Wachapreague Inn
Wachapregue inn is a no frills motel. Out of the way and near fishing (they cater to the fisherman). Clean and neat, across the street from a really nice restaurant and bar. Quiet and quaint village. We enjoyed our stay!

Simple and easy accommodations. Nothing fancy, but if you're looking just for a place to sleep and then be out & about this is an excellent choice. Much more reasonable rates than other places in the area (looking at you major hotel chains!). We stopped for the night on our way to the Outer Banks and both of us said we'd like to come back when to explore when we had more time to do so!

Delightful stop on the Eastern Shore. A basic little motel but in a lovely tiny town not too far off the beaten path. Excellent restaurant with a view of the marsh and oyster beds is just across the street. Staff was very friendly. Breakfast nothing special but the free arrival drink (beer or soda in a can) was a pleasant little perk. A nice change from a chain hotel.

Good value with caveats
Friendly staff and clean rooms. Breakfast is coffee and pastries so I question whether that is a real breakfast. The trash can outside our door attracted a lot of flies and of course they got into our room. It took two days to empty it. Overall good value within a charming town that has character and is walkable and good for biking.

Fun stay in Wachapreague
Great place to stay on the Eastern Shore. The place is old but nicely taken care of. The local restaurant was delicious. The staff was great. My only complaint was how hard the mattress was on the bed. I would not hesitate to stay there again.

I was quite satisfied. The building style is typical roadside motel, with rooms facing a central parking area. My room was spotlessly clean and well maintained. The front desk person (perhaps she is the owner?) was friendly and helpful.

I love the feel of this hotel and it's location. It feels like a fishing village.
Don't let it's age fool you. All rooms are modern and clean. I would recommend this hotel to anyone.

Clean, comfortable, charming
We needed a place to stay for a last minute trip and chose the Wachapreague Inn because it was reasonably priced and close to where we needed to be. It is definitely old school, but was absolutely charming and super clean. We were very comfortable and the staff (including the hotel lobby cat) was friendly and helpful. Will definitely stay here again.

Very small town on Eastern Shore, VA
It must be years since I stayed in a motel where you drive up to your room. Motel dated. Rooms dated. Checkin and out easy breezy.

This place has small town charm, NO hidden fees. Pet Fee was $33. Although it is old, I like it as a breath of fresh air from big hotel chains.

The Inn is right on the coast in an adorable small town. Plenty of dining and shopping options just 6 miles away.
Continental breakfast and a cute coffee shop less than 1/2 a block away that serves breakfast and lunch.
Very retro clean, comfortable and affordable motel, so if you’re looking for high end luxury this isn’t for you ☺️
