The Carolina

Fodor's Review:

In business since 1901, this stately hotel has never lost its turn-of-the-20th-century charm. Civilized pleasures await in the spacious public rooms and elegantly traditional accommodations, on the rocker-lined wide verandas, and amid the gardens. You can tee off on one of eight golf courses or relax in the spa, with warm, dark wood accented by a moss-green-and-cream color scheme. The 45-room Manor Inn has the feel of a B&B; guests have access to all the resort facilities, including the formal Carolina Dining Room, with an eclectic menu. Pros: historic setting combined with attentive service and luxurious amenities make staying at the Carolina a special experience. Cons: the resort is geared to golfers and spa-goers with deep pockets, so bring plenty of cash.
