Come relax with us in quaint and beautiful historic Downtown Manteo, at the heart of North Carolina's Outer Banks, where the porches are wide, the picket fences are white, and Southern charm and hospitality abound. The Roanoke Island Inn is the only one of the Manteo, NC hotels that features both water views and nearly 1.5 acres of serene gardens, all within just a few steps of the town’s waterfront boardwalk, shops and restaurants.

Our large breezeway porch overlooking the harbor of Shallowbag Bay and Roanoke Marshes Lighthouse is the perfect place for rocking the day away and enjoying the salt air. Our enchanting garden creates a tranquil escape to enjoy a good book while listening to the relaxing trickle of the koi pond or for a conversation in the shade of the folly.

Our guests enjoy the privacy of outside entrances and the comfort of sitting areas in the lobby. They appreciate friendly staff, a complimentary self-serve continental breakfast, a well-stocked 24/7 innkeepers pantry and free use of our bicycles. Our nightly rentals include six king or queen rooms with water or garden views along with child- and pet-friendly family suites and bungalows and an off-site historic cottage.
