Place is very outdated, stains on bedding& bathtub, bugs on ceiling, sticky floor, no table on room. Pool was good. Location was excellent, walking distance to the beach.

My husband and I needed a quick trip away for the Labor Day weekend. The property was neat and tidy and just what we wanted. The pool was relaxing and the office staff prompt and helpful. It is also close to many restaurants, stores and the beach. We will be staying here again.

It’s an older motel but is in a great location about 2 blocks from the beach. It has a nice pool area with a kiddie pool and a larger pool. There is a refrigerator and microwave and coffee pot in the room. We did have some minor flooding under the door when a heavy thunderstorm came up but a few towels stuffed under the door stopped the water. The staff were very friendly and helpful. It was surprisingly quiet for being on the main drag. The furniture is a bit dated and the curtains were a little on the thin side so the lights in the parking lot could be a bit bright at times. Overall, it was a decent stay and I would stay here again. It isn’t the Hilton or Hyatt but the rates aren’t Hilton or Hyatt either. Nice mom & pop motel in a good location is my main assessment

We booked 2 rooms for 2 days. There was a very strong odor of dog urine in the office. The owner/ receptionist had 3 dogs running around in there. The rooms were reasonably clean. However there were used false eyelashes and a couple of press on nails left on top of the microwave. The first day went well. The second day we went to the pool. There was an electrical outlet on the wall that my daughter plugged her phone charger into. There were no signs stating not to use outlet. The owner/ receptionist came out and started screaming at my daughter for using it. My daughter repeatedly apologized but the woman continued screaming, cursing and verbally abusing my daughter in front of my grandchildren and other motel guests called her stupid, an idiot, a moron ect. Continued screaming as my daughter was walking away. The woman was wanting a fight and we would not argue with her. She was screaming “I’ll have you kicked out of here” I gathered up my grandchildren and our belongings, went back to the room and started to pack up our stuff to leave. We were embarrassed and confused as to the owners behavior and no longer felt comfortable or safe staying there.While packing up I lifted the bed covers and discovered a bed bug ( took pictures)upon further inspection I found more , which would explain the bites that I woke up with on my legs. We were there for my grandsons birthday. Needless to say the owners hysterical, unprofessional volatile meltdown put a damper on the celebration.

Great place. The staff, location and family atmosphere makes Captains Cove the perfect location for an old fashioned family beach vacation. After 15 years of visiting it feels like staying with friends and not just a hotel. I’ll be back soon!
