What's nearby

  • This pier makes for great sunrise photos. $2 to walk out onto it but totally worth it. Lots of avid fishermen to entertain you AND they sell beer and other beverages to carry out there with you. The Wilmington/Wrightsville Beach is a great area to visit with numerous excellent breweries and many great restaurants.

The location is great. It is a very run down motel and smells a bit like smoke in areas due to staff and guests smoking in the parking garage. Staff was friendly and helpful.

Budget friendly & comfortable

Right at the entrance to the beach, this no-frills location offers a decent room with comfortable beds & pillows. Where amenities are lacking, the location and cost still make it a good choice for the beach going budget-conscious vacationer.

Everyone we encountered from the staff were extremely nice and helpful when needed. You can see the ocean from your bed and we were one of the furthest rooms away! Great place would highly recommend.
