Top Carteret County Hotel Reviews

Compass by Margaritaville Beaufort

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely room with a fabulous view. It was quiet and we did not hear any noise from the other guests. The food and drinks were delicious. All of the staff were friendly and helpful. We will definitely go back again."

Crystal Coast Oceanfront Hotel

8/10 Good

"Beautiful property and the beach access is incredible! The only things that weren’t great was the main restaurant was closed when we got there at 1:30pm (this was on Sunday) and the tiki bar had closed at 12pm (which was the posted times so no worries there), we were just bummed we couldn’t get lunch on the property. The only other thing was the bed was pretty uncomfortable but the amenities outweigh that for us! We will be returning for sure!"

Beaufort Harbour Suites

10/10 Excellent

"This was our first time staying in a unique place like this. It was great and comfortable. The only thing to remember is if you are not arriving by 7, make other arrangements for key pick up - I missed that and fortunately we arrive right at 7. I was thrilled there was an elevator as well. Very clean and felt like home."

Oceanview Inn

10/10 Excellent

"The room was vey spacious and very clean. Bed was comfortable. Air worked very well and the staff was very nice and courteous. The only small suggestion is to to a sign going into the tub 🛀 toilet 🚽 area needs a watch your step because there is difference in the height of the floors and I tripped 4 times going in there and someone could get hurt if they were to fall. Other than that it’s a great place to stay. It’s within walking distance to the beach 🏖️ definitely will be back 🌊💕🌈"
