"This is an outstanding motel! The rooms are, in a word, immaculate! My family and I have been staying here for years and would recommend this establishment for anyone looking for a well maintained, extremely clean place to stay in Ocracoke."

"Love this hotel! Very beautiful and historic building. Much better than any big chain motel/hotel. Access to a wonderful private beach as well as an outdoor pool. The hotel offers bikes to grab and explore the island. The staff is very polite and helpful!"

"Wonderful place! Great homey feel. Breakfast and tea time (happy hour) included. Free Wi-Fi can be spotty and drops out intermittently. Beach is across the street and plenty of shopping and dining options nearby."

"Best bang for your buck on the Outer Banks. Quiet, cozy, peaceful. Grounds are immaculate. Staff is helpful & kind. Highest recommendation."

"The most friendly customer service I have encountered. The staff made me feel right at home. I love all the amenities they have to offer. The beach towels, pool towels, beach chairs and beach umbrellas provide so much less hassle in packing."

"Love my stay here. They have free towel rental for the beach do you don't need to get your towels dirty"

"Beautiful, friendly staff, great location, very clean, comfortable, and awesome wifi for working too."

"Stay here and be charmed. - I could go on and on about this place but the service at desk and housekeeping was outstanding, everyone was very friendly. Though early in the season, no employee there seemed worn down by the incessant questions by tourists of where to go and where to eat. Rooms were absolutely gorgeous, full of antiques (building is from 1932); I would recommend this to anyone that wants to stay in a place with class and has character as opposed to some modern cookie-cutter hotel. Full A+ all the way."

"Have other places on the island, been the best and returning soon. The upper floors provide the best view !!"

"beautiful"

"This motel is very great to stay, I went with my parents, and had lots of fun!"

"Booked online without knowing really what we were getting. However this place ROCKED!! Across the street from the beach, nice place to eat right beside it and hug grassy area behind it for games. Simple, old, cozy and very clean little motel. Full fridge in the room with nice comfy beds. Table to eat with big chairs and microwave. Lots of storage space for your luggage. We stayed in a 2 double bed room with a roll away and still was bigger than some rooms we have stayed in before. Friendly staff and very helpful with suggesting things to do. My kids loved the pool area and they even have grills for you to cook out with if needed. Will def go back and stay here again when visiting the OBX."

"Stayed here for a weekend trip recently and loved it! Literally steps away from the beach and the staff is very friendly and helpful. It's certainly not a luxury resort but it doesn't try to be. The rooms are clean, comfortable, roomy and quiet. I definitely plan on returning for my next trip to OBX."

"Baller on a Budget status. We will be back!! Stayed here for a wedding weekend because we didn't want to break the bank. Had low expectations going in, but was quickly turned around once we got there. Beach access across the street, pool onsite, and a great restaurant beside it. Very friendly and helpful staff. We will be back!!!"
