A great little motel on the beach

It was a nice location on the beach. We went for a car show and it was a perfect location. Nothing fancy but solid place to stay for a night or two. Friendly staff!
Wilson, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very nice older hotel that is in the process of being up dated. They are doing a great job. Great view from 3rd floor rooms. Beds are very comfortable and rooms a quiet.

So-so

Very basic, think Motel 6 with a great view. A/C was great, pillows were great, bed decent. TV service good, ice machine great. Outdated, sandy floors, smashed bug on the wall, left over bottles of shampoo for general use...that was weird, plastic cups had faulty bottoms, way too much light coming into the room at night. Who uses white cloth shades for light reduction? Pool was out of commission, looks like for a while now. Toilet sized for kids and short women, not men with "dangly" things. Nice office staff. Not sure I'd return to this location. Not sure who provided the online rating but disagree with it's rating determination.

Loved the blue heron! We stay here every time we’re in obx! It is always fabulous! The staff is amazing only thing that kinda sucked was the pool was closed for maintenance. Other than that it was truly amazing as always

8/10 Very good

The indoor pool and hotub was definitely a game changer. The motel is slowly deteriorating and you see that in places but it had no bearing on the quality of our stay. I will definitely be coming back.

Sunrise mornings, waves crashing all night... doesn't get much better. Sufficiently stocked kitchen if you want to eat in.

Blue Heron's location was convenient, good price, staff was pleasant, room was very clean and beach front. Not the newest hotel but that was part of the charm. We would go back again.

Room 9 view and room 5 review

So it’s an older place. The stove needed updating (room 5 had a 1970 something stove that the burners barely worked on unless on high, which then set the smoke detector off. Also the oven would never heat up to use!) The beds are only full sized double beds and aren’t that comfortable. The rooms were very clean though. Room 9 was very nice but it was not an efficiency. It had a nice balcony and the best ocean view for the second floor. The hotel is smoke free but my neighbors smoked a bunch of weed and it stunk up our rooms. The indoor pool is small and is kept locked with key card. It is heated and the hot tub is large and works well.

Spacious, clean room with a balcony that provided a great ocean view. Highly recommend!

2/10 Poor

A most unpleasant stay

We arrived and were greeted with no one in the front office. I had to check in on a kiosk with someone on a screen. When that didn’t work an actual live person finally came and helped. Once we got our room keys and went in we found a very, very dirty room with extremely small, uncomfortable beds. The bathroom was so dirty we had to go out to buy Clorox wipes and clean it ourselves. That night we pulled back the blanket on the bed to find the sheet dirty and hair on the fitted sheet. There were pen marks in several places and it appeared the housecleaning simply flipped the used fitted sheet over as it was on inside out. The room was non smoking, but other guests in rooms right next to ours were smoking a lot, which prevented us from enjoying the disgusting seats on the public walkway outside our room. This hotel was more expensive than staying in a nice Hampton Inn that gives offers a free breakfast. The only thing this hotel offered for free was ice.

4/10 Fair

Cold and tired

I was put in a room with no heat. When I tried to get in the hot shower, the steam set off the smoke alarm 😞 the attendant came out and I told him it was cold and no heat was in the room but he offered no alternative I was a late arrival and so tired that I crawled under the covers and went to sleep but it was so cold when I got up and a hot shower just set off the alarm again. I was very disappointed in the accommodation and work down here all the time but I won’t book here again.

Joseph, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Room was very clean and comfortable. Loved the indoor hot tub. Warmest heated pool I’ve ever been in. My only complaint is the loud fan in the pool area. Had to shout to talk. Would have spent more time there if it weren’t for the fan. Bonus is that they waved the pet fee during Christmas. We will use hotel again in the future.

10/10 Exceptional

we loved the property! although a little older, and the walk up the stairs to the third floor was a little tiring. when we looked out from the balcony on to the ocean and seashore we were mesmerized by the beauty. Sound of the waves coming to shore, was and is so peaceful and centering. Large room, comfortable bed and just so peaceful and beautiful wow. WE didn't want to leave.

Economy Room Stay

The economy room is right over the office by the road and not connected to the rest of the motel. It was very comfortable and affordable, though not the most picturesque location. The hot tub was wonderful in the winter. Access to the beach was very easy.
