Our stay at Silver Lake was wonderful, Hanna & John were perfect hosts and have done a great job with renovating both the hotel and The Jolly Roger! The room was spacious and well appointed with all needs met. The newly added rockers and side tables on the porch were enjoyable and the resort Bicycles made getting around a fun experience.

This is a very sweet historic bed and breakfast. The house is cozy and they were very accommodating. As you can imagine for an old home, everything is not fully updated, but it was very comfortable and clean. The walls are thin so you can hear movement of other guests a little. Breakfast was very nice, and they have lovely sittings areas inside and outside.

This is a great little beach hotel at a resonable price. No, it's not a Hilton but I would rather stay at this hotel. The room I had was two queens with a small kitchenette. The room was very clean and decent size. I would deffinetly stay here again.

My recent stay at the Hyatt Place Virginia Beach Oceanfront from July 13 to 16 was nothing short of spectacular! This hotel truly set the bar high for all future stays.
From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with exceptional service, particularly the valet team, which was incredibly efficient and accommodating. The rain limited our outdoor activities, but we didn’t mind one bit because the comfort of our room made it an enjoyable stay.

Overall we had an amazing experience! The room was clean and comfortable. The amenities were great! The walls are a bit thin. We could hear the couple next to us arguing and fighting a few nights in a row. Other than tuat it was great! If we are ever in the area again i would hope Sea Scape has availability for us 😊

The hotel was perfect and spacious. The only thing was when it rained 🌧 🙃 we got wet to the entrance to our room because of the location...maybe adding a overhang to help with not getting wet.

Saltaire Cottages was a great place to stay for a few days. It was cleaned and had what we needed for those few days. When you drive up it seems to be a little outdated. The inside of our cottage had been redone and it was fine. The location is great, right across the street with their own beach access. The beaches were not so crowded on any day that you felt like you were right on top of each other.

The location is great just a short walk to the Manteo river front with all the stores and restaurants. We visited the aquarium which we highly recommend. The room was very spacious and had all the amenities you would want. It was very comfortable and nicely decorated.
