I enjoyed two very nice breakfasts and one dinner at the Madbatter restaurant. My room and the service throughout my stay were very comfortable for a solo traveler. I would stay at the Carroll Villa another time, hopefully for a longer stay.

We were given this stay as a gift and it was fabulous. The only bad thing was the weather, it rained the entire time we were there....but we made the best of it. The room was cozy and the food was fabulous.

We had a delightful stay at this restored Victorian hotel a block from the beach. Complimentary parking was a few blocks away. Our third floor queen room was very comfortable and the location was perfect. biking, walking, shopping opportunities abound. Our only disappointment was the lack of a porch on which we could have an afternoon drink or read. The... More

It has become our tradition to start the summer at the Carroll Villa. We love the mixture of antiques, art, and comfort when it comes to design and furnishings.

The travelzoo deal included a lot which made it so worth it-right next door to the virginia hotel---best dinner we've had in a while! Wine tasting was great @ Hawk Haven and brunch @ the Mad Batter was fantastic!

There are many inns in this neighborhood. Some are more refined and a bit more updated but the Caroll Villa is a pleasant stay with clean rooms and a convenient restaurant on the ground floor. Don't bring more luggage than you can haul up two or three narrow flights of stairs and be ready to hike a half mile to... More

This hotel is more of a B & B. I attended a watercolor workshop there for 4 days and the owners were so accommodating. My room was a nice size, it was cool so I opened the windows for the spring air. Located right on Jackson street where you can walk right out and be close to all the shops... More
