    Beachfront Vacationing With Breathtaking Views... The Carolina Resort Motel is where friends and family come to make memories that last a lifetime. After a long day of activity or relaxing at the beach, splash around in our heated pool or enjoy a cookout in our courtyard. In addition to comfort and genuine hospitality, the Carolina offers dining and entertainment right next door at Pirates Patio and Galley, with shopping and amusements of the Old Orchard Beach Pier only a short walk away. Offering oceanfront and ocean view rooms just a step away from the Atlantic Ocean, the Carolina Resort Motel aims to meet the needs of those seeking family vacation time, a romantic getaway, or a place to rest during business travel. We have recently updated/renovated many of our rooms and all include kitchen facilities, cable TV, and telephones.

    Sorry the original owners were immaculate!
    It seems like the children of Claudette and Claire ( two sisters) don’t really care about the reviews they are getting! Their Mothers are rolling in their graves right now! Back in the day, it was a beautiful place to stay! We haven’t stayed in over twenty years and it’s the…

    Avoid at all costs...
    First, I'll admit it was our fault we didn't look at a room before booking, lesson learned. The rooms are old, like 1960s decor and worse, dirty and smelly. Too late we discovered there is no air conditioning in the rooms. We happened to be visiting during a heat wave, so it…

    DO NOT STAY HERE
    This is the worst place ever! No AC and no fans. Just a ceiling fan. It’s so outdated and it looks like no one has cleaned in months. We had to go to Walmart and buy fans so we didn’t die of heat exhaustion when it was 95 degrees outside. Cops were here kicking people out of the…

    Mold! Don't do it!
    This was our first time staying and I promise it will be our last. We arrived in late June in hopes of having a nice stay on the beach. Upon entering our room we were immediately struck with a strong smell of mold and mildew. After looking around the room we noticed the…

    Very dated but not a bad value
    I stayed one night in August. It was a last minute trip and I needed a room close to where my family was staying. It WAS a great price for the one night. There is NO AC (biggest drawback for me). Fortunately I didn't need it. The pool was very clean. The rooms are very dated,…

    "Rooms in front facing the beach look a little nicer and have private patio."
    "Good location for the beach"
    "All the rooms are only feet from the water, so they are all good!"
    "FYI. Our rooms did not have A/C. The first time it wasn't that hot and we didn't notice. The second stay it was HOT and it was stuffy. We brought our own fan and made it bearable. Stay in the end units or ones at the beach end of the courtyard. The courtyard echos and is usually filled with families - so try to stay out of the first floor courtyard rooms."
    "Ocean Front rooms have the best views for the price."
