Great location
We stayed here because we are playing in a 2 day disc golf tournament. We love this beachfront hotel. Right across the street is the Kill Devil Grill, and Swellsa Brewing is a short 2 block walk away. We love the location. It is also minutes from the Casey Logan disc golf course.

Weekend getaway with beautiful views
We came for a family weekend getaway. The room looked recently renovated and was clean. It’s a great location being steps from the beach, a restaurant across the street and brewery less than a 3 minute walk. Our girls loved watching the sunrise, look for beach shells and of course continental breakfast which included a waffle machine. We would definitely return and recommend to others.

The people at the front desk were very friendly, knowledgeable, and very nice. The room was very nice except for the bedspread had hair left on it upon going to the front desk. They immediately jumped into action and changed the sheets again again and apologized up-and-down overall is was a good trip And we will be booking with them again

Wonderful!
Great place to stay! Very friendly staff, especially Berik, who saw my request at check in & graciously moved us to a room on the first floor. When my husband asked about a nice restaurant since it was our Anniversary, Berik not only gave us recommendations, but also put a congratulatory message on the board in front of the Inn. As for our room, it was beautifully decorated, very clean, & comfortable. Breakfast was also nice & had several items to choose from. Although it was too cold & windy to relax at the beach, it was beautiful to look at & located right behind the building. We will definitely stay here again!

Cosy and clean
Checkin was quick. Breakfast bar was more than i expected. It was off season and we had a snow storm. Room was cosy, sheets and towels are nice and clean smelling. Overall it a great place on the beach in an older hotel.
