They are remodeling the entire place. Construction everywhere. The Indoor pool is closed and one hot tub. But the room is newly renovated and much nicer. The bathroom is beautiful. Great location and beautiful views. The outdoor pool is massive and the decks are nice with Lou he chairs all around.

Shell Island Resort

Nestled on the northern tip of Wrightsville Beach, Shell Island Resort is surrounded by a sprawling expanse of sand and unparalleled views of the Atlantic Ocean, Mason’s Inlet, and Figure Eight Island. This family-friendly resort and hotel boasts a front row seat to the beckoning sea and a beach that seems to stretch endlessly, making it feel like it is yours alone.

Dirty

Reviewed By stephanieaX4314MJ

Couch had stains, lampshade had holes, elevator was very dirty, water smelled funny. The only thing good about this hotel was the location & beachfront views. The front office staff seemed overworked. There was no service for rooms due to covid, but I don't believe it. Staff were not wearing masks & rooms were not very clean. Restaurant tables were sticky too. Don't stay here, we hated it so much that we gave up our $$ for 2 nights and left. They would not refund anything.

This place was 100% perfect for my boyfriend and I absolutely recommended it! The check-in process was very easy, the place itself was very clean, cute, with a great patio view of the ocean. The best part to me was the location! You're a few short minutes from anything you need, food, bars, shops and BEACH! I fell in love with this beach town and look forward to coming back and staying exactly here.

Roaches

Reviewed By taylory509

Tonight was our first night here. It looked like a cute place until the show roach family decided to show up. I’m so disgusted, we have killed several tonight and we are not staying here any longer. We will be gone in the morning to find some where else to stay.
