staff, extremely clean, good location.

Negatives: Indoor pool too small for size of hotel.

Reviewer: Not provided on Sun 29 Apr 2007 rated 9 out of 10.

The hotel was what I expected but, for the price it was not out of the ordinary.

Positives: Friendliness of the employees.

Negatives: Non smoking.

Positives: Location.

Negatives: Pool was Nasty.

This place is the diamond in what used to be the ruff. This whole market seems to have calmed down and is actually the best beach experience my children have ever had, even though the water was too cold in March to swim in. They had a very warm indoor pool though, many indoor plants and even more genuine smiles from the staff! I actually think they like working here. They even gave my kids cookies and Frisbees at check in. We will be back.

Positives: Staff, restaurant food, beach and views were all better than expected.

Negatives: One day, housekeeping did not get to our room until almost 3PM.

Reviewer: Not provided on Mon 01 Jan 2007 rated 10 out of 10.

This property deserves more than 2.5 stars! Excellent facility and super, super clean. We kept locking ourselves out of room and each request for new key met with smile. Pool was excellent for an indoor and breakfast pretty fair!

Positives: Staff and property excellent.

Negatives: Nothing much.

Reviewer: Not provided on Mon 11 Sep 2006 rated 6 out of 10.

Daily newspapers are provided. the pool is nice. there is no evening entertainment. otherwise, it was fine.

Positives: They give you free soap to wash your clothes in an immaculate laundry room.

Negatives: There is not much to do in Carolina beach.

Reviewer: Not provided on Thu 03 Aug 2006 rated 10 out of 10.

It was very clean, the staff members were really nice && there were even a few cute (young) boys on the staff for my daughter to look at. :) It was right on the beach and had a cute balcony for every room. It was really enjoyable.

Positives: Very Clean, Awesome Staff!

Negatives: Nothing.
