Heart of Manteo Motor Lodge

8/10 Good

"Ubicacion"

Shutters on the Banks

10/10 Excellent

"10/10 recommend this hotel. The staff is super friendly, the location is absolutely fantastic to anything you could want to do in OBX. The room was all we needed plus some. We loved the indoor pool and hot tub. Location to walk up over the dune and be on the beach was perfect! Will definitely stay there again!!!"

John Yancey Oceanfront Inn

10/10 Excellent

"My family and I loved staying here! The room was clean and smelled great when we got there. The air conditioning was running and kept the room cool our entire stay. We were on the first floor and loved the sliding glass door that led straight out to the beach. There was a broom in the closet that definitely came in handy after bringing all the sand back into the room. The breakfast was delicious. There were a lot more options than I have seen at other hotels, although I would have loved a different variety of fruit since I have young children and the oranges and apples are not easy to peel. But the kids loved the waffles and there was a great assortment of yogurt and cereals. We did not have to interact with the staff often, but they were pleasant in passing and the check in/check out process was a breeze. The playground for the kids was a godsend because the second day of our stay was so insanely windy we couldn’t enjoy the beach or pool. But we spent a few hours in the sandbox with a fun wooden ship play set and that kept the kids happy and entertained. This spot is also surrounded by fun things to do (we did putt-putt, the Wright Brothers Memorial and Jockey’s Ridge) but there was a lot more we didn’t get to do that was close by. Despite the windy day we had a blast and are already planning to go back again next summer and will definitely be staying here again."
