Buccaneer Motel

A classic Beach Road motel in Kitty Hawk, an easy walk to the sand

Kitty Hawk, NC

About

Buccaneer Motel sits on N Virginia Dare Trail — the Beach Road corridor that runs the length of Kitty Hawk, Kill Devil Hills, and Nags Head — putting guests within a short walk or drive of the Atlantic and the shops, restaurants, and piers strung along this stretch of the northern Outer Banks. Going by the name, this is a classic motel-style property built for travelers who want a straightforward place to sleep between beach days rather than a resort experience.

The location puts Kitty Hawk's own beach accesses close at hand, and it's a short drive to the Wright Brothers National Memorial in Kill Devil Hills and Jockey's Ridge State Park in Nags Head, so a stay here can anchor visits across the whole northern beaches corridor. Kitty Hawk tends to run a bit quieter than the busier commercial stretches of its neighboring towns, which suits travelers who want easy access to the beach and the main corridor without being in the thick of it.

Address: 3512 N Virginia Dare Trail, Kitty Hawk, NC 27949
Good fit for: budget-minded beach trips, short stays, shoulder-season visits
Nearby: Kitty Hawk beach accesses, Wright Brothers National Memorial, Jockey's Ridge State Park

I absolutely love this place! Literally right across from the beach. The parking lot is a little tight but what isn't at the beach? The pool was sparkling clean.. I love how they have a kool deck instead of concrete so you don't burn your feet when walking around the pool. The owners were very helpful and friendly.. I also loved that they had tile in the rooms as carpet would be nasty. Easier to clean up all the sand. We stayed in room #23 and it was very spacious even the tub. Housekeeping was great also! We will definitely be staying at the buccaneer again! Thanks for everything!

Awesome motel and owner. It is an older motel and outdated quite a bit. Although it is outdated it is 'homey'. The rooms are outdated with paneling walls and older appliances with an 'older smell' to them. But, again, very comfortable and very clean. The beach access is private across the street. It is stairs which go that are rather steep and I would worry about younger children falling back into the roadway. The parking is tight, but that's to be expected. There is a 3 ft pool (all the way across), basketball goal, hammock, picnic area, wooden playground and a deck beside the pool. The lower level rooms have a sandy area outside each door which I thought was nice for children to play in. The owner is super sweet and made us feel welcome. This is a drug and alcohol free motel, great for families...don't have to worry about the partying teenagers. I will be back, my kind of place. I just hate we have to leave so soon....

Pulling into the parking lot, I wasn't expecting much. However my opinion quickly shifted. The room was very clean and much bigger than I would have thought. Tile floor inside which I could imagine makes it much easier to clean after guests have had their feet in the sand all day. A nice pool and even a basketball hoop in the parking lot. At under $100/night in summer, though after Labor Day, was more than reasonable. Not to mention the location, right across from the beach! Would definitely recommend and hope to stay again next year.

Great affordable place to stay. We got a 3 bedroom efficiency for the 5 of us (2adults, 3 kids). The owners were nice and friendly and the maid service was on point. Nothing at all to complain about. All around great place to stay.

Referred by Susan from the See Sea Motel. Its very accommodating free WiFi, great clean pool and the beach is right across the street. Also has a place to cook. Only could stay two nights but will be reserving again next year! Really affordable and terrific staff plus room service.
