What an amazing value!! If you're looking for a modern, high-rise hotel with hot tubs and lots of glitz and glamour, move on down the road. But if you want a clean, spacious, peaceful, relaxing "step back in time" beach experience, don't miss out on this one! Front desk personnel were extremely friendly and helpful. Room was an incredible value... More

This is an old motor court type motel. It has been around for a long time and yes it does show in some places. But the room was super clean and tidy. We had a great stay here. We stayed in Room 42, one of the pet friendly rooms. It had 2 queen beds and a kitchenette. The room was... More

My daughter and I stayed here in August on a short and short notice planned vacation. The price was very affordable, and while we stayed in a courtside room we still had great access to the beach. The location is very good in terms of accessing recreation and stores, restaurants etc. as well. I gather the rooms vary and you... More

Each and every year, for the past 20 or so years, we have made the trip to the Outer Banks and every year we stay here ! We live here for about 2 weeks and cater to many of our wholesale accounts while we are here. We never have to worry about the hotel, the people, the service, or anything... More

Been here 5 nights with 2 to go. The staff is friendly, the beach access is great and the layout is a trip back in time to what vacationing in OBX should be like! Great so far and feels like I am on vacation and not just stopping off and staying at someones house!!

My husband and I stayed 5 days the week of Labor Day. We got there 2 hours early, but they let us check in immediately. We had an efficiency facing the beach and the view was breathtaking! Yes, the rooms are older, but as everyone else has said, the new owners are working to update things. The rooms are spotless,... More

We've been staying at Outer Banks Motor Lodge since 2004. The lodge was built in early 1960s and some of the decor reflects that: the bathrooms are quite outdated. It's almost like stepping back in time when one enters a room. There is still original paneling on the walls and kitchen cabinets and kitchen sinks are original as well. The... More

If you are after a brand spanking new hotel to stay in then this might not be for you but if like me you enjoy a place with a little character then book in. This motel is an authentic 1960's beachside holiday dream. It has been very well maintained and retains all the charm of a bygone era. Big rooms,... More

I was worried at first that I would regret staying here, but I have never been happier with a motel! The rooms are basic (we did not stay in one of the efficiencies) but super clean and the bed was really comfortable. We decided last minute to stay an extra night and the staff was so gracious and helpful. Laundry... More
