The lock to the balcony didn’t work, the elevator was out, and there was hair in the bathtub that wasn’t mine. There was work being done on scaffolding in front of my room while I was there. Other than that, the view was beautiful and the location convenient.

Weekend Getaway!

I can’t say enough good things about this location! We choose last second to do a weekend trip in OBX && just booked a hotel on the way, pricing was amazing for last second (during off season). Clean rooms, comfy beds, hairdryers in the room. Pool was super nice. Really enjoyed having the bar inside the hotel restaurant. Bartended is hands down amazing and I loved her company and the vibe she gave off to everyone at the bar. Def try the “gobstopper” shot if you stay here. Will definitely stay here again when we visit OBX.

Okay for a short stay.

Front desk staff were very pleasant and accommodating. Room was very basic, smelled strongly of cleaning products. Bed was like sleeping on a concrete floor. Bathroom was adequate and clean. Restaurant staff were wonderful, food was great. Pool looked nice although we didn’t have time to try it out. Unfortunate that they have great staff, location and restaurant but need serious work on the outdated rooms.
