"The property was easy to find but the room took a minute. We had to drive around and figure out where the pool was and what it was called. A map would make it easier to find. The condo was gorgeous and very spacious. The second bedroom air wasn’t working and it was VERY hot in that room. I called on our second day to get it fixed and no one ever called me back or came to try and fix it. My son ended up sleeping terribly because of the heat. The check out procedure and what needs to be done is...

"2 nd time we stayed here. We enjoy our stay , love that you walk over the dune path , and your at the ocean . We even extended our stay an extra day . Desk staff were so nice and friendly. Love the biscuits and gravy at breakfast!!"

Ocean Sands Beach Boutique Inn - Stay At the Beach

"The room was very clean, staff was extremely helpful, the cookies and popcorn at 5pm were a good treat. 10 out of 10 will recommend"

Sea Ranch Resort

10/10 Excellent

"We had third floor with ocean view and it was spectacular! We had a beautiful view from the living area as well as our bed! The kitchen was perfect and we were able to do a load of laundry, which was very helpful on our extended rode trip! We ate breakfast and a couple of dinners in the bistro. The crab bisque was five star. I had grilled shrimp on a garden salad with the house basil vinaigrette and it was exceptional. Breakfast was very good too. The only down side was it was stormy and apparently that knocked out the elevators so we had to lug all our stuff down three flights of stairs on check out. PS: The waitress in the bistro was a sweetheart!"

Hilton Garden Inn Outer Banks/Kitty Hawk

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful facility. Loved our view. Would stay again for sure"

The Sanderling

8/10 Good

"The Sanderling is a nice resort. It sits on the beach and has a great view of the sun rise in the mornings. The staff is very friendly. They will happily setup chairs and umbrellas on the beach for you. The resort is a bit dated. The fencing around the property is aged. The room was very nice and clean. There are a lot of dead bugs and spiders everywhere. The balcony sliding door has dead bugs in the slider which could use a clean up. We did not use the amenities like the pool, hot tub, or gym. There are two close by restaurants next door and across the street. The drinks at the outdoor bar were a bit outrageous. One virgin pina colada and one margarita was $40 with tip. Overall a nice resort but a bit overpriced in my opinion."

Hilton Vacation Club Beachwoods Kitty Hawk

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic property with lodge/game room/BBQ/picnic area, fitness room, indoor/outdoor pool, small lake with paddle boats, 3 walking trails. Rooms extremely spacious, well equipped, and maintained. You need a several day stay to appreciate it fully."
