They informed us that the office would be closed however gave us our room number and said door would be left unlocked and key would be inside. We were instructed to just check in the next morning. The Sand Dollar is... more

I am sorry that this person did not tell us about the ants outside their room. We have a pest control person come once a month and would have called them take care of the pest. The ants were outside and we are at the beach, sorry. It just takes one person to spill a drink are drop a crumb...

My husband and I celebrated our tenth anniversary during the Seafood Festival (first weekend of October). Upon reading good reviews of the SDMotel, we booked a 2 night stay. We really enjoyed the motel, loved talking with the owners and getting their advice on the area. We ate at Four Corners Diner which was delicious! We had a relaxing day... more

We just came home today from a four night stay at The Sand Dollar Motel in Atlantic Beach, NC. This is our second trip to this motel and we enjoyed it as much this year as we did last year. It is a very quiet and clean motel. The owners are terrific people and they make you feel at home.... more

For starters, this hotel is very reasonably priced. When I saw the price, I was expecting a grungy, dirty, old hotel. Instead I was met with a simple yet cute hotel and an extremely well-kept room with many small touches of home like the decorations in the bathroom and the chairs outdoors. I highly recommend this hotel if you're looking... more

Absolutely do NOT stay here. I made reservations about 10 days out from our vacation. Less than 24 hours later I had to cancel them. The owner said that we could not cancel since it was within 2 weeks of the reservations. I could understand if I called 1 or 2 days before our reservations to cancel, but I was... more

My best friend and I recently had guest (her brother and his girlfriend ) in from Spartanburg SC. They rarely get the opportunity to visit the beach. We contacted the Sanddollar and could not have been more pleased. It is a small ,quaint, immaculately kept motel. I have been going to Atlantic Beach for as long as I can remember... more

The rates were not what I was quoted. The picture on the internet is not what you are getting! I don't know what room they showed, but no room I saw looked like that. They tell you they don't do room service everyday, what they meant was they do room service after you leave. They were the cheapest place to... more

I am sorry that this person had a problem with their stay at The Sand Dollar. We try our very best to make all our guest comfortable and have a nice vacation. The picture on the internet is Room 1, we have several different rooms sizes and layouts and can not put them all on the internet. When a person...
