Scarborough Inn was charming & conveniently located. The room was not your typical corporate hotel room. It had a charming iron headboard w old picture prints on the wall & interesting lamps. It was like staying with a local. It had the modern elements too - a large shower w handrails - that I loved - in a generously sized bathroom. In the living area there was a sink & mirror, microwave, mini frig, & surprisingly an air fryer that I learned to used and loved. There was a cozy sitting area w cable TV and a table made from a pedal powered sewing machine like my grandmother used! There were hooks AND towel rack in bath, a coat rack by the door & hanging rack for clorhes w overhead shelf. PLUS there were windows all around to let the sun shine in! Almost forgot the wonderful front porch with chairs.
It was walking distance to the boardwalk by the sound to historic downtown where there is a small marina, lighthouse, historic replica of first colonists ship, historical museum, walking tour of Colonial settlement and many interesting places to shop and eat! Just a short drive on the island is the maritime museum, aquarium, Elizabethan gardens & the Lost Colony theater!
This was a treasure trove of discoveries.
ALSO, a short drive across sound is the beach to enjoy to your hearts content. A walk in the AM on the beach I saw a dolphin pod swimming by and pelicans diving for food. On the outer banks one can explore from Currituck lighthouse on north banks to taking the ferry across to Ocracoke Island w a Pirates museum in the southern most part of banks.

The location of the hotel is great. Just cross the street to the pier and the beach. The man at the desk was very nice and helpful when we had to check in late.

This was actually on Roanoke Island about a quarter of a mile from Fort Raleigh Historical Site and Visitor Center, Elizabeth Gardens, and the Lost Colony. I wasn't really there long enough to see or do much, but Manteo appears to have plenty of restaurants and other attractions. Where I stayed was directly across Roanoke Sound from Nags Head (I could even see it from my rental) which is just a short drive away. I'd highly recommend this to anyone looking to relax at the coast and explore!

The town was LOVLEY.
The town was LOVLEY. The history is rich and the people were very nice. The whole area is beautiful. There are quirky and unique shops surrounding the waterfront. The food for such a small town had a surprising variety, PLEASE eat at Poor Richard's! A sandwich from them with a view of Albemarle Sound after a day at the Lost Colony site was the perfect afternoon! Getting around is easy, walking is suggested downtown and the historic sites are a very short drive from the waterfront. The Lost Colony site, is free but the Elizabethethan Gardens had a fee. To me it was money well spent. There is also a Freedman's Colony that was a safe haven for freed African Americans after the Civil War. So much to see in such a small area!

Whenever we checked into the Manteo Hotel, the ac was leaking water out into the floor and the room had a bad musty odor to it so we asked to be moved to a different room. They put us in a different room only to be worse than the first. The floors were filthy. They had not been swept or mopped. There was several piles of dog hair underneath the furniture. I had to wipe the floors with a towel to have a clean path for us to walk on. There was a dirty towel left on the back of the bathroom door from the previous person. There was clean towels and the sheets appeared to be clean. Hopefully they were. There is no phone in room to communicate with front desk. They want you to text them. I tried texting them to tell them about the condition of the room and the front desk lady told me she would tell her manager and she would get right back with me. She never returned my text or call. Tried several times again but no one would get back with me. Very poor communication! We had a King kitchenette but it only has a small fridge,microwave and a 2 top burner on the countertop beside the same sink you use to brush your teeth, do your hair and ect. I don’t complain unless it’s pretty bad. We just expect a clean room. The pics I’m showing is the dog hair and the towel I used to clean the floor.

We loved being there for the opening of this year's The Lost Colony at the Waterside Theater. It was a delightful surprise to find that it was also the weekend of Dare Days, and we enjoyed walking through the artists' booths and galleries, listening to the live music, and the presentation by the member of the Aquarium staff who had a display about sharks in children's area. We ran into and enjoyed catching up with some old and new friends. We had a huge and delicious supper at Shaddai, went to see Casablanca at the Pioneer Theater (the oldest independently owned theater in the country and newly renovated), and ended the day singing along with a great couple of performers in the bar in front of Poor Richard's sandwich shop, where we also made some more new friends. Fran's Front Porch helped us start each day of our visit with nourishing pastries, coffee, and hot tea.

Very historical and scenic area.
Very historical and scenic area. Quiet town with many sites, restaurants, pubs and places to visit...Surrounded by the expansive waterways and protected from the ocean by the Outer Banks, the island views are impressive...very clean air with no unpleasant "low-tide" smells that you can get in other areas sometimes...

Mentio is a beautiful place to rest and relax and sightsee when you can check out all the lighthouses even if you have to take the ferry it will be worth it enjoy your everyday stay even if it's only for a weekend got to love it I know we do 👍
Property was nice, close to everything in Manteo with ease of access to Nags Head, Kitty Hawk and Kill Devil Hills attractions. Also super easy to get to Rodanthe/Buxton/Hatteras. Staff was super friendly and accommodating, especially the lady the checked us in. Loved her! Everything was clean and fresh in the room, and loved staying in this area, we’ve stayed all over the place down there. Wifi was excellent. Honestly, the staff truly made the stay! Lots of families were there while we were there.
It is a absolutely beautiful location. The back of the house with the beautiful sound and inlet view is peaceful, relaxing and quiet. You would never know you were in the heart of Manteo. My son was getting married at the Roanoke Island Festival Park and this was the perfect home to rent--so close and convenient. The inside is decorated to perfection and is comfortable and equipped with everything you would need. A definite place to consider when renting.
The location was great for all area attractions. The property itself was well kept and clean. The attention to detail and customer needs was top of the line. Pet friendly is a plus.
The highlight of our trip was meeting the innkeeper, Pam. From the moment we booked til the time we left, my wife and I knew we had made a friend. Pam knows the area and was extremely attentive.
We highly recommend this property for anyone looking to explore the Outer Banks.
I booked and paid online for one night. I checked out the next morning, the lady at the front desk confirmed receipt of our text during check out and the old us we were all set. She then explained that she had “clicked the wrong thing on the computer “, but her boss would fix it. THEY ENDED UP CHARGING US AN EXTRA $140, for no reason. YOU HAF ALREADY PAID FOR THE ROM ONLINE!!! I have been calling the hotel since and have yet to receive a call back!!
People directly outside rooms on sidewalks drinking alcohol & smoking. No wifi or ice. Blinds to sidewalk only part block outside view and spotlights/light. Refrigerator not cooling. Bed ok no top sheet hope comforter washed each stay. Bugs in bathroom. Keurig coffee maker not working properly. Not much will never stay there again and suggest others consider it a last choice. Should have paid more for another hotel!
The staff was so accommodating - they checked multiple times a day to see if we needed anything, if we were comfortable, etc. The view from our room was amazing. And it was within walking distance to our favorite Manteo restaurant!. The rooms are newly renovated - completely re-done. Bed was very comfortable. Towels were very plush and soft.
Easy to find. Close to all this historic sites we wanted to visit on Roanoke Island. Plenty of parking. Room was clean but dated. The interior of the hotel needs serious updating and improving but is kept clean. Beds were comfortable but soft.
No staff-video checkin. Older hotel, flea market furnishings so eclectic. It was clean and functional. Bed wasn’t great but not bad. Exactly what we expected for the price and provided what we were liking for. A clean place to sleep.
This was our first visit to the Outer Banks. The location of the Inn in Manteo is beautiful. Away from the hustle of the tourism in the area yet close enough to enjoy all the OBX has to offer.
Very nice and cozy little hotel. We reserved a room but got an appartment. Very clean and comfortable. Lovely Lobby and the blue colour of the hotel makes it even friendlier.
The Heart of Manteo was located very conveniently to areas of interest. The reception staff was friendly and the rooms were clean. I thought it was very nice.
