I stayed at the Dunes for 3 nights and have no complaints. Our room was very clean and the folks that operate the place are extremely pleasant and accommodating. While this is a older motel the owners are making the effort to upgrade. While we were there new carpeting was being installed in many of the rooms. This work was... More

In September 2012 I was with a group which stayed at the Dunes Motel during a guided tour of Cape Cod. I was not at all prepared for the “Dunes experience.” Where to start? I remember the Eisenhower administration (1953-1961). The Dunes Motel must have been here then and VERY little has changed. It all came flooding back when I... More

After returning here many years, the Dunes has deteriorated to the point of "no more returns" for us. The place changed owners a couple times since Greg sold it. You can only use a facility so long, then you HAVE TO update. Torn rugs, blankets with numerous holes, and cleanliness at marginal level. The help, though courteous, don't understand you... More

Had a wonderful experience with an overnight stay at the Dunes. Owner stayed open awaiting our late arrival, didn't arrive until after 10:00 pm. Extremely clean and the staff were very helpful in meeting our needs. There were other people there who stay at the Dunes during their yearly visits to the Cape. The TV, fridge, micro, hair dryer were... More

We loved our stay at The Dunes Motor Inn. It had everything we were looking for: affordable rate, excellent location, clean, relaxing, and friendly staff. We loved being off of busy route 28, but close enough for a quick drive to local attractions. A short walk took us to the beautiful beach and a great local restaurant. The room, grounds,... More

We were looking for a clean, comfortable, cheap no frills motel. If this motel was $75 cheaper, I'd give it a positive review. But it's way too expensive for what they offer. Room - The two full beds in our room were tiny and the matresses were too firm. The tv was from the 1980's; I know, my family had... More

Our room was disappointing in many ways--although this is by far the least expensive hotel in this area. Cons: The room smelled very musty, and was so damp that a bathing suit hung to dry on a Wednesday was not dry by the following Monday. We could not hang anything in the closet area because the A/C, in the closet... More
