"My wife and I really enjoyed our stay at The Tranquil House Inn in Manteo while we explored the Outer Banks. The rooms and service were great, and the location right on the water in downtown Manteo was perfect. Manteo has a charming downtown that offers plenty of shops and attractions without feeling too touristy. We also really enjoyed the light breakfast offerings each morning and the staff were so friendly and helpful."

Tar Heel Motel

9.3 km from North Carolina Aquarium at Roanoke Island

"Our room had pretty textured walls and beautiful artwork. The furnishings were also high quality. Its a 3 minute walk to the beach, and within a few minutes drive of a mini-mart, ice cream place, and some restaurants. I couldn't figure out when checkout time was, but another guest told me 11am. Also the doors have # codes on them so you can check in without seeing anyone. But the insides of the doors don't have slide locks, so we were worried about someone being able to enter if they found out...

Top North Carolina Aquarium at Roanoke Island Hotel Reviews

Shutters on the Banks

8/10 Good

"The room was adequate for a short stay, but there were several things that could be improved. The bathroom needed attention, as the toilet felt loose and moved when used. While it was nice that laundry facilities were available on-site, guests need to bring quarters to use them. I also wish there had been an outdoor area or designated space to air-dry clothes, but that was not available. The room appeared to be vacuumed, but the carpet felt old and not particularly clean, making me wonder how often it is actually deep-cleaned. Personally, it left me feeling a bit uncomfortable. The kitchenette and room setup were sufficient for a brief stay, but I would not recommend it for longer stays or for anyone planning to do much cooking. On the positive side, the breakfast was decent and offered a variety of options, which we appreciated. The staff was also friendly and helpful. Overall, the hotel was acceptable for a short two-night stay, but it did not exceed expectations."

Mia's Boutique Hotel

8/10 Good

"The room was very clean, minimal items / no carpet was nice. Room had nice tv and mini split. The bathroom was dated but clean. Fine for a one night stop. Cons would be the room was very bright at night because of the parking lot lights even with the curtains drawn, the room had a strong smell of cleaning products, the bathroom had some kind of dehumidifier mechanism that was very loud. Also due to it being motel style the walls would shake when neighbors slammed the doors. Over all it was what we expected from the online photos and descriptions"

SandSpur Ocean Cottages

10/10 Excellent

"This is our second time staying at the Sand Spur and we love it. The staff is helpful and kind. The place is clean and well maintained for being right on the beach. Location is excellent! Just walk bare feet to the beach. Pool is small but just what you need. The only thing I would recommend is bring some extra kitchen utensils/cup, etc. the kitchen has a couple of pots and pans but few dishes. We also brought our own cleaning sponge. Beds are comfy and linens clean. Strong AC and fans. Very family oriented!"
