my stay at the islander hotel was lovely. the rooms were clean and well-maintained, and the beach was just steps away, making it convenient for family outings. i appreciated the friendly staff who were genuinely attentive to our needs, which made our budget stay feel more like a getaway.

the bathroom lacked proper shelving.

Had a delightful stay! The views were stunning, and the comfy room made relaxation easy. Plus, the pool was a refreshing escape after beach time.

But, can someone tell the air conditioner it’s not auditioning for an opera? It was louder than my aunt at family dinners!

The room was beautifully renovated, spacious, and had stunning ocean views from the balcony. The staff was exceptionally attentive, making sure I felt comfortable and welcomed throughout my stay.

More seating options in the rooms would be helpful.

The room had a nice setup with a kitchenette featuring a microwave, mini refrigerator, and sink, making snack time a breeze. Easy walking access to the beach, along with a few beach chairs available for guests, added convenience to the stay.

Check-in felt tedious with rooms not ready until 3:30 PM, which stalled plans for some beach time. The mattress felt like it had seen better days, providing less comfort than expected. There was a noticeable musty smell in the room, possibly due to humidity, and the pool area showed signs of neglect, with visible algae. Additionally, daily housekeeping wasn’t provided during the stay.

Great beach access and friendly staff

I recently enjoyed a 3-night stay with family, and the beach access was absolutely fantastic—just steps away! Our room was clean and spacious, perfect for a family getaway. The staff went above and beyond to ensure our comfort, making it a truly pleasant experience. However, the shower in our room could use some updates to improve the overall comfort.

The smoked meats at Rucker Johns had me drooling! Plus, the pool area was spacious and perfect for the kiddos. The whole vibe of the place is just right, and you can’t beat that beachfront access!

A little outdated, the remotes were a bit rogue, controlling both TVs at once! It took me a hot minute to figure that out. But hey, we still had a blast!

Cozy room, friendly staff, with free parking and a seasonal outdoor pool that made our stay enjoyable, especially with the room offering a king size bed and access to the beach nearby.

Great location to the beach and clean organized property

It wasn’t inexpensive but still acceptable

The location was excellent, with easy beach access and a well-maintained pool area. The staff were friendly and responsive to our requests, making our stay enjoyable. However, our room could have been cleaner, as we noticed some areas that needed attention, such as the dusty furniture and a minor maintenance issue that took time to address.

The location was top-notch, right on the beach with a view that could make a postcard jealous! The free bike rentals were a sweet surprise—pedaling down to the sparkling shoreline felt like a scene from a summer rom-com. The staff was so friendly, they made me feel like I was visiting an old friend rather than checking into a hotel.

Uncomfortable beds

would definitely go back

Super clean room with a comfy king bed and a nice sofa for lounging. Loved the balcony view and easy beach access. Bathroom had shampoo, conditioner, and all the free toiletries we needed. Beach chairs were available for relaxing by the ocean. Overall, perfect spot for hanging out after a day of fun!

Had a great time with a beautiful view from the balcony and a spacious room. The free bikes were a fun way to explore, and the shower was awesome with a rain shower head! I'd definitely return.

Had a blast with friends! The location was perfect for visiting the North Carolina Aquarium and Bogue Inlet Fishing Pier. Super clean place, and the staff was friendly. We appreciated having coffee available 24/7. The beach access was easy, making it simple to enjoy our days.

The only downside was that the bathroom was a bit small. It had limited space for clothes, which made it tricky to change comfortably.

The room was spacious, very clean, and equipped with all necessary amenities for my stay. The location was excellent, providing easy access to the beautiful beach and nearby shopping and dining options. I thoroughly enjoyed the stunning sunsets and waves, creating a perfect atmosphere for a mini-vacation after work. The staff were friendly and attentive, ensuring a pleasant experience overall.

Humidity control in the room was challenging, affecting comfort.

I had a lovely stay at Islander Hotel & Resort with my partner! The beach access was incredible, making it easy to enjoy sunny days. While the bathroom lacked proper shelving, the friendly staff and comfortable room made for an enjoyable visit!
