YES DO IT!!

I originally got the ocean view with the 2 queen beds in one room. Once we got there we requested to upgrade. Best choice to make. It was literally next door but had two rooms with 2 beds in each room a queen & twin! Full living room and kitchen area. The view was breathtaking! The most beautiful place I’ve been in a year. I will def return.

An awesome getaway place with great views!! Everyone was so kind very clean and well kept!! Due to Mother Nature there is no physical "beach access" but your actually staying right on the sand. Clean well kept pool, hot tub and kiddie pool!!! Very homey place, very private enclosed balconies and walking distance to food and some shops. I plan to go back very soon!!!

Perfect beach get away

This wonderful little mom and Pop hotel is perfect! It is just the right amount of quirky, old school beach house, and relaxing comfort. We received an unexpected upgrade last minute and could not be more grateful.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Check in was easy, was going to be later than the check in times posted. Was informed that there was sand piles in the parking lot(understandable with the recent storm). But was not expecting the beach in front of the room to be GONE and the water right against the porch. It was extremely loud. With the other houses going into the ocean it made my son feel uneasy as myself being alone with two children. The room was clean but had a smell to it I assume recent panel replacements in the room. To ease my child I felt the need to leave so he felt safe. I understood paying for the room for that night as we had been in the room and taken our bags in. But there was no option to return money for the other night I was to stay and didn’t. I’d understand if it was under other circumstances but I was never informed of the water issue and to be out hundreds is mind blowing. Never had me sign anything else. Never gave a receipt. Nothing. I’m so disappointed and upset. But my kids feeling and safty comes first. I won’t be booking here again.

If luxury not required, stay at the Outer Banks M.

This Motel has been in existence for many years and is currently undergoing some repairs/remodeling. Overall, the rooms were very clean and neat, with fridge and microwave. Location was right next to the beach, some units overlook the ocean. Compared to other locations, room rates were very reasonable. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
