Shell Island Resort - All Oceanfront Suites

Shell Island Resort - All Oceanfront Suites

8/10 Good
"The hotel does not appear to be cleaned very often. Elevators were dirty, balcony was dirty,. Place handheld showerhead on the shower floor because it was dripping and placed a washcloth underneath it and in the morning the cloth was black. The hot tub was not working because the switch was completely broken. Expected more cleanliness from a hotel like this."

"Great property located on Wrightsville Beach. Although the hotel structure is a little older, all of the updates made by Trailborn have made the property feel new. All the amenities are there with a nice small pier across the street on the sound side of the island for watching sunsets."

10/10 Excellent
"It’s a basic motel in a “hotel row” part of town. Its economy, so you expect a certain degree of salt of the earth in the guests and locals. But it serves the purpose we need it for, a clean bed and cold room after traveling all day/night. The staff was friendly and helpful and I had a comfortable stay."
