Great for a one night stay at the coast! Wish we were able to stay longer the moment we opened the door. Very quaint, but still super spacious and cozy. Loved the ocean view

I am in love with Ester Lee Motel I have stayed Three times this year set my parents once my grandfather came and stayed once this year and my dad and his parents have been staying there since the 70s. The property is just in amazing spot view and really enjoy the staff and just the area walkable. They’re friendliness for my ESA dog. They’re just amazing. I would stay there every weekend if I could get away with it, but it is a little bit of a drive just under three hours for me but so worth that drive

The property is well maintained. It has a classic 1940's/1950's look and feel which brings back memories. You have a large view of the ocean and sitting in front of the view is mesmerizing. And a plus is the kitchen.

The side walks were dangerous, not painted in yellow like steps so my mom fell and I almost fell during the daylight. Plus the side walk is skiny for one person only. Parking lot needs better lighting too. Positives: view was great, price great and people friendly.

The room was dirty, bathroom area had been used and not cleaned before we arrived. No staff to fix the problem. Previous guest garbage in the kitchen, portable heater as the heat in the room did not work. The place is beautiful to look at, but in severe need of staff, apparently. When I made this known to the office, was told there is no one to fix the oversights

An Amazing Family experience in an Amazing Cottage
Absolutely love the Ester Lee Motel. We stayed in one of the cottages for a weekend and honestly I wish we had stayed longer. The view was breathtaking, and the classic feel and look of the cottages added to the joy. Plenty of space for My wife and I plus an exited 13 yesr old. The only downfall was the bed wasnt that comfortable, I woke up each morning with a sore back.

We have been going here for years. We always have a nice time there. We like that they have stoves in their cabins, so we don't have to eat out all the time. They are clean and comfortable.
