The room was clean and quiet. There was coffee in the lobby and the restaurant,The Seaside Bistro,served a delicious breakfast and had outside seating available. The beach was a short walk and an indoor pool was inviting. The shower didn’t have shampoo and conditioner dispensers and and the bathroom only had two round small bars of soap to use.The entrance to the hotel didn’t have automatic doors and also had an incline to bring your luggage and belongings in.

Beautiful direct, oceanfront view from second floor condo. Room was clean. Staff was very nice, cheery and helpful. Wonderful stay. The only downfall was we needed more living room seating and the couch was really uncomfortable to sit on, and when pulled out to a bed.

I loved this place. From checking in which were fast and the people there were so nice. The pool were great. I went to the bistro for music but the band didn’t show but the restaurant outside area were beautiful and right on the beach. Our room were perfect. Clean with plenty of supplies. The balcony were spacious. Situated in the middle of plenty of restaurants. Great location. Plenty of parking out front and well lit at night. They need a game room or something for the kids because it was a lot of families there for at least a week. Otherwise a great place

Quiet, ocean front. Room was kind of dirty with nasty mirrors and sand on the top of the dresser and in the drawers. Bed and bathroom was clean. Price of the room didn't reflect what it was worth, way overpriced when the reservation was made through Expedia.

Anniversary Trip

This was our first time visiting OBX, we really enjoyed ourselves. We loved the feel of it not being a tourist town. We stayed oceanfront so the views were amazing and we loved the ease of walking right out to the ocean. Our condo was very clean, staff was super friendly and the Bistro was delicious, we ordered dinner 2 nights in a row and they didn’t disappoint at all. If I had anything negative to say it would be the bed was super firm, as in SUPER FIRM, however I also understand some people like a firm bed, for my Husband and I it was way to hard for our liking, besides that everything else was great!
