Cape Hatteras Motel

Our room was right ON THE OCEAN. We sat is rocking chairs on the deck and enjoyed eating breakfast, evening snacks while watching the ocean. It could not have been any closer to the waves than if we had been riding on a cruise ship. The WiFi was excellent and we watched movies every night on our laptop. Harry, the caretaker is a very hard worker and makes sure every guest is well taken care of.

I must say the staff was excellent. If there was a need or if you had a minor concern, they addressed it quickly. They immediately assessed the issue/concern and worked on rectifying it. They were courteous and helpful. The room was clean (the last few years I’ve had to clean after the cleaning crew at different house locations), I didn’t have to do that here. Another worthy notice is there were No roaches, No bedbugs in the room and yes, I was looking (due to the last few years at other locations, so I know what to look for). No issues with the WiFi here. I had family renting housing on the island and they all had issues. Location is great. Everything you would need can be found within a mile from the location (food, clothing, miscellaneous items, etc.). Pool/Sound side is just a short walk to the beach (some of the houses have a longer walk). The beach wasn’t crowded and there’s access to the sound, you can even drive north to different parking areas for sound access with your water toys, kayaks, kite surfing etc. The AC worked the entire time, so no complaints on that. This survey asks for photos at the end, but I didn’t take any photos of the room because I didn’t have any real concerns with it.

Beachfront rooms have a beautiful view of the ocean as well as morning sunrises.

The location is on the south end of the Outer Banks and is less busy than the north end. My room was in the building overlooking the beach/ocean. It was just a short walk to the beach. You could hear the crashing of the waves as you drifted off to sleep. The staff was very responsive to requests for help or linens. The room was spacious with 2 queen beds, a microwave and fridge. Plenty places to eat and miles of beach to explore. I had a very good time and would highly recommend as a place to stay as a single or family. I was with family but had my own room. LOVED IT.

Friendly staff: This was our 2nd trip to OBX and staying at CHM, and Melinda remembered us from our last trip. It was nice to have a more personal experience, like being around friends. Great recommendations on where to eat and where to fish!! We will definitely be back!
