''you are the best! We have rented for years in Topsail and they never remember us; they always treat us with disdain and suspicion though we have fixed missing latches and window screens and always cleaned thoroughly. At Bluewater, you do the little things we overlook. You are the ultimate in rental agencies....''

''my family and i have been going to bogue shores for 25+ years and because they are in the perfect spot we keep going back. pier for fishing, beach across the street, large pool, area for cookouts, minutes from morehead city, emerald isle, fort macon, and my favorite...captain stacy's fishing center....boardwalk down street, boat dock. excellent vacation spot...''

''This is a family run business that caters to families. My children grew up looking forward to each vacation with the Hollowell's. The rooms are quite comfortable and the location is great. This is not a motel for groups of teens, it is strictly family oriented...''

''Well we are back home after our week stay. This was our 6th year coming there and have always loved every minute there. Already looking forward to next year and of course the dogs are too....''

''A few years ago, my family stayed here, we were driving around, and found it. The rooms really need fixed up and modernized badly. But, it was clean, and the service was excellent. The staff were friendly, and made the entire stay so enjoyable. The restaraunt is awesome. We didn't leave the whole week we were there. We are definetly coming back soon. This motel is very difficult to find on the web though....''

''This hotel hosted the Marine Corps Ball that I attended. Great banquet room. The staff was friendly, and the ocean right behind the hotel was spectacular. I wouldnt mind going back to visit again...''

''we did not want to leave! our kids had a blast too! we will be back next year!...''

''This place is really cute and cozy. It is just blocks from the beach and in the winter it is only $25 per night....''

''Renovation completed end of May, 2007. Budget Inn is no more. Property in now Island Inn of Atlantic Beach and is a beautiful addition to Atlantic Beach. All rooms have designer interiors, tile floors, granite counters, microwave, fridge, hair dryer, coffee maker. Pool is new, parking lot repaved, new everything....''

''I cannot say enough great things about the Sand & Surf Inn. I just stayed there the weekend of July 14th. It was very clean and roomy, but still had that local cozy feel, and only a block from the beach. I fell in love with it, and I will be back soon! The owners were so polite and sweet. The only negative at all I could say is that the AC unit was a bit loud, so bring ear plugs. Other than that, everything was WONDERFUL! Thanks a bunch!...''
