Beacon House


  • Welcome to our spectacular North Carolina Beach bed and breakfast. The Beacon House Inn was originally a 1950s Boarding House that has been transformed into a romantic retreat, although modern day comforts have been added much of the original charm is still apparent throughout. Our comfortable décor is meant to be enjoyed with touches of vintage photographs and ocean memorabilia. We won't try to take you back in time, but rather remind you of when life was simpler with hopes that this will inspire a very relaxing stay at the Inn. Leave the frenzy behind, curl up on the couch, or relax on one of our three decks, while embracing your choices of doing everything or nothing at all. It really is up to you! In addition to friendly, hospitable service, we offer full home made breakfasts each morning, comfortable beds, quality linens, air conditioning, free wireless internet and local discounts.

    My girlfriend and I stayed at the Beacon House for our Valentine's Day Weekend get away. It was each of our first times to Carolina Beach as well as our first experience with a B&B. Fantastic!! Noah and Charlotte are awesome inn keepers who take pride in their inn and their work. What an awesome team. The compliment each other in this enviroment perfectly. Breakfast was incredible each morning. I would recommend The Beacan House to anyone and we will return ourselves. We had the "Romance" room and it was perfect. The air was cold and windy, but each night we were completely cozy and comfortable. Book your room and enjoy your stay, you will not be disappointed.

    My wife and I really ejoyed the coziness of the house and we were well taken care of by Noah and Charlotte. Easy beach access, a large parking space for our SUV and a wonderful breakfast. We had asked for some special touches for our anniversary and Noah and Charlote did not disappoint with their attention to the little details. Thanks and we will be back!

    I was only there one night; stayed in the Pineapple Room which was very comfortable and clean. The breakfast was wonderful and filling. The Beacon is just a short walk to the beach. I would highly recommend this B&B and will stay there again if I am in the area.

    My wife and I spent 3 nights at the Beacon House. The inn-keepers, Noah and Charlotte were very helpful with our questions and went out of there way to make us feel welcome and comfortable. If we return to the area, we will certainly stay here again.

    We thoroughly enjoyed the pampering we received at Beacon House B&B. They were always available. The accommodations were wonderful. Charlotte's breakfasts were exquisite. Noah and Charlotte were a good resource for information regarding things to do and places to eat. It takes special people to last in the B&B business. Noah and Charlotte are the consummate hosts. Their cheerful smiles suggest they are here for the long haul. My wife and I look forward to our next visit to Beacon House.
