About this property

Welcome to Ocean Pines Motel

Ocean Pines Motel is a modest beachfront property featuring 1- and 2-bedroom suites equipped with kitchens. Some suites offer sea views, while all provide free WiFi, catering to guests who prefer the convenience of self-catering combined with easy access to the beach. The motel emphasizes a quiet, small-scale atmosphere with only a few rooms, making it suitable for travelers looking for a low-key retreat rather than a full-service resort experience.

Though the motel does not offer on-site dining, a fitness center, or a pool, its location on Melbourne Beach provides direct beach access and proximity to local amenities. Several restaurants and a grocery store can be reached within a short drive, and Melbourne Orlando International Airport is just 26 minutes away by car, making arrivals and departures fairly convenient. Free parking is available on site, adding to the property's practical appeal.

Guests consistently highlight the motel’s quiet, friendly atmosphere and the helpfulness of the hosts. Praise often centers on the beach access and the intimate setting, though some note the rooms show signs of age and could benefit from updates. This balance suggests that guests prioritizing location and a home-like feel may appreciate the Ocean Pines Motel more than those seeking modern or extensive facilities.

The surrounding area offers a range of outdoor activities, from exploring the Archie Carr National Wildlife Refuge, known for its sea turtle habitat and guided walks, to fishing, surfing, and scuba diving at Sebastian Inlet State Park. Downtown Melbourne is accessible for additional dining and shopping options, making this property a practical base for visitors interested in both natural attractions and local town life.

Cozy Lil spot We really enjoyed our stay Nice people Steps from the beach Fishing friendly , Good fishing Pet friendly Small guest groups/ uncrowded Gazebo under the seagrapes is awesome , But I can't find a way to load pictures of the 50# Black tip shark I caught this morning 9/27/23 . However the neighbor next door (Terry) who helped me release it might still have a picture of it.

The views are amazing! The beach access couldn’t have been better and we had the whole beach to ourselves. No big groups to fight through for a good spot. The rooms are a bit outdated but this is not a new fancy resort. This is a smaller privately owned inn. Good location. Right in the middle between good fishing spots and town.

We found this place on google. Just what we was looking for. Call, spoke with owner. Great rates, right on the ocean. Super nice people. Loved every minute of our two day stay. One thing please don't let the front of the motel make you not try them. They have alot of natural plants out front growing. Enjoy our photos you'll see what I mean.

This was a lovely little in. Small, secluded, simple, and quiet. The road behind can be a little noisy but really not bad. The yard and gazebo are nice. The ocean view and access are great. Awesome beach with shells, crabs, pelicans, ibises, sand, plants, and fish. Small inn means few neighbors and the neighborhood is quiet too. The inn is more like staying at a friend's house than a motel. It is quaint, oddly decorated, and while tidy and clean, it is not the hyper sanitary clean you expect at bigger hotels or resorts. Our room did have a strong smell like burnt plastic that persisted through the stay but we bought air freshener to spritz when we were there. The coffee machine, fridge, microwave, and fully stocked kitchen is awesome nice. Aside from the smell, I was pleased.

Very quiet joint. Only has 5 rooms but in each room has a full kitchen with a separate living room area with a full bed and futon. Oceanfront which to me is the best just expect to pay alot more per week. This place was $725 a week, taxes included, on the "on season" which ends on the 15th of April. Prices will drop after that. There is no pool here, and no bedbugs which is always a plus. I would recommend.

My mum has been going for year and she has loved it. As a birthday present she got me a room last year and I can not wait to go back. The other people were so nice and the beach was beautiful with nice people all around. If you can try to stay here do it. They are dog friendly and your dog will like it just as much as you.

The location suites our needs at a reasonable price. Beach access, cozy courtyard, and Sandy is wonderful. our only gripe is the shower in our room has very little pressure.

Sandy and Barbara are fantastic hostesses! Very accommodating, will even get you something at the store if they're heading that way. The place could use some work, but it's quite, almost secluded, and a ramp all the way to the beach if you're in a wheelchair. Someday, I'd like to stop again.
