Nice place good location,,bring your own towels and linens they give you one towel one wash cloth one set of bed linens for your stay even if it's 7 days we stayed a week and got one towel and one wash cloth other then that can't beat the beach access for the price

The room was alright and location was perfect but the pool was filthy and bugs all in. Don't think it was even cleaned for awhile. Definitely needs to be kept up if you want your customers to enjoy it. And the beds, well they need to be changed out to better mattresses. Especially if you have a bad back. Have great day.

I almost didn't want to write this review not because of any negative experience but because I feel like I'm giving away a secret. We just had a WONDERFUL experience with the Sea Gull Motel, a plain basic room but that is exactly what we wanted. The beach is literally out our door, it's incredible. Door code system worked great and we had literally no issues at all. It was clean, simple and perfect for us and our pups.

???I booked this on Air BNB for a Dec 07 check in. We arrived at 408pm. It is a chilly day (low 40s) with a gale coming tonight. The room was very cold with no heat on. The heating unit was an old European-style wall unit that did not work. It didn’t turn on and obviously did not heat. I called the host, Kees Vacations, and spoke with their off-site after hours line. There is NO on-site office or staff; the door is code you are sent. The after-hours help line told me they would make a maintenance request and I would be contacted by them. After an hour, I called again but no answer. I messaged them on Air BNB; no answer. I then called Air BNB who tried to contact Kees Vacations to no avail. I requested a full refund of $157 which I was granted.I do not recommend staying here. The lack of care and response from the “host” also speaks to the quality of the property…. Not well taken care of. We ended up driving to Buxton and staying at the Hatteras Island Inn, which is like a 5* property compared to the Seagull. The locals we met along the way all said “ohhhhh that makes sense” when we told them about our predicament; apparently it is well known for its low quality. Steer clear and find somewhere else to stay!!!

I'm glad I booked before I read the reviews! My confirmation email arrived the night before my stay with all the info provided. The door code worked with no problem. The location is perfect. Close to the Hatteras ferry and across the dune from the ocean. But it's also far enough away that you don't feel crowded. Extremely family and pet friendly. I was also texted daily to see if I needed anything. There is no routine housekeeping, and they do ask that you take your trash with you, but there is a dumpster on site to put it in. The walls are a bit thin, but you're at the beach to be at the beach, not hole up in a room. If you're a no fuss traveler who doesn't expect to be waited on 24/7 or a more introverted person that prefers less contact, this is definitely a great place to stay.

We love this place! Basic, cheap for this area, clean, great location, spacious rooms! Not pretentious at all! Dog friendly, easy access to the beach. If you are high maintenance, don’t stay here. If you like it simple, quiet and clean? Stay here. And get yourself a seafood boil from Miss Vickie down at Harbour Seafood Market!

The room was disappointing:Small crawling insects throughout. Mattress extremely worn and uncomfortable. TV would not connect to the internet for a signal. Outside walkway light served as the rising sun all night long.

Inexpensive. Nice rooms, super clean, mini fridge and microwave. Keurig and regular coffee pot. Steps from the beach. Outdoor grills, pavilion. Lots of grass to walk your dogs. Great place for pet lovers!

The location is great. The rest leaves a lot to be desired.The motel has no reception. After booking, a door code should come via SMS. But it didn't come. We only received an information SMS. When I asked via SMS, I received a message to be patient because they close at 5:00 p.m. (Sorry we missed you, we are currently out of the office. Our office hours are 9AM - 5PM. Someone from the team will get back to you as soon as possible). Quite reassuring in the evening at 5:30 p.m. when you can't get into the room and have already paid... After about 40 minutes, a code came without comment... no sorry, nothing.The room smelled musty and had an old carpet and 2 quite narrow beds (<queen size). You also receive instructions on what to do before you leave... We then received another welcome text message the following morning... the whole thing was really strange! In summary… once and never again!

Mattress and chairs need to be replaced. Springs are sprung and sag badly. No one to service until you leave. Good location on the beach. Really needs to be remodeled but then you will have to pay

They never sent an email with confirmation of room number and key code, so at the time we arrived it took 15 minutes on the phone to get code and room number.2 Pillows had bad smell like humidity or not laundry well.Bot bottles from the shampoo dispenser were completely empty.traps of the shower and the sink must clean up because a strong bad odor of drainage.

Showed up and the toilet was completely busted. Showerhead is moldy and rusted. Floors are tiled, and the "kitchen" was rusted. I've had this reservation for over a month, and they still put me in this room.

The only thing good about this place is that it's close to the beach. If it wasn't for the nice Hispanic looking women and Joe, the maintenance man...we wouldn't have clean towels, toilet paper and sheets.
