Thank you for the feedback. We appreciate your understanding regarding the pool being out of service during your stay. The office staff works hard to provide a great experience, and we're glad they were able to assist you. We hope you'll consider staying with us again in the future.
We enjoyed ourselves very much. This place is perfect for multiple families wanting to stay privately with only 4 units.. NO STAIRS OR ELEVATORS so thats a big 10 rating for me. Its very peaceful and perfect area for any tourist visiting so close to the pier, the beach, food and entertainment.. Thanks for all the hospitality on making our vacation so great.

This property was perfect for us. We were just two blocks from the pier and near everything that we wanted to go to during that stay. The pool was a plus! Everything was perfect!

Thank you for the kind words! We are so glad you enjoyed your stay, and we can't wait to see you back again soon!
Overall it was ok. We’ve stayed there previously before it was managed by a company and it was nice no problems. I will say I knew going in that it’s an older place, but also knew it would be clean. However this trip we had a few issues with the heat/ac not working & rental company did respond & try to take care of it as best as they could. (Rental co-did give me a slight discount of almost one nights stay total).Kitchen could use more pots/pans, I did have to go out & buy one so I could cook, I notified the rental co and they said they would look into it. There was one big pot and 2 small pots, some cooking utensils and some pizza pans as well. TVs also had login issues and we couldn’t watch anything the night we arrived & maintenance had to look at that while they were looking at the heat. The location is within walking distance to both beach & a park which was nice. The home is located in a safe neighborhood & fenced in so if kids wanted to play in yard they could. The shower had good water pressure & linens were clean. Overall it was ok, I personally will not be coming back based off so many issues. I feel like if you’re paying for a rental co to manage your property it should have been ready to go.
Great location, walking distance to the beach and restaurants. We enjoy a family weekend at this facility, we even used the pool which was well maintained. We stayed at unit 4 which gave me the option to park in the driveway, very convenient. I would suggest to update some furniture, a bathroom/bathtub upgrade, and deep cleaning of window screens outside in the mini porch. Overall nice stay, I recommend this motel for your next visit to Kure Beach.

Great location. Property was clean but desperately needed the bathroom updated. It’s a 1 person bathroom and fixtures had not been updated in 30 years or so. Property mgmt company needs to give better directions about parking. Kitchen has updated appliances.
