🏖️ WHY BOOK DIRECT? BECAUSE WHO YOU BOOK WITH MATTERS! ❤️
We know sites like Booking.com, Expedia and Airbnb make it easy to search for a room, but when you’re staying with a small, locally owned property, booking direct can make a BIG difference.

📞 YOU CAN TALK TO US!
Have an issue before or during your stay? When you book directly, you can contact our team — the people who actually know our property, our rooms and our policies. We can help you right away instead of sending you to a third-party customer service department.
❌ Need to cancel?
When you book through a third party, you generally have to go through that third party to make changes or cancellations. When you book directly with us, you deal directly with us.
💰 YOU MAY SAVE MONEY!
Third-party booking sites charge hotels fees and commissions, and those costs are built into the overall pricing. Booking direct can mean better rates and access to specials that aren't available on third-party sites.
🐾 DIRECT-BOOKING SPECIALS!
For example, this month we're WAIVING pet fees when you book directly with us! ❤️
That special is not available through third-party booking sites.
🏨 THIRD-PARTY LISTINGS AREN'T ALWAYS PERFECT.
Room descriptions, amenities, photos and policies can sometimes be outdated or inaccurate. When you book directly, we can tell you exactly what you're getting.
🔑 AND HERE'S SOMETHING MANY PEOPLE DON'T REALIZE…
If Booking.com or Expedia says we're "SOLD OUT," that doesn't necessarily mean our hotel is actually sold out!
Hotels control how many rooms they make available to each third-party site. We may give Booking.com only 2 or 3 rooms to sell. Once those rooms are gone, their website may show SOLD OUT — while we still have rooms available to book directly!
❤️ MOST IMPORTANTLY — YOU'RE BOOKING WITH US, NOT A COMPUTER.

📞 Call us: 910-622-8393
BOOK DIRECT. SUPPORT LOCAL. GET MORE. ❤️🌊

🔑 WHAT IT MEANS:
Our property does not have an office or front desk on site. There’s no waiting in line to check in, and no need to stop at an office when you arrive.
📱 On the morning of your check-in, we send you your room number and unique door code so you can go directly to your room when you arrive.
But here's what SELF CHECK-IN DOES NOT MEAN:
❌ It does NOT mean you're on your own.
❌ It does NOT mean you can't talk to someone.
❌ It does NOT mean there isn't anyone available if you have a question or an issue.
❤️ WE ARE STILL HERE FOR YOU!
📞 Call or text us at 910-622-8393
💬 Message us through our text messaging system
📅 We are available 7 days a week
🧹 We also have housekeeping on site daily
Our goal is to give you the convenience of coming and going on your own schedule while still having a team available when you need us.
Self check-in = less waiting, more flexibility, and an easy arrival — not less service! 🌊☀️
Come enjoy the freedom of a contactless stay while knowing we're just a phone call or text away! ❤️

Did you know the Carolina Beach Inn was built way back in 1940's?
For more than 75 years, this little inn has been part of the story of Carolina Beach. And it has even had another name along the way — the Mount Vernon Inn!
Long before the big resorts and modern hotels, families came to Carolina Beach to enjoy simple beach vacations, make memories, and spend time together by the ocean.
And this little piece of history has seen a lot!
The Carolina Beach Inn has made it through numerous hurricanes and coastal storms over the decades and is still standing today. There’s something pretty special about that.

📖 Once known as the Mount Vernon Inn
🌴 One of the oldest inns on Carolina Beach
🌊 Just 1,200 feet — about 2 blocks — from the beach
🐾 Pet-friendly
✨ Full of old Carolina Beach charm

We love that we're not just another hotel. We're a small part of the history of Carolina Beach.
So the next time you stay with us, take a look around and remember — these walls have been welcoming beachgoers for more than 75 years! ❤️
Some places are built. Some places become part of a community. And some become part of its history.
Come stay at a little piece of Carolina Beach history.
