We stayed here for 2 nights December 2011. It was one of only a few hotels open. The cost was really good, room sized nicely and always a plus to have a microwave and fridge in the room. The view was wonderful. The negatives were poor to non existent wifi, poor lighting in the room and a shower that wasted... More

We were at the Golden Sands for the weekend wedding of our neighbors. They got married at a beach home down the beach on a beautiful Saturday evening in September. Carolina Beach/Kure Beach are little patches of heaven - even weeks after Hurricane Irene! The Golden Sands hotel is right on the beach with three convenient walkways over the dunes.... More
