★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Bambi Drumheller · Oct 2025

We have stayed twice. The first time was in the cottages. They were okay. They are older so you can't expect modern etc. You'll share a connecting door with whoever is in the cottage next to you but it does lock. However, the walls are thin so be prepared to hear everything and it was moldy(beach life). We decided this time to stay in the hotel to see if it was any better and we were only staying one night before going to our condo. This will for sure be the last time. Hotel room is spacious but the sheets were dirty, the towels were dirty, there was hair in the shower and a hair clip in the floor. Clearly not cleaned well. The positive, they allow pets, across from Jeanette's Pier , right next to Sam and Omies and the people are really nice that own it.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Kevin Miller · Oct 2025

We stayed at the Sea Horse Inn for 3 days recently. It’s fine. It is what I expected for what I paid. I’m not sure what some of these reviewers here are expecting. This is one of the cheapest properties in all of the OBX. Don’t expect Club Med. For us the worst thing was the couch. It was filthy. Should be cleaned or replaced. We covered it with an extra blanket from the room. The bed was comfy and bedding was clean. The bathroom was clean albeit a bit beaten up. The shower had acceptable pressure and hot water. Tip; pay a little extra for a kitchenette room. You get a little cottage on the ground floor with parking right in front. Also, they have a nice little shaded sitting area right outside the door. We used this area a lot. Being across the street from Cahoon’s market is a huge bonu

Positive: Location Negative: Great location and mostly ok. However, they really need to hire more than 1 housekeeper especially during peak season. It has the potential to be a great place.

★★★★☆ 4.0 Jackie Gronsky · Sep 2025

We booked here just for a place to lay our heads a few extra days before our beach house was ready for the week. We rented one of the rooms and honestly for the price it was just what we expected. We did have to use the virtual check-in, it went smoothly. The owner was on site which was good because both our keys needed re-programmed due to us having them close to our phones earlier that day. All in all I would stay again. The only real downfall was we were on the top floor & although the view was nice, my knees were feeling it by the last day. Location wise it was awesome, walking distance to the pier, ice cream and even a few options for lunch or dinner.

★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Bethany Thompson · Aug 2025

We booked a last-minute stay at the Seahorse Motel because the price was reasonable compared to others in the area. We were in town for a friend’s birthday and planned to spend very little time at the motel since our friend had rented a house nearby. While we were at the party, we received over five missed calls from the front desk in a span of about 10 minutes. When I tried calling back, no one answered. About 30 minutes later, we received more calls, demanding to know when we’d be checking in, even though I had already completed the online check-in and noted our estimated arrival time between 4:30 and 5 PM. When we arrived around 5, the front desk staff was rude and seemed annoyed. Despite me stating multiple times that we did not bring pets, we were repeatedly questioned about a pet f
