Could not enjoy deck or pool because of smokers. Also hotel has no pets policy except for service dogs. Clearly the dogs last week were not service dogs A little weiner dog would run free around picnic tables peeing on everything, while their owners sat at table and chained smoked. we were told "service" dogs were booked on bottom floor. there was one on 3rd floor we could hear barking. There should be designated no pet floors for asthma and allergic people.

The hotel is close driving distance to restaurants and the Aquarium. Molly's Beachside Bar and Grill is a 3 minute walk and I recommend.

We cant wait to come back!

We were able to check in earlier than the 3pm time given online. The girls and I went into the cutest room with whales painted on the walls above painted waves. We chose a double bed room. There were two beds, a small wooden table with two chairs, another wooden bench, a dresser, small fridge, and microwave. There is a vanity with a large mirror, and a tiny bathroom with a shower/tub and toilet. The room was clean, and very neat. We had plenty of towels, as well as extra blankets for each bed. The air conditioning was working great! This hotel has two different picnic/outdoor seating areas. One is outside the area where most of the rooms are. The other outdoor area is down at the other end of the property. They had chairs, picnic tables, a grill, and even bbq tools ready to be used. The girls played with beach balls, and we were able to just sit back and relax. Their hotel also has boat slips in a little gut out back. If you choose to bring your boat, they're ready for you! The lady/owner got us into our room and was so nice. She explained the layout, and rules of the hotel. (No pets, no smoking, quiet time began at 10pm). She was so sweet. This is definitely a family-run business and is geared toward families. There is beach access directly across the road, but we took the short drive down to the Fort Macon beach area. The Caribbe Inn is close to the Morehead bridge, many restaurants, stores, beach shops, and other places you might need while at the beach. We had such a nice stay, and enjoyed our time away. We girls ate out, played on the beach, slept very well at night, and had a great stay at the Caribbe Inn! We will be back!

I almost don't wanna brag on these people, because it's hard enough already to get rooms at this…read morepet friendly boutique hotel where every room faces the ocean and has a balcony or patio (and a clothesline to line dry wet duds). The service is great. The rooms are great. (They're mostly suites, which in this case is studios with room dividers and kitchenettes.) The beach attendants make it so all I have to bring to the beach is my book and myself, they set up chairs and umbrellas. They're genuinely awesome. Be aware: you have to make reservations by catching an actual person on the phone or in person, and they do not have someone in the front office 24/7, because they care for their staff and close the desk at a reasonable hour (9p in the shoulder season, later in the summertime). There is an emergency line if you're there and need late-night help.

I had just…read moresigned up for the Hilton honors rewards program and it was my first time utilizing some of the perks. Communication was fantastic. Was able to check on my reservation through the Hilton Honors app and was able to check in through the app and even get a digital key. I did not have to go to the front desk at all. We had a room with two beds that faced the water. It was very nice. It was not over-the-top fancy, but was definitely comfortable. We took advantage of the free hot breakfast buffet the two mornings that we were there. I enjoyed the waffle that my husband made me with the waffle maker. All of the usual breakfast buffet items were there as well. Sausage, bacon, muffins, eggs, etc. The hotel lobby is very nice and the one time I did ask the front desk employee a question she was very helpful. If you are looking for a hotel that is centrally located, with very nice water views, and some nice included benefits, such as the hot breakfast buffet, you should definitely consider this hotel.

I spilled something on the bed so I pulled the sheets up from the mattress. When I came back later they just laid the sheets and blanket back down. I again had to go to the desk and ask for service. Went to the pool and some substance was floating in the corner. It looked like vomit. I alerted the staff and they said it was just pollen and suntan lotion. Pollen in late July? Was informed by other guest that 2 days prior someone had been vomiting in the pool and they never cleaned it. A guy came out with a paper towel and skimmed the water but it is very much still there.

It's a bizarre time to be reviewing most things because Covid has obviously thrown off the "normal" into many shades of grey. With that said, take this one with a grain of salt as it's only a brief snapshot in time for how things are now. In another month or two, who knows? Let's start with the good: The location to the beach couldn't be any better. Just a short walk and you're there. The hotel was sold out or near it every night we were there yet the beach area directly across the street was never busy. The same as last year with seeing the same families and people every day more or less set up in the same spot very spread out from each other. All Covidly perfect. Not so good: Hilton Honors benefits at check in are still a no here, just like last year. The beds are extremely squeaky. Any sitting/moving = high pitched squeaking. The hotel is not following the new Hilton/Lysol cleaning protocol that started a few weeks ago. No stickers on the room doors or verbiage anywhere on property. I was told at check in that if you want your garbage taken to have it in the hallway early in the morning so that housekeeping could grab it and that the only way to get fresh towels or any bedding was to stop a housekeeper in the hall with your old stuff or bring your old stuff with you to the front desk since the hotel was running extremely low. Is the hotel's linen par really that low? Is the smell of that much garbage-food in the hallways overnight a good idea? Our room was dusty/sandy when we checked in and the a/c unit was filthy. No way were either cleaned thoroughly in a while. But since there was no daily housekeeping and with the hotel being sold out the day we checked in... If you want a hotel that has a great beach location that is out of the way and quiet, this is it. Past that, things were on the dirtier side in general and I question any place not following the new cleaning protocol. Time to give this one a rest for a bit.

Con: Dirty towels left on kitchen counter. Pro: Outdoor pools were nice. Con: Horrible soundproofing. Every single sound in next door and upstairs units was heard. Kids running, chairs scraping, raised voices and music. Also, for a no pets allowed facility, 3 dogs were on our floor. Not service animals either. The biggest dealbreaker by far was the absolute nastiness of the floors, counters, baseboards, toilet seats/lids, shower floors, dining table, chairs. Every single surface was nasty. Yes, we informed the front desk but we cleaned it ourselves, except the baseboards and glass doors. After all, we were supposed to be on vacation, not the hired help.
