Powells Point accommodation from AU$93

Perfect romantic getaway and the perfect place during “off peak” times when the area and beach aren’t crawling with people.

Overall, the place is dated but the rooms have all been updated. Our room was clean and the beds were comfortable. The breakfast was great. From previous reviews, it seems they have added to the breakfast. There were breakfast sandwiches, waffles, oats, muffins, bagels, boiled eggs, cereal, coffee, juices, milk. It was a great start to the day before heading to the beach. We loved the gazebo area and ate several meals there. The access to the beach was perfect. Parking is tight and one night after returning from dinner and mini golf, there were no spots in any of the lots. The staff ended up directing us to an area designated as no parking and allowed us to park assuring us that our vehicle would not be towed. The only other issue would be the laundry room. There was only one working washer. It did make it difficult to try to wash clothes but we managed by often doing laundry late at night. Overall, we would stay here again. It was family friendly. The staff were all so kind. The place was clean. The direct beach access was fantastic.

Our third year at Mia’s (now an annual family tradition!) and it never disappoints. Everything about Mia’s makes for the ideal Outer Banks experience: - Clean, safe, & centrally located. - Laid-back motel-style stay with just the right “frills” like in-room kitchens, beach view options, etc. - Nearby beach, dining, boating, grocery, 4x4, fishing, hang gliding, etc. - Clean, safe, & friendly environment. - VERY pet friendly Every year, we notice new improvements to the property and guest experience (whether it’s new decking on the oceanfront rooms, fresh paint, clever and adorable branded beach & “makeup” towels, improved waterproofing in the walk-in showers, new appliances, etc.). The owners and management are obviously constantly taking feedback and working to maintain and improve the property as a long-term business. Sean, Valerie, & Leo are all great to deal with each year. The whole team (including housekeeping who unfortunately I don’t know the names of) are always accommodating and helpful, and I can’t say enough about the comfort and convenience of staying here. Top tips: Enter this property with the right mindset (for example: expect friendly responsive service when you request extra coffee/toiletries if needed, not a bell hop/butler waiting on your every need), grab groceries to enjoy the comfort of your own kitchen, walk to Whalebone for fresh seafood and Cahoons Market for any groceries you forgot, and ENJOY THE BEACH! Thanks, Mia’s! See you again soon!
