Reviews
- JoyOct 31, 2023Great Location
Drifters Reef Motel was reasonably priced and near dog-friendly restaurants and beaches.
- IainFeb 16, 2023Good location
Very convenient for the beach and marina. Pretty basic motel but clean and our dog was happy.
- RicNov 8, 2022Nice location with handy food and drinks
Friendly people and discount at nearby dog-friendly restaurant with live music.
- AudreyOct 25, 2022No hot water
It was a neat looking place. Room was very sparse. At check-in the staff member was friendly. Didn’t use the sink until late so didn’t notice there was no hot water. Determined I’d see again in the morning but had figured, if not, I’d shower at our next hotel stop. No hot water in the AM. When I went to office to check out there was no one there for me to try to get a discount. We won’t stay there again.
- AnnaAug 28, 2022Great location
Clean room! Extremely friendly and accommodating staff. Maybe we are extremely picky when it comes to our four legged family member so take this with our previous experiences at dog friendly hotels. There was a restaurant next door that offered a discount if you stayed at the hotel and came to the dog friendly establishment which we did take her too; however that was not relayed to us upon checking in. We did go to the restaurant and had a great meal; environment was great, but just didn't get the discount because we were not informed. Read about the discount in a book in the room which was placed in a drawer. The only other disappointing part was the lack of area for pets to potty. Would be nice to have a feeding and watering area in the room. Overall we would stay there again we just know what to bring and how to prepare for the things that are not provided.
- MattMar 6, 2022Good location, but too much noise
First time here. Most of the things the motel could control were acceptable. Check in was efficient and courteous. Room was clean upon entry. Room VERY basic. Small TV. Limited channels. Room too expensive for what you get. We did have a dog with us. Up charge of $33 including tax - that’s reasonable. They did have a dog run at back of property that was good to let our dog off leash for a few minutes. The area around this motel is NOISY and the rooms do NOT block any of the noise. The parking lot is shared with a restaurant/bar next door and its’ one way nature forces all traffic to drive by all the rooms. The typical vehicle in Carolina Beach is and unnecessarily loud lifted truck. Mix that with bar patrons leaving until closing time and it was tough to sleep. So if any of your humans or dogs are light sleepers, this is NOT the place for you. Lastly, the walkways smell like an ashtray. EVERY room has a bench and a cigarette receptacle. Let me be clear, I room did not smell like it, but as soon as you leave your room you are overwhelmed by it.
- LORIMar 6, 2022Rooms set up for dogs
We had a ground level room making it easy to take the dogs out. Hotel dog park was convenient but left dogs with very sandy paws.
- KeithFeb 13, 2022Nice place
It was a nice hotel for our stay. Loved that they accept our fur baby. Staff was great!!
- SandraOct 6, 2021Nice folks
Everyone was super nice, the room was a little bare bones, but was clean and just what we needed when traveling. There were some late nite peeps out, Franci didn't like that, but she finally settled down after a short while.
- TammyJun 13, 2021Perfect for dogs
Loved the whole trip!! Perfect place for dogs! Nice rooms. Great people! Great location for walking.
- StephanieApr 18, 2021No fuss, basics
Checking in and out was super quick and easy. I was worried that I might have issues because we have a bulldog, but they didn’t even ask to see her. The room had a tile floor, so it was nice not to worry about wet paws. If you’re looking for ultimate human comfort, this isn’t it. The beds were alright, but “alright” could describe the entire experience, lol. I had 3 kids and a dog with me. We were going for simple and easy, and this was perfect.
- RobertDec 23, 2020Great Dog Park in back!
Would go again!
- AshleyOct 13, 2019Review
Great location was in the middle of everything!! Very friendly staff!! Just will get a bigger place next time
- ChristinaAug 22, 2019Great location, super dog friendly!
We love staying here, there is a dog park for the fur baby and the location is phenomenal. Super close to Freeman Park where you can bring dogs. So many things within walking distance, it is our favorite place to stay in Carolina Beach!
