Check-in was quick and easy, and valet parking was incredibly convenient, especially at only $15 per day, which is totally worth it. Our room was clean, modern, and well maintained, with a beautiful view of the water. It was exactly what we were hoping for. We also ate at the hotel restaurant and were impressed with both the quality of the food and the atmosphere. Overall, this hotel was a highlight of our trip. The staff, accommodations, and location all exceeded our expectations. We enjoyed our stay so much that we've already decided this will be part of our annual trip. We look forward to coming back year after year!

The Inlet Inn is located in Downtown Beaufort, right on Front Street. It is close to the shops and…read morerestaurants. The Inn offers free parking. The staff at the front desk were very friendly and helpful during my stay. I stayed in a 2nd-floor waterfront room again, and although I didn't use the balcony as much as I had in summer, the views out the windows were still lovely, and I got to see a few sunsets. My room was large and had a king-sized bed, a couch, a table with two chairs, a good-sized flat-screen TV, a refrigerator, a microwave, and a coffeemaker. A dehumidifier was in the room, but it was less humid this time of year, so it didn't need to be emptied. Shampoo, soap and lotion were provided. The products were good quality, and I remembered to bring my own conditioner, and I am not sure why it isn't provided. I was pleased that the wifi was working on this trip, as that has been an issue on each of my previous visits. The tv lineup also had more selection. They may have switched providers for more reliable service. The heater in the room kept the room hot, it got a little too hot at times and it was just set on 63 but that made the room closer to 75. The lowest the wall unit went was 58. I couldn't find a way to shut off the ceiling fan. The bathroom could have used more attention with the cleaning. The showerhead had a lot of buildup and didn't appear to have been cleaned for months; black mold on the shower tiles and the floor could use a cleaning. It could use a deep cleaning or remodel, as the toilet was outdated and used a lot of water. Breakfast was served between 7:30 and 9:30. You could get tea or coffee, OJ, and a bagel or yogurt. It came fast this visit on the days I called for it. I left early on my last day, so I wasn't there for breakfast. They used to include the yogurt too. With the high room prices here, I hope the bathrooms are updated and cleaned, and that the breakfast options improve.

They have an inviting library lounge with a awe inspiring widow's walk overseeing the dock and inlet. We saw dolphins! This stunning motel style inn has doors that open to the outside. The Inn is not without faults, bathrooms need updating, the elevator is extremely slow and the abysmal continental breakfast is sad, very, very sad. Since paying nearly 300.00 off season, one would hope for a few more polished extras. A better breakfast and perhaps serving wine in their lounge during happy hour, would push this into a luxurious 5 star Inn. I would gladly pay for the extras just for the convenience. Overall an enjoyable stay.

Con: Dirty towels left on kitchen counter. Pro: Outdoor pools were nice. Con: Horrible soundproofing. Every single sound in next door and upstairs units was heard. Kids running, chairs scraping, raised voices and music. Also, for a no pets allowed facility, 3 dogs were on our floor. Not service animals either. The biggest dealbreaker by far was the absolute nastiness of the floors, counters, baseboards, toilet seats/lids, shower floors, dining table, chairs. Every single surface was nasty. Yes, we informed the front desk but we cleaned it ourselves, except the baseboards and glass doors. After all, we were supposed to be on vacation, not the hired help.

And yet, of all the places I have been, few can match the charm and service of this wonderful couple and this establishment. "Charming coastal" is indeed accurate as another reviewer noted, but so is kind and engaging. At least, that is how I found the host Kim, who is the hostess during your stay. The rooms are modest in size but well appointed and comfy with a wonderful balcony to enjoy a morning coffee and watch the city wake up. The highlight of each morning was the breakfast together. The breakfast is served at 9 sharp and is served with the other guests. It makes for not only a delicious breakfast, but Kim uses it as an opportunity to help direct, guide, and suggest places nearby that meet your interests. This is great as it means you get insider tips and ways to optimize your stay by taking the guesswork out--particularly when you have a small window for activities (we were only there for a few days). In the evenings, Kim hosts a happy hour which includes helping guests secure reservations and dinner plans settled before you go. This is not just a recommendation by Kim--she actively calls and secures the spots and confirms them with you. True concierge service! Setting aside the wonderful host and the rooms, the location is superb. We were there over the weekend, and there is a delightful Saturday market literally ACROSS the street filled with vendors of all varieties. Warming: it is easy to spend. ;) The entirety of the downtown is merely a block away with shops, restaurants, and bars galore along with the cruises, sports fishing, and recreation just a short walk down the road. Bottom line: I adored this place and have already recommended it to friends and family here in Durham (where we live) and beyond. If you can swing it (it is worth every penny) and want to give yourself or your partner a weekend to remember, I cannot more strongly recommend the Inn on Turner.

The staff were friendly and prompt to greet us upon check-in; the lobby is large and tidy. The rooms are well kept and spacious. We chose a suite room with a water view and weren't disappointed. It was super nice with a full kitchen and large living room in addition to a spacious room and bathroom. Beautiful views and nice size balconies round out the experience. Only two things quickly to note: 1) The balconies are lovely, but we had a weird experience with little finches getting caught between the concrete of the balcony edge and the gap between the clear plexiglass. We ended up rescuing 2 birds in the same morning, so hoping that doesn't happen frequently. Poor birds. 2) The breakfast is a bit sparse and comes off as somewhat cheap. Lovely to have it delivered to your room, but the portions were super tiny and pretty sparse overall. I would've preferred a traditional continental breakfast. Minor quibble but ultimately does matter in guest satisfaction overall. Overall a really nice hotel, good location and very clear with a few quirks.

There were times a just a few years ago that we were very unhappy with management and the board. Timeshares were not a priority at all to them. Over the past several years a lot of great changes have been made and I am back a very happy owner and would not consider selling my units. We have a new board and a new president that takes this property and timeshares serious again, even better than it was many years ago. They have hired a new management company with a really good property manager (Matt Bruner) that is on top of the issues that come up. With the property being about 30+ years old, there are a lot of issues, but Matt stays on top of them. We use to have some security issues, but since they added secure gates along with on-site security, that problem is almost non-existent. The board has made some great changes to get the timeshares in much better shape along with getting them financially stable. We are not completely there yet, but we are really getting close. They have a great plan and are aggressively implementing it. Thank you Greg, Matt, and the rest of the board and volunteers.

They refused to give us more toilet paper for a 7 day stay and told us they only set us up for a few days and to go to food lion down the street and purchase it ourselves. Sounds like a health code violation to me! They are crazy about wearing bracelets with the hotel logo on it, kicked us out of the pool when my husband had them on the beach in the bag. Do they really think someone wants to sneak in to this rundown establishment? The pool is nothing to be desired. The toaster was broken and called 3x for a replacement and never received it. We were charged 169.00 for a cleaning fee and were told there was sand in the hotel room and crumbs on the floor. I have never ever had to launder towels, provide my own toilet paper or be inspection clean after a hotel stay. Victor the GM is rude, condescending and could not have been nastier when questioned about anything regarding the stay. There really was no good answer for the charge, which will be disputed. XOXO Victor keep doing what you are doing, looks like you are doing a great job! Promotion in the future.

The outside pool is quite large and they also have an inside pool. The size of the outside pool took me off guard a bit. Most Beach properties that I have stayed at pool was not as quite as large and this one also has a slide. It always had plenty of chairs available and they have a lot of them with umbrellas. There is a small food stand but no alcoholic beverage for the adults; however, you can bring your own light snacks in a cooler. The walk to the beach is not far and the Atlantic Ocean is very soothing. However I highly suggest you to bring some beach shoes because the sand has small shells in it that could hurt small feet. The local area has beautiful restaurants, and the price point is $$. There are local grocery stores and drug store so anything you want or need or didn't bring when you left home, you're able to get here. My cousin secured the condo. The condo we stayed in was a two bedroom and it was beautifully decorated, very clean, and very spacious. The owner of this condominium was amazing, communication was on point, no issues whatsoever. I loved the location of this condo because it was closer to the pool and ramp to the beach. If you're looking for an amazing vacation for the whole family I highly recommend going here.

The most reasonable rates I found were at the Oceanana. Several good things to say about this facility. There is a lot of open space for your beach enjoyment. Rocking chairs are there for you to enjoy. There's an outdoor pool, a couple of picnic areas, shuffleboard courts, a children's play area, access to the beach, and a free fishing pass at their pier. There's also plenty of access to water hoses to wash the sand off you or your stuff, and a clothesline with clothespins to hang your wet suits or towels. Instead of your standard mini soaps and shampoos, there are wall-mounted containers for soap, shampoo, and conditioner. I also found the staff I dealt with to be friendly. I booked the economy room. Two double beds, shower, cable tv, mini-fridge, free wifi. No frills decor, nothing fancy. Quiet surroundings. Had a small problem with the tv, and maintenance addressed it quickly. For a price that's about half of what the chains wanted, it was a good stay for me. I wouldn't suggest the economy rooms for families or business professionals needing a place to meet with clients or employees. If you are ok with a basic no-frills room or if you are there for the fishing opportunities, it's a good option.

It is like taking a step back to a simpler time when you arrive, though appearances might be a little disconcerting initially if you have never stated in such a place (by that I mean an older motel, obviously this is not a new fancy highrise Sheraton), it's an affordable family oriented resort with private beach, pool, playground, and a community feel. You can talk easily to the other guests and maybe meet people who also built cherished memories here when they were kids, too. We stayed in a suite, but not one of the renovated rooms. Overall it was definitely like going back in time, but we had everything we needed. They do the best they can with what they have, everyone there works very hard. The entire motel and property looks exactly the same as it did 40 years ago. There is a family feel to it, can't go wrong with the pool and the private beach and pier right there. Watermelon and ice cream parties on Wednesday and Saturday, it's nice to see families coming together for those activities. Every morning there is a continental breakfast outside, with items like hard boiled eggs, cheese cubes, little powdered donuts, packaged pastries and little sausage biscuits. Fruit cups, yogurts, bananas. Toast, bagels, cereal, coffee, juices. They should put up some wires atop the shelter areas to deter seagulls from menacing guests. This is not a Sheraton or upscale place, but for a few nights at the ocean you can't beat the price and the family memories made are priceless. All rooms are non-smoking, I only wish it was 100% non smoking property, people smoking at the pool and out front of their rooms was not good. Also, the room was pretty clean but the old musty carpet always felt damp. There was some gunk on the wall next to one of the beds. We were given 4 bath towels a day for 4 of us, but really could have used double that because we were at the beach every morning, then at the pool, and back at the pool at night. We brought our own pool towels of course but with 2 kids we needed more bath towels. They also never gave us more soap. We ended up using the palmolive dish soap for washing up. If you are into that retro feel, not intimidated by "first appearancees", don't mind a very simplistic room, you will not mind this motel.
