10/10 Excellent
"We were amazed at this hotel! Loved it! The room was incredible and had a view of the water we didn’t expect. The staff was great. The breakfast was pretty good and it was delivered to our door! There were also fresh baked cookies and access to a nearby gym and pool! The convenient location allowed us to get to the beach quickly, Beaufort even more quickly, and there were places to eat within walking distance. We hope to stay here again!!"

"Wow! This hotel was amazing! We stayed in the building where you check in, which was hotel style. We were on the second floor with a balcony facing the ocean, a bit of the pool and the two story motel-like section of the property. Our balcony had 2 Adirondack chairs and a little table. Everything was super clean-including the sparking pool! There is a little drinks bar at the pool (usually open noon or one until 7) with both alcoholic and non-alcoholic margaritas and daquiris. Pizza, more family friendly mixed drinks and wine bar with snacks within walking distance. Lots of parking and super friendly staff! Will definitely be back on our next beach trip to NC!"

"We really injoyed our stay at Atlantic Beach Resort. They offered a close stay to the beach with aminites like 2 outdoor pool and 1 indoor which was a plus . You can tell the resort is aging but it has been kept up pretty well and was clean. It was not very crowded but that may have beed because it was close to off season. Where we stayed was and 2 bedroom 2 bath suite, with a kitchen and dining room. Everything you could have thought of was provided. All plates, utensils, cups, and cook wear. We were also supplied beach towels and plenty of linen. The room was nice and clean and was a good place to relax. Will make plans to stay there again. I believe it was worth the price for the value."
