OBX is the perfect place to unwind and relax while escaping the real world! You can clear your mind and refresh your soul. I always feel so relaxed in the Outer Banks!

I grew up visiting this beach in the summers and staying in this motel when I was a little girl myself, because it was one of my grandmothers favorite places to stay and now I get to share the same experience with my daughter!

5/5 - Excellent
