    good shower
    bathroom cleanliness
    management promptness

    good shower pressure, pet-friendly room, location near beach

    The bathroom cleanliness truly fell short!!! A rod for the toilet paper holder should not be a luxury, yet I asked multiple times with no results. Management could use a lesson in promptness!!!

    large outdoor pool
    live music
    great restaurant
    uncomfortable bed

    I had a great time with my friends! We loved the large outdoor pool area and the award-winning on-site restaurant. Enjoying live music while sipping cocktails was the highlight after a day on the beach. The North Carolina Aquarium at Fort Fisher was a neat spot to explore, too. Just be aware that the bathroom could use more supplies, and the parking situation was a bit tight.

    The bed in our room was uncomfortable because it sagged in the middle, which made it hard to sleep well.
