Absolutely lovely in every way possible! The beach was breath-taking. The view of the beach and ocean from the balcony was amazing. The bed was comfy (not that I slept much...trying to soak in all the beach/ocean/sunrise/sand I could in 2 days). The water was hot. The kitchenette was cute and well-stocked with utensils, cups, plates, etc. The decor was adorable, relaxing and inviting. The only downside we encountered involved the on-site restaurant. They closed at 4 p.m. and Monday morning, when ordering breakfast, they had no biscuits, and we were the first order they took. And then it was closed the entire day the next day. But, that could have been for cleaning, maintenance, short-staffing...a number of things. It was just a bummer because I was looking forward to dining there on multiple occasions.

You are paying for the location, right on the beach at the end of the barrier island. The building is older. All suites face the beach, all units are individually owned, which means some may be nicer than others. Ours needed a major overhaul. Wrightsville, NC is a great area, and we enjoyed our stay but the Shell Beach Resort needs a major facelift.

Nice stay

In the first room that we stayed room 314 was okay, but I noticed and also my wife did also, a foul smell near the dinette table that seemed to be a smell of animal feces which was a turn off. It was a faint smell that could be smelled off and on. Otherwise everything was okay.

Clean and everything was nice, beyond the room service. Under the bed there was broken glass, and the shower drain wasn’t working properly. You do have to grab your own toilet paper and towels or ask for them if you run out.

My family of four stayed at Shell Island for just one night. It met our needs and it was nice to have an oceanfront view. The place feels a bit dated (old fixtures, etc), so it does feel a bit pricey at $350+ per night. The staff were all very friendly and welcoming, and we were allowed to check in 2 hours before normal check in, so we really appreciated that a lot. All in all, it was a good/satisfactory stay.
