Top Airlie Hotel Reviews

Shell Island Resort - All Oceanfront Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Every unit has a beautiful waterfront view of the ocean. The indoor pool and exercise room give you active things to do even on rainy days. The balcony is a relaxing area to share a drink or star gaze. Overall a very relaxing lace to enjoy the beach."

Holiday Inn Resort Lumina on Wrightsville Beach by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Really nice beach hotel. I stayed there for a conference. Burger is good in restaurant and the coffee is good at the snack shop. Very very nice staff and it is very clean. I felt the beds were comfortable the only draw back was the water pressure in the shower."
