The hotel prides itself on the wonderful breakfast it prepares and serves, it’s fit for a king.
The hotels location is in walking distance to shops and restaurants.
Unbeknownst to us our room was on the third floor accessible up a narrow staircase, a bit of a challenge for a 83 yr. old couple.
Fabulous hospitality! Relaxing, welcoming environment. The owner ( trained chef) offered delicious 5 star meals. The owners have thought of everything needed to enjoy a relaxing vacation .
Our stay was lovely. The Inn is beautiful and very clean. The Innkeepers were very nice and took care of everything so our stay was comfortable. The town of Manteo was so much fun to explore.
This bed and breakfast was lovely. I enjoyed the happy hours, ambiance and warmth of this property. The gourmet breakfasts were amazing. Fresh baked goods daily and coffee/teas/water was a nice touch. I enjoyed sitting on the 3/4 wrap porch and it also offered two fire pits, and plenty of outside seating. Simply put very inviting bed and breakfast.
Room was very clean. Staff was very friendly and very accommodating for a last minute decision to stay and unsure if I would need to stay another night due to a road closing and undetermined reopening. The staff tried to help me figure the status of the road closing keeping me from my home. Very kind
Dan and Tonianare fantasticnhosts, they talkedbtonyou and were easily accessible for questions.
The meals were 5 star and Tonia makes them from scratch! The daily cookies were fantastic treats to grab as you went out the door for the day.
Great place to stay for a concert or shopping trip
We had a fabulous stay! Check in was quick and easy. There are always homemade goodies, wine and cheese trays out and available. Very comfortable lobby/living room set up. Our rooms were comfortable and quiet. We stayed for a concert and there isn't much parking space at the inn but it isn't a super busy street to find something close by. Loved interacting with the staff and other guests. The breakfast was amazing!
This is a very sweet historic bed and breakfast. The house is cozy and they were very accommodating. As you can imagine for an old home, everything is not fully updated, but it was very comfortable and clean. The walls are thin so you can hear movement of other guests a little. Breakfast was very nice, and they have lovely sittings areas inside and outside.

Wonderful stay
The White Doe Inn is an excellent place to stay. My wife and I are already planning our next visit back! The rooms are dated but comfortable and the meals and snacks are yummy. We especially appreciated the breakfast and the daily happy hour. The beds are comfortable but the wifi is pretty bad, which I understand is a problem all over the area so that was ok. We really felt good about being there under the new owners, who were really kind people. We had a minor issue with our room and mentioned to the owners and their response was even better than we thought. We were already planning on returning, but how the owners responded to our concerns guaranteed a return trip.
The White Doe Inn, nestled in the charming town of Manteo, offers an exceptional bed and breakfast experience that truly delights. From the moment you arrive, innkeepers Dave and Tonia make you feel like cherished guests, providing attentive and personalized service that anticipates every need. Their culinary prowess is a highlight, with breakfasts that are nothing short of gourmet. Each morning brings a new, delicious creation, meticulously prepared and beautifully presented, showcasing fresh, high-quality ingredients. Beyond breakfast, the inn often surprises with delightful evening treats, further enhancing the culinary journey.
The property itself is a haven of relaxation and luxury, boasting an array of amenities that cater to comfort and indulgence. Guests can unwind in elegantly appointed rooms, each uniquely decorated and equipped with modern conveniences. The common areas, from cozy parlors to inviting outdoor spaces, provide ample opportunities for relaxation and socializing. Stepping outside the inn, the quaintness of Manteo beckons. Its historic streets, charming shops, and waterfront views create a picturesque backdrop for leisurely strolls and exploration, perfectly complementing the tranquil elegance of the White Doe Inn.
Lovely stay in quiet surroundings. Accommodating staff. Wonderful breakfast, served on patio overlooking gardens. Comfortable bed. A perfect stay in every respect.
Everything from the facility to the grounds, the stay, the food, the housekeeping...everything was excellent. The head inn keeper, Lisa was a joy to talk to and was very professional.
I would recommend this property to everyone.
