It is in a beautiful location. Dining room was closed when we wanted to eat usually. The hot tub which was great had broken jets. The indoor pool was cold. It looked better on the web. Lol....needs updated for the amount paid to stay there. Staff was super friendly and parking was fantastic. So a mixed experience

Always a pleasure to stay at Shell Island, the beach is amazing and it’s so convenient to get there from our beautiful room! We found Shell Island when our son went to UNC-W and have stayed there a couple of times a year for about 9 years!

The room was clean when we arrived and had a great view of the ocean. Staff members were very nice and polite. The variable hours and quality of the restaurant were a bit of a bummer. The room did not have blankets for the sofa bed and the front desk didn’t have any either.
