Search Inns in Shackleford Banks

"If you plan to spend most of your time on the beach, fishing, exploring nearby attractions, and/or enjoying restaurants and taverns, and you’re looking for budget friendly motel to sleep and bathe, this is a fantastic choice! Has all the essentials (clean linens, comfortable beds/pillows, hot shower, A/C, microwave, coffee maker, free parking) without the extras that cost you more and hold you back from experiencing the area. The people who run this motel are incredibly nice and friendly! After crossing the bridge, it’s left/east of the Downtown Atlantic Beach Boardwalk, making it a wonderful location; it’s opposite direction from the bigger resorts/hotels (meaning less traffic, less crowds and competition for good beach/fishing spots, and more relaxed surroundings). It’s literal actual walking distance to the Beach (I carried a chair, bag, and cooler from my room to the beach multiple times per day). Additional information: I visited for the 2025 4th of July weekend (when the actual 4th fell on a Friday), so I expect my experience was about as busy as the general area ever gets. I was able to sit on the beach and watch both Atlantic Beach & Morehead City Fireworks at the same time."

"It was ok "

"Beautiful place great location"

"Greatest staff I have ever encountered. I travel a lot for work & I stay in places all across this country. Not the newest place but we were here for the Beach. We will be coming back see you next year."

"Enjoyed the stay and very nice staff. "

"It was a great stay. They forgot to deliver our breakfast one morning but they made it right and brought it our room right away. "

"The staff was so friendly and helpful. The property was clean and well maintained. The beachfront balcony provided stunning views."

"We loved the 24-hour coffee service. The front desk staff were very friendly and professional. We had muffins one morning; they were fresh. The pool was delightful. It would be nice to have umbrellas at the tables by the pool."

"This place was exactly what we needed. Somewhere to lay our heads at night because we were spending our days out and about. Nothing fancy, but we weren’t looking for fancy. Palm Suites is unique in that each room is individually owned. Those that run the from desk have nothing to do with the condition of the rooms. Only complaint is the box springs on both beds in our room were awful. Every time you moved they were extremely loud Sharon ran the day shift,Marshall the night shift. Both were very helpful. If you are looking for a no frills place to stay at the beach and are on a budget, I’d take the chance that you get a good room. We’ll stay here again"
