Awesome. My son and I got a room during the off season on the spur of the moment and had a view of the ocean. Rooms were great. Amenities were great. And service was great. We stayed here years ago with my family during the season and were glad to see nothing's changed.

I needed to find a last minute place to stay before taking the ferry off of Hatteras. I booked this online based on what I could find online. The staff was excellent and the rooms were good. Nothing fancy, but a good rate, solid room and great staff that was close to everything in Buxton.

Every thing was great. I was there off season but staff was great and nice. Referred to local restaurants and the Orange Bloosom bakery they referred looks like a dive but glad they referred it bc it was awesome! The place was clean and that is what matters the most. Plus very reasonable!

Stayed here while traveling to Cape Hatteras for work. The hotel was clean & the staff was friendly. Located close to the lighthouse & beach access. Wish the WiFi connection had been better, I had some trouble sending emails. But, for the price, I was definitely pleased. Would love to revisit during warmer months.

If you are looking for a resort getaway spot, keep looking. If you want a cozy love nest, Nope. But if you are down at Hatteras to fish, surf, or as I did go out on a day trip boat ride to photograph sea birds the Hatteras Island Inn is a perfect place. Cheap prices. Easy to find.

I went into this hotel to get a room this morning, I stood in the lobby for 30 minutes before I saw any person come by. The phone was ringing and ringing and ringing.

After arriving past midnight by the emergency Stumpy Point Ferry, it was a great joy to see the lights on and the Open 24 Hours sign. We had tried without success to call other locations for a reservation - all were closed (makes some sense - late at night, off season and no road access). It was a pleasant surprise... More
