Fantastic ocean beach view from the balcony! Could see Wilmington buildings a few miles to the South. Shell Island Resort is at the end of the beach road! Walk the beach 1.5 miles northward the the ocean "river" flowing into the salt water marsh...Amazing!

Hotel Ballast Wilmington, Tapestry Collection by Hilton
Our toilet was overflowing when we checked in but the staff was quick to fix it. The hotel grounds were beautiful and was in a perfect location!!! It was raining while we were there but the outdoor areas were still neat and would be even better if the weather had been nicer.
