Very nice place. It is rather old but that increases the atmosphere of being at the beach. I will definitely stay here again.

I liked that the accessibility to get to our room was easy with safe steps, that the room was clean and ready when we got there. Staff was friendly. Loved how they had it decorated for Halloween! Just a pleasant stay, as it has been the each of the 7 times we were there!

Didn’t like that every room is a smoking room. No hairdryer, box or tissue or guest shampoo/conditioner. Did like that rooms have fridge & microwaves. Rooms are very old but clean.

All rooms were smoking. The tub wasn't clean. The curtains & bedspreads were outdated and oversized. The soft chair was over-used and old. Lots of noise & banging from room above our room. Terrible parking, not enough. The beach is much further than the map shown shows.

The property is exactly as advertised. It is an older motel and rooms are small. However; the staff are all very friendly and helpful. Rooms were very clean and the pool is wonderful. Love the fact that they have a kiddie pool (big enough for 6-8 young children). They can splash to their content.

Captain's Cove was perfect for a trip to beach with my dog! Convenient location. It's no-frills, but has everything needed and was clean. Will definitely be staying here again.

The motel is what I needed for one night for me and my dog. I dont need frills, just clean and safe. The only problem I had was them telling me the price with my dog is an extra $50. I explained that it is advertised online with pets staying free. She said she needed to call and fix that. But I wasnt charged the extra $50. I would not stay at this motel for an extra $50. Otherwise, it was what I needed

It’s really one of those “pay for what you get” type of places. When you’re vacationing on a budget I recommend this place. Keep in mind that you give up a few “higher quality” items when you pay for a cheaper place to stay. They only provide small bar soaps and not the travel size shampoos, conditioner, or body wash like a hotel would. The cleanliness of the room was good, but the beds seemed much smaller than a queen size. There seemed to be more long term residents and I’d say they were not necessarily the type I’d intentionally put my family and valuables around. EVERY room is a smoking room and reeks of cigarettes. They did not have a broom in the room which I thought was odd given it’s the beach and the sand you track into the room. It is within walking distance of a restaurant and ice cream place, it also has a side street that you could walk to the beach. All in all it was an okay place to stay for a short getaway and to bring along our dog, but it definitely isn’t somewhere I’d want to stay for longer than a weekend.

The staff was super friendly! Our room was clean overall. The only issues we had were the drain in the tub wasn’t draining but I just unscrewed the plug completely to let it drain, we did find one small roach and spider in the restroom but they were killed and disposed of. The motel in general has a lot of trees and shubbrery so bugs are to be expected occasionally. Overall we had a great experience on a budget! The motel is only a block from the ocean and close enough to multiple businesses to walk. Will definitely visit again.

Rude check in person. Room was horrible. Not cleaned. Had to get someone to vacuum. We assume the person next door to our room lives there because they have a cat and we kept hearing knocking on their door all night long. The beds did not even have a box spring. It was just one mattress on top of another. The pillows were stained. The pool was clean. Booked for two nights. Couldn’t stay the second night. Booked the Holiday Inn. Much better.

One word: ROACHES. Sometimes life requires that you take a budget friendly option, but I would not even pay half the cost to stay here! The lady at check-in was entirely unprofessional as we tried to fix a hiccup in the reservation. Finally done there, we get to our room and its AWFUL. Carpet hasn't been shampooed in 20 years or more, walls and baseboards were filthy, and comforters were years old and were literally patched and faded to where you barely could see the original design. When we came back from dinner, there was a roach crawling on the wall, one in the tub, and two others decided my toiletry bag was interesting to play in, GROSS!!!! I can handle older and worn, but filthy and bug-infested I will not. We will never, NEVER, stay at this place again! My skin is still crawling....

This property should not be listed on Hotels.com. This was the worst scumhole we have ever had the displeasure of staying in. We would not have stayed past the first five minutes if we had another choice, but it was the beach and Memorial Day Weekend. Although illegal in NC, all the rooms were smoking rooms, as well as the common areas, even where they did laundry. Even the clothes we didn't wear, our suitcases, shoes and everything smelled like cigarettes when we got home. There was a small TV with a non-working remote. There were no hair dryers, no shampoo, and threadbare, dirty towels and bed linen. The "pool" was a joke and had cracked, pitted walking areas that were dangerous, especially being wet. The "shower" at the pool was a spigot with an indentation in the sidewalk to catch the water which overran into the parking lot. There were people smoking and drinking alcohol with children at the pool and in the "playground". The people at the check-in desk were smoking and blowing it in our faces. There was not enough parking so that when we came back from dinner we had to park next door in a filthy lot. There were people grilling with giant fires in the common areas that were also dangerous. I must reiterate THIS PROPERTY SHOULD NOT BE LISTED ON HOTELS.COM. If it would get me anywhere, I would demand a refund, however, I know that would get me nowhere. Our Memorial Day weekend (and we're both veterans) was ruined because of this dump!!!

We were so pleasantly surprised with this place! The room was spacious and even had a table to sit at. Everyone we talked to was so friendly and the atmosphere was easy going and laid back. The walk to the beach was easy and quick, plus the beach access was one of the less busy ones which was nice. We didn’t use the pool but it was a plus to have that. We will definitely be coming back!

Totally rustic. It was nice. Not nice like a new resort, nice like you feel at home staying there. Clean enough to be healthy, dirty enough to be happy. Thinking about going back someday to stay for a month.
