Oceanside Accommodations - Efficiency Room with Cooking

Most of the Outer Banks keeps its guests well connected to all the perceived luxuries of modern life.... Walmart, Target, fast food drive thrus, etc. But an hour's drive south from Nags Head, along a serene strip of sand nestled between the Pamlico Sound and the Atlantic Ocean will deliver you to the apex of the Outer Banks, to Cape Hatteras. Think... old Cape Cod fifty plus years ago. We harbor the last real beaches, expansive and uncrowded, without corporate influence. About a mile away is the Cape Hatteras lighthouse, the tallest lighthouse in America. She has been protecting mariners traversing the rough waters beyond our shores for over a hundred years. Most locals are descendants of those who were on English ships seeking to discover new lands that fell victim to the treacherous seas and shipwrecked before the lighthouse was built. Once you arrive here, you'll discover why they never left. Prepare yourself to meet a few.

The iconic oceanfront Outer Banks Motel, on Cape Hatteras, a.k.a. 'Buxton', was built right on family land by one of those locals almost 70 years ago. And continues to be owned and operated by that very local and her family. The OBM continues its tradition of old sea village hospitality but with modern upgrades and advancements to make our guests feel at home here. Having a planned out itinerary is not a necessity... just grab your beach towel, flip flops and a book and walk a few feet to the beach. Close your eyes and ponder the smell of salty air, sun and sea mist grazing your face, the gentle sound of the waves breaking on the beach, while digging your toes in the warm sand while watching the sun rise and set over the water. All that stress just melts away.

Every one of the OBMs' cottages and efficiency rooms are unique. Some are directly on the beach, some have excellent views. All are just feet from the beach. We have a saltwater pool and hot tub located between the main office and the beach. There's a coin operated washer and dryer and ice machine in the back of the main office building located near the fish cleaning station. We provide you with everything you need, and nothing you don't. The local grocery store, many restaurants, surf shops and tackle shops are not further than a mile away.
This is our only ground floor oceanside unit. There's a four season porch with rocker and has a partial view of the ocean. It has a full kitchen with a dining table that seats four people. Leather lazy boy.

Great people, lovely efficiency

We had a wonderful stay at this motel. The staff were incredibly courteous, kind, and helpful, answering all our questions about the accommodations and the surrounding area. The efficiency apartment was spotless and welcoming, and the beds were comfortable for a restful night's sleep.Additionally, the beach is just a short drive away—only a couple of miles. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a cozy and convenient place to stay
