"Nice property. You even get breakfast delivered to your room."

Compass by Margaritaville Beaufort

"The location was great. We did not have the most friendly welcome when we arrived but throughout our 3 night stay it improved. Appreciate the ability to rent golf carts on sight and they had a great breakfast with friendly breakfast staff."

Beaufort Hotel NC

10/10 Excellent

"The view, the shuttle service and restaurant."

Hotel Alice At Atlantic Beach

8/10 Good

"The front desk staff were fantastic and very helpful! The housekeeping staff were terrible. We asked for stay over service for all 5 days of our stay. We received service on one day out of the five despite our repeated requests to the front desk and housekeeping. One day the lady came into our room as we were leaving. I specifically asked her to make the bed. Despite telling us she would make the bed and walking towards it, the bed was not made when we returned to the room. One day they even put a do not disturb sign on our door. A lady from the front desk accompanied us to our room on that day. Our do not disturb sign was hanging on the inside of our room. The sign on the outside of the door was from another room. The front desk person said housekeeping does those kinds of things all the time."
