Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The check-in process was seamless…missing the human touch but very convenient. The property was recently renovated, it looks nice and it was very clean. The property has 3 little outside niche’s, 1 for grilling, 1 for gathering around and the other had ping pong and cornhole. There are 2 pools on the property as well. Overall a great stay and the price was reasonable. The walk ability was great as well!

The check-in process (digital) and room entry were very easy. I sent a text prior to arrival and got a quick response. There was a property manager on site at arrival who answered my question about parking. My two granddaughters and I stayed in the premium double queen room. It was very spacious. The beds were comfortable and there were plenty of towels, toiletries, etc. All in all, we were very impressed with with the property and staff. This was our to stay at this property and we have declared the Dry Dock Inn our hotel of choice in Carolina Beach.
