We recently spent 3 days at the Dolphin Lane Motel and had an absolute blast! The motel is older, that's true, but David, the friendly and helpful proprietor, has recently remodeled the bathrooms. The housekeeper was friendly and did a great job- we cooked breakfasts and lunches there and cleaned up after ourselves because we're not barbarians. We stayed on... More

We showed up at Carolina Beach without a reservation. After checking rates at another motel, we happened across this motel. Very affordable. We were able to get the last oceanfront room. Although it was on the first floor, we still enjoyed the partially obstructed view. Very convenient to everything. Parking was an issue but probably not as bad as it... More

Mattresses were hard and there was a light outside every room that you could not get away from at night while you were trying... More

The staff was very friendly and accomodating when making our reservations. However, upon arrival we found it to be dirty and out of date. The parking lot was crowded and badly laid out. The rooms were exceptionally... More

We rented the 1 bd duplex so we wouldn't have to rent so many rooms (we had 4 adults and 3 children). The bathroom was dirty with a used bar of soap in the shower. I had to clean it because they didn't send anyone until the next afternoon. Then our car was blocked in and I told the night... More
