We had a wonderful and relaxing stay at the Cutty Sark. The rooms are a little worn but very clean, the staff was friendly, and there was easy access to the beach. It was busy during our stay but everyone was quiet and respectful in the evenings. The lawn care did start a little early one morning. The outdoor seating and views were our favorite part, our kids loved it so much they are asking to go again next year.

The views are outstanding. Staff was friendly. The rooms in the older building have been remodeled nicely and are large. Walls are a little thin as I could hear my neighbor snoring. Generally, I wasn't overly upset about it.

My husband and I recently celebrated our 40th wedding anniversary with a six-night stay at the Cutty Sark Motel. We enjoyed peaceful walks along Long Sands Beach under perfect weather, but what made this trip truly unforgettable was meeting Faye, our spirited housekeeper. Faye made our anniversary extra special with her delightful towel art! When we arrived in our room the first night, we were greeted by two swans artfully crafted from towels, their necks forming a heart, with a delicate flower nestled between their beaks. It was such a sweet surprise! Another day, we walked in to find a chic little dog lounging on our bed, complete with sunglasses perched on its adorable face—all made from towels, of course! Finally, when we met Faye in person, her warm and charismatic personality instantly shone through. I couldn’t help but thank her with an enthusiastic hug. She brought so much joy and whimsy to our stay, making our anniversary celebration all the more delightful!

We loved this property. The view was amazing, the staff was great. The beach is steps away, the hotel provides tables, chairs right off the rooms to enjoy the view and ocean breeze. It's a short walk to restaurants and to town for shopping.

This was the 4th year we stayed at The Cuttysark for our summer vacation. It’s always very clean, and the staff is very nice. I love being able to sit on the front lawn, and be right next to the ocean.
