Tar Heel Motel

Whalebone, 0.9 km from Whalebone Junction

"Our room had pretty textured walls and beautiful artwork. The furnishings were also high quality. Its a 3 minute walk to the beach, and within a few minutes drive of a mini-mart, ice cream place, and some restaurants. I couldn't figure out when checkout time was, but another guest told me 11am. Also the doors have # codes on them so you can check in without seeing anyone. But the insides of the doors don't have slide locks, so we were worried about someone being able to enter if they found out...

"My wife and I really enjoyed our stay at The Tranquil House Inn in Manteo while we explored the Outer Banks. The rooms and service were great, and the location right on the water in downtown Manteo was perfect. Manteo has a charming downtown that offers plenty of shops and attractions without feeling too touristy. We also really enjoyed the light breakfast offerings each morning and the staff were so friendly and helpful."

Seahorse Inn and Cottages

6/10 Okay

"Definitely showing it's age. Very basic accommodations. It works in a pinch."

Surf Side Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This is a delightful beach side hotel. Our 4th floor room with balcony facing the ocean was superb. The hotel supplies beach towels and chairs to the guests. Wine and cheese from 5-6 pm and fresh cookies in the lobby at 8 pm. Its a smaller property, so if you forget something in the room, it is not a trek to get it. It's near Jannette's Pier if you enjoy fishing off a pier and very near Manteo and Bodie Lighthouse. A real gem. Highly recommend."

Tar Heel Motel

4/10 Poor

"Our room was pretty good. The bed linens and beds seemed to be okay. But if you walked across the floor barefooted, the bottom of your feet were black. The hot water took forever to become warm and never got really hot. The ice machine is open for people to get the ice out with their hands if they wanted or whatever (not a sanitary ice machine.) However, we were only going to be there one night so we were able to sleep and shower w/o problem. The cleaning staff the morning we were leaving was very pleasant and helpful as we had left some stuff in the room and she flagged us down as we were leaving to come back and check to make sure we had everything."

SandSpur Ocean Cottages

10/10 Excellent

"This is our second time staying at the Sand Spur and we love it. The staff is helpful and kind. The place is clean and well maintained for being right on the beach. Location is excellent! Just walk bare feet to the beach. Pool is small but just what you need. The only thing I would recommend is bring some extra kitchen utensils/cup, etc. the kitchen has a couple of pots and pans but few dishes. We also brought our own cleaning sponge. Beds are comfy and linens clean. Strong AC and fans. Very family oriented!"

The First Colony Inn

6/10 Okay

"Good bones, but needs a refresh.. The staff here are incredibly welcoming and the location is absolutely perfect for getting around. However, the hotel itself is really starting to show its age. The room felt outdated, and could definitely use some renovations. Great potential, it just needs a little TLC!"
